I

love this month’s cover and theme on multilevel healing. I can totally relate and know many others who can, too.

Life these days can be demanding, and PTSD is at an all-time high. If I could be granted one wish, it would be to live offthe-grid for a minimum of 30 days. If this is your wish too, be sure to check out my Journeying and transitioning together with laughter, love and light. Viva la Mexico Publisher’s Pick on page 13. and friendship.

My dear friend Heidi and I recently carved a week out of our schedules to be partially off-the-grid at a cozy surf resort in Mexico and it did us a world of good. While we don’t always have the time for such trips, we do have the time to become aware of our stress levels and listen to the havoc it creates in our bodies and our relationships. We also can show compassion to those suffering from stress and mental and physical offshoots. Staying busy and judging others is an easy way to derail and project our own issues onto others.

I came back my first day of vacation like the energizer bunny. My batteries wore down quickly though, as they’ve been doing more often in my later years. While yoga, meditation and surfing all help me stay balanced, I recognized and accepted that I could use more help due to my personal life history. I started working with Dr. Danielle Chavalarias, CEO of InnerOptimal Inc. (see page 8), and what an eye opener that’s been—or, should I say, brain opener. Dr. Danielle diagnosed my history without my having to tell her. All she had to do was study my brain waves. That’s the biofeedback end—and it gets better as the neurological feedback has already started optimizing my brain functions. Yes, I’m signed up and on course to be the best version of me.

I’ve also been immersed in studying the Enneagram with Rolf practitioner, Michael Mitchell. The Enneagram helps you utilize your dominant personality in a healthy way. It can enhance your good relationships and help sever any toxic ones. Michael and I will be announcing and hosting “Personality Parties” utilizing the Enneagram (see page 24). I welcome you all to subscribe to my newsletters to enhance your lives, too, via our abundance of passionate professional practitioners.

Local Portrait Photographer Captures Special Moments

P

Laura Jucha

ortrait photographer Laura Jucha has received international recognition for her work by The Portrait Masters in 2017 and 2018. Locally, her work has been displayed at the San Diego County Fair and graced the cover of the San Diego Jewish Journal.

Jucha specializes in headshots and personal branding, providing professional hair and makeup for all her portrait sessions. “I believe in the

power of print and existing in photos. Over 1.2 trillion photos are taken yearly with very few of those being printed,” says this visual artist, who professionally retouches, prints and mats her work (except headshots) and displays them in custom Italian leather folio boxes. “This is a creative way to display a collection of photos without needing to hang them all on a wall.” Canvas and custom framing are also available options.

While Jucha loves all aspects of photography, she especially loves photographing families and multi-generations and creating legacy portraits that can be passed down to future generations. “I also really enjoy planning for a high school senior photo session and wandering a college campus with the soon-to-be graduate capturing special moments,” she affirms.

Laura Jucha Photography is based in Carlsbad. For more information, call 760-230-3797, visit LauraJuchaPhotography.com, or follow Laura Jucha on Facebook and Instagram @LauraJuchaPhotography.

Holistic Skincare Specialist Now in Second Location in Encinitas

www.soundtherapyarts.com

L

eslie Morand, holistic master esthetician with more than 20 years in the skincare industry, is excited to announce her new location at 230 Second Street, in Encinitas, where she will offer the same expert skincare artistry that her La Jolla clients have been raving about.

“I’m excited about being Encinitas. It’s such a holistic, natural community that will align with my approach to skincare.”

Morand’s non-invasive anti-aging and acne facial treatments and 100 percent natural non-toxic skincare services include French European facials, oxygen facials, back facials, microcurrent muscle toning, organic bio beauty peels, and chemical peels to help with a variety of skin conditions including aging, acne, rosacea, scarring, dry skin, large pores and hyperpigmentation.

Le Vie Skincare is currently offering specials, including a $59 Organic Flower Peel and $99 Anti-aging or Acne Oxygen Facial. “Organic Flower Peels are a great way to deeply exfoliate the skin,” affirms Morand, who found the peel while traveling and studying in Europe. “I’ve been using the Oxygen Facial in my practice for over 12 years. The results are amazing and instant. Your skin will be radiant, refreshed and rejuvenated.

It’s perfect for events like weddings or anytime you need to be camera-ready or just want to look flawless.”

