Ask Dr. Orloff About Intuitive Healing - "Positive Energy: The Fourth Prescription"
Fear is the biggest energy thief there is. A master seducer, it shamelessly robs of us of everything good and powerful, preys on our vulnerabilities. Many people become mesmerized for a lifetime, letting negative attitudes seize control. Enough! Though some fears are intuitively protective (we'll go into these), we can't let the irrational ones bamboozle us. Fear never stands alone; it inflames every vampiric emotion from worry to shame.

Music & Wellness - "Recreational Music Making: Mind-Body-Spirit and Wellness" - Barry Bittman, MD

Dr. Barry Bittman introduces us to a new musical approach. Rather than focusing on performance, "Recreational Music-Making" is centered on wellness along with exercise, nutrition and stress reduction. Anyone can participate and share in the enjoyment regardless of experience or skill level. Participants are simply asked to bring their enthusiasm, love of music and a willingness to share the rhythms of their soul. View more

Kick the Caffeine Habit This Year! - Destress with Teeccino Caffeine Free Herbal Coffee
Coffee drinkers may be surprised to learn that herbal coffee actually has nutritional benefits which help nourish and keep the body healthy. Coffee, on the other hand, only supplies the drug, caffeine, which stimulates your adrenal glands but does not provide energy - actually it could deplete the body's energy reserves. Teeccino is the first herbal coffee on the market - a blend of herbs, grains, fruits and nuts that are roasted, ground and brewed just like coffee. Dark, rich, and full-bodied, Teeccino brings you all the satisfaction of a robust brew with no caffeine reaction. Teeccino tastes mildly sweet from dates and figs, with only 15 calories per cup.
