  • Have you heard Cindy share some of her first-hand healing miracles and want to hear more? Cindy has witnessed hundreds of them since she had her own first experience with holistic and herbal healing in her teens.
  • Do you enjoy listening to storytelling about nature's bounty and the restoration of vibrant health after a serious health condition, illness or tragedy? 
  • Thinking about sharing a story of your own discovery of the healing power of herbs and foods?

These stories will delight and enliven you! 

​All of the stories will be first hand experiences of participating in some way within the process of healing, whether patient, client, parent,  healer or educator. Cindy will begin each night with one or more of her  own healing miracles, and then there will be time for others' first person healing stories, too. If you have a story to share, please write a brief summary of your own story, (300 words or less), and maybe you'll get to share with the group, too! 

There will be social time after the shares conclude. Feel free to bring a snack or beverage to share that contains NO ADDED SUGAR OF ANY KIND with the group during social time, and please don't feel obligated.
Adults: $15 each
Or attend with a friend: 2 for $25 (all additional friends in your group: $12.50)

  • Wouldn't it be fun to bring the kids into nature and set up your own little science projects to inspire learning and healthy life practices?

Wherever we go, there is an abundance of healing plants all around us. Join us as we explore local natural areas and find twenty-five or more local plants with nutritional and medicinal properties to support you and your family's body-mind-emotional health and wellbeing. Don't worry; we won't go very far, yet we'll discover how plentiful health-providing plants can be! Find out how you can nourish and restore the heart, digestion, mood, brain, hormones, bones, skin and so much more. Find natural relief for allergies, rashes, exhaustion, poor sleep, low energy, cuts, scrapes, and all sorts of common complaints.

I will supply a handout. Please bring water, a sunhat, and appropriate attire for the ever changing New England weather. We will meet unless it's downpouring and/or lightning. You're welcome to use your camera. No video or audio recording without prior permission.

Nature Spirits Energy Healing
A Body-Mind-Emotions-Spirit Self-Healing Experience

​from 12:00 - 2:15 PM

Release yourself to the magic, freedom and wonders of Nature!
Also referred to as forest bathing, you'll rejuvenate your soul-self! No swimsuit necessary--this is a dry nature experience!

We will take a gentle stroll into nature for a couple short hours, blending mindfulness with creating a deep connection with Earth Mother and her bountiful gifts. You'll experience numerous health benefits for your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health and wellbeing. In this short amount of time, we'll really slow down to feel the ground beneath our feet, and use our senses to tune out all the hectic city and suburban life as we tune in to the sounds, sights, aromas, tastes, textures and feel of the healing benefits of nature that is all around us.


The practice of natural immersion known in Japan as forest bathing began in the 1980's. Research indicates that many health benefits can be gleaned from even short nature explorations, including:
  • reducing excess stress,
  • lifting the mood and spirits,
  • boosting immunity,
  • lowering blood pressure, just to name a few.
Join us to experience the great outdoors in a whole new way, and really feel the comfort, rejuvenation and deep relaxation that this experiential journey into nature provides.

Did you hear the latest about vitamin D, calcium supplements and bone health? Some very large observational studies show that using milk or most calcium and vitamin D supplements does not improve the bone health of menopausal women!

​
But if you're like most Americans, you’ve probably been told by your doctor, friends, nutritionist, and the media that if you want to prevent osteoporosis and fractures, just drink lots of milk and take calcium supplements. Yet most dairy (and soymilk) products, and nearly ALL calcium supplements can actually contribute to worsening your bone health and increasing fractures. That’s right! Several reliable long-term studies have shown that taking most calcium supplements, or drinking two or more glasses of milk daily, can actually aggravate and worsen osteoporosis, fractures and joint pain.

So, what can you do if you want to experience healthy bones throughout life and into your elder years? 
The reality is that everyone can enjoy healthy, strong bones that last a lifetime. Yet many of us don’t for a variety of reasons, including digestive problems, endocrine imbalances, and a diet lacking in the right foods. Even if you have been diagnosed with osteoporosis or osteopenia, you can turn it around and restore good bone health by making the right choices, starting now.

Please join us for this fascinating talk about why the information we hear from the media and many health experts is not working and why. Hear how to use foods, herbs and supplements to restore weakened bones and prevent thinning, fragile bones now and in the future.

Get real answers and dispel misleading myths about optimal bone health, strength and flexibility, beginning today!

Natural Approaches to Autism, ADHD, and Other Neurological Conditions
for Children and Adults
Tuesday, November 21, 2017 from 7:00 to 8:15 PM

Every parent wants the best for their child, but some parents with children affected by autism, ADHD, and a variety of other neurological conditions have become resigned to these conditions as permanent. What they may not know is that there is great hope for full healing or great improvement and reduction of symptoms attainable through some simple natural strategies that can be easily implemented.

Certainly every child (and adult) is unique, with his or her very own set of challenges, abilities, afflictions, sensitivities, symptoms and coping strategies. Unique, too, is an individual's optimal plan for their healing; what I provide is not a single plan that works for everyone and with every diagnosis. That doesn't exist. That said, there are certain foods, herbal remedies and lifestyle support strategies that seem to help each and every child and adult on the autism spectrum, with Attention Deficit Disorder, ADHD, OCD, bi-polar, or the various other brain-nerve conditions that I have worked with and supported with powerful healing support.

Most of the families I've worked with, including my own, are barely able to make it through the day, and might see taking on new healing practices as burdensome or undoable. Yet these approaches to healing the brain, nerves, digestion, adrenals, and other body systems fit neatly into busy family life and are not cumbersome at all. And when you begin witnessing the sometimes spectacular, sometimes more subtle changes in your child's condition, their comfort, happiness, ease, connection, communication, and abilities, life will occur much easier than it's ever been, and it happens within just a few weeks!

Virtually all children with brain and nerve conditions, diagnosed or not, can heal to some great extent, and with help, using an integrated approach including a wholesome diet and a nurturing lifestyle, I've seen what could only be described as miracles in hundreds of children. As Montana Burr, a fourteen year old who is healing himself from autism, says on his website, "Just keep in mind that recovery is a marathon, not a sprint."

Please join us to see how you can create a healing plan for the people in your life who may experience autism, ADD, OCD, bipolar, or the myriad of other brain and nerve conditions that so many children and young adults contend with in our hectic, toxin laden, modern day society.

It's that time of year again when short daylight, work, school, holidays, and family dynamics begin to burden our physical, mental and emotional health. But, this year, you can have a whole new experience!

Stress is a normal part of life and can even be motivational, but too much of it can take a toll on us, both physically and emotionally. Loss of sleep, feelings of angst, mental overload, irritability, the blues, lowered energy, and immune weakness often are immediate results. Over time, chronic stress can lead to diminished health, chronic pain, and disease.

Most of us know that fish oil is great for the nervous system and brain. But did you know that one tablespoon of hemp seeds provides you with as much omega-3 fatty acids as two to three fish oil capsules? And they’re delicious to boot!

​This is one of the many amazing tips that I’ll share with you as you learn how to reduce stress, irritability, anxiousness, and sleeplessness through the power of good healing foods. In this hands-on class, we’ll also learn how to put together meals to support your nervous system so you can feel great all through the winter months.


​Please register by Tuesday, October 17th, so I'll have enough of everything!

For decades, Cindy has provided Healing Meals Cooking Workshops for groups throughout the Northeast.
