✨There’s something profoundly healing about realizing you’re not the only one carrying what you’re carrying.

Many of us move through life believing our struggles are isolated or uniquely ours. But when people come together in a safe, intentional space, something changes. Connection reminds us that healing is not meant to happen alone.

This January, we’re introducing a new Integrated Group — a long-term, weekly therapeutic group for adults of all ages and circumstances. The group is grounded in evidence-based principles of group healing, including shared understanding, interpersonal learning, and the quiet confidence that comes from both giving and receiving support.

In this space, participants have the opportunity to process life experiences, explore patterns shaped by past relationships, and build healthier ways of connecting with others, all in a supportive, professionally facilitated environment.

Details:

Mondays, ongoing
6:00 PM
$60 per session

If you’ve been feeling the weight of carrying things alone, this group offers a place to be seen, supported, and met with care.

✨Food-as-Medicine Friday: Savory Oat Bowls for Nervous-System Nourishment

Savory oats are one of the most supportive meals you can make right now. They ground energy, stabilize blood sugar, and deliver minerals your system relies on through colder months.

WHY IT WORKS:

Savory oats are one of the easiest ways to feed your nervous system without overthinking it. Oats naturally calm the nervous system, support digestion, and provide steady energy, and keeping them savory helps prevent blood sugar spikes that come with sweet breakfasts. Adding protein, greens, healthy fats, and minerals turns this into a complete, stabilizing meal that supports brain function, hormone balance, circulation, and stress recovery.

🥣 Simple Base Recipe

• ½ cup steel-cut or rolled oats
• 1½ cups water or bone/veggie broth
• Pinch of sea salt

Cook oats as usual, using broth if possible for extra minerals and warmth.

🥬Choose your toppings:
• Soft-cooked or jammy egg
• Sautéed kale, chard, or spinach
• Drizzle of toasted sesame oil or olive oil
• Sesame seeds or pumpkin seeds
• Optional: scallions, miso, or a splash of tamari

Winter meals should feel warm, steady, and regulating. This one checks every box. Save this for your weekend reset. ❄️

The Houston Marathon is on Sunday, and we want to say something simple: you made it to the starting line. That alone is huge. 🏁

This final stretch is all about support and steadiness.

Here are a few last-minute ways to give your body and mind what they need:

• Let sleep become your best friend. Let your body restore so it can perform.
• Hydrate throughout the day instead of rushing it the night before.
• Skip the intense workouts. Gentle stretching and mobility work serve you better now.

We’re cheering for every runner heading into the weekend. If you need support after race day, The Center is here!

🙌You’ve got this.🙌

✨Ordinary Mysticism: Your Life as Sacred Ground ✨
A 3-Day Immersive Workshop with Mirabai Starr
April 17-19, 2026

January often brings questions:

What’s working?
What’s draining?
Where am I craving something deeper?

Many want to feel connected again… to themselves, to something meaningful, to the world around.

This is the heart of mysticism. Not in the sporadic, distant sense, but in the everyday sense that Mirabai Starr teaches.

✨Spiritual experience isn’t something you chase. It’s something you notice in the quiet moments you normally rush through.

✨Awe isn’t rare. It’s available through presence, not perfection.
✨Meaning is already in your life. Mysticism simply trains you to see it.

Ready to mark your calendar? This spring, Mirabai Starr will be joining us in person for a 3-day immersive workshop exploring these seven gates of awakening: intention, attention, awe, teachers & teachings, community, feeling, and ongoing unfoldment.

If you’ve been craving something deeper or more restorative in your inner world, this experience offers that.

Happy New Year’s Eve from all of us at The Center for Healing Arts & Sciences ✨

As the year winds down, we hope you find a moment to reflect on what this year held, honor what changed you, and welcome the quiet before a new chapter begins.

We’re sharing a poem from The Center's Director & co-owner Leila-Scott M. Price, as a reminder that endings naturally make space for beginnings.

🖤 Wishing you a peaceful evening and a grounded transition into the year ahead.

The Houston Marathon is less than 2 weeks away, and if you’re in the taper phase, you might be feeling something unexpected:

👟Restlessness
👟Mood swings
👟Tightness that seems to appear out of nowhere.
👟More anxiety and less patience
👟Fatigue at odd times

First, you’re not doing anything wrong! This is normal.

During taper, your mileage drops, but your nervous system ramps up as your body repairs tissues, restores glycogen, and shifts into a more efficient metabolic pattern before race day.

This is one of the MOST important windows for holistic support because the nervous system is doing more work than the muscles are.

