I just came back from two weeks in Mexico and Guatemala visiting all of the Mayan temples ruins and pyramids, experienced four Mayan Shaman’s ceremonies, sweat lodge, fire ceremonies,entered the Stargate on 11.11.11, and visited the Mayan village in Chichicastenango. I wanted to feel the energy of 11.11.11 and also understand the Mayan prophecies of 2012. The Mayans were an extremely intelligent race, who no doubt had help from terrestrials in understanding the ascension of mankind.

When one is on, the other shuts down, Kerr says. “But meditators are using this default network in unusual and novel ways,” Kerr explains. “People who meditate don't get lost in mindless negative chatter. Meditation protects you from repetitive negative thinking, which puts you at risk for depression.” Meditation Improves Concentration People who meditate may be able to use their brain in ways others can't to tune out distractions and focus on the task at hand. A new study shows that experienced meditators may have less activity in parts of the brain associated with daydreaming and distraction while meditating and in their day-to-day lives. Researchers say this brain network, known as the “default mode network,” has also been linked to anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and Alzheimer's disease. “The default mode is when you ruminate, think about yourself, or daydream,” says study researcher Judson Brewer, MD, PhD, Medical Director of the Yale Therapeutic Neuroscience Clinic. “Everybody has it, but experienced meditators have a different type.” Brewer found that people who meditate are able to link up other parts of their brains to monitor activity in the default mode network that tell them to get back on task when distractions arise and be present in the moment. In the study, researchers used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to analyze brain activity in 12 experienced meditators (more than 10 years of experience practicing mindfulness meditation) and 12 novice meditators. The scans were done as they practiced three different types of mindfulness meditation as well as at rest. The results showed that experienced meditators had less activity in the default mode network, regardless of the type of meditation they practiced. In addition, the scans showed that when the default mode network was active, other brain regions responsible for self-monitoring and thought control were also activated in experienced, but not novice meditators. “The finding sheds light not just on meditation's effect on the brain but on some basic brain operations that may have implications beyond meditation,” says Catherine Kerr, PhD, Director of Translational Neuroscience at Brown University, who has studied the effects of meditation on brain wave activity. Kerr says the brain has two networks, the attentional network and the default network. The attentional network is usually focused on something external, such as a manual task. The default network is involved in internal chatter and daydreaming. Usually these networks work exclusively of Guidelines for Safe Neti Pot Use Stuffy sufferers who rely on neti pots for sinus relief face a new threat, but can avoid risks with some simple steps. The news that two neti pot users in Louisiana died from a brain-eating amoeba has prompted an alert and a health warning from experts. The pot, which resembles a small watering can or teapot, is still highly recommended by doctors for patients who suffer from sinus congestion. It’s not the the neti pot itself that can be harmful, it’s the liquid that people use to irrigate sinuses that can cause harm, said Dr. Satish Govindaraj, assistant professor of otolaryngology at Mount Sinai Hospital. Govindaraj, who recommends the neti pot to many patients, offers this advice: • Keep it clean: Make sure you wash the pot regularly with hot water and a little antibacterial soap. Clean it every day. • Don’t use tap water. Govindaraj recommends using distilled water or premixed packages of solution. • Replace your pot. Get a new one every few months. The hot water and washing can cause the plastic to weaken over time. No Copyright for Yoga Poses Downward-facing dog can no longer be copyrighted. Regulators have decided that yoga poses are “exercises” not “choreography” and can’t be copyrighted like they used to be. The ruling was sparked by a trademark lawsuit by Bikram Yoga College of India against New York’s Yoga to the People and Evolation Yoga. The Indian school claims the New York studios appropriated his methods and exercises. They counter that the sequences and poses can’t be copyrighted. Bikram Yoga lawyer Robert Gilchrest noted that the Copyright Office has issued hundreds of copyrights for exercise videos. Regulators have announced that yoga poses, such as head to knee touches and its sequence of moves are not choreography. Instead, they are exercises that cannot be copyrighted in the United States. Previously, the United States Copyright Office allowed yoga poses and their sequences to be registered with their office, even if the poses were in public domain. Laura Lee Fischer, the acting chief of the office’s Performing Arts Division, said that yoga and other exercises “do not constitute the subject matter that Congress intended to protect as choreography. We will not register such exercises (including yoga movements), whether described as exercises or as selection and ordering of movements.” Yoga to the People, based in New York, had a complaint filed against it by Bikram’s Yoga College of India. Other businesses that were sued include Evolation Yoga of Buffalo & Brooklyn, New York and Yen Yoga of Traverse City, Michigan.