Morand shares that suffering with acne as a teenager helped her develop a passion for skincare, which morphed into a career helping others with their skin needs. “It’s so rewarding seeing people feel good about themselves internally and externally,” says this practitioner, who is so passionate about skincare, she even created her own line of Le Vie Skincare products, suitable for all skin types. “I’ve studied and trained all over the world and use a blend of Eastern and Western modalities to create an ‘experience’ for my clients’ mind, body and skin.”

Morand created her line of 100 percent natural and nontoxic skincare products after studying at a laboratory in France 10 years ago. “I wanted a skincare line that would get results without compromising the body,” she says. “A few skincare products I had used in my facials were bought out by large corporations, and I noticed some of the formulas were changing and chemicals were being added for mass production. I wanted to know what ingredients were going into each product.”

In addition, Morand provides brow waxing, oxygen aroma inhalation, in-home facial services and social facial events for parties and weddings.

Locations: 230 2nd St., Ste. 101, Encinitas; 7655 Girard Ave., Ste. 121, La Jolla. For more information and to set up a 10-minute complimentary consultation, call 619-751-3605 or visit LeVieSkincare.com. See ad on page 16.

The Benefits of Acupuncture for Children Acupuncture for children and teenagers is becoming an increasingly common treatment for headaches, stomachaches, back pain, depression and many other frequent health concerns.

A study into the effects of acupuncture for children was conducted by Yuan-Chi Lin, M.D., an anesthesiologist specializing in pediatric pain management at the Boston-based Harvard-affiliated Children’s Hospital. It involved 243 children ranging between 6 months and 18 years of age.

Lin’s yearlong study found children that had received acupuncture therapy reported less pain, on average, than before treatment, rating their average pain as a three out of 10, as opposed to an eight out of 10 before they started. They also reported increased school attendance, improved sleep and increased participation in extracurricular activities.

Acupuncture for children has helped with a wide range of ailments, from headaches to the effects of ADHD, and is a safe alternative to pharmaceuticals that many parents do not want their children taking. Increasingly, more parents are turning to acupuncture as an effective and necessary method of reestablishing and maintaining health within their children’s constitution.

The Pacific College of Oriental Medicine teaches acupuncture, massage and herbology at campuses in San Diego, New York and Chicago, including a new doctoral program. For more information, call 866-276-0717 or visit PacificCollege.edu. See ad on page 7 and in the Community Resource Guide.

Vitamin D can’t be metabolized without sufficient magnesium levels. Thus, it remains stored and inactive for as many as 50 percent of Americans on nutrient-poor diets, reports a research review in the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association. “Without magnesium, vitamin D is not really useful or safe,” says study co-author Mohammed S. Razzaque, Ph.D., a professor of pathology at Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, in Erie, Pennsylvania.

As a consequence, taking vitamin D supplements can increase a person’s calcium and phosphate levels, even if they remain vitamin D deficient, he explains; and that can lead to vascular calcification if their magnesium levels aren’t sufficient.

The magnesium factor may explain why vitamin D supplementation doesn’t necessarily help vitamin D deficiency-related disorders such as skeletal deformities, cardiovascular diseases and metabolic syndrome. Natural sources of magnesium include almonds, cashews and other nuts, bananas, beans, broccoli, brown rice, egg yolks, fish oil, green vegetables, mushrooms, oatmeal, soybeans, sweet corn, tofu, whole grains, and pumpkin, sesame, sunflower and flax seeds.

Holding Hands Reduces Pain Holdings hands with a loved one reduces physical pain, report researchers at the University of Colorado and University of Haifa that studied the brainwaves of 22 heterosexual couples between ages 23 and 32. When in each other’s presence, the couples’ brainwaves tended to synchronize, especially in the alpha mu band, a measure of focused attention; holding hands amplified this effect and markedly lowered pain levels. The more empathetic the man was to the woman’s pain, the more their brain activity synced and her pain decreased. Men that were less empathetic did not produce the same effect.

I

just returned from a wonderful two-thousandmile road trip to San Juanico, Baja California Sur, Mexico. It brought back so many memories, as I used to camp there over 18 years ago with my kids and many other families. I get asked all the time if I’m afraid to drive through Mexico. The answer is a big no! As soon as you cross over the border, the Mexico "mañana" mentality sets in. The geography, the food and the people enchant you as you feel your mind relax, your spirits soar and your heart get all warm and cozy. Rather, it scares me to return.

