Qi Coils™, a revolutionary new form of meditation technology, have recently gained popularity among those looking to improve their overall well-being, especially in the areas of stress management, sleep, energy, meditation, and pain management. The Qi Coils™ technology uses electromagnetic fields to promote relaxation and focus. The coils are placed around the body, and it is scientifically proven that the PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic fields) they generate help balance the body’s energy and promote a sense of well-being. The technology used in Qi Coils™ is non-invasive, contactless and easy to use, making it accessible to a wide range of people.

The Rites of Passage
Funeral rites are as old as the human race itself. Every culture and civilization has attended to the proper care of their dead. There are three common threads for death and the disposition of the dead: 1) Some form of ceremony, funeral rite or ritual, 2) A sacred place for the dead and 3) Memorials for the dead. Researchers have found burial grounds of Neanderthal man dating to 60,000 BC with animal antlers on the body and flower fragments next to the body indicating some form of ritual and gifts to the deceased.

Are You Feeling Fat, Fuzzy or Fatigued?
Many of us have symptoms of hypothyroidism but when we get bloodwork done, we are told we are “normal”, even when we feel anything but “normal”. Did you know that most thyroid problems are not actually a thyroid problem? Many times symptoms of hypothyroidism are actually vitamin deficiencies which leads to our body’s inability to activate or use thyroid hormones properly. Our pharmacists are trained in functional and integrative medicine, and we can help guide you through finding the proper supplements to make your thyroid work for you to get you feeling normal again.
