Moving Towards A More Just And Beautiful World By Mark Sheehan Excuse me while I revel in Bernie Sanders’ stunning wins in Michigan, and more recently, in Washington, Alaska and Hawaii. In the coming weeks, hopefully the Bern will sweep many more states. Clearly the biggest upset in primary history, the Sanders victory in Michigan, not unlike the Trump phenomenon, signals a sea change in American politics. 1. Money ain’t what it used to be. Jeb was supposed to cruise to a coronation on a tide of megabucks. Hillary was “inevitable” with her estimated $2.5 billion war chest full of insider loot. But Bernie has 5 million supporters! 2. Guns, Gays and God? That dawg don’t hunt anymore. The old themes that worked before to manipulate the masses have lost their punch. Instead, people are concerned about lost jobs, lost wages, lost opportunities. 3. Issues matter: economic reform and social justice matter. The elites still favor big trade deals, but working people know that flipping burgers doesn’t pay the bills and that cheap goods don’t make up for a living wage. 4. The millennials, never blinded by TV glare, sought information online; so they missed the boob tube brainwashing. Social media provides wider coverage, deeper analysis and the ability to share insights with an online community of activists – all the way from Truckers for Trump to Bern firebrands. 5. People are following the trail of $$ breadcrumbs. Bill and Hillary received $153 million in mostly corporate speaking fees. Asked about taking big checks, Hill replied, “That’s what they offered.” Really? And they ask for nothing in return? 6. Character matters. As Sanders’ photos spilled over from Facebook to mainstream media,

people saw a man who had walked his talk all his life; a man in touch with working people and who truly cares. 7. Media bias is pathetic and predictable. CBS, CNN, Fox, even MSNBC, love Trump as he drives ratings and brings in $$. They disdain Bernie, ‘the socialist.’ In 2015, ABC aired 240 minutes on the 2016 election: 80 minutes on Trump, but a mere 20 seconds on Sanders. Behind and beyond the socialpolitical dynamics is vision – what can be seen as a better, more livable future. Away from the political spotlight, thousands of climate activists are fighting against fracking, and for carbon taxes and real change to save the planet. They are advancing a more just, equitable, greener and healthier world; a world free from poisons, pesticides and other healthdegrading products. In our state, the Hawaii Alliance for Progressive Action (HAPA) recently brought the Global Summit for Food Justice to the islands. Their Kuleana Academy is training a new generation of political candidates who are more connected to their communities and more sensitive to the rights of nature and Hawaiian issues. HAPA founder and Kauai progressive councilman, Gary Hooser, has called for an end
to research crops that provide zero food for local consumption while they pollute our environment and damage our health. “We must put feeding ourselves and protecting our communities’ health and environment first.” In a similar spirit, Maui Tomorrow Foundation just published a visionary report – Malama ‘Aina: A Conversation About Maui’s Farming Future. This 50-page document is part of the Foundation’s ongoing commitment to sustainable development and the maintenance of Maui’s rural lifestyle. The report begins with an overview of Maui’s central valley and the sugar era; then makes the case for a future that grows a healthy economy based on food, fuel and fiber production, geared to meet local needs but also for export crops. This comprehensive study considers climate change, soil conditions, use of existing HC&S resources, retrofitting cane operations in a transition to regenerative agriculture, livestock management, and the potential for huge growth in farm employment. The full report is on the Maui-Tomorrow.org website. It is a brilliant vision that will deepen and widen the debate about Maui’s future. Prepared by Permaculture Design International LLC and written by Jenny Pell, the report is based on discussions with ranchers, conventional and organic farmers, and native Hawaiians. The spirit of the document is explained in the introduction, with a definition from Puanani Rogers: “Malama ‘aina - care for and nurture the land so it can give back all we need to sustain life for ourselves and our future generations.” This report should be viewed as a first draft toward a more just and beautiful Maui. Join the conversation. Your new world is emerging beautifully. Mark Sheehan is a founding board member of Maui Tomorrow, a health advocate, and a licensed real estate broker.

Nurturing Wellness
Spring is traditionally a time of renewal, a special season when the new can replace the old. Just like cleaning out your closet can make space for new clothes, you can clean up your diet and release old toxins from your system. Your body will emerge renewed and energized. Remember to add oxygen to the mix with committed exercise! Simultaneously, we can take time now to clear out the cobwebs of our psyche, releasing negative thoughts and old traumas and dramas by just letting them go. Blessing those old relationships, people and events goes a long way towards releasing them, making the way for new, more joy-filled experiences. You’ll find lots of helpful hints to nurture your wellness in this issue. If you choose wisely, you’ll enjoy the benefits of a robust and happy lifestyle! With the end of sugar cane harvesting, we have an awesome opportunity to nurture Maui’s wellness as well.

Hints To Nurture Psychic Wellbeing
By Liah Howard Spring is here! Now is the time to clean out the old and welcome in the new. Instead of just cleaning our closets, yards and garages, let’s consider purging our psyches of lower vibrational frequencies so we can soar! Most of us know what it takes to spring-clean our homes and yards, but do we understand how to cleanse our energy fields and purify our own consciousness? Do we know the techniques for clearing the aura of clouds or holes that need repair? In my work, I regularly cut psychic cords to others that are unhealthy. Spring is a great time to clear away any old thoughts or energies that we may have unconsciously picked up on our journey. This clarity allows our inner light to shine brightly through us like a crystal clear pane of glass welcoming the sun’s rays into our home. Before we begin cleaning our psychic space, we have to assess our current condition. Many of us have a lack of awareness about our psychic state. We might ask ourselves questions such as: “Am I feeling run down, stressed or strained? Do I have unexplained feelings of anxiety? Am I worrying about someone I love for no apparent reason? Am I experiencing sadness that is baffling to me? Do I find myself repeatedly thinking about someone I would rather forget?” If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you may be experiencing psychic overload or carrying someone else’s energy in your consciousness. These feelings of disharmony are indications that it is time for a psychic housecleaning. Let’s begin with understanding that we are energy beings vibrating at different frequencies at various times. When we feel happy and inspired, our energy signature is like a hummingbird – quick and light. When we feel depressed or angry, our energy imprint is sluggish and slow like a glacier. Our psychic energy patterns shift in response to diverse circumstances. When we pay attention to our own energy field, we can feel when we slip into lower vibratory rates, and adjust our inner state accordingly. To raise our frequency, we can meditate, exercise, pray, chant or use psychic clearing tools until we feel better. In this age, we can’t live in a cave separate from life, but we can effectively shield ourselves from negative energy and become aware of cues from the body. The “sponge effect” happens when we unknowingly take on toxic energy from our environment. Symptoms may include feeling tired, headachy or irritable when we unknowingly absorb negativity from another’s energy field. Many of us succumb to this psychic ‘second-hand energy’ because we don’t know the tools to shield ourselves to prevent it. Psychic health requires us to protect our psychic space the way we would protect ourselves from pollution. We can take action when we feel our energy level is being compromised. By taking responsibility for how we feel, we become empowered and free. For example, if we live in an apartment building where neighbors are fighting, we can pray for our neighbors, speak to them, leave the building or move to a new location. Another option is to quiet our minds in meditation and not allow the frequency of fighting to disturb our inner peace. By taking care of our inner world, we send out ripples of harmony that affect our outer world. The choice is ours. Let’s choose to shine our light brightly to the world!