Get Bowen! www.bewellnow.com Bowen Therapy is renowned the world over for its remarkable efficiency, it simply works to reduce inflammation and pain as well as correct misalignment. It truly answers a question that patients and their therapists are left asking sometimes of just why chronic pain doesn’t simply get better? My knee is much better – I’m frankly amazed at how well Bowen works for the effort required to administer the therapy–Bowen must rank as the most energy efficient therapeutic modality in the world. In past therapeutic sessions for this same problem, I’ve been yanked, cranked, cracked and poked without nearly the same results–very impressive.” — Andrew Munawera, AGE 37 The effectiveness of any therapy in the treatment of pain, inflammation or misalignment should be �black and white’. Most clients will know very quickly whether Bowen Therapy is going to be successful treatment for their problems regardless of how significant their present diagnosis may seem. The majority of clients seeking treatment come on average 3-5 times. It’s fantastic!!! Since 1 1/2 years ago, I had developed chronic pain in my left arm that’s remained so excruciating I couldn’t think straight and nor could I sleep. It was diagnosed as arthritis. I’d been to chiropractor, physiotherpist and masseur. Nothing helped. After the first Bowen Therapy visit it felt worse till the next morning where I felt nothing at all and I’ve been 100% since.” — M. Coulson, AGE 84 Developed in Australia by the late Tom Bowen (1916-1982). Bowen Therapy, named such after Mr. Bowen’s passing, is now being taught in New York by the North American Bowen Teaching College and by it’s president and founder, Jonathan Damonte of Vancouver, Canada.

Kundalini Shakti www.kundalinicare.com Within the deepest core of our being radiates a Divine presence that is our own true source. The fountain of our awareness and talent and drive, this sacred indweller is revered in the Vedic tradition of India as Kundalini Shakti, the living spiritual power within that illumines each of us and guides us to union with the One. Kundalini Shakti is the grand potential emanating from the heart of every human soul. The Holy Spirit, this divine inner presence is each individual’s own personal spiritual guide and transformative helpmate. The ancient spiritual science of Kundalini Vidya explains that Kundalini Shakti can reside in either a contained or a released and active state. When active, it leads the seeker through their inner maze of accumulated karmic issues and blocks to the sacred Source itself. Kundalini Vidya maps the specific, varied patterns and phases of spiritual development, revealing criteria for under- Master Chen standing spiritual advancement and stuck points. A Kundalini rising, whether subtle or remarkable, is a blessed responsibility that urges the individual's spiritual development onward, but it requires correct spiritual understanding, practice, and living to comfortably advance the process. “Stories of Spiritual Transformation,” the 2012 Maha Satsang (great spiritual teaching) offered by Patanjali Kundalini Yoga-Care, presents twenty revealing, inspiring, and poignant personal narratives, each describing a particular kind of Kundalini process, its improvement, and subsequent spiritual advancement. Each exemplar’s story will be explained by PKYC’s spiritual director, Swami Chandrasekharanand Saraswati, to show an overview of Kundalini process and increase understanding of spiritual life. Kundalini Vidya, The Sacred Science of Spiritual Transformation, by Swamiji's disciple Joan Shivarpita Harrigan, Ph.D.,describes the ancient teachings on which the conference is based. PKYC offers individualized spiritual guidance to serious seekers through spiritual assessments, personalized spiritual practices, and small retreats, giving support to efficiently advance their process to the experience of oneness with the One. “Stories of Spiritual Transformation,” April 10-15, 2012 in Knoxville, TN, is offered by Patanjali Kundalini Yoga-Care. www.kundalinicare.com. 865-531-2004. Swami Chandrasekharanand Saraswati JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2012 NEWLIFE 13 NewLife.Jan12.pg.03-22 12/23/11 1:55 PM Page 14 NATURAL COOK Winter Soups and Stock • Colombian Lima Bean and Corn Stew • Basic Vegetable Stock A warm and soothing bowl of soup can be full of good-for-you ingredients — just what you need to keep the winter blues away and lift your spirits. Most soups are easy to make and successfully take additional ingredients. Sample the soup as it is cooking and let your tastes inspire you, using