No More Excuses I consider myself an average Jane when it comes to my level of fitness. I did softball and volleyball in high school and continue to play in softball leagues for fun over the summer. I’ve attempted various home workouts — programs I found online or just going for a walk or jog — but I could never seem to motivate myself to keep up with it.

As soon as it began to get colder outside, I began to lose my opportunities to walk and jog, and the excuses to not workout began to grow. Being a little intimidated by the gym I was not intrigued to sign up for a membership.

Where would I even begin? Having limited space in my bedroom, it was difficult to do much more than a standard routine of sit-ups and push-ups and I seemed to be lacking the self-motivation to keep up with even that.

I needed something that would push me and challenge me, and most importantly I needed someone other than myself, to hold me accountable. That’s when I begin to hear about CrossFit. I was quite reluctant of it at first. Hearing a co-worker grunt and groan throughout the day after she had just spent her morning in the gym was not encouragement for me. But the more she did it and shared her stories of how much more powerful and energetic she was beginning to feel, and seeing her excited about completing her workouts in the top of her class, it started to make me feel a little intrigued. And I do love a good challenge.

It was time to stop making excuses. In this issue of HerSide, I share with you my journey discovering one of the popular fitness crazes: CrossFit. While I may not have any strong visual progress to share with readers just yet, I can tell you I have noticed some changes in the way I feel.

I can feel my strength and endurance building and I enjoy the release I get from working out all my daily stresses.

If you’re still not convinced that CrossFit is the right avenue for you, you will find this issue filled with great advice on starting your new year off right. We continue our New Year, New You theme with a focus on fitness and encouraging you to stick with that New Year’s Resolution of shedding a few pounds.

There are many apps out there that put hundreds of workouts and nutrition info right at your fingertips. You carry your handheld device with you everywhere, why not turn it into your new personal trainer.

Find time for fitness. The biggest complaint from men and women alike is not having time to go to the gym.

Work small fitness related activities into your daily schedule: go for a walk on your lunch break and work out while catching up on your favorite TV shows. Use our article on page 10 to help you work a little time for fitness into your busy schedule.

Don’t feel too overwhelmed by our fitness inspired edition. This issue continues to bring you many of the health, beauty and home décor tips that you love. You’ll want to read this edition cover to cover as we reveal the results of our first ever bachelor contest.

This edition just gets more and more exciting as we also present to you our first ever Woman Of The Year.

2

We received many wonderful nominations that really touched our hearts and made our decision tough. We feel we made the right choice as this wonderful lady uses her talents as an artist to reach out and help heal the hearts of families who have lost a child. Her big heart deserves a shout out and her bright personality can make anyone feel at ease.

It seems we have covered a lot of ground in this edition of HerSide. I hope that this issue can be an inspiration to all women who have contemplated taking on the New Year with a new outlook on life.

No more excuses. As always, I hope that this issue has something for everyone to enjoy. Now kick back and take in every page.

Today’s technology has made it simple to keep track of your fitness and have all the information right at your fingertips. If you’re someone who is intimidated by the gym atmosphere and prefer working out in the comfort of your own home, here are a couple apps that have been sampled and enjoyed by our HerSide staff members.

MapMyFitness: MapMyRide, MapMyRun and MapMyWalk are some of the GPS enabled apps powered

by MapMyFitness, Inc. Each app is geared towards keeping track of the type of activity you enjoy the most. The user friendly interface makes it easy to get started. Simply create a new profile or link to your facebook account to get started. Check out nearby routes created by others using the app in your area. Map out a course of your own with the GPS map and keep track of your workouts. You can compare your time and distance each time you do a workout and track your progress. Record your food intake for the day in the nutrition section and set your calorie budget. Connect with friends to share your progress and motivate yourself to keep up with one another or simply use the app for your own benefit.

MyFitnessPal: Powered by MyFitnessPal, Inc., this app is very similar to MapMyFitness apps. Working simply as a calorie counter, this app makes it easy to have your food journal always in hand.

Record your breakfast, lunch, dinner and any snacks you may eat during the day. Choose from a database of over 3 million food items pre-logged with calories assigned to each item. Record any physical activity or strength training you performed that day along with the amount of time spent on each and see how the calories are burned in each exercise. Set goals and track your progress. Share your progress with friends or keep the app to yourself.

