Wellness Programs Overview
Healthy Living regularly organizes health seminars and wellness workshops.
Health seminars are an extension of the topics discussed in Healthy Living (HL) lectures and dinner lectures series. During seminars, these health topics are explored in-depth over the course of one day or several days.
Our current guest presenter, Michael Rossoff, L.Ac. addresses topics that integrate Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), principles of macrobiotics and Western scientific perspectives, with different degrees of emphasis.
Starting in 2009, HL initiated a series of workshops and dinner lectures that introduce the lay-person with the basic concepts of TCM. The goal is to create a larger framework to understand the fundamentals of the “energy medicine” paradigm and offer ways to put these principles into practice for everyday self-care whether in cooking, body awareness, acupressure, and home-remedies.
Healthy Living has teamed up with several practitioners of TCM to present a five-part workshop entitled, Introduction to Energy Medicine: Using Traditional Chinese Medicine for Basic Self-Care. The workshop is offered from June 2010 to June 2011.
On August 14 and 22, 2010, Hl is offering a self-help workshop in the art of Jin Shin Jyutsu® Physiology- Philosophy, an ancient art of breath work and gentle acupressure that harmonizes the life energy in the body to clear blocked energy. By developing awareness of the life force within you and learning simple ways to harmonize it with your body system, you can easily become more engaged in maintaining your own balance, health and happiness.
Please note that while Jin Shin Jyustsu is one of many Asian modalities of body energy balancing work and, while it may bear similarities with some, its system is unique. It can be used with other healing modalities, including Western medicine.
Kathleen Kane, a 19-year full time practitioner of Jin Shin Jyutsu will teach this seminar.
In addition to the workshop, a dinner and introductory lecture on the art of Jin Shin Jyutsu® Physiology- Philosophy will take place on Thursday, August 12.