any recipe as a base or just toss what’s in the refrigerator and cabinet in and voila! . There are soups made with beans, leafy greens, grains and vegetables and, in a variety of textures such as creamy, chunky, and chewy, giving you various ways to prepare the very foods that are filling and nutritious for you. A good base to start with for any soup is by using a stock. Making a stock may sound complicated and time consuming, but the procedure really only takes a couple of minutes and very little effort. It stores well in either the refrigerator or freezer. Once it's made you have a quick way of increasing the vitamins and minerals in any dish you're cooking. When making a stock from vegetables or their trimmings it’s preferable to use organic vegetables because their skins are sweeter and they've been spared chemical sprays and waxing. Stay away from cabbage, cauliflower, and other cruciferous vegetables since they have a strong sulphuric taste which will overpower the broth and can make it bitter. Rich tasting vegetarian stocks with depth of flavor are made by adding lentils, miso, or herbal sea salt. (Remember to reduce the salt in a recipe when using miso or herbal salt.) For fish stock, add a light meat fish or just its bones, head, and tail (and cider vinegar which draws out calcium into the broth) to the pot. Fish stock is best used for recipes that include fish only. Cook a vegetable stock about 15-20 minutes and a fish stock 20 minutes. Strain it and toss the contents just keeping the wonderful broth. To concentrate the flavors, and reduce the quantity, simmer uncovered until desired volume or taste has been achieved. You can also take a tip from chefs and add a flavor spark — a squeeze of lemon, a splash of vinegar or a few chopped tomatoes at the time of final flavoring. Stock can be frozen for many months. When you need some broth, just slip some into a pot and cover with a lid. Heated on a low flame, it melts quickly. Keep several kinds in your freezer. Also before freezing pour your favorite stocks into ice cube trays. Once frozen pop the cubes into a plastic bags and mark its contents. When you 14 NEWLIFE JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2012 need a little flavor boost, toss some into your cooking pot. It doesn’t take long before your caldron is ready and your meal. Easy to use and store beans for your soups are red and green lentils. They take very little time to cook and need no presoaking. Once added to any soup they will add richness to flavor and thickness to the texture as well as adding protein and fiber to your meal. Red lentils turn yellow ocher when cooked and basically completely dissolve after about 20 minutes. They thicken the broth and add a little consistency. Green lentils which are really brown when you buy them, take about 40 minutes to soften and can cook along root vegetables which can handle a longer cooking time. For cream soups, more often I use potatoes or oatmeal to give a rich and creamy texture. Sometimes at the end a little organic cream or butter is added to peak the richness. A basic cream soup can be made with or without the use of stock. Essentially toss any vegetable such as carrots, butternut squash, zucchini, etc. with 1-2 potatoes and cover with water. Bring to boil and simmer until the vegetables are soft. If you prefer add 1/4 of oatmeal instead of the potatoes, which will take about 20 minutes to cook. Puree and season. That’s it! Chunky soups are usually made with hearty root vegetables such as rutabaga, carrots, cabbages, beans, onions, parsnips, and anything you can find that you like to eat. They are a great way to use up leftovers. Pour water or stock over your previously made dish; add some fresh garlic and onion, perhaps some ramen or other favorite noodle. Bring to a boil and reduce heat simmering until tender, season and serve. How can you go wrong!! Chewy soups. To me these are stewy types that are thick and hearty stick-to your-ribs meals. They have less water and are robust and filling — sort of a chili consistency, which could even be called a soup. Beans and grains are usually a part of these soups. Add leftover brown rice or start with some barley and make a nourishing and filling meal. Soups are a fine meal for any time of the year. Here are some recipes to inspire your creative juices and you’ll see how quickly a meal can be made become ready to eat! COLOMBIAN LIMA BEAN AND CORN STEW 4 -6 GENEROUS SERVINGS This is the vegetarian version of the traditional dish Sanchocho, which is usually made with sausages, meat, and chicken, and adapted from Chef Gabriel Vasquez’s original vegetarian version. Saffron is known as a blood revitalizer and aids in assimilation. This hearty and scrumptious stew is a stick-to-your-ribs type of meal — all in one pot! Serve with a salad or sliced cucumber. PREP: 1 cup large lima beans, sorted, washed and soaked 6-8 hours or overnight. 