Unlocking the Ancient Wisdom of Gua Sha

Unlocking the Ancient Wisdom of Gua Sha

Gua sha is rooted in traditional Chinese medicine. Practitioners of this medicine believe that a person’s qi, or energy, must flow unhindered throughout the body so you can feel your best. When qi becomes stagnant, health problems occur. With Gua sha, your acupuncturist uses a smooth-edged tool to gently scrape areas of your body where inflammation or stagnant qi exist to help improve circulation and promote healing. When done correctly, Gua sha can help you unlock radiant skin and achieve holistic well-being. continue reading »

Ignite Your Dreams

“Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influence of the earth.”

~~Henry David Thoreau 

Greetings to all my precious people!!!

April 2024 in the year of the Green Wood Dragon continues to unfold.  We are in the beginning of Spring, the season when the natural world revives and reinvigorates after the colder winter months.  Dormant plants begin to grow again, new seedlings sprout out of the ground and hibernating animals awake.  There is a sense of anticipation as the energy of the Earth awakens to celebrate rebirth and renewal.   continue reading »

How You Can Heal from Within

“People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. 

Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.”

 ~~ Thich Nhat Hanh

Greetings to all my precious people!!

The month of April in the Year of the Dragon has given us pause and reminds us to expect the unexpected.  Earthquakes in Taiwan, followed by 4.8 magnitude temblor shaking the East Coast multiple times and then, the magnificent Solar eclipse this past Monday.

Braised Lentils & Kale with Fried Eggs Recipe

These braised lentils are cooked with tender kale and bathed in a fire-roasted tomato broth with an egg on top to pack in the protein. Microwaveable lentils need just a short time in the pan to finish cooking. If you have cooked or canned lentils on hand, you can use them in their place, but you may have to shave a few minutes off the cooking time so they don’t get too soft. We like how the soft, runny yolk coats the dish. If you want a harder yolk, cover the pan and add 2 or 3 minutes to the cooking time.  continue reading »
