I WROTE A BOOK!

Hi my dear friends!  Please forgive my lack of newsletter for a few weeks: I was putting my writing efforts into finishing my new book about Do It Yourself Energy Medicine!   A few years ago, my dad needed some help with some medical issues, and I wanted to send him some how-to videos.  Unfortunately, he didn’t have Internet access at his house.  I realized I should really put some information down into a booklet for him.  Then I thought as long as I was going to the trouble, I might as well put some proper explanation and context to it.  So, I did!  Written as a love-gift for Dad, and expanded so that everyone can benefit, my new book “Your Qi Matters” will be arriving hot off the presses Monday at the clinic!  Books are just $25. – ask for one at your next appointment or email office@longevitywc.com.

Or you might want to come to this fun local Authors and Artists event!  https://2bediscovered.com/july-event It’s on Friday, July 20th from 4-7 pm at Unity Church in Sarasota, but you have to register!  I got to attend this event last month with a different theme, and it was one of the most beautiful and enjoyable gatherings I’ve been to.  I am also honored to be leading Qigong at the Labyrinth at sunset / 7 pm!  Tickets are just $5!  AND Longevity’s own long-time favorite naturalist author and my writing mentor, Fran Palmeri, will also be there with her latest book!  At 82, there’s just no stopping her!  When I told her I had sent my book off to the printers, she said, “Good!  ….Are you working on your next one yet?”  LOL!  She has an indomitable spirit.

To those of you who are considering learning more about energy medicine: I am so grateful to anyone who wants to get themselves stronger using energy medicine.  It’s the best medicine because once you learn it, it’s free, there’s no side effects, and you get stronger every day you do it!  I am lucky to have been introduced to this type of energy medicine, called Qigong and pronounced CHI-GONG, many years ago through my martial arts training.  These techniques are the same techniques martial artists and warriors used to strengthen their bodies so that they could endure the necessary training and combat.  Recently, I have started teaching qigong class on Friday mornings at 8:30 and the transformation in our participants has been nothing short of miraculous.  Fran and I and the rest of the crew are aging backwards!

Would you like to join?  We’d love to share the fun with you!  Class is just $5.  Just click here to register:

Johari Window and Organic Acids Test

Have you ever heard of the four quadrants of “What you know that you know, what you know that you don’t know, what you don’t know that you know, and what you don’t know that you don’t know?”  That’s a quick and dirty synopsis of a Johari Window.  

Examples:

What I know that I know: how to get to the grocery store from here.

What I know that I don’t know: example: how to send a manned rocket to Mars

What I don’t know that I know: this is a cool one, because sometimes there are things you have become expert on without even noticing, like: how to hopscotch while holding a beer in one hand and listening to Bob Marley

And finally: What I don’t know that I don’t know.  Now that last one will get you.  That’s the biggest blind spot in the world and when it comes to our health, blind spots over time can cause trouble.

The Organic Acids test is one of my favorite tests to help eliminate some of those blind spots.  Here’s what it does that’s so cool.

  1. Identify nutrient deficiencies: Organic acid testing can help identify nutrient deficiencies in the body, such as vitamin B12, magnesium, and zinc, which can lead to a range of health problems.
  2. Detect metabolic imbalances: The test can detect metabolic imbalances caused by genetic factors or environmental factors such as stress, poor diet, and exposure to toxins.
  3. Identify gut dysbiosis: Organic acid testing can identify imbalances in gut bacteria, which can lead to digestive problems, autoimmune diseases, and other health issues.
  4. Identify mitochondrial dysfunction: The test can identify mitochondrial dysfunction, which can cause fatigue, muscle weakness, and other symptoms.
  5. Monitor treatment progress: Organic acid testing can be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatments for nutrient deficiencies, metabolic imbalances, and gut dysbiosis.
  6. Personalized treatment plans: The test results can be used to develop personalized treatment plans that address the specific imbalances and deficiencies identified in the test.

Here’s a short video on Organic Acids.  This test is just $350, and you can schedule it at your next appointment.  Or just email me at office@longevitywc.com and let me know you’d like to book this.
