You've likely noticed that "going green" is everywhere these days, in the news, politics, technology, and even fashion. You can hardly escape it from most angles of our life. But, what's the real point of going green, and is it worth the trouble? We Probably all have a general idea that going green helps the environment and saves resources and rain forest. But embracing a greener lifestyle isn't just about helping to preserve rain forests; it is also about improving your health, saving you money, and ultimately, improving your overall quality of life.

While it's easy to get overwhelmed with the stream of "go green" information everywhere, it's also easy to begin making a positive impact. As globalization decreases the size of the planet in terms of contact, communication, and interaction with people around the world, it becomes increasingly easy to see how the lives of people, animals, plants, and ecosystems everywhere are closely tied to one another. So, pesticides used in Bolivia can affect the health of people in the U.S.; toys made in China can affect the quality of life in Europe and greenhouse gas emissions from Australia can affect a thinning rain forest in Brazil.

The truth is, everything we do, every day, good or bad, has an impact on the planet.

The good news is that you have the power to control most of your choices at the individual level and, therefore, the control the global impact you create:

Where you live
What you buy, eat, and use
Where and how you vacation
How you shop or vote

For example, did you know that 25% of all Western pharmaceuticals are derived from plants that come from the Amazon rain forest? As it turns out, less than one percent of these tropical trees and plants have been tested by scientists. These numbers suggest that we all have a large personal stake in the health and vitality of places far and near and that this stake is growing. It benefits everyone on the planet to help keep our greenl spaces alive and growing.

We now offer Reiki and Shamballa

Reiki

Are you feeling disconnected? Are you feeling sluggish, have intermittent discomfort or constant pain? Are you feeling depressed or suffering from the effects of SAD disorder? Reiki is a wonderful natural pain reliever, stress reducer and has amazing neutralizing effects on depression and all around relaxation effects.

Many people are vaguely aware of energy work and if not they are usually familiar with acupuncture. The basic principle of Reiki is that it is the natural therapeutic use of energy. The Reiki energy is made up of the full spectrum of light found in sunlight, somewhat like a rainbow. This high frequency of light is directed to each major Chakra point. As acupuncture works with pressure points (often associated with Chakra points), Chakras are Energy Points. Each Chakra is a spinning wheel of energy, each one being a different colour and representing a different emotional, physical and psychological effect on the body. If any of these Chakra Wheels is not working optimally, it can impact your emotional, physical or psychological health. Malfunctioning Chakras can be the sign of dis-ease in the body as well, either way the Chakras are essential to our existence and it is therefore essential that we maintain them to allow harmonic flow of energy throughout our bodies.

The recipient will benefit from stress release, relief from pain, increased energy, higher degrees of intuition, relief from depression, better concentration, among so many other beneficial side effects

Shamballa

Are you looking for a way to expedite your spiritual growth? Are you working on personal growth and feel stuck? Are you struggling with giving and receiving love and or balancing your masculine and feminine energy? Shamballa is the energy of unconditional love and is the highest vibration of energy work available to us right now.

A Shamballa practitioner channels unconditional love energy with the assistance of St Germaine and the Alchemists transformative Violet Flame. The energy is generated through the practitioners heart Chakra and through the hand Chakras into areas of the body requiring attention. The principles are similar to Reiki as the Chakras are an entry point (however not the only point) for this beautiful, peaceful, gentle energy. This treatment allows the recipient to experience the Truth which is that Love is the only Truth. Through regular treatments the recipient will learn to balance male and female energy, giving and receiving love, and begin to practice unconditional love in their everyday lives. This allows the recipient the precious release of fear, judgment and pain in their lives.

**Energy treatment is not a replacement for medical treatments and it is not advisable to change any medical treatments without the consult of your doctor. The experience that energy treatments allows will vary each time you receive it.
