Why Hire a Matchmaker?
In today’s fast-paced and impersonal times, the search for love can be a daunting task. We have been wisely conditioned to fear strangers yet when looking for love most people throw caution to the wind by meeting strangers online. Very little is known about these people and are often not who they pretend to be. An experienced Matchmaker hand picks screened and good potential matches for their clients. Their identification and intentions have been verified and they have successfully passed the screening process. They have hired a Matchmaker to find their partner and to simplify the search process in a safe and effective way. When looking for love it makes sense to leave it to the professionals!
Coffea cruda for ADHD
When a person first drinks a strong cup of coffee they may experience racing thoughts, palpitations, increased urine production, shaking hands, excitability, restlessness, and poor sleep if drank close to bedtime. While coffee produces these symptoms in a healthy individual, a child with ADHD is likely to benefit from the homeopathic preparation of coffee (known as Coffea cruda) to relieve these symptoms. Without realizing it, conventional medicine sometimes uses the homeopathic Law of Similars. Ritalin is actually a stimulant and is used the same way as homeopathic coffee. The difference is homeopathy doesn’t come with a long list of side effects like the conventional medication.
Cleaning Products and Your Health
While it’s important to keep your home clean and tidy, some chemicals lurking in common household cleaning products are very harmful, especially for children and pets. People often use bleach, degreasers, disinfectants, thinking they’re safe, but studies show that some of their chemical ingredients can be linked to many diseases, including cancer. When these are absorbed through your skin or inhaled, they can potentially cause issues with the eyes, skin, kidneys, liver, respiratory system and central nervous system. Choosing cleaning products with natural ingredients, like Orange TKO, can help ensure that your home is clean and safe for yourself and others.
Reiki Really Works
Reiki is an energy healing treatment that works holistically on the whole body, mind, and spirit. Natural healing vibrations are transmitted through the hands of a Reiki practitioner to the body of the recipient. Reiki treatment can relieve stress and pain, induce relaxation, release emotional blockages, accelerate natural healing, balance subtle energies, and support other medical modalities, including traditional therapies. Reputable medical facilities are now offering patients alternative healing programs such as Reiki and are analyzing the benefits and submitting them for review and compilation. Look at your options on how you can learn Reiki to experience personal healing and to help others.
Stay Active to Maintain Health
Being physically active can help with injury prevention, maintain health and improve mobility. If we don’t use our muscles or move our joints, we can “rust” just like a piece of machinery that is left to sit idle. Being active does not necessarily mean lifting heavy weights or running a marathon. It can be as simple as performing gentle prescribed exercises, mobility drills, and active release stretches that can help us maintain mobility and prevent injury. Making small changes in our routine can have huge impacts on whole-body health, the healing process and general well-being. Contact us – we can help you get started.

Bioresonance Therapy for Focus Issues
It’s back to school time, and that means kids will be hitting the books again. Those with focus issues/ADD/ADHD may find that school is more challenging. If they’ve been exposed to heavy metals, focusing can be an even bigger issue, since the presence of heavy metals in the body can keep neurons from firing properly and passing messages to all parts of the brain. Bioresonance therapy may be a good option for helping to cleanse the liver and other metabolic disorders in kids with focus issues/ADD/ADHD, addressing possible underlying causes of the condition and helping to lessen symptoms.