Couch 2 5k: I have always thought running looks like an attainable exercise regimen that I could commit to - but I always end up frustrated and not going any where, except back to my couch. I recently discovered an app for running that promises to cure my previous runner's remorse. This app promises to have me running a 5 K by the end of nine weeks! The userfriendly app really does baby step an inexperienced runner, like myself, into running with the pros. It starts with a mild combination of walking and jogging and eventually works up to all running. Each workout starts with a brisk five minute walk to warm up. Weeks one and two focus on walking and briefly running at different intervals. By week three the app starts to measure your distance, which really helps challenge the runner to continue once they see their acheivements. Might I add, that this is a great feature that motivates quick quitters, like myself. By week four, runners are now up to the two mile mark - all within the first month! During weeks five and six, the runner is now mostly jogging with less walking.

By weeks seven, eight and nine, walking has been completely eliminated. It only takes 2030 minutes a day, three times a week - completely attainable.

Pinterest: This social media tool serves as an inspiration board for many different aspects of people’s lives. Health and fitness is just one of those areas where one can be inspired to turn over a new leaf. Exploring the health and fitness categories on pinterest can open a whole new world of workout schedules and healthy recipes. The best part is, you can design your own workout challenges that focus on cardiovascular or strength training exercises you enjoy.

Find instructional videos or graphics to guide you through each of them. Explore mouth watering recipes that are better for you and maybe even make you an expert in the kitchen.

)LQG 7LPH )RU )LWQHVV Finding time to exercise is no small feat for many men and women. Obligations at home and at the ofďŹ ce can make it hard to ďŹ t in a workout, a familiar quandary for men and women with multiple commitments.

Though it's not always easy to ďŹ t in a workout when juggling multiple responsibilities, men and women must consider the responsibility they have with regard to maintaining their physical and mental health. The United States Department of Health and Human Services advises that healthy adults get at least 150 minutes a week of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes a week of vigorous aerobic activity, and that such activity should be spread out over the course of the week. In addition, the DHHS also advises that healthy adults include strength training exercises in their workout regimens at least twice a week. Such a workout schedule can improve both physical and mental health, making it easier for men and women to handle their hectic schedules.

While such recommendations may seem manageable, many still feel as if there's just not enough time in the day for them to incorporate a daily exercise regimen.

The following are a few ways such men and women can ďŹ nd time for ďŹ tness.

* Take a walking lunch. Many professionals have heard of a "working lunch," but those strapped for time to exercise might want to take a walking lunch instead. Rather than sitting at your desk or in your favorite booth at a nearby restaurant on your lunch hour each day, consider squeezing in some time to walk during those 30-60 minutes you normally spend eating or catching up on ofďŹ ce gossip with coworkers.

Invite a few coworkers along, walking to and from your favorite restaurant or ďŹ nding a nearby park and going for a quick walk. This is an easy way to squeeze in the recommended 30 minutes of moderate aerobic activity each day, and you will no doubt feel more energized after lunch than if you had simply eaten without exercising. * Exercise in the morning. Research has shown that men and women who exercise in the mornings exercise on a more consistent basis than those who exercise later in the day, including after leaving the ofďŹ ce at the end of the workday. When exercising in the early morning hours, men and women are less likely to encounter scheduling conďŹ&#x201A;icts, as coworkers, colleagues and even the kids will likely still be asleep. That means fewer interrupted or missed workouts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Time for Fitnessâ&#x20AC;? Continued on Page 28

If you have seen any of the CrossFit games on TV or looked up some workouts online out of curiosity, you may have noticed quite a bit of intensity going into these workouts.

The bulging muscles and high endurance of the athletes can be just enough to make you change your mind as to ever considering this as a workout for you.

However intense it may be, it sure didn’t seem to keep CrossFit gyms from popping up all over Wayne and Holmes counties and attracting many workout fanatics and curious souls alike into their gyms. I even found myself being lured into the “box” myself.

I’ll admit, I was negative towards the whole idea at first.

Here I am, a woman who is on the curvy side and enjoys her food as much as the next person and I have someone in front of me telling me I need to put the chocolate down and start doing 100 burpees to make up for it.

OK, maybe that was a little drastic, but as if the intensity of the workout wasn’t enough, I had trainers giving me diet suggestions that seemed a bit overkill for my lifestyle. I understood the workouts alone were not going to be enough to get that killer physique I have been dreaming of, but I felt

14

fairly confident that I could make the right food choices for myself.