I went without family this time, and instead, traveled with a dear friend. We stayed at the Cowabunga Hotel and Bungalows, a perfect name to go with the perfect place. The owners, Cholie and Mike, are as authentic as authentic gets. Their cozy resort can’t be any more inviting or

clean and their captivating stories alone are enough to make your trip worthwhile.

Needless to say, I left a couple of surfboards behind, along with my heart, for a return trip.

I hit the pavement running after I got back to San Diego. The first day, I made it to my 8 a.m. network meeting with restored energy. However, after a few more days of attempting to re-acclimate to our fast-paced culture, my energy swiftly began to dwindle. I found myself secretly wishing that Trump’s “wall” would reverse its intention and prevent relaxed U.S. citizens from re-entering the rat race.

Normally, I’d apologize to my fellow surfers for spreading the word about a secret surf spot. However, in this case, the road to Cowabunga was paved long before I discovered it as many others had already been spreading the word about this surfer’s paradise. Plus, I am so grateful for my time spent at Cowabunga, I have no choice but to share one of the best experiences of my life. Thank you, Cowabunga and San Juanico, for turning my old memories into new unforgettable ones.

Simplified Parenting Why Less Means vectorfusionart/Shutterstock.com

More Happiness

by Deborah Shouse

Parents wishing to simplify child-raising seek less stress and more fun; less scheduling and more casual time; less “shoulds” and more “want-tos” less second-guessing and more confidence.

F

or a happier family life, experts encourage parents to stay true to their own values, strengths and sense of family purpose, focusing on the wonders of their children instead of endless daily tasks. It begins with each child feeling loved.

Learn Love Languages

For Gary Chapman, Ph. D., author of The 5 Love Languages of Children: The Secret to Loving Children Effectively, understanding each child’s particular needs for touch, affirming words, quality time, gifts or acts of service is foundational to parenting success. “Other than security, a child’s deepest need is to feel loved,” says Chapman, of Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

“If their love tank is full, children grow up emotionally healthy. Knowing a child’s preferred language helps parents effectively communicate their feelings. The question is not, ‘Do you love your children?’ It’s, ‘Do your children feel loved?’”

As Chapman arrives home, his son rushes to hug him, grinning while his dad 14

San Diego Edition

NA-SD.com

tousles his hair. Chapman’s daughter often calls out, “Dad, come into my room. I want to show you something.” This is how he communicates with each child in their primary love language.

Parents learn their children’s preferred communication style by observing their behavior, noticing how they express love and listening to them. They can also offer options and track results. For example: n Would you like to take the dog to the park (quality time) or for me to help you study for a test (acts of service)? n Would you like to wrestle (touch) or shop for your new shoes (gift)?

“Ideally, we offer heavy doses of the child’s primary language and sprinkle

in the others,” says Chapman. “Children who feel loved respond better to suggestions and discipline. They also learn how to express their feelings.”

Avoid Unreal Idealizing

Some parents carry a mental snapshot of their ideal child, perhaps envisioning a kid that is into sports or even-tempered or academically gifted. Often, that picture is very different from the actual child.

The first step to truly accepting the child is to allow ourselves to feel whatever authentic feelings pop up. The parent might think, “I love my son, but am struggling; I adore sports and may never get to share that with him.”

“Give yourself time to process disappointment,” advises Susan Stiffelman, a Los Angeles marriage and family therapist, mother of one and author of Parenting Without Power Struggles: Raising Joyful, Resilient Kids While Staying Cool,

Simply Raising Children Resources A Fine Parent, blog, Sumitha Bhandarkar, AFineParent.com/blog Edit Your Life, podcast, Asha Dornfest, EditYourLifeShow.com The book Parent Hacks:134 Genius Shortcuts for Life with Kids, by Asha Dornfest

Calm and Connected. “Then identify the things you love about your kids and share those with them.” As just one example, we might convey that we love the sound of their voice and how gentle they are with the baby.

“Appreciating our children as they are is one way to keep our hearts open,” says Stiffelman.

Focus on the Good

When Barbara Unell, a parent educator and author of Discipline With Love and Limits: Calm, Practical Solutions to the 43 Most Common Childhood Behavior Problems, birthed twins, she was initially daunted by the work of caring for them.

Then she began simplifying by focusing on the “wow” factors.

“Being a parent speaks to the core of our humanity. Experiencing the growth and development of a human being is miraculous. I started looking at parenting through that lens,” says Unell, who lives in the Leawood, Kansas, area.