Cultivating A Synchronistic Lifestyle
By Paul O’Brien Often we are our own worst enemy. We resist painful realities or avoid difficult situations; or we become overwhelmed by taking on too much. Pain is a normal part of life, but the extent of our suffering is largely governed by attitude. We do not have to resign ourselves to being helpless victims, always defending against possible dangers. One way of managing personal challenges is to look at life as a game of strategy and timing, like chess or the game of ‘Go.’ Of course, our lives aren’t games that we can ever really lose – at least not as long as we keep improving. Awareness of synchronicity can help tremendously. This is a higher awareness of timing, a stronger sense of being in the flow of life and essentially trusting life’s process of evolution. The happy result of this approach is the realization of a “synchronistic lifestyle.” Below are some benefits that describe a synchronistic lifestyle, wherein we learn to make better decisions and ride the waves of change rather than flounder. Creativity: Inspiration is the mental connection between a receptive intuitive sense and an idea ready to be adopted by someone who can appreciate it enough to do something with it. Stress and distractions block receptivity to creative inspiration, but our brains are hard-wired to seek solutions to problems. The best approach, however, is a calm mind and a quiet heart. How can you follow inspiration if you’re on high alert? There are mindfulness exercises to “calm” the mind in my book Great Decisions, Perfect Timing. Sometimes it’s enough to just remember what you enjoy or find meaning in, acknowledging the importance of your creative side. Develop Confidence in Your Own Intuition: Once you have identified the meaningfulness of what you enjoy, celebrate your competence! You are much

more capable than you generally give yourself credit for. Believe in your inner strengths – and assert your desires. We can quickly feel overwhelmed if we never say “no” to co-workers, friends, and even strangers. Being assertive while doing what you are good at will make you more visible to key people. The exercise of confidence reduces stress levels over time. Wisdom and Contentment: Think of contentment as a “ripened state of happiness.” Based on an unconditional acceptance of reality, contentment arises from conscious feelings of gratitude and compassion – for yourself and all beings. Cultivate contentment by appreciating all the ways that things in your life are going right. Contentment usually arrives after you have had time to digest insights and unlock their meaning. That’s when you have achieved some wisdom, the culmination of learning from experience. Wisdom helps us balance our needs with the greater good. As Aristotle put it long ago, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” If you cultivate the synchronistic lifestyle, you will have more access to creative powers that influence life’s ebbs and flows and your reactions. The more you trust your intuition and take the risks that grow you, the more accurate and trustworthy your intuition will become. Your understanding of people and human nature will dramatically improve. You will learn that the more you trust yourself – and the Universe – the more confident and happy you automatically will become.

Nurturing Wellness By Exploring Our Pain By Devin Grace Many of us have spent a good deal of our lifetimes trying to avoid pain. I think that may be the most intelligent thing we can do as humans: avoid pain. Right? Can anyone really, truly, honestly tell us that trying to avoid our pain is not smart? After all, pain is, well, painful. Yet, as smart as it may be to move away from pain, all of us can also say that trying to avoid our pain doesn’t work. Avoiding our physical pain does not make the pain go away. It is the same with our mental / emotional pain, and our spiritual pain. The only remedy I have witnessed for making emotional, physical and spiritual pain go away is to pay attention to it. Yup. Go right into it. A surgeon doesn’t avoid the point of pain; she goes straight into it. A surfer doesn’t avoid the wave that could crush her; she goes right into it. A bodybuilder doesn’t stop when the pain starts; in fact, he goes deeper into it. What if it is more intelligent to go into our pain than to avoid it? That doesn’t mean it is intelligent to create more pain for ourselves; rather, it means to go into the pain that is already there. As with an infection, our pain, when not dealt with, will fester and become unbearable and sometimes even life-threatening. How do we go into our pain, expose our pain? A great way to start is to recognize that you have pain, and to realize that you are not alone in having pain. Every single person on the planet experiences some kind of pain in one form or another. So there is no shame in pain. And that’s where you start. Then

you can start writing when your pain comes up. Let it out. Get it out. Or you can talk to a trusted friend who has had some experience with his or her own pain, and who isn’t afraid of yours. Talking to someone who is in denial about their own pain is not the best

idea – they’ll try to talk you into shoving yours back down with statements like, “It’s all good,” or “Don’t worry, be happy,” or “You shouldn’t feel that way, you’re a great person.” These statements are not helpful; they shut the person up at times when the person should in fact be talking and letting it out. If you don’t have a friend who can accept your pain, you may want to talk to a coach, consultant or therapist, or attend a self-help group. Or you can always just grab a bat and start banging a pillow. The goal is to get it out! Don’t let it fester. Don’t keep it inside. Pain is telling us that something foreign is in our body, our mind, our spirit – something that doesn’t belong, something that needs our attention. Remember, there is no shame in pain. And it is our responsibility to heal our pain so that we don’t cause others pain as a result of not dealing with our own. It is amazing that one of the best ways to nurture wellness might actually be recognizing that we are not well. In this way, our pain points us in the direction of our wellness.

