Monthly Practice  - Body Tapping 
 
Tis the season to be jolly.  We are heading into the months where many individuals are occupied with shopping, travel, holiday festivities, friends, family and a lot of good food!  For a variety of reasons during the holidays, individuals find their blood pressure on the rise during all these activities.  Can body tapping reduce high blood pressure? For some, the answer is YES.  High blood pressure causes your arteries to harden and makes your heart work harder.  Many individuals have experienced lowering their blood pressure through this simple technique, known as body tapping. With just 15 min a day, using your finger tips, simple tapping techniques can have a dramatic effect on your health.  Tis the season to tip your hat to good times, while you tap. View Video

Featured Spice of the Month - Cinnamon
 
When you think of cinnamon think cassia tree. It is true cinnamon originated in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) and is one of some 4000 varieties of the Laurel tree. Cinnamon is a spice most commonly thought of  for holiday cooking and baking.  Good news for the holiday: Penn State researchers revealed that diets rich in cinnamon can help reduce the body's negative responses to eating high-fat meals. 
 
There are many other healthy benefits to using cinnamon internally and externally.  
Add some spice into your holiday fun with these recipes: 
Make a Difference! 
By helping OM Sanctuary, you help CHANGE LIVES.  
 
We are living in unsustainable times - with stress induced illnesses on the rise and tranquility becoming harder to find. Holistic education can do wonders to reduce this trend; but the cost and accessibility put it out of reach for many people. You can help by making a tax deductible donation to OM Sanctuary to support holistic education scholarships for people in need. Your gift will help someone - a teacher, a caregiver, a victim of domestic violence - to learn personal renewal techniques and integrative lifestyle practices, and will provide a place of quiet solitude to connect with nature. By educating one individual, your gift will also have a ripple effect on the lives of everyone they touch. Imagine the possibilities.
