Hello, dear readers and happy holidays!

Moises Siperstein, M.D., P.A. • 772-337-7811

I am excited to share our Thanksgiving & Christmas issue with you. I love the holidays; it is my favorite time of the year. I look forward to family traditions, making homemade goodies, spending time with friends and of course cooler weather. This means I get to wear my boots more often.

In the spirit of giving and receiving, it is the season to reach out in a big way to our community by meeting some holiday needs. This year Better Living Magazine has selected two organizations to support, Operation Christmas Child & PATCHES. You may have heard about these charities and support them. If not please take a moment to see if this is something your family may want to be involved in this year.

I want to thank the local merchants, who have participated in our “Turkeys & Trees” special advertisements campaign. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to ensure that holiday needs are fulfilled.

It remains my goal to publish a quality magazine. I hope you have enjoyed the informative additions in Better Living & Marketplace Magazine this last issue; Featured articles by The Whispering Warrior, Columnist of “From the Inside Out” Melissa Brodzinski, Joanne Augusto, columnist of “Holistic Living”, and “The Taste”

by Armita Fucci.

A special thank you to my readers who took the time to contact me and offer compliments.

Blessings of Abundance

any of us have heard about the wonderful project; Operation Christmas Child and the organizations prominent founder; Franklin Graham. Here’s something you may not have heard.

It was an honor to get an inside view of the impact a simple shoebox made on one young lady’s life. Yuri Lopez, from Honduras, shared her story at GRACE CHURCH in Port St Lucie this past month. Thank you pastor Ken Hagen for hosting.

Yuri experienced many challenges and heartache.

There were times when she recalls running off to the foot of the mountains with her box. Sitting in sadness she would look at the picture and read the letter that was tucked inside. This gave Yuri Hope that someday God would answer her prayer of taking her far away from the village. Yuri endured a hostile home life that was

Today Yuri dedicates her time to giving back to those in need. She disciples kids and actively serves in her community where she resides, Tennessee. Close to her heart will always be; Samaritan’s Purse – Operation Christmas Child. Yuri referenced a scripture during her story and I believe she held on tight to this one; Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

I also had the privilege of spending some time with Paula Grossman, TC Area Coordinator for Operation Christmas Child. Paula is a resident of St Lucie County, married for 47 years and has two sons, three grandchildren and a

Miss Lopez, now a beautiful young lady was only 6 years old when she received her first Christmas Shoebox. As I listened to her passionately describe, recalling each item as if it were yesterday. I could tell that moment was embedded in Yuri’s heart. Little did she know that someday it would change her life drastically for the better.

Her story was sad. She was an orphan at the age of two, living in an impoverished country, no parents, separated from her twin sister and was shuffled around to 14 different orphanages. Yuri’s child & teenage years were hard to hear about and it was difficult to keep a dry eye. Yet what I remember most about her story was her optimism and hope. It was apparent, the love that came out of her desperate times made me realize how important the simplest of things are and to give to those less fortunate.

wonderful dog.

Her desire is to increase community volunteers and their involvement throughout the year.

Paula has been a part of the area team for the past five years and works tirelessly for this cause. Recently she visited Uganda and witnessed the poorest of children living in the worst condition imaginable. They smiled and laughed as they opened the boxes. Beyond rewarding!

Paula also shared a few specific memories of children who had received their box. One box was only full of socks, nothing else. At first Paula was concerned but watched our amazing God in action. The child who received this particular box was a burn victim and the doctor had stated the importance of clean socks every day. Nice reminder of a loving God who’s in control.

7. Consume at least one super food/supplement a day. Try a green drink (Garden of Life makes one that tastes like apples, it’s amazing) We do not consume enough nourishing and alkalizing veggies each day. There are a few companies that make non GMO healthy shakes that have probiotics, enzymes and super foods to give you energy all day and nutrients to keep your immune system up.

6. Begin your day with water. Squeeze lemon or lime into 8 oz. At the end of each day you should have consumed at least 64oz of water. I find it easiest to have 6-8oz every waking hour. It takes off the pressure to the bladder and your body won’t get dehydrated.

3. Take three two minute breathing breaks. Deep breathing thru your nose can enhance immunity, cleanse your lymph system and relax your body.

From the Inside Out Healing Raindrops

By Melissa Brodzinski, owner of Skin Fitness Studios Many of us walk around in chronic pain every day and have no idea how to obtain relief without resorting to surgeries and pharmaceutical pain relievers. Chronic aches and pains are not to be thought of as a curse. They are your body’s way of saying, “Listen to me, something is not right.”

What if there was a treatment that not only reduced the pain but helped to balance and heal the body and spirit as well?

Raindrop technique is a powerful technique using essential oils that was developed by D. Gary Young in the 1980s. It combines several holistic modalities to bring balance and alignment to the body in a non-invasive manner. It also stimulates all the body systems on a physical and emotionally level.

wintergreen, thyme and peppermint, are used in this technique.

• Relax Muscles – Muscles that are sore, spastic or stressed will also benefit. Basil, wintergreen, marjoram, cypress and peppermint essential oils help with all the common muscle conditions.