So in spite of my premature, negative feelings toward the whole situation, I decided to take the whole “don’t knock it till you try it” approach. Declaration CrossFit had just opened up in Wooster and it turns out it would be on my way home from work each day … so no more excuses.

When I entered the gym for the first time I was greeted by two very fit, very cheery women who had definitely “drank the kool-aid.” (In other words, they were CrossFit fanatics.)

Samantha Stine, co-owner, along with her sister Janine Lytle, co-owner, were quite excited to have their next victim in front of them and ready for the challenge.

Stine reassured me I had already overcome the biggest battle. “The hardest part is walking through that door,” she said. Feeling a little more confident, I listened as she explained what CrossFit is all about.

“It’s all in your head,” she said. “If the coach says, ‘you’re going to do this today,’ you train your mind to do it.

You can scale down any workout to make it more manageable for you and it makes you better at life in general,” said Stine.

CrossFit makes you better at life in general. It teaches you how to efficiently and effectively get through life.

-Samantha Stine, Declaration CrossFit

What is CrossFit? CrossFit combines a lot of core workouts and targets many different body parts, explained Andrea Wenger, personal trainer at Zephyrs 24 Hour Fitness in Orrville. “It targets strength, cardio, abs and lifting.”

It was founded by Greg Glassman in 2000 and is the principle strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes. (What is CrossFit?, www.crossfit.com ) CrossFit is designed to be scalable whether you’re an Olympic lifter, an average Jane, or an elderly individual looking to stay mobile. The program stays the same with only the load and intensity changing per individual.

“CrossFit gyms generally function as a stand alone,” said Diane Jerrett, co-owner of Zephyrs 24 Hour Fitness in Orrville. When a new gym is developed it is called a box.

“You can have CrossFit instruction in a gym but the workouts are generally kept separate from the mainstream gyms,” said Jerrett.

“Certification to open a CrossFit facility requires around 20 hours of classwork followed by a written test at the end,” said Stine. “The idea is to make sure that everyone who is interested in opening a box has the knowledge and

understanding of what CrossFit does for you and your body.”

“It does great things for people,” said Wenger.

“CrossFit makes you better at life in general,” said Stine.

“It teaches you how to efficiently and effectively get through life.”

It can be an accomplished feeling to be able to go up the steps and not run out of breath or reach on top of the fridge and not pull a muscle. Everyday household chores and movements suddenly become easier.

However, “You can’t just do CrossFit. You need to be well rounded,” said Wenger. “Diet and functional movement are emphasized and are key in your daily activities and daily living,” added Jerrett.

When I began my CrossFit training, I didn’t have to fear being thrown in with a class from the start and trying to keep up. I spent my first week in what they call “on-ramp,” where you learn the basic lifts and techniques that will be used in many workouts.

CrossFit has its own language. If you hear coaches and fellow CrossFitters exchanging terms like WOD, AMRAP, Rx, snatch and thrusters, (just to name a few,) you may find yourself scratching your head and wondering if you heard that right.

CrossFit is getting people excited about fitness again. You feel great when you do something you couldn’t do before.

-Andrea Wenger, Zephyrs

WOD is your “workout of the day” and will be utilized each day you go to the gym. AMRAP stands for “as many rounds as possible” while Rx is very similar to what you see at the pharmacy. It is the prescribed weight or time for any given workout. Snatch and thruster are both lifting terms.

At the end of my basic training for the day, I was given a smaller scale WOD to work through to get the idea of how CrossFit worked.

It wasn’t long before I was a part of regular classes. Being a competitive person, it was a little discouraging at first to be so far behind everyone else. I settled in to the fact that it would take some time before I would be up to speed with everyone else, but on the same token it pushed me to work harder than I would have done by myself.

It was hard for me to grasp at first, that the weight was not just going to come off. I was actually feeling my clothes get a little tighter after the first few weeks on the account that I was building muscle. Having only tried this for 30 days, I knew that if I truly wanted to see results this is something I would have to keep up with.

The CrossFit community that you become a part of makes the experience that much more enjoyable and makes you want to keep up with it. You make friends with those in your class and suddenly you are held accountable if you don’t show up for class.

“It’s just average people coming in to be better,” said Stine.