Nurturing Your Soul
By Suzän Proia When we get caught up in our daily lives, it’s easy to forget to nurture ourselves. As a reminder, I offer nine no-cost ways to be good to your soul. 1. Breathe Deeply ~ Fill your lungs completely, focus on controlling your inhalations and exhalations. Marvel at the process. 2. Take a Walk Outside ~ Slow down. Connect with nature, find your comfortable stride. 3. Watch the Sunrise or Sunset ~ Enjoy the possibilities of a new day or unwind while witnessing the magnificence of the setting sun. Turn your camera off and feast your eyes. 4. Laugh! ~ Heal your soul with laughter. Find a favorite comedy, a funny friend, a video of babies laughing, whatever it takes – laugh out loud! 5. Hug and Be Hugged ~ Feel the natural “happiness” chemicals coursing through your veins. Reward yourself and someone you love by sharing a good, long hug. 6. Star Gaze ~ Grab a blanket at night, find a spot in nature with a clear view, lie back and count the stars. Locate constellations, look for shooters and clear your head. 7. Pat a Dog or a Cat ~ The pure unconditional love that fills the heart of a pet is infectious and healing. Stroking soft fur lowers stress. Find a cooperative fur baby and pat away. 8. Reflect Your Love ~ Look in a mirror and say “I love you!” to your reflection. Repeat daily. 9. Dance! ~ Listen to music that really moves you, with a partner or solo. Don’t worry about how you look – just let go and dance! Self-nurturing honors your entire being. Create your list of favorites and remember to devote time to yourself. Here’s to celebrating you! Suzän Proia, EPC, C.Ht. is certified as a professional coach, an EFT practitioner and hypnotherapist. Suzän specializes in personal excellence; dissolving whatever is preventing you from being your very best! For a complimentary consultation, call 808.870.8754 or visit www.MyPowerfulSelf.com.
Spring Into Health!
By Maurgana Stiastny It’s time to bounce into spring! But maybe you are slightly dragging a little. Even though we live in the tropics, we still experience wintertime. Perhaps you gained a little extra weight, or feel sluggish from not exercising or sleeping well. The key to staying healthy is to harmonize with the changes of the seasons. Just as we spring clean our homes, it is helpful to spring cleanse our bodies as well. Choose from the many cleanses that are available, and then tailor it to your personal needs. For additional support, seek professional guidance. It’s important to cleanse because we get bogged down by toxins in our body, which can lead to disease. Scientists have identified more than 200 industrial chemicals – such as pesticides, lead, mercury, BPAs, flame retardants and jet fuel – that lead to numerous diseases including cancer, autoimmune disease, genital deformities, lower sperm count and diminished IQ. In our society, chemicals are “innocent until proven guilty.” Even if they are proven to be harmful, they are still allowed in our country. The best way to combat this is to take great care of ourselves. Here are some tips to bring that bounce back in your step! 1) Eat real, organic foods. Alkaline rich diets are best as they have been linked to a healthier immune system. Examples include greens, fruits and lots of water. Pass up heavier foods in favor of lighter, cleaner foods. Foods that are high in antioxidants and fiber cleanse the colon and enhance digestion. 2) Use natural personal care products. 3) Reduce exposure to toxins in your home. Check the Environmental Working Group’s “healthy home checklist.” 4) Test for mold in your home. 5) Exercise regularly to enhance the body’s ability to cleanse.

How Do We “Let Go”?
Renewing Healthy Habits
By Rhonda Felix “Let go,” they softly encourage. In time, the softness can turn to a demand: “Let go!” Yikes! Letting go – of people, places or things – is the hardest thing I have had to come to terms with in this lifetime. Holding on is what I have done more often than not. And why do we hold on? We usually fear that what we have a hold on won’t come back. Or, we fear the ultimate anguish of being left alone! Letting go means change of one form or another – a change of people, places or things. This does not always have to be a physical letting go; it can also be an emotional letting go that involves moving into self-care. Self-care may not be easy to step into if you don’t have someone to role model it for you. It is almost impossible to take care of yourself if you are spending all of your energy and time taking care of someone else. How do you know if this is the case? Being tired and irritable is a good indicator. Take a look at how you spend your day. How much of it is devoted to exercise, right eating, sleeping, and developing the things that interest you? In an incredible book by D. Patrick Miller, The Way Of Forgiveness, the author states that if we ask for help, it is always given. We need to trust this and know that it may not come in the way we think, but it will always come. So we must keep our eyes and minds open. Being willing to let go is the beginning of a whole new adventure! Rhonda J. Felix is the owner of Soul Space Maui Renewal Center, located in Wailuku. She is a certified teacher for “You Can Heal Your Life”®, and a licensed Unity teacher. Reflexology is her specialty, if you like your feet rubbed! Call her at 808.205.8302.
By Barbara Ensign Discovering wellbeing is finding out what is good for you and making the lifestyle changes needed to make them a part of your life. Oftentimes, it is the simple, basic habits that we have strayed from over the years that need adjusting. Many healthy lifestyle habits can nurture us and send positive messages to our DNA naturally. Getting enough sleep each night is important for maintaining a healthy body weight, a strong immune system, mental alertness, and emotional wellbeing. This means getting a minimum of eight full hours of sleep. Focus on making bedtime pleasant; leave behind the worries that bring you stress. Learn how to deal with negative emotions and anxiety to help reduce your daily stress level by focusing on a higher self. Healthy eating is another way to nurture wellbeing. Every day we have the opportunity to make healthy food choices. This includes cutting down on or eliminating alcohol. Food can have one of the most direct impacts on our health. Getting some kind of light exercise every day also helps nurture wellness. It not only helps maintain your body weight, but also supports a healthy mental outlook on life. It is important to be consistent in doing some exercise that you enjoy. Wellbeing also depends on our happiness, which includes living our life’s purpose, being creative, and feeling like the person we want to be. Last, but not least, a daily meditation practice nurtures our spiritual self. Meditating reduces stress, creates a feeling of wellbeing, and helps us live longer. Whichever area in your life needs nurturing, hypnosis can realign your subconscious mind with your conscious mind to easily achieve your goal.

Prayer Nourishes All
By Jenny Grace Shaw “I want you to know I prayed for you last night,” she whispers in my ear. “I prayed for your safety, your health, and for your loved ones. I prayed you would be open – open to new ideas, thoughts, situations, relationships.” Now she leans over me, with such long arms that seem more than capable of wrapping all around me. “I prayed for your serenity; for pure nourishment of your whole self – mind, body, and spirit.” She turns to me, her eyes so blue and magical like the ocean herself. This time she whispers a question: “Sweetie, do you know what pure nourishment means? Do you think you’ve ever felt purely nourished, wherein you found your whole self completely present, calm, at peace, full and content? A moment, a present in your life when you found yourself so nourished that you needed nothing, you searched for nothing, and you had no temptation for substances to help ‘save’ you from yourself? A time when you could securely feel or envision standing on a foundation specifically designed for you? Do you understand how precious it is to be alive – connected to the earth, and welcomed into this world rather than feeling as though you are different and standing outside of her?” I had been staring right back at her, tears welling up in my dirty brown eyes, ever so flowing by the time she comes to an end of her questions. Starting to fall upon my “incorrect” face, awkward and ugly core, my internal dialogue did what it always does – it just stomped on my peace, for ego knows I am not deserving of the gift of pure nourishment. Ego says, “Everyone who knows me knows I am ‘broken’ and just a waste of space; so what’s with this, lady?” Ego demands in his usual bullying manner. My knees begin to buckle; my body is sweating, shaking, losing contact with the foundation so established just one second ago. For a minute I am back in my head telling myself, “Knock it off! Quit being such a baby and throwing your own pity party!” I begin to scream now, “God, you’re so pathetic!” And suddenly, I am interrupted by a sense of calm; warmth runs through my spine and I feel the words: “Dear one, I prayed for you last night. I prayed for the opening of your eyes, ears, arms and heart. I prayed you would walk with your head up and forward so the world could see your soul shining through your eyes. I prayed the bondages you have learned to give your power away to, be honored, for they have helped you in some ways. I prayed that nature’s nourishing support rise up to guide you towards life authentically embraced. I prayed for ego to kindly step aside. “I prayed that you understand the difference between guilt and shame – guilt being a healthier and more productive emotion, as opposed to shame which will kidnap your spirit with every intention to silence it forever. I prayed for you to discover self-compassion and empathy; the deepest, most forgiving and nourishing love one can give to another, and the exact kind of love you always give to others. Darlin’, I prayed for you last night and I will continually pray; but what I really pray for is your willingness to let go and join me.” Jenny Grace Shaw, M.Ed., LMHC, CPT, HHP, is a therapist, personal trainer and wellness coach with offices in South Maui. She is passionate about sharing an integrative holistic approach to health and wellbeing. Jenny would love to hear from you.

