015 MARKS A milestone for Essential Wellness magazine. It’s been an up and down journey, through twists and turns, to finally arrive at a solid mile marker: 20 years!

We spent a lot of trial and error on e-newsletters to convey timely, supplemental information and finally our semimonthly e-newsletter “Celebrate Wellness” took off; we’ve produced nearly 200 editions. “Celebrate Wellness” publishes events, resources, articles, and other wellness highlights to an email audience of about 4,000, specifically targeted to the healing and spirituality community. Spinning off this is our first-of-the-month topic-based e-newsletters such as “Celebrate Healing Therapies” or “Celebrate Yoga” or any number of other wellness and spirituality based topic e-newsletters.

Dee and I began publishing a print newspaper, Twin Cities Wellness, in 1995. The name and format changed to Essential Wellness in the mid-00s to reflect a larger regionally-based and global market that we were seeking to reach. We survived the 2008 downturn—barely— and in 2011 ceased print publication to become an onlineonly digital magazine. It was the way of the print industry with We have many staff to thank many print publications around who helped us along the 20 us ceasing to exist. past years. Soleil Graphics cur-

Melissa May, our former graphic designer, put in her “stint” for many years doing her magic with graphics and layout par excellence. Before that Doug Bronson served many years in the same role and was meticulous, dependable, with beautiful design skills. Others who’ve worked with us are now on their own paths: Steve Hokenson, Della McGee, Sheila Weidendorf, Michelle Frantzen. There have been too many to name but all benefitted us in getting us to where we are today. You know who you are and we thank you!

Use flower essences to heal deeply

W

hen I started using flower essences, I always had a shock and trauma blend on hand like Trillium Botanicals Stress Ease. If a bird hit our window and couldn’t fly away, I would run out and place a drop on its beak. It usually recovered and flew away, making me happy, but I was never really sure if I helped or if it just needed a minute to shake off the crash. Then one day, one of my dogs thought that a porcupine was a chew toy and he got quills in his nose, snout, and going all the way through his tongue.

He was writhing on the ground trying to rub away the quills which, of course, only pushed them in farther. By the time I reached him, his eyes were wild with pain. I got him to the house, but his eyes started glazing over with pain. I gave him (and myself ) a quick squirt of flower essences and we hurried to the vet. I was in the back of the car with our dog, trying to comfort him and keep him from causing further damage rubbing the quills into his face. My husband drove faster than usual because we were in crisis-mode, and of course, we got pulled over for speeding. My husband explained the situation and the officer came around the back to check on our dog. As I turned

to show the officer my crazed dog, I realized he was now just calmly looking like a pincushion with his tongue hanging out, quills and all, as though nothing was wrong. I couldn’t believe my eyes. TRILLIUM BOTANICALS FLOWER ESSENCES HELP WITH PHYSICAL, MENTAL, EMOTIONAL ISSUES

That was when I truly came to understand how powerful flower essences are. I am grateful for, and in awe of, the Healing Energies of the Plant Kingdom. For decades since then, I have been making flower essences for my family. I have spent years getting to know the healing CONTINUED PAGE 14...

Trillium Botanicals Flower Essences, or floral remedies, are flower healing preserved in brandy or vinegar, and are typically taken by placing a 5-10 drops under your tongue, or in a beverage. They can also be absorbed through the skin or spritzed in the air, (there’s no scent), to energize a room. Trillium Botanicals flower essences can help with physical, emotional or spiritual issues such as helping with memory, depression, opening your heart to love, stress, connecting with Nature, shock and trauma, night terrors, anxiety, increasing harmony and many more.

Fall into the garden of your own healing

D

R. DEBBIE ENGELM A N N , NHD, owner of Created By Nature Wellness, LLC, is a featured author in Heart to Heart: The Path to Wellness, a book created by Älska Publishing and officially released worldwide February 26, 2015. In her chapter, “Falling Into The Garden of Healing,” Debbie shares the details of her two-year fight to find her way back from the darkness of grief, deep depression, despair, and overwhelming anger following the devastating loss of both sisters, just five months apart. She is one of 43 amazing authors, including the well-

known creators of the bestselling book, The Secret, Dr. John Demartini and Bob Doyle, who also share their personal and inspirational true-life stories of healing. INSPIRING STORIES SHOW ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

Every individual, at some point in time, has asked themselves, “How can I get through this? Why is this happening to me? Am I even strong enough to work through this?” Questions you may be asking yourself daily or even every moment. The good news is this; you already have the ability within you to have a life full of vibrant health and abundance. The stories in this book will help jump-start your

personal healing plan whether you’re facing an illness, nursing a broken heart, battling demons from the past, or simply wish to begin living a brighter and healthier life. Debbie’s story shares her difficult and painful process of not only processing her grief, but how debilitating it was to finally lose control in order to heal. Her chapter shares the following about the path she walked during her healing: “During my healing process, I learned to focus completely on myself, began to cautiously face the truth of me, and slowly released myself from my selfimposed cage of fear. The time estimates of others regarding how long I should grieve were