2 - 2 1/2 cups soaked lima beans (1 cup dry) 8 cups filtered water 4 cloves garlic, peeled 2 bay leaves 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 2 onions, large diced 2 carrots, diced 1 green plantain, peeled and sliced (see note) 1 yucca or 2 taro, peeled and sliced 2 potatoes, peeled and diced 3 ears of corn, shucked and cut in rounds 1 large pinch saffron 2 teaspoons sea salt 1/2 teaspoon herbal sea salt 1/2 bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped 1/2 bunch scallions, coarsely chopped 1. Lift lima beans from soaking water into a large-size casserole pot and add 6 cups fresh water. Bring to a boil with whole garlic, and bay leaves, and simmer 30-40 minutes. 2. In a large sauté pan, heat olive oil and add onions, carrots, plantain, yucca, and potatoes, stirring after each addition. 3. Add onion mixture to lima beans and with corn and saffron. Add remaining 1 cup of water to sauté pan heating and stirring until the bottom of the pan is clean and the flavors from the onions and other vegetables have colored the water. Add to the casserole, bring to a boil, covered. Lower heat, and simmer until the beans are soft, about 30 minutes. 4. Add salt, cook another 5 minutes. This is a chock-full and soupy stew. Serve in roomy bowls garnished with several tablespoons of cilantro and scallions. NOTE: Green plantains are a larger size relative of the common banana and unripe. In their green state, they have a high carbohydrate content, and are cooked as a starchy vegetable would be. To peel, cut off the ends and score it down the side lengthwise. Pry open the skin and remove the plantain. For a sweeter flavor they can be used ripened with equal success. Yucca is a type of starchy tuber that can be substituted with taro, battata, jerusalem artichoke or any other tuber. Always peel them. VARIATIONS: Add celery, yams or butternut squash, and fresh fava beans or peas instead of lima beans. BASIC VEGETABLE STOCK YIELD: ABOUT 4-QUARTS STOCK Seasonings such as tomatoes and vinegar add a flavor spark and draw out minerals from the peelings. NewLife.Jan12.pg.03-22 12/23/11 1:55 PM Page 15 By Lissa De Angelis, M.S., C.C.P. Using stock in recipes is an simple and delicious way to incorporate micro-nutrients in your meals. 6-8 cups of vegetables and/or vegetable peelings (SEE NOTE) 4-5 quarts filtered water 1 bay leaf 1-2 teaspoons cider vinegar To these ingredients, add any or all of the following flavor enhancers; 3-4 sprigs parsley 3 or 4 black or white pepper corns 3-6 coriander seeds 2 chopped tomatoes 1 onion, quartered (peeling is not necessary) 1 carrot, quartered 1/2 orange or lemon peel, organic preferred 1/4 cup green lentils, sorted and washed 1. Put the peelings in a large stock pot with the water, bay leaf, and vinegar. Add any of the desired flavor enhancers and make sure the water covers the ingredients by 1 inch. Cover and bring to a boil. 2. Reduce flame and simmer until the vegeta- lima beans bles are soft, about 40 minutes or if using peelings 20 minutes. 3. Place a colander in a large bowl, and carefully strain the stock. Discard the vegetables, and spices. 4. Use the stock right away or set it aside to cool. Once cooled, pour the stock into storage containers. Indicate the type of stock and date on each container, and refrigerate or freeze them. Stock will last for 7-10 days refrigerated or for up to 6 months frozen. NOTES: F OR V EGETABLE S TOCK : Any combination of vegetables including onions, garlic, leeks, carrots, parsnips, parsley root, celery stalks with leaves, celeriac (celery root), or butternut, acorn or buttercup squash, cut into large pieces. Also, vegetable peelings are terrific to use such as onion and garlic skins, corn cobs, winter squash seeds, and all types of potato skins. The stock will be sweeter tasting if the peelings are from organic vegetables. Do not include cruciferous vegetables when making stock, such as cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts, since they are strong tasting and can be over powering. FOR FISH STOCK: Only use white meat fish. The bones, tail, fins, and head of fish such as cod, scrod, red snapper, catfish, flounder or sole. © LISSA DE ANGELIS, MS Lissa De Angelis, MS, CCP is co-author of Recipes for Changes: Gourmet Wholefood Cooking for Health and Vitality at Menopause.