Trust Wellbeing
By Ann Paquin It is easy to trust the wellbeing that surrounds us when we’re feeling good. When we’re not feeling optimal, however, our trust can waver. The good news is that we can use our emotional intelligence to guide our thinking and behavior back into our flow. So how do we do that? When we identify our emotions, rather than repress them or reflexively act upon them, we can discover how to work with them. Let’s use as an example, frustration. When frustration is part of our habit, energy follows attention. We hear it in the stories we tell, and our bodies constrict. We feel the frustration in the people and situations in our lives. Below are some things we can do to shift out of frustration. First, we can determine if the frustration is our own. If the feeling comes out of the blue, we may be empathically feeling the frustration of another. It is possible to feel other people’s emotions from a distance. In asking whether the feeling is ours, we begin to know our own frustration better. Second, we can breathe and ground to observe the sensations in our bodies, which helps us to be present rather than reactive. In the present moment, we can look for supportive thoughts such as beliefs, mottos or wisdom that feel better. Third, we can change our location. Get up for a glass of water, or finish work in another chair or room. True “frustration” intelligence helps identify our needs – it can help us establish healthy boundaries or move beyond limiting habits. A healthy relationship with frustration can slow us down, reduce negativity, and help us feel better. In fact, all feelings have value and unique energy to guide us towards greater trust in our wellbeing. Ann is an intuitive soul coach and Enneagram teacher, offering transformational solutions and tools for developing emotional intelligence and intuitive capacities.

A Fully Sustainable Maui
By Judy Levy The exciting new Community Organic Farmland Initiative just launched, and residents of Maui now have a chance to give voice to how we want the 36,000 acres of sugar cane land to be used in the future. A new petition is circulating to put on the ballot in November a proposed law that would ultimately allow these lands to be converted to public agricultural parks that use organic and regenerative practices. This would allow our soil to be remediated, and the toxins to be cleansed from years of chemical use. Local permaculture specialists and Maui farmers have already proposed plans that could rebuild the soil and transform our island into one of the largest organic farms on the planet. Instead of continuing to import 90 percent of the food we eat here, we could use the abundant land available to grow diversified, healthy crops that would feed all of Maui and the other islands. Regenerative farming would slowly reverse the damage done to the environment. Fortunately, we have the people, knowledge, wisdom and determination to accomplish this miracle. This Initiative would offer new opportunities for large numbers of smallscale, local farmers to become the seeds of a new economic, ecological and agricultural infrastructure. It will foster small businesses and create jobs; it will also stop much more development. This could be a joyful collaboration of all of us who love this beautiful a’ina. We all need to get involved! Please read the information at www. MauiCommunityFarmland.org to educate yourself, and sign the petition at island-wide locations! Better yet, become a petitioner. Show that you care by volunteering and donating on the website. Judy Levy is an activist tutu and farmer in Haiku.

What Would Self-Love Do?
By Linda Rayner, M.D. “Practicing self-love means learning how to trust ourselves, to treat ourselves with respect, and to be kind and affectionate toward ourselves.” - Brene Brown As we learn to love ourselves, we make it easier for other people to love us. One way we can improve our relationship with ourselves is to adapt The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman, into a guidepost for daily activities that can increase our self-love. The five love languages are physical touch, acts of service, quality time, receiving gifts, and words of affirmation. 1. Feeling self-love involves physical touch, like massaging yourself as you moisturize, relieving stress and releasing toxins with a hot Epsom salt bath, or treating yourself to a spa treatment. 2. Doing self-love encompasses acts of service. For instance, choosing to prepare healthy meals for yourself, grooming yourself with love and care, creating a pleasing home environment, and scheduling regular health checkups. 3. Being present with self-love means spending quality time with yourself. This can include a daily mindfulness practice (such as meditation or progressive muscle relaxation), making time for leisure and hobbies, prioritizing sleep and exercise, and most importantly, not over-committing your time. 4. Absorbing self-love involves offering gifts to yourself – not just indiscriminate buying, but buying only what you love, and investing in yourself with education and travel. 5. Thinking self-love means daily words of affirmation, positive selftalk, and keeping a gratitude journal. If you are having difficulty with this, simply ask yourself, “What would self-love do?” The answer may include seeking help. Finding a professional who can work with you to clear subconscious blocks to self-love, can make the path to self-love easier for you. Linda Rayner, M.D. helps clients transform their subconscious blocks to gain more ease, grace and love in their lives.

Meet You At The Barre
By Séah Criss Last year I discovered a technique called Barre training that transformed my middle-aged body into a stronger, more flexible, more curvaceous form than ever before! Barre combines the traditional dance barre training of specific muscle groups with movements from dance, yoga, aerobic movement and strength training. I became certified in Total Barre training and adapted it to a slower pace for my senior and women fitness clients – this work is especially suited for the aging bodies of us boomers. Try this simple series of exercises: Use a kitchen counter, stable chair back or railing as your barre. It should be a bit higher than waist level. Stand facing the barre about forearm distance away, with arms bent so fingers or palms lightly touch the barre. Draw belly button in so abs are engaged. Soften knees to slightly bent (this tilts your pelvis in the correct direction). Keep upper body lifted, head and neck aligned with the spine, feet parallel and hip width apart. Breathe fluidly and deeply. Practice each phase for 8 repetitions. 1) Gently bend knees to a slight squat, sinking down about two inches; then slowly rise up. 2) Gently lift and lower heels up and down, keeping upper body in perfect alignment. 3) Slightly squat and repeat rising and falling of heels. Then, lift one heel, then the other, as if running. 4) In a standing position, rotate hips in and out by turning toes outward and inward. This Total Barre basic lower body exercise sequence will give your body/mind the awareness it needs for balance and flexibility, and will build core and leg muscle strength. Meet me at the Fit for Life Barre! Séah Criss, CPT, RYT is Maui’s senior fitness trainer, Total Barre instructor and bodyworker specializing in deep tissue massage, craniosacral and wave yoga. She is also a life, relationship, and executive coach, and health and wellness counselor. Her island-wide practice is called Barefoot Fitness.

