One of the results we see with acupuncture is its ability in reducing stress. In reducing stress your body will automatically have a major increase in your immune system’s ability to fight off infection. It also creates a strong line of defense against any pathogens you may come across. ... Acupuncture is able to increase your body’s immune cells, such as the red blood cells, white blood cells, and T- cells. It also strengthens the immunity of those with auto-immune diseases by telling these cells to multiply and increase the body’s defenses. Your cells will be able to communicate better with one another and therefore increase the abilities of your immune system. . . . . . #boostimmunesystem #acupuncture #strong #readyforanything

Its cold outside (for LA standards!) so get yourself a cup of hot #herbaltea, sit, take a #breath and think about 3 things you are grateful for. Tea rituals can be a great way to create stillness in your #mind and #soul while also a fantastic way to #hydrate

In Chinese medicine people who suffer from an insatiable hunger we will see that their tongues are bright red and may even have ulcers on them and their pulse will be rapid. This is excess yang (excess heat or in some cases even fire) in the body What’s happen inside their body is that all this heat is burning up all the #food in their stomach as they eat it leaving them without nutrients and always hungry. We need to #balance the Yin allowing more fluids in the body to balance the patient out and allow for health

So most of you might know that I am obsessing over @iceman_hof, I do his breath work (most days) I am doing more cold showers (today is 11 days in a row....getting soooo much easier ) AND I jump into the ocean once/week! Being a #ChineseMedicine practitioner we mostly do not like the cold for a number of reasons and especially it can cause women more harm with their menstrual cycles and other issues. But reading a couple of #books on Wim or by him have really changed m...y mind... He says that doing his breath work and taking cold showers for just 10 days is long enough to start seeing massive differences. Just start slow if you have to, get in your warm shower do the #breath work and then turn it to cold the last 30 sec, the the week after do it for 1 min and so on. AND I do believe he is right...I have more #energy, and even if I am not sleeping great due to 2 #babies I still have more energy, my skin is glowing, I feel stronger and not just physically, this was a huge deal for me mentally because I really HATE the cold SO???? Who's in? message us, DM us, email us, tag us in your stories and let us know the difference you feel with this breath work and cold immersion! #maythecoldbewithyou See more

Calories in versus calories out... Does not stand true anymore. Why is a calorie not a calorie?... If you eat 160 cal worth of almonds, because it’s high in fiber your liver will process it and your blood sugar will rise slowly and over a long period of time. If you drink 160 cal of Coca-Cola there is no fiber so it gets absorbed straight away, the liver gets overloaded from a spike in blood sugar levels and so the liver has no choice but to turn that into fat. #Fiber is the key ingredient in food, because it does not get absorbed immediately, it allows for a low glycemic index! It's true with fruit too, whole #organic fruit - low glycemic index. Fruit juice (even freshly squeezed) same as drinking #Coca-cola

Want to look younger??? Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is the hottest trend on the market at achieving just that! In a recent study at the Tel Aviv University it showed that, "As people age, the protective caps at the ends of chromosomes called telomeres shorten, causing DNA to become damaged and cells to stop replicating. At the same time, "zombie" senescent cells build up in the body, preventing regeneration."... "...giving pure oxygen to people while in a hyperbaric chamber increased the length of their telomeres by 20%, a feat that has NEVER been achieved before." ALSO... "The significant improvement of telomere length shown during and after these unique protocols provides the scientific community with a new foundation of understanding that aging can indeed be targeted and reversed at the basic cellular-biological level." BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE.... "Previous trials have shown that eating a healthy diet can preserve telomere length, while high-intensity training for six months has been proven to lengthen telomeres by up to 5%." But just sitting, relaxing and breathing #oxygen lengthens the telomeres by a whopping 20%. "The Israeli team has also previously demonstrated that the pressurized oxygen therapy can improve cognitive decline. However, what is remarkable to note in our study is that, in just three months of therapy, we were able to achieve such significant telomere elongation at rates far beyond any of the current available interventions or #lifestyle modifications."

Welcome Bodie Michael Buckle to this crazy little world. He was 13 days late and was finally born Saturday morning at 8:45 after almost 13hrs of labor. Everyone who told me second births were quicker and easier was lying. We had another successful #homebirth only thanks to the 2 most amazing midwifes @thevitalwoman and @catalina.clark who did not let me give up...and trust me this time I really wanted to @mikebuckledc did a pretty good job this time too, he knew better wha...t to say but more importantly what NOT to say Bodie was born 9lbs 14oz. 22 long, with a head circumference of 15 which of course got stuck - there will be no more buckle babies coming into this world for a number of reasons, one of them being their head circumference . We are all in recovery and sleeping as much as we can. See you all soon! @ Marina del Rey, California
