Food Donations for the Frederick Food Pantry
It is so nice to reflect on all the things we are thankful for. However, there are plenty of people (even in our own community) who are not as fortunate and even struggle to put food on their tables. As a way to help and give to those in need, Healing Circles Wellness Center is starting a non-perishable food collection. There will be a collection box in the waiting room, and we encourage everyone to take a look in their pantries, or add a few extra food items to their next grocery list and help us give back.

Clinician In The Spotlight:
Please Welcome Our New Massage Therapist,
Tyler Holt, LMT!
Tyler Holt, LMT graduated from The Baltimore School of Massage in 2004 and from Frederick Community College with an A.A in Massage Therapy in 2010. He has been National and State certified since 2005 and in full time practice since that time. Since then he has continued his study in Craniosacral Therapy, Deep Tissue, Myofascial Release, and various forms of Energy Healing. He states that "even after initial training, the real learning continues with each new client you encounter, who are just as unique as the conditions they present."
All levels of training that Tyler has pursued, seek to help the individual in all aspects of their being. Every modality that he offers draws from Indian, Chinese, Native American, and Modern Western theories. Each person can benefit from a combined application of all of these approaches in a way that fits the needs of their daily life.
Tyler's approach to his work is one that allows him to learn and grow with the client. When asked to put his approach to Massage in a few sentences, he says that " My approach to the healing arts is something that fully involves, not only the client, but the practitioner as well.

Integrative Approach to Wellness:
Seasonal Depression
At Healing Circles Wellness Center we believe in the wellness of mind, body. and spirit and offer an integrative approach to treatment. Therapy in collaboration with the following disciplines can be very effective when treating depression.
General information about
Seasonal Depression:
Seasonal depression or seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a mood disorder that occurs at certain times of the year, usually in winter. Often the symptoms begin in the late autumn or winter months and build up slowly. The symptoms of SAD are the same symptoms that occur with other forms of depression. You may notice your appetite increases, you require more sleep, you feel sluggish and unmotivated, you have a loss of interest in your normal activities, and you feel unhappy and/or irritable. For many SAD sufferers the symptoms become more noticeable after the holiday season when daily life returns to a more normal pace.

An Herbalist's Approach
Seasonal mood issues can result from many different scenarios, so an herbalist likes to cover all bases to ensure a happy mood throughout the winter. Many foods, supplements, and herbs can have a profound impact on quality of life through the darker months.

Meditation
When you are feeling depressed lots of difficult emotions can emerge-grief, anger, shame, sadness, worthlessness-your mind may feel like everything has slowed down but that you are not in control. It can be difficult to get up in the morning or enjoy activities that used to bring you joy. Often we then judge ourselves for having low energy and depressive thoughts, which only makes the depression worse. To break this cycle, try introducing a gentle and compassionate mindfulness routine into your day. With mindfulness, we learn to become aware of and know more about our thinking patterns and beliefs.