Asha Dornfest, of Portland, Oregon, a podcaster, co-author of Minimalist Parenting: Enjoy Modern Family Life More

by Doing Less and mother of two, relates, “I paid more attention to my values and my family’s unique needs and was less influenced by parenting experts, social pressures and well-meaning peers.”

Dornfest explored her own values

www.itex.com

by asking, “What did I learn from my parents?” and, “How do I want my family to be different?” She also practiced trusting her intuition. “Even when I’m not certain I’m right, I know I love my children, I’m doing my best, and I’ll make adjustments if necessary,” she says.

Create Rhythm and Rituals

Rhythmic activities ease the anxiety of family transitions and furnish warm solidarity, consistency and connectedness.

“Increasing the predictability of meals, bedtime and other rituals also improves family life,” says Davina Muse, a mental health counselor and mother of two from Great Barrington, Massachusetts.

Muse serves as training director for Simplicity Parenting, a program based on Kim John Payne’s book Simplicity Parenting: Using the Extraordinary Power of Less to Raise Calmer, Happier, and More Secure Kids that offers a connective ritual families can merge with mealtimes. Each person describes a “rose” (one good thing from the day) or a “thorn” (one challenging thing) and a “bud” (one thing they’re anticipating).

Such sharing builds a family connection and helps kids discuss difficult issues, notes Muse. Also, “Describing the bud lifts everyone’s mood.”

Every Friday evening, the Dornfests

share a Sabbath dinner, a low-key way for them to gather and talk. “This ritual adds a rhythm to our week and anchors us,” says Dornfest.

Elect De-Stress Over Distress

Everyone can sometimes become overscheduled and overwhelmed; a balance between scheduled time and downtime is necessary to well-being. In her daily check-in, Dornfest confers with herself and her husband, inquiring, “How are things going? Are they too hectic? Is our schedule energizing or draining?”

She advises, “When I feel like I’m riding a runaway train, I slow down.

There seem to be so many ‘shoulds’ in parenting; we instead need to discover what our family loves.”

Before enlisting a child for an activity, Dornfest suggests we ask why it’s important: Are you making up for your own missed opportunities as a child? Are you worried your child will miss out? Do you equate these lessons with being a good and caring parent?

Parenting is more than checking off lists and tasks. It’s about being connected with children. Build in playtime, roughhousing, chase each other around the yard, toss balloons or balls together, blow bubbles and welcome opportunities for laughter.

Soothing Quiet Time

Children that act out or withdraw may not have enough downtime. Take the kids outside to play. “Nature is very soothing,” says Muse. “Climbing trees, searching for rocks and pine cones, playing with dirt, sticks, water and leaves all offer healing down time.”

To escape from worries and distractions, Stiffelman suggests three or four minutes of meditation or simply designated quiet time. For little ones, lay a stuffed teddy bear on the child’s tummy and have them notice how the animal is moving. A parent and child can also be aware of the sounds they are hearing, plus incorporate a little mindful breathing into the bedtime ritual.

Know the Power of Space

Most parents think their children would go crazy if half their toys and books were removed, but this isn’t true.

“My trainers and I have worked with thousands of parents on decluttering, and the results have been powerful,” says

Muse. The Simplicity Parenting approach encourages parents to discard broken toys, give away anything no longer being played with and attractively store current playthings. She observes, “As you decrease the quantity of toys and clutter, you increase the child’s attention and capacity for deep play.”

Build Resilience

Simplifying parenting means releasing the notion that children must be happy, well-behaved and delighted with life and their parents at all times. Unell used the daily multitasking challenges with her twins as exercises in developing resilience and modeling these skills for them. If children spill milk, the parent comments, “No big deal. We all spill things.” When there’s a minor accident, “Let’s just get towels and clean it up.” A resilient attitude is, “Something goes wrong, we fix it.” It’s also about being flexible and coping with disappointment.

“To build resilience, parents need to feel comfortable in the presence of an un-

happy child,” says Stiffelman. “If parents don’t allow children to be disappointed, kids can become rigid, lack confidence and struggle with unreasonable expectations.”

During meltdowns or disappointments, she recommends sitting quietly, listening, and then empathizing and helping put the children’s feelings into words.

“This is not the time to lecture or advise,” she says. “Upset children can’t really listen.” Yet, they can be heard—a key way to help them mature.

