§lhat's Lit The Health & Lifestyle Section Good health - -what are the Alternatives? We're very excited about our new section. It will cover lots of fascinating subjects in the areas most of us are interested in - Health, 'Wealth and Happiness! In this issue, by popular request, we're going to look at some alternative methods for achieving well being. REIKI The word Reiki cornes from two Japanese words. Rei means spiritual force or intelligence, Ki means life energy. Reiki is given by a laying on of hands. The traditional treatment includes head, shoulders, stomach and feet and leaves you feeling quite deeply relaxed. You can also be taught to practice it yourself. By placing your hands on yourself Reiki flows into you, enabling selfL healing, and revealing insights for personal growth. Reiki is practiced and taught at Wings of Learning. The Master Practitioner there, Karen Coppolin o, says: "I want to offer people the chance to experience fresh states of being and acting in the world, .so that they can fmnd for themselves what is best for them." REFLEXOLOGy It's based on the theory that there are reflexes in the feet which correspond to every part, gland and organ of the body. The treatment relaxes the patient so that the body's natural healing can take place. This is achieved by the pressure of thumbs and fingers on certain areas of the feet. Reflexology improves circu- lation and promotes the natural functions of the body. MASSAGE THERAPY Massage Therapy is the manipulation of the body's soft tissues, such as muscles, skin, and tendons. ht helps to increase circulation and drainage, reduce muscle tension, promote proper breathing and sedate or stimulate the ner&'es. Lois and Kristina are Regis- tered Therapists who practice both of these therapies at- Br ock Therapeutics. 'Their aim is to help you understand that your body has the capacity to heal itself and how you can become part of that process. PSYCHOVISUAL THERAPY Ever hear about all that fuss in the 50's when a public relations expert secretly inserted a couple of frames into a popular movie? The frames contained messages about popcorn and cola. The thing is, when you're caught up in an interesting film, you're neyer going to notice a message that's so brief. So when you suddenly get a craving, for popcorn and cola, you don't stop to wonder why. You think you thought of it yourself! A video film has 30 individual pictures flashing at you every second. So if one of themn is different from the rest, you're not going to notice it. You will, however, see it. And although you won't be consciously aware of it, your brain will record the information as factual. Obvîously, that opens the door for a lot of abuse, and the National Association of Broad- casters in the à 6-AÀ&AÀ&.À U.S. outlawed the use of Cyteationx LÊy/ J3Wza Ceramic Angel Art SJOFF Aduit Admission price when you brinq this ad.

There wil be one hundred booths (!) at the New Age Expo, offering products and services you won't find at the Mail. Whether your mnterests be physical, mental, emotional or spiritual, there will be someone at this show to help you. If you already feel great, but you crave *seif-improvement, this show may be able to, give you sublim-inal messages on television. Each Psychovisual program is a 30 minute video containing up to 70 pages (!) of subliminal information for your self improve- ment. This is encoded into fascinating, moving colour patterns. (Full-spectrum colour makes you feel good!) Visual subliminals are considered more effective than audio ones, since, more infor- mation can be encoded into a 30 minute filin without you really noticmng it. (Except for a barely noticeable 'blip' every so often.) The messages and full instructions what you need. Many of the show's alternative practitioners, once regarded as radical, are now internationally recognized as effective natural therapists. The show's organizers recognize that people today are not always content to follow mainstream thinking.