“It’s a nice group training program with a lot of different ages,” said Wenger.

I found myself in classes with high school aged kids, to women and men my age (in their 20’s), all the way up to those in their 50’s, 60’s and even 70’s.

Penny Cosentino, 50, joined Declaration CrossFit in October because she was not ok with being told “there is nothing you can do” and “this is just how it has to be.”

“For the last 10 years I have been going through mid-life

’’

changes. I’ve tried all kinds of diet and weight loss plans and was not successful,” said Consentino.

As a licensed massage therapists she had one of her clients suggest she check out CrossFit. “When I first walked in the door, I came in and Sam [Stein] was the only one here. The music was blaring and she was over doing handstand push-ups against the wall. She had probably pounded out 10-12 of them before she noticed me standing there. She came over and asked how she could help me. I said, ‘I want you to get me to do what you just did,’” said Consentino. “’Give me a year,’ she said.”

With Sam and Janine’s encouragement along with coach JP Lytle, brother to Sam and Janine and co-owner at Declaration CrossFit, encouraging her not to look at the scale, Consentino has pushed on in her endeavor to do a handstand pushup.

“I know the weight is not going to fall off for me, but that is ok. I’m in it for the long haul,” said Consentino. “It’s more about how I feel and I feel stronger. Day-to-day activities are easier and I have less aches and pains.”

One of the hardest things for Penny to get over was the stigma that “we should look matronly. Women should have a little weight. We feel that’s the way we are supposed to be but that is not the case,” said Consentino.

“CrossFit is getting people excited about fitness again,” said Wenger. “You feel great when you do something you couldn’t do before.”

I think what I have enjoyed most about my time with CrossFit is the sense of community that comes with it all.

While I may not have the visual results I am looking for just yet, I can already feel myself getting stronger in some areas and my endurance is gradually increasing.

Every workout is different and challenging enough to make you push yourself to a new personal best. I encourage everyone to take the “don’t knock it till you try it” approach and discover the world of CrossFit for yourself.

Knee Preservation 9 Q] # iUQbc _\T Q^T XQfU RUU^ Q^ QfYT be^^Ub V_b dXU `Qcd !# iUQbc E^V_bde^QdU\i UhSUccYfU UhUbSYcU XQc \UVd ]U gYdX SXb_^YS [^UU `QY^ 9 VUQb Q [^UU bU`\QSU]U^d Yc Y^ dXU ^UQb VedebU Yc dXUbU Q^_dXUb _`dY_^ d_ cd_` dXU `QY^/ If you are having any joint pain in your knees, it is important to seek medical attention from your doctor. If you are under the age of 40 then you may be a candidate for a form of knee preservation surgery known as cartilage restoration.

Cartilage restoration consists of multiple surgical techniques to include microfracture, osteochondral autograft transplant, osteochondral allograft transplant and autologous chondrocyte implantation. These techniques are used to relieve common knee cartilage problems as naturally as possible without requiring a full knee replacement. The concept of joint preservation comes from the idea that even though prosthetic joints are durable and provide relief, they do not have the same restorative capacity as your own native joints.

To first diagnose your condition and cause of the joint pain, your doctor will ask you a series of questions followed by a physical exam. This exam could include an X-Ray, CT Scan or MRI to get a better view of the skeletal structure and tissues in your knee.

In most cases cartilage restoration does require surgery to repair any damaged tissue often in conjunction with injured meniscus or ligaments that may be causing the knee to not function properly. One common, less invasive surgery used to evaluate the knee is arthroscopy. This type of surgery procedure requires your doctor to make two to three small incisions around the joint to insert a small camera to see the injured area, repair or debride the damaged tissue, and determine which type of cartilage restoration procedure is best indicated for you. Recovery from a knee arthroscopy can be quick and successfully get patients back on their feet within a few days to a few weeks. Arthroscopy has also been found to be very effective when combined with a post-operative rehabilitation and physical therapy program for one to two weeks after surgery to make sure patients have a range of motion and proper muscle use in their knees.

Other cartilage preservation techniques will take longer to recover, sometimes up to one year. However, the long term goal of these techniques is to give the athlete a more functional, anatomic knee that allows him to continue with his activities with decreased pain and improved function.

