Holistic Health Discussion Group
Wednesday, March 14th - 6 to 7pm FREE
Teton Healing Arts
25 S. Gros Ventre St.

Life today is busy! We push ourselves more then any time in the history of the planet. Often our idea of resting and relaxing is watching TV and using the internet at the same time. Multi-tasking has taken on a whole new meaning. Stillness, peace and tranquility are things that we long for but often what we don't have time for.

Techniques to ground yourself in the busy world we live in.
• Stop and do nothing.
• Sit in a park, in the forest, at the beach and just be still.
• Meditation/yoga/massage
• Baths
• Go for a walk in nature.
• Eat food that is grounding. This means warm and moist. Stay away from cold, dry, light food.

During the month of March join us at Teton Healing Arts, 25 S. Gros Ventre, Jackson, Wyoming every Wednesday night from 6-7pm and find out how to utilize grounding and connect to the earth’s energy.

The Unknown Secrets of Weight Loss


Holistic Health Discussion Group
Wednesday, February 22nd - 6 pm FREE
Teton Healing Arts
25 S. Gros Ventre St.

Did you know that more than 97 million people in the United States are overweight, this is one in five adults. Americans spend more than $100 billion dollars a year fighting weight loss and obesity.

This epidemic of weight gain seems to accompany an endless wave of miracle diets, where 99 percent of people who go on diets, regain every pound they have lost within 3-5 years.

Ayurveda offers a traditional system of medicine based on living a balanced life in harmony with the changing cycles of nature. There are three factors that rule how healthy your diet is: What, when and how we eat.

We, as a society, put most the emphasis on WHAT we eat, with very little attention to how or when we eat. We count our calories, reduce fats, increase proteins and cut carbs. We have tried every possible weight loss plan with little or no success.

Jennifer Hitch, Ayurvedic Health Practitioner, will introduce simple ideas and empower you to make healthy decisions. Join us this Wednesday at 6:00pm for my Holistic Health Discussion at Teton Healing Arts.

Achieving Balance through Ayurveda


Holistic Health Discussion Group
Wednesday, January 18th - 6 pm FREE
Teton Healing Arts
25 S. Gros Ventre St.






Ayurvedic Health Practitioner-Jennifer Hitch leads a discussion about Achieving Balance through Ayurveda.

Ayurveda is considered by many scholars to be the oldest healing science. Ayurveda literally translates into "Science of life", this knowledge originated in India more than 5000 years ago, it is often called the "Mother of all healing."

This has been practiced for thousands of years by millions of individuals to assist the body in journeying back to optimal health. More and more people are discovering that these ancient principles are easily applicable to modern life and that they have the power to create health and contentment.

Dr. Deepak Chopra states, recognizing that human beings are part of nature, Ayurveda describes three fundamental energies that govern our inner and outer environments: movement, transformation, and structure. Known in Sanskrit as Vata (Wind), Pitta (Fire), and Kapha (Earth), these primary forces are responsible for the characteristics of our mind and body. Each of us has a unique proportion of these three forces that shapes our nature. If Vata is dominant in our system, we tend to be thin, light, enthusiastic, energetic, and changeable. If Pitta predominates in our nature, we tend to be intense, intelligent, and goal-oriented and we have a strong appetite for life. When Kapha prevails, we tend to be easy-going, methodical, and nurturing. Although each of us has all three forces, most people have one or two elements that predominate.

Rather than treating the symptoms of disease directly, Ayurvedic treatment aims to rebalance your doshas according to your innate constitution, resulting in a body and mind that is healthy and sound. By becoming familiar with your own unique dosha pattern you can lead a life that is more in harmony with your individual nature.

Health comes when we live in harmony with our true nature as spirit. Ayurveda allows us to get a glimpse of our individual true nature and to find the best ways to live a life of balance. It provides holistic understanding and healing to people on all levels: physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Ayurveda uses a multitude of healing modalities including herbs, diet, colors, aromas, sound, lifestyle recommendations, pancha karmai, meditation, and yoga.

Come find out how the achieve balance through Ayurveda! Take the Dosha Quiz to get started on your path to health!

Don't Let Pain Hold You Back

Holistic Health Discussion Group
Wednesday, January 4th - 6 pm 
Teton Healing Arts
25 S. Gros Ventre St.

Dr. Peter Blumenauer leads a discussion about chronic neck and back pain including new information that will help return renewed vitality and function to your life.

Any kind of pain can be difficult to deal with and chronic pain is something completely different.  The day in day out pain cycle does not only limit our activities, it starts to play with our minds and can change us into a more desperate irritable and insecure version of our former selves.  Back pain, lower back pain and neck pain is a serious problem for many people and may be the most difficult to deal with of all pain patterns.

According to the World Health Organization it’s one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders to effect mankind.  80% of all persons will have it in their lifetime and up to 33% of the population has it right now.   They may go through a period of dormancy only to have it activated again, seemingly out of the blue.  The latest research shows us some of the best ways to understand our bodies and so begin to know how to heal and transform these complex challenges.  New findings like fbro/fatty infiltration of postural muscles, (Spine) aberrant firing and coordination of neuro-motor postural loops (JMPT) and the disuse atrophy that ensues from chronic pain cycles all help to create a pattern that most will never escape.

You no longer have to be one of those people.  Come join us and learn how to begin to incorporate this new information into your lives so you can return to life with renewed vitality and function.  Holistic Health Discussion Groups are scheduled every Wednesday evening at Teton Healing Arts, and will cover a wide range of topics that affect people throughout our community.  Holistic Health Discussion Groups are free and open to the public.  Please contact Teton Healing Arts at 307-734-0222 for more information.
