Do you know how important brain mapping is during rehab after injuries or surgery? Your brain creates a map of your entire body; when you are injured, that body map changes. The connection between your brain and the injured area loses clarity, and everyday living can remain difficult even after the injury itself is healed. Neuromovement® lessons can help your brain renew its map and add new, healthier brain connections. Don’t merely focus on strengthening or stretching muscles; recover with the power of your brain! Contact me to learn how Neuromovement® lessons can help you regain vitality.

As temperatures rise, it’s important to understand how to take care of your hearing aids. Beware of Heat! Avoid putting your hearing aids in places that attract heat quickly – like the glove compartment or console in your car. Stay Away from Moisture! Remember to take your hearing aids out before swimming or if you’re caught in the rain. Keep ‘em Clean! Warm, humid weather creates a breeding ground for germs and bacteria. You can use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris from your hearing aids. Follow these simple tips and get outside to enjoy the warm weather.

Buds are budding, and flowers are blooming! It’s time to get out in the sunshine and smell the fresh air. Remember to take time out for yourself and enjoy this spring weather. Take time to sit, relax, connect with nature, and do nothing. Taking time for yourself will make you happier, more productive, and better able to support your loved ones. If you have a challenge planning time for yourself, connect with Permelia. As a Certified Body/Emotion Code Practitioner, she can help you release any unprocessed negative (trapped) emotions to allow you to take time for yourself.

This is the time of year when many of us travel. If you are travelling, travel insurance that covers medical emergencies, trip cancellations, and interruptions is highly recommended, especially for seniors. A medical emergency in a foreign country and a hospital stay can easily cost $100,000 or more. If you get sick and can’t travel home from your destination, trip interruption insurance will cover your costs while you recover. If you become ill before you travel, trip cancellation insurance will reimburse travel costs. Travel insurance buys peace of mind. We wish you happy and safe travels.

Weight gain isn’t just about calories—it’s often a symptom of deeper imbalances. Hormonal shifts, stress, poor sleep, inflammation, and digestive issues can all contribute to stubborn weight. For many, midlife brings changes in metabolism, thyroid function, and insulin sensitivity, making weight loss harder. Carrying extra weight also increases the risk of heart disease, joint pain, fatigue, and diabetes. Acupuncture and holistic therapies can support healthy weight by improving digestion, reducing stress, balancing hormones, and increasing energy. You don’t have to do it alone.