Ultimately, to determine if an athlete or patient is a good candidate for these procedures requires an in-depth discussion with the treating orthopaedic surgeon and an understanding of the benefits and limitations of each technique.

It’s critical that the surgeon and athlete have an understanding of each person’s expectations in order to have the most successful outcome.

Keeping it Off: Tips from the Best Losers

'

o you struggle to keep off those pounds that you worked so hard to lose last year? Sadly, the majority of persons who lose weight quickly gain it back within 2 years or less. Only a fraction of those who lose weight manage to keep it off for a long time.

Determining the essential tools for keeping off those unwanted pounds is critical to long-term weight loss success.

Fortunately, the NWCR (National Weight Control Registry) has provided us with an abundance of valuable data. This is a long-term research study with more than 10,000 participants who have lost more than 30 pounds and kept it off more than one year. The study was founded and is currently overseen by Dr. Rena Wing of Brown University and Dr. James Hill at the University of Colorado. The following are some of the most important ďŹ ndings from this ongoing study.

Regular exercise appears to be the single most important ingredient for maintaining long-term weight loss. According to the most recent Time Use Survey conducted by the US Census Bureau, the average American aged 18-64 spends 17 minutes per day engaged in regular physical activity. On the other hand, participants in the NWCR exercised an average of 60 minutes per day at a moderate level. This level of exercise far exceeds the average for most Americans.

Most people incorrectly assume that exercise helps us keep our weight off by simply burning up more calories. More importantly, regular exercise enhances our brain chemistry.

People who exercise frequently make better decisions, sleep better, delay food gratiďŹ cation more easily, and associate more often with others who share their passion for exercise. Much

more than just burning calories, vigorous exercise can help reprogram your brain for success.

Find an exercise that you enjoy doing. Do it with friends. Plan to run a 5k or a half marathon this year. Maybe even make a goal to walk a marathon in one day!

Which diet do most long-term weight loss maintainers follow?

The data from the NWCR suggests that most often it is a low calorie, low fat diet plan. Other diets (low carb, vegan, etc) may be needed in the short term but a simple low sugar, low reďŹ ned carbohydrate, reduced fat, and balanced diet is best in the longer term.

Another remarkable characteristic of successful losers is that they almost always eat breakfast. Starting your day with a meal probably boosts your metabolism and helps to keep your stress hormone levels a little lower. Make sure your breakfast is a balanced meal with adequate protein.

Get enough sleep! Numerous studies have shown that those who sleep less than 6 hours per night are heavier than those who sleep longer. Lack of sleep increases stress hormone levels that intensify cravings and results in loss of eating control.

Finally, ďŹ nd a good cause that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re passionate about and commit your time and resources to helping others. Working for a good cause can lower stress hormone levels and reduce cravings.

“Everyone knows somebody who has lost a child,” said Robyn Hart, nominator and dear friend to HerSide’s first Woman of the Year.

Thousands of children are diagnosed with cancer and thousands of children pass away due to cancer-related illnesses every year. Losing a child can be the most heartbreaking thing a parent has to deal with, especially when the last memories are of the child hooked up to a machine, fighting for life. How does one get passed that image and begin the healing process?

Patricia Krueger-Harding, a passionate artist from Sterling, Ohio, found herself at a crossroads.

After losing her best friend to cancer, she became very frustrated with God. “I lost my best girlfriend to ovarian cancer. For two years I stood by her side and helped her through it,” said Patricia. “She was a hairdresser and when she began to lose her own hair she wrapped it up in a turban. We used to joke about how she should just shave her head and I could paint on it. We would laugh for hours about it.”

“When she finally passed away, I had a hard time dealing with it. I kept asking God why her? Why do you have to take the good ones? I remember driving home and just banging on the steering wheel I was so upset,” she said. “Finally, I came to the realization that it’s not for us to know why.”

She tried to escape through her paintings, but she found herself struggling to find a true meaning for her work. “ So next I asked God; you gave me this talent, what can I do with it?” Patricia heard, “Paint the children and paint them well.”

Not knowing what this meant, Patricia asked God, “what children?” Her answer was “St. Jude.”

Patricia couldn’t believe what a huge undertaking that would be for one person so she shyed away from it at first.

Many opportunities came her way from 1991 to 2002 but Patricia continued to worry that she wouldn’t be good enough and feared that the families might not even like what she painted.

