While we are aware there is a certain public health crisis going on, there is another, less discussed health epidemic that has been plaguing people for centuries: insomnia. Chronic sleep loss takes a big toll on your body - both inside and out. We see the short terms signs of sleep deprivation manifested every morning in the mirror after a restless or sleepless night. Dull complexion. Dry skin. Bags and dark circles under our eyes. Acupuncture is a safe, healthy way to achieve better sleep and also address those symptoms that are keeping you up at night and get to the root of why they are occurring in the first place.

Burnout. We’re all there. It’s exhausting. The good news? There’s a path through it.

In this episode of #UnlockingUs I talk to Drs. Emily and Amelia Nagoski about their book, Burnout.

I’ve been practicing their 7 “complete the stress cycle strategies” since we recorded the podcast and I must say: Total game changer!

HUGE learning for me: Dealing with the STRESSOR is just one part of dealing with burnout. The other part is dealing with the STRESS by completing the stress cycle and getting through that emotions tunnel.

Fall is in full swing and we love it! The metal component of autumn in Chinese Medicine incorporates organization, boundary setting, and communication. To set yourself up for success, write down a list of what you want to prioritize this season and what habits you wish to form to help gain clarity on what truly matters and what you can let go of. This could mean establishing a new exercise routine, finishing a creative project, figuring out how to spend more time with family, or saving up for a car or vacation. Whatever it is, use your list as a guide to help you stay focused on what truly matters.

Have you ever heard the term "Sunday Scaries"? It refers to the type of anxiety about the upcoming work or school week and overwhelming feelings of our to-do list. Stress can cause anxiety even if you don't realize it and having an acupuncture appointment scheduled to help will definitely give you something to look forward to! So kick those Sunday Scaries and schedule your next appointment today.

Don't forget that we are still available to help you with your pain, discomfort and health, even from a far. If you aren't ready to come into the office or if you are displaying COVID-like symptoms, our telehealth video calls allow us to continue to provide support while reducing risk and exposure and keep everyone safe and healthy. Herbs, acupressure, lifestyle and diet are as much a part of Chinese Medicine as acupuncture — no contact required. Visit our website to schedule a telehealth call today.

When our bodies perform at their very best, we are less susceptible to weak immunity and illness. Acupuncture helps to illicit a parasympathetic response in our bodies, allowing our nervous system to calm down and our body to repair. This is REAL change, from the inside out and how acupuncture can help heal many different ailments.

Burnout is REAL! We work with a lot of people who are totally overwhelmed. This goes beyond stress. We are talking about taxation on a physical, mental, and emotional level. Through Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, we are able to consider each person’s experience of burnout individually. We discuss how it impacts your emotions, sleep, energy levels, relationships, self-esteem, digestion, and more. Symptoms are important, but treatments always address their root pattern(s) to recover holistically. If you suffer from Burnout, it's time to turn things around. Contact us for your free consultation today.

The longer we've been hurting, the longer it takes to heal. There is no magic solution for chronic pain, but there is a better way to live your life! Let us help you get there, together.

Happy First Day of Fall! 🍂

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, each of our organs are paired with another, and they complement each other as either yin or yang. Each organ pairing is typically linked to the seasons of the year, and fall is associated with the Lung (yin) and Large Intestine (yang) meridians in the body. The Lung controls our respiration which also helps regulate the flow of water in our body. The Large Intestine takes care of releasing waste in our bodies.

Energetically, these two organs work together so that we can let go and make space for the new. As fall marks the beginning of the yin cycle of the year, we look inward to sift through what we might still be hanging on to in our lives that may have already outlived its purpose. Think about that today and through this season as we all try to look forward, renew and stay positive with everything that Autumn brings!

We were excited to have early access to the first book about burnout geared toward female entrepreneurs and can't wait for you to get your hands on it! The world is tired, burnt to a crisp, and in need of practical, grounded solutions to move forward through the current human experience. Now is the time to own this life, this experience, and the basic humanness of everything that we're all going through. Take the time to unwind the patterns, beliefs, and behaviors that keep us stuck on the burnt out cycle and move forward with an intention to be true to ourselves, to stay as aligned as we can, to live the lives we really love instead of the ones we're supposed to love! This book by author Caitlin Donovan is a game changer! 🤯