It’s a book of wisdom that dates back past where we know. There are records of these cards in ancient Egypt, but no-one knows where they have come from. The tarot cards are derived from these cards in the Middle Ages in Europe. Each year of our lives, we are “dealt” cards to play. And knowing what cards we have been dealt is such a powerful realization that we use this idiom commonly in our language. We say things like, “it’s not in the cards for me.” And, other expressions like, “we all have to play the hand we’ve been dealt.” Once you know what your cards are for 2012, you have an amazing advantage. You have clarity. You have direction. You have clear meaning. That’s why this expression of finding out what’s in the cards for us is such a part of our vocabulary. But, even more important than finding out what’s in the cards for us, is learning how to play our cards right, another expression we commonly use. And, all these expressions about playing our cards make it clear that these cards have been used for this true purpose to play the game of life through out the centuries. Their meaning remained hidden to protect people from accusations of witchcraft by the Roman Church. But, the power of these cards is so strong that their meaning has crept into our every day vocabulary. You will never look at these cards the same way again. And you will have a whole new appreciation for expressions like, “he’s got that in spades,” or “what’s the deal anyway?” or “don’t get lost in the shuffle” or “we’re going to do that to the 9s” or “put your cards on the table.” A BOOK OF WISDOM The ordinary deck of playing cards is the original book of wisdom. The cards represent 52 archetypes or symbols of consciousness (plus the Joker). These patterns are played out in this lifetime in our dimensions of reality. The number 52, you may realize, is the number of weeks in a year. Adding 5 + 2 = 7. So, as in all numerology, the number 52 reduces to the number 7. And, there are 7 days / week. If you add all the values of the cards together — the Kings are worth 13, Queens 12, and Jacks 11 — then you get the 4 suits multiplied by (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13) = 364. All of the cards of all 4 suits add up to 364. There are 365 1/4 days each year. The Joker is the anomaly that makes up the remainder. He can impersonate any other card at any time. The Joker is worth 1 1/4 or �himself plus 1 each of all 4 suits.’ The ordinary deck of playing cards is not so ordinary. It repre- sents a tool kit to understand each and every day of the year as well as a tool kit to understand every pattern of consciousness that plays out on this plane of existence. ARE YOU ON THE RIGHT PATH IN 2012? If you want to know whether or not you are on the right path in 2012, then look no further. It’s in the cards for you to find out. Each day of the year is mathematically connected to a card. And if we are born on that day, then that card becomes our birth card by mathematical formula. There is no guess work. And this birth card reveals surprising and extraordinary truths about how you are and what you have come here to accomplish in this life-time. From this birth card, we can then calculate the 13 total cards we have in our life path. Similarly to astrology, each of our cards indicates aspects of our personality: where we can expect to find our greatest blessings, our shadow side, our love life, and our karmic challenges. We each have 13 cards to play for life. And that’s why we have the expression that we “have to play the hand we are dealt.” It’s a literal expression that we have taken as a mere figurative gesture. But the expression is so common that we use it whenever we mean to say that we have to make the best with what we’ve got. But every year of our lives is also read in the cards. And this is where it gets really fun. Each time the deck is reshuffled and re-dealt, according to mathematical precision (not randomly), then a new deal reveals the patterns for that year. And then we know clearly what we are meant to do for the current year. It is also immensely helpful to look to the cards for our relationships, as the patterns and connection between us can be read in the cards. We can discern what kind of energy patterns will exist between two people, and if the relationship is a good match, based on how the cards are positioned relative to each other in the life spread and then each yearly spread. These �ordinary’ cards will astonish and amaze you with their accuracy. It’s no accident that a whole field of entertainment for magic has grown around these cards or that an entire city, Las Vegas, was built on the power of these cards. The cards have a mystical potency that seems truly magical. In fact, there is so much to be revealed in the cards, it’s no wonder that whenever we want clarity about anything in our lives, we may say: “just put the cards on the table.” The cards clarify our life experiences. They reveal extraordinary truths for those courageous enough to find out what’s in the cards for them.