When she turned 50 in 2002, Patricia asked God, “Why haven’t I succeeded as an artist?” His response was very clear: “You didn’t paint the children.”

“You’re right, I’m ready,” she replied. “I know you won’t give me more than I can handle.”

It wasn’t long after she had accepted her new path as an artist, when her phone rang. It was an unknown number and when Patricia answered it she heard, “I heard you want to paint the children.” She couldn’t believe her ears. God already had his plan in motion once Patricia accepted her new path.

The unknown number ended up being a contact for the Aladdin Foundation in Akron (very similar to the Make a Wish Foundation). The caller put her in touch with Akron Children’s Hospital where she began her new career.

Background on Patricia: Patricia grew up in the little town of Hinckley, Ohio, as the second oldest of seven children. She began painting when she was just 6 years old.

“My father worked with me and I drew with crayons,” said Patricia. “He made me my first pallet.”

She began by doing paint by number pictures, but grew tired of trying to find all the little numbers in the picture. “I told my dad, I want to paint,” said Patricia.

The first picture she ever painted was an oil painting because of her dad. Later, she would to take watercolor classes from Franklin Bates.

“He taught speed. The water color begins to turn to mud if you don’t continue to play with it,” she said. So Patricia found herself gravitating back to her oil based paints. She now uses a fast drying oil to give that life-like look to her portraits.

In high school, her art teacher, Beverly Melrose, encouraged her to keep up with her portraits. “She saw my ability to draw figures and drilled it into me,” said Patricia.

When Patricia grew tired of drawing portraits she asked if she could try something else, but her teacher refused. When she finally broke down and let Patricia try her hand at pottery, her piece didn’t quite turn out quite right. “ ‘See,’ she would tell me. ‘That’s why you should just stick with your portraits,’” said Patricia jokingly.

Patricia never went to college. She improved her skill through self-teaching methods and by following mentors.

Her last mentor, Jim Seward, passed away just two years ago and Patricia can remember closely watching him as he

worked and trying to mimic his style. She remembers the day fondly when she was finally asked by Seward to help fix a painting he was working on. In that moment the mentor had become the mentee.

She met her first husband, Darrell Krueger, in high school and they found their dream home in Creston. Unfortunately, she was forced to give up her studio space in the home when her husband needed an office.

An old high school friend, John Harding, had a home in Sterling with an extra bedroom. He offered it to Patricia, but she often felt uncomfortable taking over his home and playing her music as she got lost in her paintings. Eventually she moved her studio to the basement of the home but vowed that she would someday work in the sunshine.

In 2006, her dream studio began to take shape. Friends and family came together and helped her to build her new studio from the ground up. She received lots of donations from locals who knew her story and wanted to give her a place where she could truly paint the children well.

“Lots of people have great big hearts,” said Patricia. “I have a hard time accepting things from other people. I’m a giver.”

In 2008 her dream studio was finished and Patricia took each little detail to heart. The hand-painted concrete floor resembles a real stone floor that fills the entire space. Upon entering the studio, you walk-in to an elegant gallery with deep purple walls covered with her large oil paintings.

Rounding the wall in the center of the room, you enter the studio space. Surrounded by her favorite paintings, Patricia’s large easel and collection of paintbrushes sits to the right. An elegant seating area sits just to the left.

After her husband passed away, Patricia found love again in her dear friend John. They were married in April 2013.

It’s been quite a journey for Patricia and she is grateful each day for the path she was given. “I love what I do,” she said.

Patricia has been painting the children on her own since 2002. In 2010, with the help of her friend Robyn, she received her non-profit status for Faces of Angels.

“It really starts the healing process. It’s amazing what she does,” said Robyn.

painting as if the child was actually there in front of them.

When she has completed a painting, she invites the family to her studio to pick the painting up or she goes to them and presents the painting to them absolutely free.

Patricia knows that she cannot paint all the children on her own and one day when she is gone she hopes that Faces of Angels will continue. Currently, the two sons of her late mentor, Jim Seward, work for her and while Patricia has no problem working for free, she knows she cannot expect other artists to work for free as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a vision of artists stationed all over to reach out to different areas and paint the children,â&#x20AC;? said Patricia.

