Just a reminder to keep an eye out for scammers & phishing.

I received an email from someone who claims to be a CPA. They are a licensed profession This person did not include their license number, nor can I verify they are licensed in the USA or GA. It would be an easy way to get your personal information. Verify they are licensed before giving your info away.

If you ever want to verify that an individual is licensed in the state of GA, you can do that here:

BAYLOR UNIVERSITY PUBLISHES LARGEST STUDY EVER ON MASSAGE THERAPY USE

July 2024

"Many people receive massage therapy and for many reasons. But according to a new study – the largest and most comprehensive ever conducted on the subject – the prevalence of visits to massage therapists is higher than one might have imagined and the reasons may be surprising."

“What our study shows is that it’s probably not helpful any longer to label massage as an ‘alternative’ therapy, with all of the marginality that the term conveys.”

“Licensed massage therapists ought to be respected as mainstream practitioners, whose profession provides a therapeutic approach not just to address pain and functional challenges but to foster wellness and overall well-being, physical and emotional.

Everyone can benefit from working with a skilled massage therapist. They’re the hidden gems in the healthcare system.” - Jeff Levin, Ph.D., M.P.H., University Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health. (Robert Rogers/Baylor University)

My favorite essential oil company!

Finally passed Quantum Physics and Health! This was a tough one. Took me a few tries to pass the mid-term and final exams. Even though this one is behind me, I will still read the book, the research articles and materials again. This puts me at 62% complete for my Bachelors with 6 more classes to go. Next up Biofeedback. Now let the weekend begin!

Finished with another course! This one was lecture intensive and did not have a 300+ page book with it! I'm a bit of a slow reader. This course gave me an intro into the discoveries of Dr RG Hamer and the biological laws and shock-conflicts, Dr C Sabbah's total biology, the phases of diseases, a little insight into Quantum Biofeedback, and how EFT can be a powerful tool. I'm going to take the time to read my notes on this one. There was so much more information than I can mention here.

My favorite company for shampoo & conditioning bars is Shi's Supplies. I have been using them for about 1 year now, and I love them. My curls loves them. I also use their 'Restore Face Serum'.

My favorite company for essential oils is Simply Earth. They offer a monthly subscription with oils, supplies and recipe cards to help you learn and so you can make your own products. I love this idea!
