Spring Has Sprung!

MARCH 2017

t is finally March, and the first day of Spring is right around the corner. I think after this particularly unpredictable winter, we definitely deserve the warm days and flowers that are getting closer and closer. I do not know about you, but as the earth awakens from its winter dormancy, my creative juices seem to kick into overdrive. All this life and vibrancy after the dull grays of winter makes this the perfect month to celebrate the arts!

I am always amazed by the creativity I discover within Northeast Ohio. This region is so culturally rich that it seems one will encounter an artistic twist everywhere they turn. From the artful entrées of Chef Jennifer Drumm that almost look too good to eat to Painting With a Twist's awesome spin on a night out to Richard Doyle's mission to hang his art around the world, there is something going on in all regions of the county. It is evident to Medina County residents that our local culture is rooted in art. Downtown Wadsworth and Medina Square in particular really embody that artistic atmosphere, and I think it is safe to say that our architectural gems and rolling landscapes are a great source of inspiration to local artists. As such, it is also a constant source of inspiration to the Lifestyle team! As always, we are inspired by our community. Keep in touch!

ARTICLE NIKKI RHOADES

ichard Doyle is an artist of paint and words. The Medina-born artist and

writer is a full time financial advisor—a Renaissance Man with the “ol' right-brain left-brain thingy going on.” What started out as a hobby has since solidified his art a revered piece of local culture. “I am inspired by the legacy of art,” he explains as he sips his hot chocolate (extra chocolately with the works!). We met in a coffee shop in Wadsworth, the city we both call home, and had been discussing the area's unique culture and its indescribable appeal to artists. “I'm inspired by its ability to leave a lasting footprint when I am long gone.” Doyle was always a decent artist growing up, but he never regarded art as a remarkable factor in his life until he earned his final financial degree and rewarded himself with a set of watercolor paints. He could not imagine that those pigments would help him launch a career. “The first collage I created was of Sharon Center. My father in law had passed and I wanted to do something in his memory, so I did a collage. I included my in-law's family barn as well as other local landmarks in the

painting and donated it to his church on the circle in his name. People started asking about it, and pretty soon I did Medina, and Wadsworth... it launched my art career.” His art career took his family and friends by surprise. When showing his creations, he is often met with an incredulous, “You did that?” In fact, he was met with that response so frequently that he originally intended to name his website, DoyleArts.com, after the expression of disbelief, but to his dismay the domain name was already claimed. “My family is amazed and shocked. No one believes that I am actually a painter. I was never 'that guy.' I was an athlete in high school. Senior year I was a three sport athlete, and I was in the fall play and spring musical. I didn't have any time to paint.” Today, Doyle's biggest challenge continues to be finding the time to indulge in his hobby. The collages for which he has gained acclaim take 40 hours to complete. As a result, his primary creations are smaller paintings, which can take between a day and a week to create. Recently, he has found inspiration to travel and paint landscapes of different cities around the world; this dream was formed when he first arrived Florence, Italy last fall to visit his daughter who was studying abroad. “One day, in maybe 10 or 15 years, I would like to do a travel book,” says Doyle. “I have a list of probably 100 different paintings I have to do. What I'll probably do is gift each painting to different landmarks. Hopefully I'll have a painting hanging up everywhere around the world.” Until then, he is content with the legacy he has established in our county. “When an artist goes into a town, they see it differently than most people. They see beauty from an artistic point of view. Our local scenery always inspires me. This whole area is such a positive place to be, and I think there is a reason so many artists call it home.”

TOUGH AS MILK (CON TI N U ED)