With the help of her friend, Robyn, they have pursued grants but have been unsuccessful so far. Patricia knows that God will provide in good time, and she has been incredibly thankful for any donations she does receive.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Darrell and I would just sit there and watch her work,â&#x20AC;? said John. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She gets totally involved in whatever painting she is working on. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing when she ďŹ nishes a painting; how did she know, not only did that kid play guitar, but she managed to paint the exact guitar without knowing what it looked like.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before I start any painting, I ask the person, how do you want people to remember you. Then I just wait for the answer,â&#x20AC;? said Patricia. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Eventually something just clicks and I know thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I need to paint.â&#x20AC;?

She paints the children well. No IV tubes, no tumors, not even a trace of sickness can be found in the bright smiling faces of the children she paints; even though the photos she is sent of the child reďŹ&#x201A;ects their illness. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When a child is sick, the family is more concerned with getting them well again. They are not concerned with taking pictures,â&#x20AC;? said Patricia.

One mother asked upon receiving a portrait of her little girl, â&#x20AC;&#x153;How did you capture the spirit of my daughter but you never knew her?â&#x20AC;? Patricia had painted her sitting on a bench in a garden with her legs crossed â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a trait that Patricia never knew about the girl.

She paints the children in settings that tell the story of the child even if she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know the whole story. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I paint what I feel,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Seeing the expressions on the faces of family members when they see the portrait for the ďŹ rst time is what really makes what Patricia does worthwhile. Sometimes there are no words as they just stare and touch, and even hug the

'DWHQLJKWV $ '-!' h,4 2 *HWDZD\V Facts & Superstitions Every February 14th people around the world exchange gifts, chocolates and romantic greetings for a day set aside for lovers. Many traditions are followed, all in the name of St. Valentine. Still, people may not understand why such customs are upheld. Much of the history of Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day and St. Valentine himself is shrouded in mystery, and much of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s widely accepted is inaccurate. To set the record straight, here are some facts about the holiday. * Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day is believed to have originated from a celebration in Rome during the ďŹ fth century. This celebration paid tribute to St. Valentine, a Catholic priest.

Other historians surmise it was a way to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Christianizeâ&#x20AC;? the pagan holiday of Lupercalia, which was a fertility festival. Included in the traditions were boys and girls drawing names from a box and exchanging gifts. * The Catholic Church acknowledges at least three different saints named Valentine or Valentinus. * All of the stories surrounding St. Valentine -- whether they are disputed or not -- paint him as a sympathetic and heroic individual. * Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day greetings have been popular from the Middle Ages onward, though they have been usually verbal in nature. * The oldest known written valentine still in existence today was a poem written in 1415 by Charles, Duke of Orleans, to his wife while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London following his capture at the Battle of Agincourt. * Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day is celebrated in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, France, and Australia. * Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day and Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day are the most popular holidays to give ďŹ&#x201A;owers. * According to Hallmark, women purchase 85 percent of all valentines. * According to the Greeting Card Association, an estimated one billion Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day cards are sent each year, making Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year behind Christmas.

* Candy was among the earliest Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day gifts and remains a popular gift today. * Some tales suggest that the type of bird a girl watches on Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day predicts her future husband. A bluebird indicates a happy man, while a sparrow indicates a poor man. *In Medieval times, girls consumed unusual foods on Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day in the belief it would make them dream of their future husbands.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Time for Fitnessâ&#x20AC;? Continued from Page 7 * Prepare meals ahead of time. If working out in the morning simply won't work out for you, then consider planning meals in advance so you can free up time between the ofďŹ ce and dinner each night. For example, slow cookers and crockpots make it possible to start making dinner in the early morning and require little or no effort once you arrive home in the evening. Plan to cook a few meals each week in a slow cooker, which will free up time for you to workout when you would otherwise be preparing dinner. * Work while you workout. Smartphones and tablets have made it easier than ever to get work done while you're away from work. This includes getting some work done while you're getting in your weekly recommended aerobic activity on the treadmill, elliptical machine or exercise bike. Thanks to smartphones and tablets, you can now read and answer emails and work on some projects while you sweat away those extra pounds. * Get off the couch. Many men and women prefer to unwind on the couch as they catch up on their favorite television shows and movies. But such unwinding should not come at the expense of working out. Much like catching up on work at the gym, you also can catch up on your favorite shows and movies while at the gym.

