The Lack of Physical Boundaries in the Massage Therapy Profession

October 22, 2018 by Lisa Townsend

I just went on YouTube and looked at a few deep tissue massage therapy instruction videos. It seems like everyone is in on the video track these days so I have to come up with a plan to overstep them in quality. I need to show how I work. Most of them had inappropriate comments saying, “He/she can massage me any time!” Clients are paying for a professional service in an office, not a hook-up! The fact is, it doesn’t […]

The Root of Emotional Imbalance

October 11, 2018 by Lisa Townsend

From the Article; The Root of Emotional Imbalance in The Body The mind and the body are inseparable. Ancient Eastern civilizations have long understood the way our mental and spiritual bodies inform our physical nature. Western science too has begun to understand the interdependence between the emotional and physical body: we know the ‘gut’ acts as our second brain and stress is toxic. In fact, every organ corresponds to the energy of a certain emotion, and every disease stems […]

Internal and External Qi

September 29, 2018 by Lisa Townsend

I work with Qi in the form of Reiki in my office every day. I also work with it in my own mindfulness of my body. What I notice is that my emotions change as I change my body. We know that the hormone balance in the body changes as well with movement, exercise, and diet. Estrogen and progesterone bring emotions to the surface. Testosterone sends it inside. Emotions are internal Qi. Muscles and fat hold external qi although extra […]

How Rockefeller Founded Big Pharma And Waged War On Natural Cures

August 16, 2018 by Lisa Townsend

How Rockefeller Founded Big Pharma Western medicine has some good points, and is great in an emergency, but it’s high time people realized that today’s mainstream medicine (western medicine or allopathy), with its focus on drugs, drugs, radiation, drugs, surgery, drugs and more drugs, is at its foundation a money-spinning Rockefeller creation. People these days look at you like a weirdo if you talk about the healing properties of plants or any other holistic practices. Much like anything else, politics […]

#Nutrition Super Important #Potassium

August 2, 2018 by Lisa Townsend

Our bodies require a whopping 4700 mg of the mineral potassium every day. It’s actually in most foods we eat but because the requirements are so high, people rarely get enough. A banana only has 440 mg so that barely helps. The risk of chronic low potassium is heart failure. You could end up in the ER. Your heart especially needs potassium to work properly. In addition, if you take HBP meds or other medications, it can tap out your […]