Parents that learn to simplify happily discover that their children feel calmer and more loved, socially and emotionally adept, and resilient. Concepts focused on creating connections, rather than parenting perfection, are easy to weave into everyday life.

Karl Humiston was directly trained by Ida Rolf, PhD. Bonnie Humiston is a Guild Certified Feldenkrais® teacher and trainer, who studied directly with Moshe Feldenkrais for 10 years.

Fundamentally these methods work by restoring something that has been lost, by returning your body's structure and movement patterns to the "blueprint of perfection" that was given you in the beginning and the potential for which remains in you. When our work succeeds in restoring this, all kinds of problems get better because they cannot stay bad when your "blueprint" is restored.

ELF: You have a magical gift as a medical intuitive. Can you elaborate on your gift of intuition and clairvoyance?

DC: My gift as a medical intuitive is that I can see and understand the root cause of any issue a person is dealing with. When we talk, and this can be on the phone or in person in my beautiful healing sanctuary, I open the portal to your subconscious, so you can quickly discover the root causes of your dis-ease, which is usually hidden emotions. Once we bring them to consciousness, we can effectively deal with them and the healing process can begin.

r. Carolle Jean-Murat MD, FACOG, believes the journey to vibrant fertility should be peaceful, fun and stressfree.

By working with me, a woman can find out if she really is infertile and whether she needs to embark in infertility treatments and procedures that can cause lots of emotional, physical and financial stress, the deterioration of her relationship with her husband, as well as the unwanted consequences on her health and that of her baby conceived through unnatural means.

Plus, I get the wonderful opportunity to help heal two lives.

It’s so important that the mother-to-be is spiritually, physically, emotionally and mentally healthy for the baby to truly feel safe in the womb. If mother is in a constant state of fight-or-flight, that can be felt in utero. By helping her heal, we create a safe, spiritual womb for the child to enter.

Can you elaborate on the three-step process you use with your clients?

This process took me years to develop because I wanted those who agree to work with me to have a true life-altering experience. In step one, I have them dig deep into their psyche to find out what is going on in their lives, what they are yearning for, and what they want from me.

Taking the time to do this opens that portal deep in their subconscious where, often for the first time, they “see” their true selves. Those few hours of introspection reveal what I call their cake, slice by slice. This step alone can be as effective as years of therapy.

In step two, we painlessly go even deeper together to discover the root cause of it all. You’ll finally understand yourself and why each slice of the cake doesn’t work. Then you’ll get the real recipe on how to make it work and you’ll have some more homework to do.

While I’m hugging you, I’m praying to the Holy Spirit to allow all the healing of the Universe to come through me to help heal you.

Then comes step three, where I review your homework to make sure you’re on the right path and give you additional feedback. If you feel guided, we can continue working together for a few weeks or months, reshaping your new self and fulfilling whatever you need to have the most wonderful, stress-free and productive life.

I think it’s important to note that you also still help those without fertility concerns.

Absolutely. I’m always more than happy to help those men and women who are ready to heal and are seeking a better quality of life.

Your wellness center really gives off the vibes of a truly enchanted healing space. What’s it like to do an in-person consultation or retreat there?

There is so much healing intention infused here, including color therapy. When you walk into my sacred garden, I am there to greet you. I open my arms, give you a big hug and let you know that you are going to be OK. While I’m hugging you, I’m praying to the Holy Spirit to allow all the healing of the Universe to come through me to help heal you. You will know you are safe.

And you can release your worries and feel comfort in knowing your life will never be the same after our time together. You will change, for the better. For those that feel called to come see me, I can’t wait for you to experience it.

wise words

Erling Kagge on Our Deep Need For Silence

by Randy Kambic

Silence in itself is rich. It is a quality, something exclusive and luxurious, and also a practical resource for living a richer life. Silence is a deep human need that in our age, has ended up being scarcer than plastic bags from Louis Vuitton. To me, silence is a key to unlock new ways of thinking. I wanted to write about silence because I consider it nearly extinct.

Which insight from the great thinkers cited in your latest book means the most to you?

The Roman philosopher Seneca, 2,000 years ago, said, “Life is very short and anxious for those who forget the past, neglect the present and fear the future.

When they come to the end of it, the poor wretches realize too late that for all this time, they have been preoccupied in doing nothing.”

