Winter Cleanse

Winter Cleanse

Winter Cleanse…Release, Relax, Reset

Do you just want to feel better and start off the New Year with a jump start? Then now is the time!

Join Ayurveda Wellness Healing in a guided, at-home 7-day Winter Cleanse.
*January 22 – 28, 2017

Kick-Off Conference Call (We ship anywhere)
Wednesday, January 11 at 8pm EST
or
In-person Meeting
Wednesday, January 18 at 6:30pm EST (our office)

Winter is a great time of year for a cleanse but not just a cleanse but one that also helps to rejuvenate the body and mind.

Seasonal cleansing rids our bodies of all sorts of toxins, pollutants, harb chemicals, pesitcides, and any other Ama (toxic residue) that our physical body has accumulated over the holiday period. Cleanses will help to purify and tone the internal organs, cells, and tissues of the body, flushing out impurites that aren’t serving us.

Ask yourself the following quesitons:
* Have you been feeling more sluggish and tired lately
* Is your energy level just isn’t what it used to be
* After you eat, all you want to is take a nap
* Is your thinking as clear and sharp as you’d like
* Do you have a heavy coating on your tongue
* Do you have foul body, breath and/or stool order
* Are you experiencing indigestion and excessive flatulence
* Do you have body aches
* Is your mind foggy

An Ayurvedic cleanse focuses on resetting that digestive fire, allowing it to rest and strengthen. The detoxifying nature also supports the body’s own natural mechanisms to remove built up toxins from the body. It’s a bit like cleaning out the pipes when the drain gets clogged, or hopefully even before the drain gets clogged.

Included in cleanse:
Kick-Off conference call or In-person meeting
6 meals
Cleanse Supplements
Cleansing Tea
Email and/or phone support

Investment: $108.00 (Includes shipping for out of town clients)

**If call date or cleanse dates do not fit your schedule contact us and we will accomodate your schedule.

You Really Can Die of a Broken Heart

Your Bridge to Health; Promoting Optimal Wellness for Body, Mind and Spirit

Your Bridge to Health; Promoting Optimal Wellness for Body, Mind and Spirit

The World Has Lost ‘Bright Lights’ with the passing of ‘Mother-Daughter’ actors Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher. Two strong women known for their resiliency and humor, especially in the face of adversity and mental health issues. May they be together in everlasting peace. Peace to their family and friends. 

A Home in the Meadow – (The tidal beach pictured in this video reminds me of Good Harbor Beach.) 

Sung by Debbie Reynolds in the movie How the West Was Won, now seems a prelude to welcome her ‘home.’ Carrie Fisher died from complications of a heart attack. Her mother, Debbie Reynolds died one day later. While it is has been reported that Debbie Reynolds died from a stroke, dying from a broken heart is a real syndrome, and severe stress can cause the release of stress hormones that elevate blood pressure, constrict blood vessels and contribute to heart attack and stroke.

Dying From a Broken Heart – I first came across this syndrome while working as a registered nurse in cardiac rehab. One of our patients suffered what was believed to be a heart attack that occurred after hearing about the sudden and unexpected loss of their adult child. The patient was found to have clear heart arteries and no heart damage. They were later diagnosed with stress-induced cardiomyopathy.

Broken Heart Syndrome- also called stress-induced cardiomyopathy or takotsubo cardiomyopathy. (Tako tsubo is the Japanese name for octopus traps, which are thought to resemble the lower chamber of the heart.)octopus-trap-172293951725_1

Characteristics of Stress-induced Cardiomyopathy – 

  • Brought on by emotionally stressful events (E.g. the death of a loved one, divorce, break-up, outburst of anger, or even the sudden shock of something positive, such as winning the lottery.)
  • Caused by the reaction to a surge of stress hormones (from an emotionally stressful event.)
  • The heart temporarily enlarges and doesn’t pump well.
  • Women are more likely than men to experience the sudden, intense chest pain.
  • Can lead to severe, short-term heart muscle failure.
  • Broken heart syndrome is usually treatable, with most people making a full recovery within weeks.
  • Irregular heart rhythms and cardiogenic shock can occur, which can be fatal

Heart attack versus broken heart syndrome – In broken heart syndrome, symptoms occur suddenly after extreme emotional or physical stress. Here are some other differences:

  • EKG results are different than that of a person having a heart attack.
  • Blood tests show no signs of heart damage.
  • Tests show no signs of blockages in the coronary arteries.
  • Tests show ballooning and unusual movement of the lower left heart chamber (left ventricle).
  • Recovery time is quick, usually within days or weeks (compared with the recovery time of a month or more for a heart attack.)

Learning ways to deal with stress and our emotions is good for the heart, and can benefit our overall health and well-being.  Talk to your doctor about your risks of heart disease, prevention, and stress management. Contact me if you wish to discuss quick, easy and healthy ways to relax and decrease stress.

Knowledge is Power. Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds continue to help people, even after their passing. Carrie helped many people with her open and frank talk and writing about addiction and bi-polar disease.  And before today, few people may have heard of takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Thank you to these two strong women. Keeping their family, friends and devoted fans in our thoughts and prayers.      ~ Karen

Ring in the New Year with Treetop Yoga Studio!

What a better way to welcome the new year than on your yoga mat!?

In this all levels yoga workshop, we will begin the evening with an opening ceremony, setting our intentions for the year to come and reflecting on what we want to leave behind in 2016.

To make space for all the new year has to offer, we will move through a powerful, energizing and purifying sequence. This workshop will be fun and challenging, yet accessible to all levels as we flow to a soundtrack of musical hits through the decades.  We will conclude the evening with a guided meditation, followed by a glass of  bubbly and a toast to 2017!

The Color Gold = Balance

The Color Gold = Balance

Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC knows the effects color can play into our wellbeing.

Through the lens of Ayurveda the color gold is made up primarily of fire, water and earth but also has a little ether and air. Gold is warm, slightly moist, heavy and stabilizing.

In the mind, the color gold promotes stability and can be beneficial as part of a complete plan to manage anxiety and bi-polar tendencies. It accomplishes this without any sedative side effects. In fact, the color gold is energizing in a manner that promotes endurance rather than a quick high. It uplifts the spirit and helps to transform consciousness, as it promotes greater awareness. In the body, the color gold supports all immune functions. It helps prevent disease and is useful in the management of autoimmune disease.

As you can see from the description, gold is neither very balancing nor very disturbing to any one dosha. It is safe to use by everyone. This makes gold a tridoshic color.” ~ Excerpt from “Healing Your Life, Lessons on the Path of Ayurveda,” by Dr. Marc Halpe

Incorporating gold into your life can be as easy as being in the warmth of the sun, eating honey, wearing gold jewelry, or gold clothing – how about some gold pillows on your furniture?