Emergence Into Mastery By THEO (channeled through Sheila Gillette) Emergence is coming into the wholeness of your being – the recognition of the divinity that you are, blending in now with the energies that are ever-present about the earth. It is merging your persona with the higher vibrational frequencies of the 5th dimension to recognize the wholeness or the divine self. An integrated human being is one who has compassion, humility, love. She exudes childlike qualities of curiosity, laughter, and ease – day-to-day, moment-to-moment. He is at ease with himself – physically, emotionally, and spiritually. We are now awakening to the possibility of a life of miracles and magic, and we can manifest those experiences in our lives. These are exciting words – miracles and magic. But it is the realization that you have the ability to use the energy of the universe to manifest, which then brings forth what one would call magic or miraculous experiences. When a decisive and clear decision is made, the universal energies can align with that, just as when a light switch is turned on and electricity is aligned on a frequency to light the bulb. Making such a decision is like “turning on a switch” so the energy can align with it. You do not need to know how this works. What we call “magical” and “miraculous” can be called by many other names. Many scientists have words for the 5th dimensional energy and the alignment of the energies that bring forth – collectively and energetically – to create a substance, or a thing, or an idea in the mind. It is the power within you that has the energy, the switch, in that decision-making to align the
energies of the universe to make it so. Science is proving this; physics is proving it. The mind has an electrical field; it is powerful. If we look at the masters who have been on the planet and have sparked great changes, we can see that they are empowered beings, and yet they are humble. They do not speak of their power, they exhibit it; and they do not speak of themselves as greater than or less than. Nelson Mandela is one example – bringing people together, changing beliefs within himself, becoming his own master. Each and every one of you has that power within you. This was a being who did not show arrogance; not once did he make the decision to be the master that he was. Before that, he had arrogance and anger, and acted out, but in the moment of decision to be, he became. So there is arrogance in not being that in the universe. Disconnecting from the possibility of the divine within you is arrogance, manifesting in your belief that you know better than the God that you are, through your intellect. Those who have been realized masters made the decision on their path to become the full essence of who they are. They had the compassion and desire to be all that they could be, and to show the way to others to be that within themselves. So if one bears witness to another of such likeness, you are that. It is all in the decision to be so. THEO is channeled by world-renowned spiritual medium and author, Sheila Gillette. Sheila and THEO inspired Esther Hicks to channel Abraham. Sheila invites you to spend an extraordinary, inspiring afternoon on Sunday, April 10, 1:00-4:00 p.m., at the Temple of Peace, Haiku.

Twin Flame Convolutions
By Banu Sekendur I have been fortunate to have experienced three twin flame relationships. They turned my life upside down, and brought all of my issues to the surface that had been dormant in the secret crevices of my psyche. They kicked my spiritual growth into high gear in crazy, unexpected ways. A twin flame connection has a deeper purpose that goes beyond the Hollywood image we all have been fed. Your twin flame is a mirror soul with whom you may have experienced many lifetimes before. When twin flames come together, their encounter can create havoc. Individuals who experience this ecstasy can have a hard time detaching from one another to do their inner work. Addictions kick into high gear, and they can’t walk away. They may get very depressed or feel suicidal. The most unromantic aspect of this connection is the desperation it brings up to find healers who can help to navigate the rough waters of this ecstatic, ego-crumbling encounter. This only fuels the ‘hell on earth’ experience. Your twin flame came into your life as a wake-up call. You were destined to meet, to learn to rise above false romantic ideals, and to access unshakable truths that will carry you to the highest, most profound expression of love. If you are facing the turmoil of a twin flame relationship, hold on tight, dear sweet soul. This will be an unforgettable ride. When you get to the other side, you will know why you went through that hell. If the flames of that hell did not melt you into nothing, then you will be sipping your piña colada of spiritual truth by the pool of life – a life that you will mold out of the lava of your own soul’s truths. Welcome home. Banu Sekendur is an intuitive and a relationship coach. She aims to help people grow through the complexities of their relationships. You can contact her at www.workwithbanu.com and www.facebook.com/BanuLLC.

Myth Busting Hypnosis
By Michelle DeStefano, C.Ht. Don’t be fooled. Here are three common myths that prevent people from considering hypnosis for life improvement: Myth #1: “Hypnosis will make me lose control; you will have me clucking like a chicken.” No. Hypnosis actually helps you get back in control of your life and the habits that are good for you. While in hypnosis, you are always aware of your surroundings and what’s being said. You will not do things that you are not comfortable with doing while in a normal state. It just wouldn’t happen. Myth #2: “Hypnosis will make me divulge my deepest secrets.” No, not true. A hypnotist will never get the PIN to your ATM card, or any other information you would not normally give to someone in your normal state of being. While in hypnosis, you are completely aware of what’s going on, what’s being said and what you are saying. Myth #3: “I could get stuck in hypnosis.” No, not true. If you were in a hypnosis session and your hypnotherapist had a heart attack (true story), then after a few moments of not hearing anything from your hypnotherapist, you would automatically become aware that something is happening. You would open your eyes and return back in your normal state of being. Hypnosis has a long history of helping people with many situations; it can help with stress reduction, weight loss, smoking cessation and performance enhancement, to name a few. Hypnosis is a powerful tool that can greatly improve the quality of your life. Don’t let Hollywood or a stage hypnosis show prevent you from taking advantage of this powerful modality. Michelle DeStefano, of Maui Hypnosis Center, is double certified in hypnosis and is a member of both the National Guild of Hypnotists and the American Hypnosis Association. Her specialties are stress reduction and pain management. For upcoming events or free consultations, please visit www.mauihypnosiscenter.com or call 808.283.1003.