Everything Earthly can be snatched away in an instant. Life is long if you know how to use it. Even if we were to live 1,000 years, our lives would feel short if we threw away this present time. We exist, but few of us actually live.

our sanity and happiness and how it can open doors to wonder and gratitude.

Kagge, whose previous books address exploration, philosophy and art collecting, runs Kagge Forlag, a publishing company in Oslo, where he lives.

What have been the most helpful takeaways from your experiences?

Your mind—in silence—can be wider than the sky. Silence is about getting inside what you are doing—experiencing, rather than overthinking, and not living through electronic devices and other people.

xplorer, publisher, art collector and author Erling Kagge inspires us to find silence around and within us as a transformative experience.

The lengths he’s gone to make himself an authority in this pursuit include being the first person to complete the Three Poles Challenge on foot—the North and South poles and Mount Everest summit.

He has also traveled to Japan to meditate and practice yoga.

The Norwegian’s seventh book, Silence: In the Age of Noise, selected as a 2017 Great Read from the Indie Next List, recounts his experiences and presents observations of many past and present poets, philosophers, artists and other explorers—including Plato, Aristotle, Søren Kierkegaard, Oliver Sacks, Blaise Pascal, Martin Heidegger, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Stendhal, Denis Diderot and Mark Rothko—in exploring where we find silence and how to invoke it to improve well-being. It provokes reader reflection, demonstrating the kind of active engagement Kagge believes silence invites. He explores why it’s essential to

Why do you consider silence, “the new luxury”, more important now than ever before?

Where may silence be found?

It’s easier to find silence than many people think or believe. I walked alone to the South Pole for 50 days and nights under the midnight sun in search of total silence; but I never found it before I turned inwards toward inner silence and uncovered forgotten sides of a universe just as mysterious as outer space.

One universe stretches outward, the other inward.

Are there practical steps to achieve a state of silence?

You can shut out the world and fashion your own inner silence whenever you run, cook food, have sex, study, chat, work, think of a new idea, read or dance.

Silence is not about turning your back on your surroundings, but the opposite; it’s seeing the world a bit more clearly, staying on a course and aiming to love your life as much as you can.

I had to use my legs to go far away in order to discover this, but I now know it’s possible to reach silence anywhere. One only needs to subtract. It’s about finding your own South Pole.

Multilevel Healing Embracing All Dimensions of Well-Being

D

by Linda Sechrist

r. Wayne Jonas’ curiosity was piqued after hearing stories of patients that have experienced healing from chronic illnesses or reclaimed well-being without following conventional medical advice. So he focused on researching dimensions of heal-

ing that Western medical schools never taught him. The rewards were radical discoveries: whole system science exploring the web of connections within the body; the need to acknowledge an individual’s core multi-dimensions—body/external, behavior/lifestyle, social/emotional and

spiritual/mental—and what’s needed to unlock each person’s inherent capacity for health and healing.

The author of How Healing Works: Get Well and Stay Well Using Your Hidden Power to Heal, Jonas concludes, “Only 20 percent of healing comes from the treatment agent the doctor applies. A full 80 percent of the healing potential, which lies dormant in everyone, comes from constructing a meaningful treatment response unique to you. This is internal, highly personal and uses simple principles and components.”

During his 40-year career, Jonas was able to observe multi-level healings with patients, as well as through other professional roles. He’s served as director of the Office of Alternative Medicine at the National Institutes of Health, a research scientist at the World Health Organization, CEO and president of the former Samueli Institute and director of the medical research fellowship at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research.

Applying whole system science, Jonas developed the view of a patient as a veritable ecosystem. “We are more like a garden to be cultivated than a car to be fixed. Healing emerges when we support and strengthen the connections within us—body, behavior, social and spirit— making us more whole,” says Jonas.

His broader approach for healing now includes the impacts of beauty, order, an

healing ways

optimal healing environment, connecting with nature, elements that induce an individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest meaning response, nourishment of the spiritual self, making time for joy, the roles of love and the physical presence of loved ones and a supportive social network, as well as the energetic contributions of other social interactions and emotional dimensions.

For nearly 40 years, James Oschman, Ph.D., author of Energy Medicine: The Scientific Basis, has been conducting research in physiology and the biophysics of energy medicines worldwide, including at Cambridge University, in England, and Case Western Reserve University, in Cleveland, Ohio.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Medical doctors are unaware of the bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s energy field because they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t taught anything about it or physics in medical school. Although the vast majority believe there is no science behind energy medicine or any that proves the body even has an energy field, it is real and has been measured,â&#x20AC;? says Oschman.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passionate about including energy medicine in healing, and says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;To understand the human body, health and healing, you have to look at all dimensions without any exclusions. No aspect of science, medicine or life should be left out. All medical interventions and everything you do to the body involves energy.

