Season of Gratitude

How is it already November? As the cooler air approaches, it reminds us that the end of the year is drawing near—a perfect time to reflect, recharge and gear up for the holiday season and whatever old man winter has in store for us this year.

Get ready to settle in for a little while because this month, we’re packed with some great insights from our local holistic health professionals. We’re kicking it off with “Exploring the Tooth Meridian System, The Connection Between Oral and Systemic Health,” which delves into the fascinating connection between dental health and our overall well-being. Dr. Yasmin Chebbi explains how oral care can impact the rest of our bodies, showcasing how a holistic approach to dentistry benefits more than just our smiles.

For those navigating the transition of menopause, Dr. Gary Kracoff offers insights into natural remedies that address common symptoms. His piece, “Natural Remedies for Menopause,” highlights the power of rhapontic rhubarb root extract as a safe and effective solution during this life phase.

In “From Patient to Doctor, A Path to Revolutionizing Vision Care,” we learn about the inspiring journey of Dr. Azadeh Kelly, a Developmental Optometrist who turned her childhood struggle with vision disorders into a lifelong mission of helping others. After overcoming strabismus as a young girl, Dr. Kelly now leads the way in neuro-optometric care, offering personalized vision therapy to children and adults.

Professional Organizer, Katy Annulli, dives into the emotional complexities of releasing in “The De-Cluttering Dilemma, Letting Go of Sentimental Attachments.” She explores why we hold on to sentimental items and offers practical strategies for releasing the attachments that no longer serve us. With a mindful approach, Annulli helps readers create more peaceful and organized living spaces, all while honoring the memories tied to their cherished possessions.

We’re also happy to feature Christina Connors’ “Raising Children to Be Thankful, Benefits of Feeling and Expressing Appreciation.” Teaching gratitude to the next generation is a powerful tool for creating resilience and positivity in a world that can feel increasingly stressful. I know that receiving a sweetly written thank you note from my great-great nephew, C.J., for his 16th birthday gift was an absolute treasure I’ll hold in my heart forever.

For the wellness practitioners in our community, don’t miss the chance to grow your professional circle at the upcoming speed networking event hosted by Quantum Energy Wellness and sponsored by Natural Awakenings, on November 12, 2024 (click here details). This special event is an excellent opportunity for health and wellness practitioners to connect, share expertise and engage in meaningful discussions. We hope to see you there!

Wishing you a peaceful season of gratitude …