Gain More Clients
By Marc Levine Has this happened to you? A beautiful soul asks about your services. Your passion kicks in. You spend ten minutes telling him or her what you do, technical details of how you do it, where it originated, and about every angel, spirit guide or guru who influenced your process. Next, the beautiful soul thanks you and walks away without booking a session. It’s possible this person wasn’t a vibrational match. It’s also possible that through your passion you lost sight of the value for them. You turned a potentially engaging conversation into a monologue, instead of a dialogue. Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Many, through their passion, overwhelm potential clients and cause them to lose interest. However, there are organic ways to create a dialogue and grow your business. Below are a few missteps my clients have made, along with possible solutions. These are game-changing, organic, compassionate and fun. Misstep 1: You talk too fast. Solution: Slow down. Take a conscious breath. Your brain knows more about your offer than their brain. Let their brain catch up. Misstep 2: You assume you know why they need your service. Solution: Ask questions to understand what they care about. They have different life experiences. Tune in to what they need. If you focus on their needs, come from your heart. You’re serving them. Misstep 3: You talk about your offering in the same way with everyone. Solution: Speak to their individual needs/concerns. Make your offer about them. Misstep 4: You don’t want to be pushy and ask for their business. Solution: Ask them to work with you. Here’s to your profits matching your passion! Marc Levine offers heart-centered workshops to grow your business 20-50 percent. In these workshops: You align your words and energy; you master how you speak about your offerings; you easily convey your unique value; you laugh and learn. Soon, your profits match your passion.

Find A Nurturing Balance
By Maribeth Theisen Those of us who value spiritual and emotional growth have long known that feeling nurtured is vital to optimal wellness. We feel physically and emotionally better when we meditate, exercise, give or receive massage, sing, use an essential oil, and so on. Science is validating our experience; nurturing sets off a complex cascading effect of neurotransmitters. Feel-good transmitters, including growth hormone, increase; and stress hormones decrease. Love and bonding create the same result. Holding a child, falling in love, or attending a church or kirtan service envelops us in joy, connection, even bliss. Of these, romantic love produces an even more complex biochemistry with extreme highs and lows. In some, unfortunately, this produces an addictive cycle of pursuing lovers to find fulfillment. However, the attachment and security from a stable relationship is advised by behaviorists. Here are some things to consider: 1. If you aren’t nurturing yourself, it’s time to start. Set aside time to discover and participate in activities that nourish you. 2. If you’re using food, alcohol, tobacco or drugs to manage your mood or stress, recognize that these shortcuts isolate you and reduce your personal power. Number 1 above applies to you. And reach out – connect to other humans, not substances. 3. If you’ve been looking outside yourself for a partner to nourish you, turn your attention inward. Take personal responsibility for your own sense of happiness. A spiritual practice of meditation will give you a sense of empowerment and profound connection that is within you, whether you are alone or involved with someone. 4. If you spend more than a couple hours each day indulged in exercise, meditation or conversations with loved ones, assess whether you need to adjust the balance so you are also productive and engaged in life. After all, we practice self-nurturing to help us more effectively give our gifts to the world. Enjoy the journey to Balance. Maribeth Theisen, MSW, LCSW, CCHT helps herself and others to achieve balance and joy through counseling, hypnotherapy, EMDR, shamanism, angelic healing and other techniques. Visit www.

How To De-stress Your Home
By Cathleen McCandless When you think of creating a healthy home you may think of eliminating toxins (like artificial air fresheners) and dangers (such as exposure to high electromagnetic frequencies). While these steps are important and certainly positive, it is just as necessary to consider how the look and feel of your surroundings influence your mental, physical and emotional health. The main goal of feng shui is to create spaces that feel nurturing and comfortable. Scientific studies by psychologists and biologists prove what feng shui has known for centuries – that our surroundings have a deep impact on our overall health and wellbeing. One of the most important health perks that feng shui provides is stress reduction. Here are seven quick ways to calm your environment and, by extension, yourself. 1. Choose natural materials. Humans are instinctively more comfortable when surrounded by items that originate in nature. 2. Add fresh flowers. Rutgers University found that exposure to flowers lowers blood pressure and helps produce hormones that increase feelings of calm and happiness. 3. Minimize pointed objects and sharp corners in your home. Sharp, pointed objects can increase defensive feelings and, in turn, stress levels. 4. Arrange your seating and sleeping areas so you have a clear view of the door. You’ll feel less tension because you will be able to see what is going on around you. 5. Only display items (including artwork) that you love. 6. Use aromatherapy. Diffusing high-quality essential oils in your surroundings will soothe your body, mind and spirit. 7. In feng shui, the center of the home relates to health. Keep the center of your home clutter-free, and keep any plumbing in that area in perfect working condition. Cathleen McCandless is an internationally-known feng shui expert and author of the #1 best-selling feng shui book, Feng Shui that Makes Sense. For more information, visit www.FengShuiMauiHawaii.com.

Is Your Head On Straight?
By Erin Elster, DC Have you ever been involved in a motor vehicle accident – even a minor fender bender? Have you ever taken a fall, hit your head, and/ or whiplashed your neck? Have you engaged in any high-impact sports such as surfing, soccer, football, gymnastics or horseback riding? If so, you may have sustained a misalignment of your head upon your neck; and without knowing it, you may have been living with, and compensating for, this misalignment for years! The head weighs approximately 10 pounds and is designed to sit precisely upon the center axis of the neck and spine in order to distribute weight properly. If, due to trauma, the head is misaligned off of its center axis, it will sit “crooked” upon the neck. Then the spine will compensate underneath – it will twist, bend and torque in order to cope with the uneven weight distribution above. Symptoms of the head/neck misalignment may include pain in neck, back and joints; inflammation; headaches; vertigo; nerve pain; muscle weakness; low energy; spinal curvature; and abnormal posture – to name a few. In order to determine whether you have sustained a misalignment of your head and neck, you can undergo an evaluation with a chiropractor specializing in the upper cervical (neck) spine. This rare specialty, known as upper cervical care, utilizes two diagnostic tools – thermal imaging and digital x-rays – to accurately assess the alignment of your head and neck. Each patient’s injured neck is corrected by administering a precise adjustment by hand on a specially-designed knee chest table. Many patients notice improvement in symptoms with just a few treatments. With over 20 years of experience as a specialist in the upper cervical spine, upper cervical chiropractor Dr. Erin Elster, D.C., has maintained a practice on Maui for the past three years. For more information or to schedule an appointment, please contact Dr. Elster in Kahului at 808.866.6551, or visit www.erinelster.com.