finally ignored. By allowing myself to lose control, I began to stop controlling myself and others. I screamed; hit pillows; wrote pages and pages of memories, hatred, sadness, and unspeakable things; and when I was finally spent, it was upon Mother Earth I fell to surrender my grief and pain.” Artist Patricia Jerde shares the following review: “Debbie Engelmann’s chapter “Falling Into The Garden of Healing” so beautifully describes the process she had to go through to

heal herself. The path she found to that place of healing within herself is revealed with beautiful and powerful imagery. That path has led her to the peace and strength she now uses to help others heal. Knowing Debbie is a gift, and her story simply reinforces the wisdom she has found on her healing journey. I am so thankful she has shared her path with us in this book, which invites all of us to start the voyage of our own healing.” The message and magic in this book is deep. It stirs the soul, illuminates the path toward healing and shows the reader that anything is possible. Order your copy today at http://dengelmannauthor.com.

S

CIENTIFIC JOURNALS SHOW the interconnectedness of the mind and body, and that each influences the other in profound ways. Our guts talk to our brains. Our hearts influence both. If we stubbornly insist on a mind that controls our body, we risk limiting what we can create and how much joy we can experience. Studies show people who think in terms of a split between mind and body make less healthy choices—alcohol, stimulants, and fast food for example. The body-mind is a complex, integrated, adapting system that uses neurons and

www.nickjankel.com

nerves, hormones and transmitters, genes and cells to create a human who can feel, think, and act in the world. All of it interacts with every other bit in a two-way conversation. HANDS, HEAD, HEART

I split the unified bodymind into three dimensions: hands, head, and heart. A trinity like this is found in various wisdom traditions around the world. In ancient Greece, there were originally three creative muses: Aoide, the

muse of song (hands), Melete, the muse of contemplation (head), and Mneme, the muse of memories (heart). In the Vedic philosophies of India, there are three paths to enlightenment: karma (actions of the hands); jnana (knowledge of the head); and bhakti (love of the heart). In psychology and the other sciences of human experience, we also see the trio appear. First came behavioral psychology (hands). We worked out ways to use rewards and rules to change how people act. Then came a rev-

olution in the field that brought us cognitive psychology (head). This helped link thoughts to behaviors. This brought new tools for change like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). Finally, there is now interest in how our emotions and social engagement drive the whole system (heart). THOUGHTS CAN CREATE CHANGE

Thinking things can change how the body works. In one experiment, one group of hotel maids were informed by scientists that the effort expended changing beds and cleaning rooms each day was equal to

the daily level of exercise recommended for a health. This group started to lose weight and reduce body mass index and blood pressure. The other group, not told this fact, maintained the same weight. Studies indicate people can consciously change how their immune system responds through a series of breathing, meditation, and experiential exercises. People who believe in acupuncture experience a reduction in pain after a session; those that don’t, do not. The pain relief even shows up in brain scans. Our emotions are vitally important in helping us succeed. Rather than suppress them, it pays to acknowledge

them. They signal to our bodymind to move toward or away from something. They provide us with a charge of attraction or repulsion. Fear pulls us away from threats. Love draws us toward people who can care for us. Decision-making may appear as if it relies on the head; but it is ineffective without the heart, and meaningless without hands. We need all three integrated and aligned if we want to have and sustain breakthroughs.

Sacro Wedgy alleviates s low back, hip, and knee p ®

A

LL OF THESE symptoms and more could be the result of a simple muscle imbalance. My father invented a device called the Sacro Wedgy® that has been helping all of us as well as a multitude of sufferers for over 20 years. The concept is anatomically sound in that the “keystone” of our anatomy— the sacrum—is held neutral by the Sacro Wedgy® and gravity does the rest.

hold their sacrum as suggested by an osteopath. After about 20 minutes he could feel muscles that were fighting and resisting finally subside. He did this for years and consistently got great results which led him to create the Sacro Wedgy® to mimic how his hand would isolate, cradle, and elevate only the sacrum. By holding the sacrum slightly elevated, the hips are now free to drop allowing surrounding muscles a reason to change. The psoas, piriformis, and sartorius muscles are the main three muscles that tend to jam HOW SACRO WEDGY the pelvic girdle and symptoms CAME TO BE are created by an imbalance.

on the inside. Knee pain could be the result of a hip imbalance. All you have to do is relax and rebalance. What could be simpler? The curve of the neck is supported so now both ends of the spine are placed in a neutral position and gravity does the rest. We have many therapists that have incorporated the Sacro Wedgy® into their existing techniques such as CranioSacral Therapy. THE COST IS MINIMAL

The cost for the Sacro Wedgy® is $33.95 and there is a male and female version for our anatomical differences. The exception is some taller, narrower framed women may be more comfortable on the

sciatica, pain male version. If you are not having any “issues,” now is the time to start relaxing on the Sacro Wedgy® to prevent problems. We have thousands of testimonials that are wonderful examples of how people are realizing self-care can be very effective for long term correction and prevention. I had sciatica once and after relaxing five times for 20 minutes each session the

pain was gone. Everyone is different and there are many variables as to what is the cause but balance can help. Prevention is the key to reducing health care costs and leading a more pain free life.
