Unleash Your Life Purpose
with Certified Life Purpose Coach Beverlee Garb
"Money will flow when you are aligned with your purpose."
Your life purpose is not outside yourself. It is not something that is hidden underneath a rock somewhere. It is within you all the time. The only standing between you and it is YOURSELF! Your limiting beliefs, fears, doubts, and unconscious commitments are keeping you from getting everything you desire, NOW!
So, ask yourself:
"Am I done playing small?"
"Am I ready to discover my life purpose?"
"Am I ready to live a life of authenticity once and for all?"
If you answered "yes" to the above, our upcoming events/workshops are for you.
We will guide you through a transformation in which you will uncover the illusion that stands between you and your dreams. By experiencing our unique body-centered methodology, you will release your "stories", your pains, and your fears so that you can shine out into the world and live a life true to your purpose.
4-6, September 13, $25

OB/GYN & Oriental Medicine
Oriental Medicine, like Western bio-medicine, has within its scope of practice a variety of
specialties, among these is Obstetrics and Gynecology. There are a wide range of effective
treatments for fertility support, generating a healthy pregnancy, supporting a natural birth,
and assisting in rapid recovery for both mother and child during the postpartum period.
FERTILITY
Infertility affects almost one in five couples in the United States today. Acupuncture has
been used for thousands of years to enhance both female and male fertility. Modern
research has confirmed that Oriental Medicine benefits the following:
- Regulates the Menstrual Cycle
- Stimulates Ovulation
- Balances the Endocrine System
- Corrects Hormonal Imbalances
- Increases Blood Flow in the Uterus
- Promotes a strong immune system
- Relieves Stress
- Increases Success Rates of In-Vitro Fertilization
It is recommended for women to receive a series of weekly acupuncture treatments for
approximately three months prior to conceiving, in order to regulate and strengthen the
body to support fertility and a healthy pregnancy. View the complete article for more...
PREGNANCY AND CHILDBIRTH
Oriental Medicine can benefit both the health of the mother and the baby during
pregnancy. It helps to prevent complications and can enhance the development of the
fetus organs. It can help to decrease maternal toxins which helps in the preventative
treatment of childhood illness after the baby is born. Additionally, oriental medicine is very
successful in reducing habitual miscarriages, morning sickness, fatigue, migraines/
headaches, heartburn, hemorrhoids, edema, back pain, sciatica, stress and emotional issues
for the mother during the pregnancy.
In Childbirth acupuncture can optimize labor conditions. This is a safe way to naturally
induce labor (when the woman is in at least the 39th week of pregnancy), assist in pain
relief, boost energy and support a smooth, healthy childbirth. It also reduces the risk of
unnecessary interventions and emergency Cesarean births.
We offer packages for each trimester. When set up in advance, we offer the service of going on site to your home or hospital to give you treatments of acupuncture and/or acutonics, and assist in any or all of your stages of labor and birth. View this article for more...
POSTPARTUM:
During the postpartum period it is crucial for the mother to have support in her
recovery, and acupuncture and chinese herbs can do that. In addition to accelerating the
healing process after a vaginal birth or cesarean birth, chinese medicine can help to
restore the mother�s energy levels and increase her milk supply. It can also be used to
prevent postpartum depression and regulate the menstrual cycle. It is recommended to
receive weekly treatments for at least 3 - 6 months after childbirth. This can support the
body to recuperate from the pregnancy and birth as well as give back nourishment to the
body that is spent on caring for your new baby.
We offer a postpartum package that includes 4 once a week home visits during the first
month after birth, and then once a week one hour treatments in the spa for the following
2 months after.
ARE ACUPUNCTURE AND HERBS SAFE IN PREGNANCY?
There are specific herbs and acupuncture points that are contraindicated during
pregnancy. But when using the right herbs and acupuncture points the results are
beneficial for both mother and baby and are very safe. Our licensed acupuncturists are
well trained in chinese medicine in the treatment of pregnancy.
WHAT TO EXPECT IN A TREATMENT:
The first treatment lasts 60-90 minutes to allow for time to consult and diagnose, in
addition to the treatment. The following treatments typically last one hour. We use singleuse
sterile needles in our acupuncture clinic. Needles are gently inserted into specific
acupuncture points, and they are left in for 20-45min while you rest. Beds are positioned
to properly support a pregnancy. We recommend wearing loose comfortable clothing
and to have eaten at least one hour ahead of time. Please arrive 15 minutes before your
appointment with your paperwork completed.
We offer Pediatric Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture Facial Renewal, as well as Acupuncture and Herbal Consults for preventive care and a variety of conditions including stress, pain, illness, depression, fatigue, and more.