The Psyche Rules
By Douglas J. Price, D.C. When we nurture ourselves, we are not limited to just remedies, nutritional supplements and exercise, or positive affirmations and/or thoughts that can lead to emotional healing. Though these are wonderful tools, we need to be aware of tracks that relate to conflicts stored in our psyche – people, places and things in our environment that we experience through the senses, which may trigger traumatic events stored in our psyche. For example, people may go shopping in an attempt to satisfy an urge that they need or want to have something. However, often when people get those things, it doesn’t satisfy them. The sense of hunger is still there. To nurture ourselves deeply, we must realize that the psyche rules. Most people don’t realize that these tracks are hiding unexpected traumas from the past that have lodged themselves in the psyche. This is an evolutionary process that works the same way in other mammals; it is a pre-programmed response to help us survive once unexpected trauma takes place. We might think that trying to analyze or figure it out is going to solve it, and that may not always work. Let’s go back to the example of shopping. A person may have a lifelong sense of lack. Perhaps she was the youngest child, and had indigestible anger and resentment that all of her clothes were hand-medowns. That left her feeling that she never had a choice. She felt humiliated wearing clothes that were out of fashion, creating a sense of lack deep down in her spirit. Now, these old wounds may unconsciously drive her to go on shopping sprees. In summary, obtaining true wellbeing may require us to look deeper. Dr. Douglas J. Price, D.C. has over 30 years of experience in chiropractic and kinesiology. His approach to healing is revolutionary; it encompasses both wellness and resolution. Author of Activate Your Brain To Heal Your Body, he teaches online and travels internationally.

Be Well By Choosing Well
By Lila Danielle “Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds’ wings.” - Rumi How do we best be well? How do we nurture ourselves so we not only feel well but we really are well in mind, body and spirit? I like to believe that when we have embodied our deepest presence, when we have been made aware of and are in touch with the very essence of who we really are, our overall wellness expands. It is both a monumental and simple task to turn within on a daily basis, if only for a few moments, and be with your deepest presence. So many things in our lives compete for our attention; our jobs, our family and friends, our own thoughts, emotions and feelings – it’s quite overwhelming. The speed in which we go about living our lives is astonishing when you pause to consider the passing of time and how we so often take it for granted. I do not have the magic formula. I do not have a ten-point plan. I do not have a program that shows you how to embody your deepest presence. What I do have are a few words for you to consider. Be well by choosing well. Create your own magic. Make your own list of what’s most important to you. And then go follow with all your heart what’s in your heart. To act on what is true for you and to be embodied with your deep presence while doing it, is a courageous dance of contracting and expanding. To spend time nurturing yourself in this way is always time well spent. Lila Danielle has enjoyed spending the last five years writing for Maui Vision Magazine. She’s taking her writing and dancing wings closer to heart. You can find her dancing on the beach and playing online here: www.beachdance.com, www.uninhibitedretreat.com, www.sojournmaui.com, www.liladanielle.com.
Why Just Exist When You Can Live— Let’s Get Empowered!
3 Week Empowerment Workshop
By Jenny Grace Shaw, M.ED, LMHC, HHP Do you find yourself “in” the “wrong” relationships over and over and wonder why? Do you use substances, food, weight, work, sex, alcohol, isolation, excuses etc. to “cope” vs. Using your VOICE? Do you find yourself feeling judgmental of others, irritable, moody more than usual? Do you complain about your “problem” but seem to either not follow through with healthier new choices or assume you will never be happy anyway, “so what’s the point?” Do you notice a “pattern” of self-destructive or “drama” in your life? Do you have a tendency to take care of everything and everyone else first –so you can “earn the right for your needs to be met? But this time rarely if ever comes, because there’s always more to take care of first. If you answered “Yes” to most of these questions, this workshop is for YOU!

Identifying Your Ideal Clients
By Taryn Kama You are doing the work you love and that you feel called to do, but you would like to have more of a certain type of client or customer (in other words, the ideal client). You may want more clients with whom time passes quickly and who inspire you when working with them. You might also want clients who pay well and on time! If you want more of these ideal clients, here is an exercise: 1) Identify the qualities of that person; 2) Get clear on how many ideal clients you want and in what time frame (e.g., three per month); 3) Create an imagined persona so that you can consider their needs and where you might find them. The persona should include this information: geographic; demographic (age, gender, socioeconomic level); psychographic (lifestyle, habits); benefits (what customer needs are). For example: “Peggy, 55, lives in Kahului. She just retired as the chief accounting officer of a mid-sized company. She is building her coaching business because she wants to keep working part-time. She knows many would benefit from her services. She is spiritual and loves healthy eating. She loves to go to concerts at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center (MACC). She hikes on the weekends with her partner. She needs some one-time help getting her website set up and a marketing plan in place.” Once you do the steps, you can match your marketing efforts with the persona you created. For example, Peggy might be a Maui Vision reader, shop at one of the local health food stores, and go to shows at the MACC. All of these places would be great places to advertise your services! Taryn Kama is a Maui-based media expert and college professor. She is the owner of Go Get it Media, a business that provides media services and workshops/education on on-line marketing for heartcentered businesses. Visit www.gogetitmedia.com.

Harmonizing With The Moon
By Heather Salmon Moon ceremonies have long been practiced by indigenous cultures from around the world, and they are making their way back into the lives of modern-day people seeking more connection, balance and harmony with the natural world. The moon is associated with the feminine principle; its phases mirror a woman’s menstrual cycle. In fact, “mensis,” the Latin root of menstrual, means “month.” Studies have shown that women are more likely to conceive during the full moon time, and more likely to bleed during the new moon phase. The new moon marks the time when the sun and the moon are in the same astrological sign, which occurs during the dark phase of the moon. From that moment, for approximately the next 29.5 days, we are said to be in the lunar cycle of that particular sign. Being a time of new beginnings, the new moon is a powerful time for rituals of releasing and intention setting. From the new to the full moon, the energy is building and the light is growing. The full moon is seen as the time that brings these intentions to fruition. The light of the full moon also helps to illuminate any blocks to our creations, as well as that which lurks in the shadows and is up for healing and transformation. The time from the full moon to the new moon, it is said to be waning; it is a time of introspection, evaluation, letting go and planning for the next cycle. Moon ceremonies help women and our communities to harmonize our energies and intentions. Studies have proven that when we gather with a focused intention and purpose, the energy becomes amplified and magnified exponentially! Heather Salmon is the founding priestess of the Black Swan Temple, Mystical Alchemy Mystery School and prayerformance group dedicated to creating global transformation through love. She offers Mystical Alchemy sound healing ceremonies, workshops, retreats and Magi initiations, and can be contacted through www.MysticalAlchemy.org or BlackSwanTemple.org.

