Being Barefoot: The Miraculous Healing Effect of the Earth

Holistic Health Discussion Group

Wednesday, March 21st - 6 to 7pm FREE

Teton Healing Arts
25 S. Gros Ventre St.

Click to view an introductory video by Dr. Sinatra as he discusses "grounding," or "Earthing," the direct and indirect means of improving health by absorbing the earth's natural, electromagnetic energy.

The earth has miraculous healing benefits. When we are connected to the earth our body is suffused with free electrons which are abundantly present on the surface of the Earth and carry a negative charge. We immediately equalize to the same energy level as the Earth and receive these much needed free electrons which scavenges our body for free radicals (positively charged particles) and in addition, protects us from Electro-Magnetic Radiation. It is the free radical that begins the cascade of dysfunction which in turn creates inflammation. Inflammation is the silent killer which is at the heart of the majority of disease and illness."

Connecting to the earth:
• defuses the cause of inflammation, and improves or eliminates the symptoms of many inflammation-related disorders.
• reduces or eliminates chronic pain.
• improves sleep in most cases.
• increases energy.
• lowers stress and promotes calmness in the body by cooling down the nervous system and stress hormones.
• normalizes the body's biological rhythms.
• thins the blood and improves blood pressure and flow.
• relieves muscle tention and headaches.
• lessens hormonal and menstrual symptoms.
• dramatically speeds healing and helps prevent bedsores.
• reduces or eliminates jet lag.
• protects the body against potentially health-disturbing environmental electromagnetic fields (EMFs).
• accelerates recovery from intense athletic activity.

Here are some of the illnesses and conditions that have been linked to chronic inflammation:

• Allergies
• Alzheimer's disease
• Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
• Anemia
• Arthritis
• Asthma
• Atherosclerosis
• Autism
• Cancer
• Diabetes, type 1 & 2
• Fibromyalgia
• Heart disease
• Intestinal disorders
• Kidney failure
• Lupus
• Multiple sclerosis (MS)
• Chronic pain
• Pancreatitis
• Psoriasis and eczema

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.

Join Us for a Grounding Party!

Grounding Party

Wednesday, February 29th - 6 to 8pm FREE

Teton Healing Arts
25 S. Gros Ventre St.

For millions of years we have evolved in the healing presence of the earth. The earth releases a constant stream of electrons, which act like antioxidants in our body and protect us from free radicals. Grounding the body naturally eliminates inflammation, pain and stress. It’s simple and it’s free. All you have to do is place your bare feet directly on the earth. Living in Jackson grounding is difficult to achieve. Our modern lifestyle has increasingly disconnected us from this vital energy.

Dr. Peter Blumenauer will discuss "Sickness from Modern Living: Cellphones, insomnia, and EMR" as well a short presentation on Earthing - “grounding” your body to naturally discharge inflammation, pain and stress.

Sue Gronberg will also give a presentation on Gia Wellness - inspiring wellness products.

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. We (of course) will be taking a holistic approach to solving this issue. We will also present technology that directly answers how to ground yourself in everyday modern life in Jackson.

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.

Creating More Love in Your Relationships

Holistic Health Discussion Group

Wednesday, February 15th - 6 pm FREE

Teton Healing Arts
25 S. Gros Ventre St.

Holistic Life-Coach, Christie Watts leads a discussion in creating strong, bonded, respectful relationships. This applies to all relationships including the romantic.

This sounds so easy… More love; We all want this. Sometimes we forget the simple things in life, and there is no greater ‘simple pleasure’ than love.

In this Holistic Health Discussion we will explore several techniques to help strengthen our relationship bonds. These methods will focus on respect, and expectations (both real and unspoken). It is often said, ‘Love them for who they are, not who you want them to be.’ This belief will be the foundation of the discussion. We are not looking to change the other person in the relationship. The aspiration is to enhance our own reactions and responses to benefit how we engage with others. This in turn works to our benefit as others begin to see and feel a difference in our interactions. A heart felt connection is achieved.

Improving Digestion Part 2 - From the small intestines to elimination.

