Below are the details for an conference that will be held later this month to help you deal with stress and burnout. Many more holistic medicine events are listed and I hope that there is one in your area that you find beneficial. But DO remember: “Stress is a thought. That’s it. No more, no less. If that’s true, then we have complete control over stress, because it’s not something that happens to us but something that happens in us.” (from the AHMA website)

Stressed? Tired? Burned Out?
Using Holistic Health to Treat and Prevent StressJoin us for an evening dedicated to adrenal health! Thursday, May 23, 2013 Three integrative practitioners will discuss the, often neglected, adrenal glands and how they affect your energy and wellbeing. Dr. Tamara MacDonald, Naturopathic Physician, will describe the “nuts and bolts” of how the adrenals work. This will include how to assess adrenal functioning and the basics of healthy adrenal support for better energy during the day and restful sleep at night. Ann Driscoll, Licensed Acupuncturist, will discuss the role of acupuncture, a modality of Oriental Medicine, in the treatment of “adrenal fatigue.” She will also highlight how Oriental medicine assesses the pattern of dysfunctional symptoms and will suggest both treatment options and lifestyle changes. Mary Ellen Derwis-Balaz, massotherapist and Chi Kung practitioner will speak about the practice of incorporating movement, breath and meditation, as found in Chi Kung, to support increased awareness, circulation and relaxation. This practice aligns easily with the other integrative approaches to adrenal health and in addition, empowers the patient through a personal investment in their holistic wellness plan. |