“I realized how much yoga helped me subsequent traumas had pushed her to a breaking point. She was diagnosed with PTSD, for which she met with a therapist weekly. Through her therapist she learned of the importance of meditation, and she transitioned from dabbling in yoga to practicing it daily. “I realized how much yoga helped me heal and relax, so I got a group fitness instructor certification and set out to make a difference. I always wanted to be in the nonprofit industry. I wanted to create a way for people to feel that they had control. After everything that happened, I had felt like I was not in control of my own life. The name Tough as Milk just came to me, and it's been guiding me since. I believe that you can still be kind and cope in a healthy way even though life has not been kind to you. That is what my mother shows me and what I want our clients to know. We had our first class in January.” Yoga has ancient roots in the IndusSarasvati civilization and dates back thousands of years. The word “yoga” comes from the RigVeda (one of the sacred Vedic Sanskrit texts in Hinduism) translates as “spiritual discipline,” and involves the use of postures and breathing to increase strength and flexibility. It takes the regrets of the past and the uncertainty of the future out of the equation by encouraging practitioners to focus on their breathing and the here-and-now, says Simonoski. “That is such a powerful moment,” she explains, “To focus on self-awareness and to find the strength to begin the healing process. It will open the door to healthy relationships and higher self-esteem, and it will make it easier to find help. I view Tough as Milk as a supplement. It's one tool they have in their toolkit to help them learn to love themselves again.” Since early January, Simonoski has been celebrating her mother's legacy with a creative and artistic flair through Tough as Milk. She has been offering free classes to survivors of domestic violence through shelters and referrals from licensed agencies, as well as offering low-cost classes to members of the community to fund survivor classes and further expansion of services. She hopes to one day have a physical space through which she could offer a variety of fitness and cooking classes to those impacted by domestic violence. “Your confidence goes up when you're in a healthy environment,” she says. “And 18

trigger a good mood.” She points out that although yoga accompanied by a strict regimen of self-love is a good way to alleviate trauma, conversation and education within the community are still necessary to prevent it from happening in the first place. “There seems to be shame in admitting you've been abused because of how people talk about abuse victims. People say, 'Why did they stay?' We should be asking, 'Why do people abuse?' I think it is important to address this because without people bringing it out into the light and addressing it, the survivors—and I was like this, and my mom, too—they stay hidden and they stay in unhealthy relationships.

It was a gift from her grandmother. She attended her first comic convention with her older cousins five years ago, and with the help of her family her passion took off. "My first convention was just an amazing experience, and I knew I was hooked," she admits. "It was an awesome experience, and everybody was just open and accepting. They understand that everyone starts somewhere and offer support to newbies and pros alike. And we all share tips, because it seems like everybody has a particular forte that they excel in."

hale Creek Golf Club is a recognizable landscape in Medina. Its rolling greenery and clubhouse complete with a scenic patio overlook that offers a stunning view of Ohio sunsets have helped solidify it

as a must-see destination in the golfing community. If you are not a golfer, though, you can still capitalize on the resort-like milieu to take a break from the stress of life. Did you know?

SHALE CREEK IS NOT JUST ONE OF THE HIGHEST RATED GOLF COURSES IN THE STATE, IT ALSO

IS HOME TO THE GRANITE GRILLE, A FULL SERVICE RESTAURANT AND BAR THAT IS ALSO OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

“Our facility certainly stands apart from the public golf courses many people are used to visiting,” says Scott Schreck, President of Granite Golf Properties. “Much of this is because of the clubhouse facility and the Granite Grille Restaurant. It feels much more 'resort' than 'public golf course.' In addition, we have a tremendous service staff trained to provide our guests with a world class experience when visiting for a day of golf or a meal at The Granite Grille. That combination makes us much more than your typical facility.”

ARE YOU ADDICTED TO

SUGAR? LASER THERAPY DELIVERS A NEW APPROACH TO ADDICTION, FAT LOSS AND FITNESS THE HEALTHY WAY

improve metabolism, control cravings, increase energy and aid in the transition to clean eating without any withdrawal symptoms. Sugar can be just as addicting as nicotine. Eating chronic amounts of sugar raises your insulin level, then selectively converts energy from the food and stores it as fat. It is very possible to suffer from withdrawal when eliminating this from your diet completely, just as with any other addictive substance. Laser therapy will assist in the sugar detoxification, which is vital to fat loss, by allowing for a smooth transition from sugar-filled eating to clean eating with minimal withdrawal and craving symptoms. Cortisol influences most of the changes that occur in your body due to stress, such as rising glucose levels, blood pressure and the breakdown of fat, protein and carbs. By using a low level laser we can stimulate the pressure points associated with relaxation so your body is able to naturally lower its cortisol levels and increase your metabolism. This will in turn enable you to burn calories at a more accelerated and efficient rate without tearing down your body by attacking muscle tissue.