New Ways To Enhance Energy
Cynthia Monteleone, co-owner of The Maui Sugar Shop in Lahaina, offers up a carrot cupcake with a smile.
Tempting You With Cupcakes, Cream Puffs And Pies, Oh My!
By Lila Danielle She said, “It’s like having my own tea party every day!” when I asked how fun must it be to work in her shop. After spending an hour in this sugar haven on the West Side, I could see why. As the only 100 percent gluten-free bakery on the island, The Maui Sugar Shop is not only perhaps the healthiest and most fun place to hang out if you have a sweet tooth; it may be the most delicious shop to satisfy your desire for decadent desserts. It’s been 18 months since the shop opened its doors in October 2014, and owners Cynthia and Zane Monteleone appear to have successfully tempted and won over both the Lahaina locals and visiting tourists when it comes to their sweet treats. No GMOs, soy ingredients or artificial colors or flavors taint their extensive selection of goodies. The lemon tart with a shortbread crust and lilikoi glaze was delightfully tangy and tasty. The chocolate and vanilla cream puffs were subtly sweet and perfectly textured. The three different kinds of cupcakes we sampled (carrot, almond joy, and apple pie chai) were all rich and luscious and left us wanting to try them all. This is a no-guilt-good-for-you-dessert-dining experience to be had. Contented sighs and big grins could be heard and seen from the steady after-lunch crowd of folks who came in while we were indulging. With turquoise walls, cheery chalkboard signs and plenty of pink accents, the décor matches the exceptionally friendly service. Custommade cakes and pies as well as vegan options are available. In addition to their sweet offerings, they also have bread, quiches and savory tarts. Perhaps the only downside to The Maui Sugar Shop is its somewhat hidden location and limited indoor seating, but don’t you dare let either of those things prevent you from finding this treasure. Once you taste one of their delectable creations and meet either Cynthia or Zane, you won’t care where you sit. What you will care about is when your next visit will be. The Maui Sugar Shop is at 878 Front St. Suite A10, Lahaina (located on the back side of Front Street, across from Bubba Gump’s, into the parking lot, turn right, walk a wee bit and you’ll soon be there). Phone: 808.662.0033. Hours: Mon-Sat, 8am-7:30pm; Sun, 10am-3pm.
By Ayin Adams, Ph.D., Msc.D. Who doesn’t want more energy? Today, the pressures to be “on” and perform at your best all the time are greater than ever before. Americans now spend $12 billion a year on coffee and $9 billion on energy drinks. The success of these energyenhancing drinks points to a huge market, and a challenge to natural wellness practitioners to come up with a healthier alternative. Adams with inventor, Newly opening on Maui is a holistic Ayin Sandra Rose Michael center working in another way to enhance our energy and wellbeing. It utilizes the Energy Enhancement System™ (EES), which according to its inventor, generates multiple bioactive lifeenhancing energy fields. These include “scalar waves” which can allow cell regeneration, improve immune function, provide relief from pain, detoxify the body, elevate moods, and assist in balancing right and left hemispheres of the brain to increase energy levels. Researchers posit the “scalar energy” generated by the EES acts as a charger, boosting the voltage of the cell, making the cell wall more permeable, and facilitating greater intake of nutrients and elimination of waste. Researchers believe every single cell detoxifies. A person receiving treatment simply relaxes in a room with electronic equipment that generates the healing field. As an alternative treatment, the EES system is not FDA-approved to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. However, Terry Shintani, MD, JD, MPH, respected Hawaii medical doctor and acclaimed author of the books The Hawaii Diet and The Peace Diet, is an advocate. His case study on the EES was published in the Journal of Neurology Research in 2012. Dr. Shintani’s study successfully reduced the incidence of seizures in an autistic child from 6 to 8 per day, to none over a period of a few weeks, attributing the success to the use of the EES. Invented by Sandra Rose Michael, EES systems have been installed worldwide and are now on Maui at Holistically Alive.

Ask And Listen
By Rich Ralston Some of the people who come to me for energy work are experiencing a turning point in their lives. They understand that they need to make changes, but they are puzzled about how to do it. Many times they find themselves in a cycle of negative behavior, not knowing how to change. When a person desires to make positive changes in his or her life, it requires him or her to first recognize the negative patterns of behavior. And it requires the release of these patterns. The key is for us to ask ourselves, what needs to be released from the past in order to move ahead. We must listen to our inner guidance to get the answer. Because our physical condition often reflects our emotional wellbeing, it is helpful to pay attention to how our body feels while dealing with circumstances we face. We need to pay attention to ourselves. Most of the energy work that I do involves helping people release old beliefs that have been creating stress, fear and confusion, and re-establish new beliefs. This may be very difficult if we have been conditioned to believe that what our lives have been in the past is just our fate, and there is no way our future can be brighter. If you are in a similar situation, then it may be time for you to seek guidance. This island has so many talented healers who can offer support and creative solutions. I am only one of many. Your responsibility to yourself is to ask and then listen. Trust that your soul will guide you to the appropriate action that needs to be taken. Rich Ralston is a clairvoyant energy worker and healer. His abilities include chakra clearing and energy release instruction, past life karma clearing, communication with souls of the dead as well as crossing them over, and remote healing.

Helping Autism Caregivers
By Susan Varsames, M.A.Ed. April is Autism Awareness Month, and at this time, prevalence is 1:68 children. For caregivers of children with special needs, awareness isn’t the issue; they are very aware of the daily complexities of the diagnosis they are managing. A recent study states that caregivers demonstrate similar stress hormone levels as soldiers with PTSD. Caregiver stresses include: • Learning about the disability, connecting with others who can answer questions; • Researching and securing effective treatments, schools, and medical staff; • Securing and managing finances and insurance coverage for medical, educational and therapeutic services; • Managing the physical and emotional aspects of caring for both the child with autism and other siblings/family members. This includes the need to lift/carry/assist children physically, as well as manage worries over finances, future planning, and resentment that they may not access the same activities as their same-aged peers; and • Emotional stress/grief over shattered hopes, dreams and aspirations planned for during pregnancy. Managing stress is a key component to the long-term health of caregivers. Here are tips that families find useful: • Gather information at your own pace! Do not lose sleep researching; rather, go to support and information groups specifically connected to autism. • Take scheduled breaks! Make lunch dates, plan date nights with your partner, and take a few minutes to relax daily! Eat well, exercise, and say “yes!” when asked “Is there anything I can do for you?” • Surround yourself with positive supports: support meetings that schools host, community gatherings that are inclusive for all kids, etc. • Remember that every child is a gift. Some gifts have a lot of unwrapping to do before they are revealed, but your child is full of love and potential for a beautiful life. Susan Varsames, M.A.Ed. is the owner for Holistic Learning Center of Maui. She offers a multitude of services for caregivers of children with autism spectrum disorders.
