Zero Balancing I      March 22-25, 2018

A 25 hour professional bodymind therapy training for health professionals with Michele Doucette DC

Zero Balancing is a leading-edge, hands-on, body-mind therapy. It combines the Western view of medicine and science from the field of osteopathy with Eastern concepts of energy and healing from the field of acupuncture. ZB affects the whole person (body, mind, and spirit) by providing both structural therapy and energy medicine simultaneously. It promotes a deeply meditative state in which sub-optimal tension patterns are easily released. Like adjusting the tension on a guitar string, ZB leaves a person more in tune with their essential being, more resonant with their true self…more relaxed, comfortable, resilient, awake, self-aware, grounded, and expanded.

YEAR OF THE ROOSTER 2017

By Kelly Kaeding | Published: January 28, 2017

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR

IMG_0487Saturday 28 January is the first day of the Chinese New Year, the year of the Fire Rooster.

Rooster years: 1909, 1921, 1933, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2017

Rooster qualities – commitment, loyalty, honesty and outspokenness – can help us all in 2017. The Rooster’s vivacious and charming energy draws people to them and they can be quite influential. In 2017 with Rooster energy abound, we can all be change-makers.

Don’t’ be afraid to take the spotlight and speak up for what you believe in.

With right effort, goals will be realized and projects completed.

Best place to start is with yourself and your health. Implement your exercise, meditation, nutrition intentions. 2017 brings an open slate for you to begin your next masterpiece.

In numerology, 2017 is a 1, which signifies new beginnings. Astrologer Gretchen Hidell advises that we choose to put our energy where we want to see it grow in the coming years.  “Energy flows where attention goes,” Gretchen always says. Listen to Gretchen’s You Tube video about 2017.

Here are some photos from the Sustainability Academy’s dragon and baby dragons, animated by students, family and friends of SA. Happy New Year to you and your family.

Death by Food Pyramid by Denise Minger

By Kelly Kaeding | Published: January 25, 2017

Death_by_Food_Pyramid_1

For years I have been frustrated with what I call the brainwashing of our society about what foods are healthy. Even medical professionals routinely recommend dangerously unhealthy diets to their patients. Where is the confusion coming from? Denise Minger hits the nail on the head with her new book, Death by Food Pyramid, and clearly shows where the food pyramid came from and why it is so up-side-down..

Denise Minger is research scientist with a doctorate in Nutritional Sciences who started her career with a powerful critique of The China Study, a study that condemns animal foods. She has since published hundreds of articles about health and nutrition. She advocates for traditional whole food diets which include healthy fats.

Michael R. Eades, MD, too, found her work fascinating and wrote a sort of cliff notes/blog trailer for it, which you can read here.

THE SKINNY ON FATS

By Kelly Kaeding | Published: January 24, 2017

We have been misled nutritionally for decades and I want you to know the truth. Here it is. Fats are good for you. Good fats are good for you, that is.grilled beef

Good fats are natural fats such as animal fats (beef, lamb, pork, chicken, duck, goose, butter, ghee), full fat dairy (preferably cultured), fish, eggs, coconut, nuts, seeds, avocado, and cold pressed oils (olive oil, fish oil, nut and seed oils – not heated).

Bad fats are processed fats, hydrogenated fats and cooking vegetable oils. These cause atherosclerosis, heart disease and cancer.[1]

The Questionable Link Between Saturated Fat and Heart Disease

By Kelly Kaeding | Published: March 25, 2016

Are butter, cheese and steak really bad for you? The dubious science behind the anti-fat crusadeimage001

This Wall Street Journal Article does a good job explaining why we ought to be eating what our grandparents or great-grandparents were putting on the table, i.e. eat butter, whole milk dairy, all kinds of meat, olive oil and other yumminess – not the vegetable seed oils, tons of grains and low-fat, high-sugar junk. Please read and psst, pass it on.
