Rosen Method Bodywork- GMG Health And Fitness Week

Find Help for Chronic Pain with Rosen Method Bodywork in Glorious Gloucester.

When we are born our breath moves our whole body.  When we have feelings that are too much for ourselves or our environment to bear we stop those feelings by tightening a muscle, and any time we tighten any muscle it tightens our diaphragm and affects our breathing.  In Rosen Work,  listening hands mirror and support tension in the body so you can begin to notice the holding in muscles and breath that may have become so habitual you no longer feel it. Often images, memories and feelings begin to surface. Through this kind of attention in an atmosphere of relaxation, spaciousness and compassion, your body has the opportunity to find its own answers, new pathways that often can not come from the logical mind.  With this new pathway comes a sense of freedom that can profoundly impact the way you feel in your body and your life, creating positive, permanent change. Rosen is great for anyone who wants to find their source of vitality and creativity and connect more deeply with their authentic self or who just wants to find relief from chronic physical pain.

ATLANTIC ACUPUNCTURE WELLNESS- GMG Health and Fitness Week

From Gloucester Acupuncturist Eli Jacobe, Lic.Ac.;  www.AtlanticAcupuncture.com

Tapping with your own fingers on acupuncture meridian points to relieve stressed emotions is a modern discovery in acu-pressure by psychologist Dr. Roger Callahan (www.RogerCallahan.com). The idea is to gently move stressed thought and emotional patterns out of the nervous system.  It’s like taking a plunger to a stuck sink or toilet.  Once you restore the flow, all the gunk drains away. It’s not amnesia.  You still know what happened, but the memories just don’t destroy you anymore. At first it sounds unbelievable.  But orphanages in Rwanda are teaching this skill to kids who lost their families in the tribal genocide.  It can make a difference even with a situation like that:

This spring  at The Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce Expo, I taught a set of tapping points that reduces anxiety, phobias, bad moods, post-traumatic emotions and other accumulated stress levels. This method actually gets those conditions out of  your brain; in contrast to other treatments that just talk about what’s wrong or that sedate the nervous system with medications the same way a dentist numbs a toothache (which is OK until the novocain wears off).

Watch and follow along on YouTube

This sequence can help 80% or more of the people who use it. (To get a chart that shows all the spots,   http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20668754/EFT%201%20page%20with%20contact%20info.pdf )  Even higher rates of relief come with personal assessment  to determine other point sequences needed for individual situations. Like twirling a combination lock, the order in which you clear the circuits can make a difference.  Telephone 978-525-2255.  For military veterans suffering from combat stress or PTSD, sessions are on a sliding scale that includes free.  Download Dr. Callahan’s 300 page book on overcoming trauma: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20668754/Stop%20The%20Nightmares%20of%20Trauma%20book.pdf

I can teach this to groups.  I invite veteran’s organizations and stress/trauma support groups to contact me.  Acupuncture (with the needles) is now used at Walter Reed Hospital and even by combat medics in the field.  I think it won’t be long before this method of acupuncture without needles is used there, too.

Sandy and Steve hail from New Brunswick,  although Sandy grew up in Gloucester. They visit here frequently and certainly seemed to enjoy the the sun, ice cream, and view of the outer harbor on a perfect summer day.

Caroline Stella – Guest Artist at Khan Studio and the Good Morning Gloucester Gallery

Caroline Stella, a retired teacher who lives on the North Shore, has turned her lifetime hobby into a passion. Her photographic interests are varied, but her travel experiences dominate her work.

Her work is on display throughout the North Shore: Lynn Arts Gallery, Grosvenor Park Gallery in Swampscott, Union Hospital in Lynn, at Sisters We Three in Newburyport, and now at Khan Studio and the Good Morning Gloucester Gallery on Rocky Neck in Gloucester.

Images by Caroline have also adorned the walls at Café Paolina in Swampscott, Mario’s Bar and Grille in Everett, and presently at J. Pace and Son in Saugus.

Did You Know? (Islandia off Wonson’s Cove)

Photo by E.J. Lefavour

That the “Islandia” superyacht, designed in Holland by Tony Castro and Peter Sijm, has an overall length of 41.60 meters (136’) by 7.88 meters (just under 26’) in width, and was made using steel for the quickwork and aluminum for the upper works?  Her design prescribes the presence of a bulbous keel with a composite sailing boat that has made it possible to reduce the draft to only 3.5 meters. All the interiors are in mahogany wood, matched with beige color upholstery and furnishings. The large living room, at the center of the boat, extremely bright thanks to the numerous glass surfaces, offers a spacious area with TV and dining table able to accommodate 10 persons. Astern of this room are the three guest staterooms, each with its own bathroom, and the boat owner’s stateroom. This latter stateroom is a true suite, with two large twin beds and a smaller bed, a lounge with an L-shaped sofa, a desk and a wardrobe, and is provided with a bathroom with a separate shower compartment. At the bow of the living room there is a large on-board galley, almost professionally equipped, the crew dining area and their cabins, each with separate shower and bathroom. From this area the crew gains direct access to the deck, to the engine room and to the technical area where all the systems for the correct operation and maintenance of the boat are situated. This allows for a maximum level of privacy.  (Nautica)

Cool little boat to tool around in, wouldn’t you agree?

Did You Know? (Charlie McCarthy)

that Charlie McCarthy represented Good Morning Gloucester at Madfish Wharf on Rocky Neck?  Edgar Bergen was unavailable.  Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy made their debut on “Royal Gelatin Hour” in 1936 and were an instant success. Soon after they were given their own show for Chase & Sanborn.  Almost immediately, The Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy Show became one of the most popular programs.  Charlie looks a little worse for the wear, and he’s so old now he has to be pushed around in a pram.  You never know who you’ll see on Rocky Neck.