Now you can be part of this exciting company as NEWLIFE is bringing them to NY for the first time. I have been using these products for over a year now and truly believe they are the best nutritional products around. They are not available in the Health food stores or Drug Stores and can only be gotten online or through a distributor. For only $49 per year you can even buy them wholesale. People always ask me why I look so young and have so much energy. I tell them that I do yoga and meditate, practice the 11 Tibetan Rites, and eliminate meat and chicken from my diet, eat Superfoods and take GNLD Superfood supplements GNLD (Golden Neo Life Diamite) offers a better way of life to customers and distributors around the world. The company was established in 1958 by B y M a r k Jerry Brassfield, who from a young age suffered from serious allergy and asthma problems. Finding relief from his ailments with the addition of nutrients to his diet, Jerry decided to go into business sharing nutritional products with others. From there GNLD was born. It is a direct marketing health & wellness company which has grown to a billion dollar international empire having an extensive product range of super food health supplements being used by Olympic athletes, weight loss shakes, innovative anti-aging skin products as well as environmentally friendly home care products. In fact, all GNLD products are environmentally friendly and backed by the company’s extensive, well-qualified Stanford scientific advisory board. Over 50 years ago Jerry didn’t start out to build the world's leading nutritional company. He set out to build a community of people who care about living well. Living well means more than enjoying good health. It means taking control of B e c k e r JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2012 NEWLIFE 19 NewLife.Jan12.pg.03-22 12/23/11 1:56 PM your health, taking charge of your personal development, and securing your financial future. GNLD is one of the few direct marketing companies that received an A+ and an Accredited Business stamp by the Better Business Bureau. Imagine being paid to have the best products available for your health delivered to your house. The GNLD opportunity is designed to allow anyone, regardless of previous experience or training, to own his or her own business. Even more important, with a GNLD business, the sky is the limit. You can build your business as big as your individual ambition, talent, and energy permit. GNLD’s longevity and consistent growth for more than four decades is proof that the company is built on sound business practices GNLD’S PRODUCT PHILOSOPHY – BASED IN NATURE, BACKED BY SCIENCE Below are three of my favorite GNLD products: Omega -111 Salmon Oil Plus O ne of GNLD’s most popular products is Omega-III Salmon Oil Plus. It is the world’s finest ultra high potency fish oil, complete with standardized amounts of all eight omega-3s, with guaranteed purity. Today the latest scientific research not only continues to validate the important roles of EPA and DHA in human health, but it Page 20 has also shown that there is a whole family of omega-3 fatty acids, a total of eight in all, which contribute to optimal human nutrition. This critically important chain of dietary omega-3 fatty acids starts with ALA (alpha linolenic acid) and ends with DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), taking six important steps along the way. Each is now known to have its own unique biochemistry and supporting “synergistic” role in human omega-3 nutrition. POTENT FULL SPECTRUM: Each 3 capsule serving of the exclusive UHPO3 (Ultra High Potency Omega-3) formula provides 1,070 mg of total omega-3 fatty acids, including 460 mg of EPA, 480 mg of DHA, 50 mg of DPA and 80 mg of other omega-3 fatty acids. NATURAL: Salmon Oil Plus is based on pure, natural salmon oil, providing all the benefits and whole food goodness of one of nature’s richest sources of omega-3 fatty acids. Only GNLD eliminates the smell and taste molecules from their formula leaving you with 100% Omegas. Carotenoid Complex V irtually all modern recommendations for healthy eating include increasing our intake of fruits and vegetables. In addition to helping control weight and providing healthful fiber, fruits and vegetables are valuable sources of a wide variety of phytonutrients. Numerous studies link carotenoids — yellow, orange, red, and green pigments in fruits and vegetables — to reduced risks for cancer and heart disease, enhanced immunity, and tissue protection. Fruits and vegetables are the best sources of carotenoids, but most people do not eat the 5-9 daily servings recommended for optimal health. GNLD’s research has pointed to the carotenoids that are found in red, orange, yellow, and deep green fruits and vegetables. Daily Carotenoid Complex is an all-natural, lipidsoluble antioxidant supplement derived from tomatoes, carrots, spinach, red bell peppers, strawberries, apricots, and peaches. GNLD's revolutionary Carotenoid Complex delivers a broad and balanced spectrum of these important carotenoids. Carotenoid Complex is the only whole-food carotenoid supplement with clinical proof from USDA researchers that it can boost your immune system. Assuring that a product is bioavailable, meaning that after it is ingested, it actually is utilized by the body, is an important step in the development of any nutritional product. Daily Carotenoid Complex has been rigorously tested and proven to be highly bioavailable by numerous independent researchers, including several from the U.S. government! In fact, we know of no other nutritional supplement that can provide as much HUMAN bioavailability data as Daily Carotenoid Complex, Many researchers have chosen GNLD's Daily Carotenoid Complex for their studies because it is a broad-spectrum, wholefood carotenoid supplement that provides a consistent, standardized form of carotenoids that they can base their studies, and reputations on! Such scientific scrutiny assures you that the ingredients in Daily Carotenoid Complex are in fact reaching your body to do their work. After twenty days the immune system is stronger by 37%.

