Be Happy Now

By Barbara E. Savin, Clinical Hypnotherapist and Energy Healing Specialist

December 08, 2009 - 3:00PM

Are you still waiting for your circumstances to change before you'll allow yourself to be happy? Do you have preconceived ideas of what would make you happy and refuse to be satisfied until those things happen? The problem is that even once specific things happen in our lives, we're rarely satisfied with them.

The Fundamentals:  Acupuncture

By Christina Kohler, L.Ac., M.S., Staff Acupuncturist

February 04, 2011 - 4:59PM

Acupuncture is a form of alternative medicine that is based on the concept of 12 main energy channels running throughout the body, with each channel corresponding to its own internal organ such as the heart, kidney or liver. The actual energy that runs through these channels is called qi, pronounced “chee,” and is translated as the body’s vital life force. This energy is what keeps all bodily systems functioning properly. When there are blockages in these energetic pathways, the qi cannot flow properly, and it causes the internal organs to become sluggish or pain to result in that particular area.

Energy Healing is based on the principle that our state of well-being is affected by subtle changes in our body's energetic system. Blocked or unbalanced energy can cause illness, depression, distorted perceptions and repressed emotions. Clearing blocked energy restores natural energy flow, resulting in good health and feelings of peace and harmony.

Clinical Hypnotherapy is a safe and effective mind/body therapy designed to optimize wellness. Many of our daily behaviors and emotional responses are triggered by thoughts that we may not be consciously aware of. With hypnotherapy, you achieve a state of deep relaxation wherein you can access subconscious thoughts and replace the unhealthy or destructive ones with those that promote positive habits and healthy changes in the body. This can help create lasting transformation in your life through positive thinking and reinforcement. Guided Imagery techniques, integrated into hypnotherapy, utilize mental images to promote relaxation, adjustments in attitude or behavior and encourage physical healing.