Here’s where our clinicians help runners the most in these final two weeks:

✨ Acupuncture to regulate stress, balance energy, reduce jitteriness, and support sleep.
✨ Bodywork to release subtle tension patterns before they become race-day obstacles.
✨ Nutrition support for stable mood, mineral balance, and recovery.
✨ Yoga therapy for grounding breath + movement when energy spikes or dips.

If you’re feeling mentally or physically off as the race gets close, you’re not alone! It’s a completely normal part of the process.

📲Call 713-597-8047 or visit thecenterforhas.com to schedule support heading into race week.

From all of us at The Center for Healing Arts & Sciences, we wish you a peaceful and nourishing holiday season. ♥️

The holidays can hold so many different experiences: celebration, grief, tenderness, rest, joy, memory, or simply the quiet of a slower day. However, this season finds you, we hope you’re able to care for yourself with intention and kindness.

Thank you for trusting us with your healing in 2025. Walking alongside you in the breakthroughs, the questions, the openings, and everything in between is something we deeply value.

May today offer you a moment of grounding, a breath that brings relief, and the reminder that you’re held in more ways than you realize.

Warm wishes from our whole team at The Center for HAS!

In Chinese Medicine, winter belongs to the Water element: a time for conserving energy, going inward, and supporting the kidneys, which govern vitality and steadiness. Breath and movement shift purpose in this season. They’re less about output and more about grounding your system.

🌬️ For breathwork: try slow, intentional belly breathing. Place a hand on your lower abdomen and let the breath expand gently into your palm.

This type of breathing helps:

Soothe the kidneys
Settle the nervous system
Ease anxiety and mental heaviness
Shift you out of shallow, upper-chest “alert mode”

🚶‍♀️ For movement, choose practices that support your energy rather than drain it:

Gentle yoga
Light stretching
Unhurried walks
Slow, intentional movement at home

In CM, over-exertion during winter can deplete the system, while gentle movement keeps circulation flowing and helps you stay warm, grounded, and steady.

❄️Small shifts like these can make winter feel more supportive, especially if you’ve been noticing the emotional intensity this season tends to bring.

🌑The Winter Solstice: the longest night of the year.

Across traditions, this day has always been a moment of stillness, deep reflection, and an acknowledgment of everything that lives below the surface.

Winter invites us to slow down long enough to hear what’s been waiting beneath the noise. To notice what’s shifting, what needs to be released, and what wants to rest before the light returns.
Tonight is a night for quiet rituals: gentle movement, acknowledgment, and reflection. A night for stillness and introspection.

If you’re marking the Solstice at home, here are a few simple ways to honor the night:

Simple ways to honor this night:
🕯️Sit in candlelight as the sun sets
✍🏻Journal about what’s ending or shifting in your life
📔Read a poem that honors darkness or transition
🎵Listen to songs that evoke the deeper - and maybe even the sadder - parts of yourself
✋🏽Place your hands on your heart and breathe intentionally
🧘🏽Sit in stillness for a few minutes without interruption
🌊Let the tears fall if they come

And if you’re local and want to lean into the darkness and tune into the symbolism held during a time like this, you’re welcome to join us this evening at The Center for HAS. Call 713-597-8047 to reserve your spot.

🕯️The winter solstice has always carried a certain kind of wisdom.

For many, this time carries a quiet richness…an invitation to turn inward, feel what’s been waiting beneath the surface, and let the deeper layers of the self breathe.

But this season brings something else, too.

December is Seasonal Depression Awareness Month, and for many, the decrease in daylight creates real emotional changes. Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) can show up as low mood, irritability, oversleeping, changes in appetite, or a loss of interest in things that usually feel nourishing. These patterns often begin in late fall and lift again in spring.

At The Center, our work during this time of year has never been about pulling someone out of their suffering or making the darkness disappear. We believe in something different.

🤝Walking with you through it, helping you make meaning from what rises to the surface, and finding steadiness in the places that feel heavy. There is value in this season, and support can make it feel less isolating.

❄️If you feel drawn to mark this season in community, we’re gathering in the evening on December 21 for our Winter Solstice event. A quiet space to reflect, reconnect, and honor the longest night of the year.

🎁The holidays can bring a lot of pressure to find the “right” gift, but the most meaningful ones are often the simplest.

Something someone will actually use.
Something that supports how they want to feel in the months ahead.

Clients have been creating their own wellness bundles at The Center, choosing small pieces that turn every day care into an intentional moment.

And for anyone who would benefit from deeper support, our gift cards have been a favorite. They can be used toward any of our 1:1 services, including acupuncture, massage, bodywork, and integrative healing sessions.

If you’re gifting with intention this season, we can help you curate something personal.

🎄Come by the front desk or give us a call at 713-497-1951 if you’d like help putting together a bundle that truly fits the person you have in mind.