NewLife.Jan12.pg.03-22 12/23/11 1:56 PM Page 21 2 012 a Year of Challenge A B y Yo g i S r i D h a r m a M i t t r a ll suffering and pain experienced on the material plane is for the purpose of purification — the gradual cleansing of the mind, heart and intellect so that one day, in this incarnation or one of the next, we may at last have a complete vision of Supreme Reality. All yoga teachers and students, prepare yourselves! The year ahead will be a year of challenge. It will be a year that will provide many opportunities to really be of service to others. It will also provide us with the chance to discover how strong and faithful we truly are. To fully arm yourself, spend more time in contemplation and realize who you really are today! We are all a portion of the Almighty One; immortal, omniscient and formless. It is only by this knowledge that you will truly remain unaffected by the possible external state of turmoil. Stay healthy and share as much as possible spiritual knowledge with others so that their pain can be reduced. Acting in this way is the highest type of charity. Remember, belief is not enough! How unwise it is to sleep! (To float through life unaware of anything and without learning anything.) How foolish it is to remain unguarded and full of doubts! The wise man is always awake and fully prepared. He follows the rules and guards his knowledge. Compassionate to all, he lives happily and is immune to delusion. The wise man is ever ready to face any amount of pain that may be inflicted upon him at any time. But even the holy man’s body and mind are still subject to extremes of discomfort, since no one is immune to the forces of nature. Due to the present condition of everything, including the mental and spiritual, everything is moving, acting and changing perfectly. Everything is controlled by the Divine Laws of Nature, and everything is connected to everything else. Whatever happens to anything in any distinct area has an effect on everything else to some degree. Einstein saw this through the lens of Physics: “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” In Karmic terms, perhaps this is better expressed as: “For every action, there is an equal required action.” Or, “Everything we are passing through at present is a result of our deeds from the past.” If we were able to look back at every action taken in previous lifetimes, we would come to understand with clarity everything we are now experiencing from moment to moment. BE A LIGHT O nly a lit candle can light the unlit wick of another. Some who lose everything will feel that the world really has ended. If you have a little bit of knowledge and a little bit of self-control, you will be able to serve and help anyone and everyone you come into contact with both now and after everything begins to possibly shift and change. May Brahman bestow upon you the treasure of understanding this Divine knowledge! Om Shanti, Shanti, Shantihi.

A sophisticated visual analysis requires 21 different tests to determine your unique visual pattern. Most eye exams lead only to a prescription for glasses which reinforces visual weakness and may not uncover more fundamental visual problems, which may result in the following symptoms: eyestrain, fatigue, discomfort with your glasses or contact lenses, oversensitivity to light, short attention span, inability to concentrate, general nervousness and tension, headaches, blurry or double vision, poor reading skills, and academic underachievement, coordination difficulties, the need to rub your eyes, and permanent squint or frown. I will analyze your vision and prescribe special lenses and/or daily eye exercise to rid you of your symptoms and make your everyday life more comfortable. In addi- tion, I am the only optometrist in Manhattan who practices Photoretinology, i.e., the branch of ocular science that uses varying light frequency therapy. Due to Dr. Shapiro’s perspective and pioneering efforts in the field of vision therapy, he is well-received in both holistic and traditional medical circles. He practiced in one of the first holistic centers in New York City, Served as a staff member of the Chiefs of Ophthalmology of Manhattan Eye and Ear and Lenox Hill Hospitals, and served as astaff member and clinical supervisor at the New York Light House Low Vision Service. He has done grand rounds, workshops and lectures at 6 major metropolitan hospitals on the subject of functional vision testing and therapy. Call for information.

We come to this world open, vulnerable, and fully alive. Our mind, body, and spirit are integrated. Trauma, difficult experiences and societal expectations take a heavy toll, which cause us to create defenses- necessary at that time, but no longer serving any purpose. Core Energetics is an evolutionary process that uses physical techniques, energy work and verbal interaction to help open up the blocks in the body, release repressed emotions, challenge old beliefs, and allow for the energy to flow freely and without inhibition. When integration occurs and we feel safe enough to open our hearts, our outlook on life changes. Anette Kischinowsky is a Certified Core Energetics Practitioner, and a CTA Certified Coach with extensive training and experience in the performing arts. She creates a safe environment to address issues such as depression, anxiety, abuse, anger, grief, loss, family & relationship issues, stress and feelings of inadequacy.
