Tonight's Wednesday Wellness talk (a series of free monthly talks on a variety of wellness topics held on the third Wednesday of each month) is cancelled due to an unavoidable schedule conflict. I apologize for the inconvenience for anyone who was hoping to attend tonight.
The next talk will now be held on Wednesday, March 20th at 7:00 p.m. Please check back for upcoming topics at this monthly talk. If you have any ideas for topics you'd like to see covered in upcoming talks, please contact me.
I wanted to share an announcement from Tuxedos and Tennis Shoes Catering about their annual free community Thanksgiving meal for those in the West Seattle area who are interested:
Join us for a Free Community Thanksgiving Meal at the Hall at Fauntleroy in West Seattle [9131 California Avenue SW]on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 22th from 12 noon to 3:00 PM. All are welcome for a traditional turkey dinner with all the trimmings prepared by Tuxedos and Tennis Shoes Catering Executive Chef Michael Chase. This is the 14th year that Tuxedos and Tennis Shoes owners Meg and David Haggerty and David Meckstroth have hosted this wonderful dinner. They are joined by a wonderful group of volunteers who help greet our welcome guests and serve dinner.
We will gladly accept donations for desserts. They can be dropped off at the Hall the day before Thanksgiving between 10 and 4 or on Thanksgiving Day after 10 AM.
My husband and I have attended this for the past several years, as our family is 3,000 miles away. The meal is free and absolutely fabulous and I truly appreciate their generosity in offering this each year to the community. All are welcome, from people who are homeless and/or hungry to those who simply do not want to be alone for Thanksgiving. If you're looking for a place to be with others and have an enjoyable meal, do consider it. They usually have a table set up where you can donate some winter clothing as well for those who need them. No reservations are necessary - just show up!
I just learned about an interesting healing method called The Bars through Access Consciousness. There are 32 Bars of energy that run through your head, each corresponding to a different area of life, like Money, Control, Creativity, Body, Awareness, and many more. Holding these points on the head releases energy and begins to unravel where you are functioning from autopilot instead of awareness, and can help release destructive behavior patterns, past hurts, losses and fears.
Knowing what I know from Health Kinesiology and energy work, The Bars sounded very interesting to me, both on a personal level and as something to offer to clients along with Health Kinesiology and Reconnective Healing.
There will be a training class in West Seattle this coming Sunday, July 29th, and there is still space available. I have no connection to the class, other than the fact that I just signed up to take it. Would you like to join me? For more information, please contact the facilitator, Danielle, at Essential Jade.
I'll check in next week to let you know about my class experience and how I might be able to help clients with this interesting new work!
The June 20th topic will be Introduction to Health Kinesiology and Muscle Testing. Space is limited, so please call or email to reserve a spot as the talk is subject to cancellation if there are no advance RSVPs.
If you have any ideas for topics you'd like to see covered in upcoming talks, please contact me.
I just saw an interesting trailer for a film called Hungry For Change, from the producers/directors of Food Matters, which you may have heard of. I really support the notion of food being very powerful and being a vital part of our wellness and balance. This movie looks to discuss the diet and health industry and the lies that we are being told about what we allegedly nourish ourselves with in terms of food.
The trailer appears below, and you can then go to the Hungry for Change website to sign up for a link to view the entire movie for free from March 21 through March 31, 2012. From the website:
"HUNGRY FOR CHANGE exposes shocking secrets the diet, weightloss and food industry don't want you to know about. Deceptive strategies designed to keep you craving more and more.
Could the foods we are eating actually be keeping us stuck in the diet trap?

I was recently working with life coach Andrea Owen at Your Kick Ass Life Coaching about my practice. With her guidance I was able to visualize where I want to see my energy work practice by the year 2025, and what it would take in the years between now and then to get that vision to become reality.
I realized that while I was grateful to have had the office space at ActivSpace, it was time to move on. My clientele is growing and I was quickly outgrowing the small space. I sat down and made a list of everything I wanted in my next office: a larger treatment room, a quiet and more professional environment, a waiting room, a conference room to hold free community talks on health and wellness topics, and a more convenient location. I wrote a Craigslist ad in the commercial real estate section asking for leads on that type of space. The next day an ad appeared from someone renting space that was exactly what I had asked for! (Thanks, Universe!)
Yesterday I turned over the keys to my old office and am thrilled to now be working out of my new office which better reflects my "big picture" vision!
I am now taking appointments at 3515 SW Alaska Street (2nd Floor) in West Seattle. It is a 2-story brick building on SW Alaska Street between 35th and 36th Streets. There is a small parking lot located mid-block in the alley behind the building (enter from 35th or 36th, first driveway south of Alaska), and it brings you directly to the second floor entrance. The bus stop is directly out front for easy access from much of West Seattle and also downtown Seattle. Click on the Contact tab above for a photo of the building and a link for driving directions.
Stay tuned for information about an Open House to celebrate the new location, and I will soon announce free monthly sessions to discuss health and wellness topics. I can't wait to serve your wellness needs at the new and improved Butterfly Balance Wellness Center; you can book an appointment right now online by clicking the button below. See you soon!
I am hoping to attend this free event in Federal Way, WA this coming Saturday, 2/26, at 11:00 a.m. and wanted to pass this along to anyone else interested in attending.
Special Speaker is J.R. Celski, Olympic Medalist, who overcame his potentially career-ending injuries using natural products from AIM Nutrition.
I personally use AIM products and highly recommend them. Many Health Kinesiology clients are using these nutritional products with beneficial effects to their health. Come to this no-obligation, free event to learn more about the products, as well as this page on my website and my AIM store.
Note: I am not the one arranging for this event - just passing along the information - so any questions should be directed to the contact listed on the flyer photo above.
