Clarity in Times of War

Written by Peter Robinson

What good is your knowledge if the only time you ever use it is when things are fine, and the world is in harmony?  A practice that is only effective when the world is calm is not a practice at all.  Your practice is a tool that should help you find clarity, even when the seas around you are turbulent.  It should not be something that needs crystal clear waters to work. 

As I sit here writing this, I’m in the waiting room of the Cedar Sinai outpatient surgery center.  My wife is going in to have a fibroid removed.  It’s not a dangerous operation, but she’ll still be put under with an anesthetic.  All week, people have been calling her, worried, with a nervous energy about them.  Last night, as we lay in bed, we talked, and I asked her how she was feeling. 

June Self-Healing Tips

Written by Julie Festa, L.Ac.

As we transition into June, the key players of good- health switch out. Spring starred the Liver and Gallbladder; Summer, however, sets the Heart and Small Intestine center stage. In the five elements system of Chinese medicine, we are moving from Wood into Fire. Where Wood is expansive, Fire is light, bright, creative. Fire requests us to express our joy, to travel, to work, and to help others.