Holistic Health Discussion Group

Wednesday, February 1st - 6 pm FREE

Teton Healing Arts
25 S. Gros Ventre St.

Darin Rodriguez, holistic nutrition therapist, leads a discussion on ways to improve digestion naturally.

Nutrition therapy is centered around reestablishing a conscious connection not only with what we eat, but with how we eat. Nutrition therapy utilizes dietary and lifestyle changes to relieve overburdened organs and systems. It then applies nutrients and whole foods from as close to nature as possible to provide the building blocks needed for the body to restore health.

Food should pass through the body every eight to eighteen hours. Any food that remains in the gut for a prolonged period can spoil, ferment, form gas, and cause other disturbances that affect the rest of the body. Dr. Bernard Jensen states in his book, Dr. Jensen’s Guide to Better Bowel Care, “The first natural law [of wellness] is to feed the body natural food… When we begin to obey the natural laws again, it is almost like returning to the Garden of Eden... When consuming natural foods and following a more natural way of living, the bowel always responds.”

Last week we talked about the first half of the digestive process from the brain to the stomach. This week we will focus on the last half of digestion from the small intestines to elimination. We will review how the nervous system intimately influences digestion even in these later stages. We’ll talk about the pancreas’ role in facilitating digestion, the importance of pH in the intestinal tract, and the bacterial balancing act.

It’s about time the bowels got the attention and appreciation they deserve. Come learn about what occurs in healthy digestion from the duodenum to the rectum, how and why things go wrong, and how to support this vital system. Dietary adjustments, lifestyle changes, supplemental enzymes, probiotics, and naturally fermented foods will be presented as possible solutions.

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.

Improving Digestion Part 1 - From The Brain To The Stomach

Holistic Health Discussion Group

Wednesday, January 25th - 6 pm FREE

Teton Healing Arts
25 S. Gros Ventre St.

Darin Rodriguez, holistic nutrition therapist, shares valuable insight on ways to improve digestion naturally.

Nutrition therapy is centered around reestablishing a conscious connection not only with what we eat, but with how we eat. Nutrition therapy utilizes dietary and lifestyle changes to relieve overburdened organs and systems. It then applies nutrients and whole foods from nature to provide the building blocks needed for the body to restore health.
One of the main systems we focus on in nutrition therapy is, of course, the digestive system. Digestion plays a major role in the overall health or disease of an individual. The ability to breakdown food, absorb nutrients, and effectively eliminate waste is directly related to the function or dysfunction of all the other systems in the body.

Hippocrates stated, “All disease begins in the gut.” He believed and taught this principle because he knew that if a person was not absorbing crucial nutrients to maintain structures and replenish biochemicals, every cell, tissue, and organ would eventually be compromised. Likewise, when supporting the digestive system’s ability to function properly, food is more effectively broken down, nutrients are better absorbed and more readily available to nourish the cells that need them, and waste is eliminated more effectively. Supporting proper digestion prevents a host of potential problems in other body systems such as allergies, asthma, diabetes, arthritis, and autoimmune disorders.

This week we will be discussing part 1 of a 2 part series on improving digestion. By attending this talk you will gain a better understanding of the inter-connectedness of the nervous system and the digestive system. You will learn how enzymes and gastric juices act upon food, and how stomach acidity initiates a vital cascade of digestive events. We will address what occurs in healthy digestion from the brain to the stomach, how and why things go wrong, and how to support this vital system. Dietary adjustments, lifestyle changes, HCL and enzyme supplementation will be presented as possible solutions.

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.

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.

Breast Cancer Massage

In honor of all the women in our lives who have had breast cancer, I was going to write to our readers about how personally affected we are by this life changing disease.  Whether its you, your mother, your sister, your wife, or your friend, we are taught lessons from experiences of just how fragile life is.  As I pondered, I realized that it’s impossible to put into words, at least in a few paragraphs, how life changes because of cancer.  Instead of telling you of, unfortunately, what we will all learn, whether first hand or through others experiences, I want to focus on the hope and positive energy of healing.
