How much do you know about Ayurveda? On our next CHI FOR YOURSELF we’ll hear from a woman who turned to this 5,000 year old tradition when she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Ayurveda resonated with Michelle Fondin because she was searching for ways to understand why she was sick and for ways to actively participate in her healing– rather than just turn it over to experts and protocols. Michelle Fondin is the author of THE WHEEL OF HEALING WITH AYURVEDA: An Easy Guide to a Healthy Lifestyle.

A Few Thoughts on the Inner Workings of Meditation
Meditation can be a useful tool in your overall health and wellness. We live in an electronic society and most might find sitting in silence and tapping into their quiet consciousness a bit challenging at first.
Our culture revolves around smartphones, electronic applications, social media and selfies. Most people shudder at the thought of not having their phone in their hands during their waking hours. This is a new form of stress and anxiety we’ve created as a modern society. Life can be stressful at times due to school, work, finances, family and relationships. We’re bombarded with negative news stories from television, cable, radio, internet and social media.
The average person will process the stresses of life and not think twice about it, unfortunately some will turn to prescription medications, alcohol and drugs to alleviate depression and anxiety. When we are out of balance we seek peace and serenity in any form to make us feel better. Meditation will help you quiet your mind, center your spirit and balance your life.
I love a good “overcoming obstacles” story, and that’s exactly what we got on last week’s CHI FOR YOURSELF with Frankie Picasso Frankie sketched out a period in her life when just about everything was going wrong. But she looked inside to find a way to work through that period and go on to have a life that really is Unstoppable! If you missed the interview you can get caught up by clicking on this player:

On last week’s CHI FOR YOURSELF we took on the issue of weight loss with out guests, Joy and Roy Martina, co-authors of Sleep Your Fat Away. I like that they stay away from the traditional methods of losing the pounds- things like diets and possibly dangerous pills.
Here’s a look at some of the talking points from that show:
Weight issues in their earlier lives
How their system works with natural sleep cycles
Comparing sleep programming with hypnosis
The virtual gastric band
Why is weight hard to take off and then keep off?
Intelligence as a whole-body system
Diet “truisms”- true or false?
Some practical tips on keeping pounds off

Overheard:
“Food cannot cause you to put on weight, unless you think it can.”
Join us as we welcome Joy and Roy Martina to CHI FOR YOURSELF. They’re the authors of Sleep Your Fat Away. The book outlines a system intended to help you re-train your unconscious mind to overcome addictions and change your lifestyle habits, so you can attain your optimum weight and become the healthiest YOU possible.