An awareness of this can fully transform any medical approach.â&#x20AC;?

Jonas experienced the energetic dimension of healing when his wife, Susan, was undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.

Although skeptical, he tried the process of laying his hands on her while imagining a soft, white light filled with love being transmitted through the top of his head, down through his hands and into her body. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew of the dozens of experiments done at Walter Reed Army Institute of Research. When meditating individuals put their hands around test tubes containing immune cells, the amount of infrared radiation emanating from their hands increased, which stimulated the immune cells to produce more adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy-producing molecule found in all cells. After this exposure, those cells survived better when hit with stresses such as heat and chemical shocks,â&#x20AC;? says Jonas.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Susan said that she could feel something and fell asleep. The next day, she felt less fatigued, slept less and was more active. From then on, I cut back on travel and made sure my bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;in all its physical, social and emotional dimensionsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;was around,â&#x20AC;? says Jonas.

To help patients and doctors expand their own perspectives, Jonas has developed a healing-oriented practices and environments (HOPE) consultation protocol (DrWayneJonas.com/ resources). It includes questions a doctor or patient can use to spark pivotal lifestyle changes that cover optimal healing dimensionsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;inner, interpersonal, behavioral and externalâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;to evaluate measures that facilitate or hamper healing.

Sincerely responding to the answers shows results. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With chronic diseases, it can almost always enhance wellness and well-being, and improve function, whether the disease is cured or not,â&#x20AC;? says Jonas.

Enhance Your Life and Relationships with the Enneagram

by Michael Mitchell

T

he word Enneagram means “9 styles” and refers to the nine basic personality styles of people.

Through observation of these styles, we learn that not only is everyone born with a personality, but it is shaped by parents, friends and culture. Much of our personality is ego driven and stems from the unconscious. Usually at some point in life, we start to observe our behavior—especially when we are in relationships. As we become more conscious and awake we can began to change our behaviors.

The Enneagram, a very old system of observation, recognizes that each of the 9 personality types has their own specific patterns, as well as gifts.

The 9 types are as follows: 1. The good person 2. The giving person 3. The great person 4. The creative person 5. The thinking person 6. The questioning person 7. The enthusiastic person 8. The strong person 9. The peaceful person Three of the types are predominantly mental/head types, three are heart or feeling types, and three are body-centered or gut types.

While everyone has a little bit of all nine personality types in them, and therefore can relate to all types, we each have a basic personality type that defines how we relate to the world. As we mature, 24

San Diego Edition

we learn to appreciate all types of people and appreciate our own unique personality with its gifts and strengths.

The goal of Enneagram work is to help people make rapid advancements in their psychological and spiritual growth.

The results from this outstanding work can help in one’s personal and professional life. In fact, this personality work is used by management in many major corporations including Google, IBM, Dove and Nike. It is also used by the CIA to profile people.

Personality Party Utilizing the Enneagram

Elaine Russo, publisher of the San Diego edition of Natural Awakenings magazine, is teaming up with Rolf practitioner Michael Mitchell, owner of Body Solutions 101 in Solana Beach, to begin hosting Personality Parties utilizing the wisdom of the Enneagram. Their first gathering is being held on August 15 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in Encinitas.

The Enneagram is a very old system of observation recognizing that each of the nine basic personality types has their own specific patterns as well as gifts. Mitchell, who has studied the Enneagram extensively for over two decades, shares, “This system is one the most powerful ones I have found in my 30 years of inner work.”

According to the pair, the goal of Personality Parties is to introduce the system to others while making it a creative and fun experience. “We’ll use music, experiential exercises, dancing and more to create fun interaction among participants while helping them find tools to help them make rapid advancements in their psychological and spiritual growth,” affirms Mitchell.

“I’ve learned so much about myself through my studies with the Enneagram, which helps you utilize your dominant personality in a healthy way,” says Russo. “This self-awareness helps to enhance your healthy relationships while allowing the letting go of relationships that aren’t good for you. Plus, it’s just a fascinating system to learn.”

To reserve your spot, call Michael at 760715-2122 or Elaine at 760-436-2343.