Many smartphones and tablets now have apps that allow users to access subscription streaming services, so users who can't ďŹ nd time to exercise should take advantage of such apps and watch their favorite shows and movies from the treadmill instead of the couch. Readers who can comfortably read while exercising can follow a similar route and read on the elliptical instead of sitting sedentary in a chair as they make their way through the latest bestseller.

Finding time to exercise can be difďŹ cult, but even the busiest men and women have several options at their disposal as they attempt to make ďŹ tness a bigger priority in their lives.

History of the man behind

St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day t. Patrick's Day is celebrated each year on March 17. Although St. Patrick became the patron saint of Ireland, many people assume the role of being Irish for the day and participate in the revelry of celebrating St. Patrick's Day. Many of these revelers celebrate without fully understanding the man behind the holiday.

S

Despite having such strong links to Ireland, St. Patrick did not begin his life on the Emerald Isle. St. Patrick was born to wealthy parents in Britain in the fourth century. His given name was Maewyn. His father was a Christian deacon, but there is no evidence that theirs was a particularly religious family. It is surmised that the role of deacon was more for tax beneďŹ ts rather than a holy calling. Some history suggests that Patrick considered himself a pagan in the early years of his life. At age 16, after being taken to Ireland as a prisoner by a group of Irish raiders who were attacking his family's estate, Patrick began rethinking his religious beliefs.

While working alone as a shepherd, he turned to religion for solace and adopted the name Patrick. He began dreaming of converting the Irish people to Christianity during his captivity.

According to his historical writings, he heard a voice in a dream, which he believed to be God. God told him it was time to leave Ireland.

Patrick escaped his captivity after six years by walking 200 miles to the Irish coast.

He boarded a ship and ďŹ&#x201A;ed back to Britain. Patrick had another holy revelation that he was to return to Ireland as a missionary. To prepare, he began to study at a monastery under the authority of St. Germain, bishop of Auxerre for 12 years. He was ordained a minister and traveled back to Ireland with the purpose of assisting Christians already living in Ireland and to converting the Irish to Christianity.

Patrick had an intimate knowledge of Irish culture due to his captivity. He was also familiar with traditional rituals. Therefore, instead of trying to remove all that was customary to the Irish people, he began working some of their rituals into his Christian teachings so they would seem more natural to the Irish. He managed to convert many pagans, and he and his disciples preached and converted many more.

Patrick helped to build churches all over Ireland.

By the end of Patrick's life, the majority of Ireland embraced Christianity. He lived the life of a wanderer and endured much suffering and poverty. Patrick died March 17, 461.

Because the Irish descended from a long line of storytellers who had a rich tradition of oral legend and myth, there are many tales of Patrick that abound, many of which are untrue. He did not scare actual snakes out of Ireland nor did he take part in many of the embellished tales. He did succeed in making a big historical impact, which is why he entered into sainthood and had the date of March 17 established in his honor.

“IF I DON’T GET THIS OFF MY CHEST, I’M GONNA EXPLODE!”

Dale C. Capela, D.C.

David C. Pamer, D.C.

Let us Trigger Your “Health Reset Button” The Missing Link to Pain Free Health I HAVE THE ANSWER to what they are doing and I’m not referring to exercise or proper diet, which of course are part of having great health at any age! What I’m talking about is something much easier than all of that... and is “The Missing Link to Pain Free HealthTM” so few people know about!

Desperate People There are a LOT of desperate men and women living in pain right here...who are willing to do practically anything to get rid of the pain!

Many are DESPERATE to get rid of nagging physical pain. They are also desperate to keep from LOSING their youth. They are DESPERATE to get rid of the effects of stress; they are DESPERATE to have more energy, to have optimal health, to improve their physical performance.

They just want to feel the way they did in a previous time of their lives where things were really, really good.

No Age Barriers Age shouldn’t dictate whether you are of great health or not.

Some of the healthiest people I know are over 50, 60, 70 and even a few in their 80’s. Some of those who have lost their youth and health... and some of the UNhealthiest people I know are in their 20’s, 30’s, 40’s.

How can this be?

Health Reset Button Think about it: just like a computer needs to be “rebooted” with a “reset” button from time to time, your body’s “inner computer” has an equivalent need.

Your body’s “Health Reset Button” needs to be gently triggered from time to time too.

It is regularly $605, but will be FREE* until March 31st, 2014. It will take you just a few minutes to pick up the phone... call my office at 330-345-3336... and make the free appointment.