The Crystal Corner
The Power of Citrine
Citrine contains the element of Fire, which brings forth manifestation and creativity for those who choose to work with this gemstone for guidance and healing. The Fire element is associated with the Solar Plexus Chakra and can be a challenge for many of us as we go thru life's journey to keep our personal power in check and balance. Many have heard the saying Let Go, Let God. In trying to gain power over others and situations that are out of our control, we tend to give our power away and wonder why we end up feeling lost and betrayed. If we feed the fire with fear, we get more fear, if we feed the fire with Love and Light, we become empowered and gain the benefit of its manifestation for the highest good of all.
Citrine transforms negative energy into positive Light and never needs cleansing. Placed anywhere on the body, it can assist with the release of unwanted attachments providing you are willing to let go from your heart. Letting go only from the mind creates an energy pattern much like a dog chasing its tail. Many of us can get stuck there until we have finally learned the lesson which allows us to move forward and go with the flow of the universe.
My personal experience with Citrine warms my being with the golden ray it radiates within and without as I ask for its guidance and wisdom. One can ask for prosperity and receive it if acted upon with the right choices and intentions - putting a small tumbled piece of Citrine in your purse will enhance the flow of its energy.
*With regards to Citrine and its connection to our empowerment and manifestation, I feel inspired to reference some interesting information.
*The number combination of 737 is found on various crystal faces. The sacred geometry of seven-three-seven symbolically indicates personal empowerment and manifestation (the three) held in balance by the pair of sevens which directly connects to the superconscious. The center triangle is the connecting point, the bridge between personal and universal identification which represents unity. The seven sided faces embody the virtues of enlightenment which are: Love, Knowledge, Freedom, Manifestation, Joy, Peace and Unity. When tapped into with our heart, this can bring about a great transformation in the choices we make with our connection to Spirit.
With Light

September Astrology with Sylvia L. Wyant
 |
Nourishing the Body, Mind and Soul - Something extremely important in dealing with our busy lives these days and something that we often place on the back burner. There are many ways to find nourishment, but discovering what truly nourishes your Body, Mind and Soul can be a bit confusing at best. With this monthly column on Astrology, I hope to give you some direction in finding your way to a more peaceful life experience!
I began practicing astrology professionally over 15 years. I also am a practicing Body Psychotherapist and a faculty member of Regis University, School of Innovative Studies, MA department... that being said, onto September's Astrology.
September 4/5th presents us with a Full Moon in Pieces.
Nourishing your Body, Mind & Soul - Although September is usually a time of year that we are jumping back into school and initiating new schedules, seasonally it really is a time to bring in the harvest, filling our storerooms with the food we need to get through the dark nights of winter. With the moon in Pieces, we need to allow ourselves to float in the primordial pools of what nourishes us. Sun and new moon in Virgo asks us to sort out the details, separating the wheat from the chaff.
BODY: Take time to prepare a good meal, using the fresh foods harvested from the field. No fast food! Let yourself soak in a hot bath, get a massage to restore those tired muscles.
MIND: Take time to meditate and sort through all that the summer has produced. What thoughts will truly serve and nourish you as winter closes in. Remember - energy and action follow thought. Think good thoughts.
SOUL: Once you have nourished the body and the mind, give some love to your soul by connecting with others in a deep, compassionate way. Volunteer at the Food Bank, share the harvest with a neighborhood dinner. Give back, there are lots of people who need your bounty and the soul finds bliss in service to self and others - the mantra of Virgo.
This is a time to prepare your own personal health plan, in detail. Don't wait for illness or the powers that be to tell you what is nourishing for you - empower you - take charge of your personal health today! On an endnote - Pluto the God of Transformation will move direct on September 11th, in Capricorn, thus demanding that we do change. We can choose to do this consciously. Get clear on what nourishes you.
For more info and to book an astrology or personal nourishment consultation contact, Sylvia Lorraine Wyant, MLS - 303.507.3511 (Thursday Clinic - open to those in financial need). Don't forget The Female Brain workshop series beginning September 13!
