If you are like most of us, what you know of Ayurveda, the ancient Indian spiritual and healing wisdom, is that some people swear by its restorative impact, it has something to do with botanicals and there are a growing number of practitioners and products that adhere to it today. Otherwise, it's pretty much a mystery.
But if you happen to pick up a copy of Acharya Shunya's new book Ayurveda Lifestyle Wisdom: A Complete Prescription to Optimize Your Health, Prevent Disease, and Live with Vitality and Joy (Sounds True, Feb. 2017), the veil of mystery will be lifted and you will absolutely understand how this is something you can do for yourself to not only obtain optimal health, but to heal many of the illness and conditions that have plagued you.
Furthermore, this narrative-based guidebook meticulously covers the how-to's of morning and evening self-care, daily contemplations, self-massage and skin care, cooking (including recipes), beauty rituals, and more.

Acharya Shunya can help us all better understand:
How the diurnal, lunar and solar rhythms impact your wellness.
How there are three subtle matter states that regulate and sustain all of our bodily functions and psychology - and when one of these is out of balance, the body begins to dysregulate, causing illness, sluggishness or mental/emotional fatigue-and what you can do to adjust this!
How waking early before sunrise can jumpstart your whole mental, physical and emotional health.
How drinking cold water and other iced beverages may be damaging your constitution.
How the Ayurvedic method for teeth cleaning using a twig actually works as well or better than modern dental care practices and products
How massaging with oils daily before bath or shower has profound health implications.
And more...

Ayurveda Lifestyle Wisdom combines beautiful and charming reminiscences of enlightened learning at the knees of a beloved master, client case histories, an easy-to grasp understand of Ayurveda's basic teachings and practical advice.
Join me for this fantastic Aging GreatFULLy show with this special guest who has a prescription for you to "Optimize Your Health, Prevent Disease, and Live with Vitality and Joy."

Featuring the work of author Filippo Voltaggio for a heartwarming journey into your soul and enlightenment that surprises come from the most unsuspecting places. Sure to help us all Age GreatFULLy...
What do Yoda, Cinderella's Fairy Godmother, James Bond's Q, and Ciccina have in common? They are all mentors. Mentors train, motivate, plant ideas, bestow gifts, etc., and they appear when the student is ready. All these mentors did exactly that, but that is where the similarities end. Of all these mentors, Ciccina is the only one who isn't a fictional character.

The Little Dog That Could is the amazingly true story of a man and the little dog, Ciccina, that came into his life as his mentor-to help him understand the world beyond his human senses and to experience life, love and healing beyond his human understanding.
Author Filippo Voltaggio, who currently hosts the highly regarded "The LIFE CHANGES Show," on BBS Radio, and is an internationally known singer, speaker and life coach, offers up his own story...how one little surprise package in fur and four legs transformed his life unexpectedly and put him on a path of self-discovery.
Ciccina and the book are both small in size and are unassuming, but they are packed with inspiring lessons, comical moments, and heart-tugging experiences that delight the reader and open up all new possibilities for expansion by the end of the adventure.

In The Little Dog That Could, Filippo brings to life the meaning of the adage, "When the student is ready, the teacher appears." Two unlikely "bedfellows" meet by serendipity on a busy street one night, and that meeting transforms both of their lives forever. Through Ciccina, Filippo comes to experience real miracles that transcend time, space and logic.
Filippo helps people grasp the power of their sixth sense as he learned it from his little mentor. He shows how we too can expand beyond our traditional perception to a world that is far greater than we perceive on a daily basis.
A great holiday read and gift that unfolds like a classic "Hallmark" story, The Little Dog That Could isn't just for dog and animal lovers. It's for anyone who desires to connect to who they truly are and to become more than they ever thought they could be. For more information, visit www.thelittledogthatcould.com

​Former "difficult person" herself comes front stage to share with all who will listen how to deal with "people like us!" Author of the book, "Lessons from a Difficult Person: How to Deal with People Like Us" shares her infinite knowledge in her mission to help others stand up for themselves and regain peace.


The funny thing is that Sarah Elliston never realized she was “a difficult person,” -- someone who harangued people until she got her way, threw snip fits and temper tantrums, talked over her bosses and pointed out what she thought were their misconceptions. In her family, where she felt bullied, the only way she knew how to get someone’s attention and approval was to voice her opinion—and loudly! Without standing her ground, how could she do what she thought was best for herself and everyone else around her. She wasn’t intentionally mean-spirited. She was just trying to do what she thought was RIGHT! Until a kind, but firm, boss woke her up! With great compassion, and strength, her boss pointed out that that her actions had consequences.

That in being “difficult,” she was not only disrupting the office camaraderie and production, but impeding her own professional advancement. That’s the beginning of Sarah’s transformation— when she started on the journey to leave behind the difficult person, and become the woman who teaches others how to deal with difficult people. Sarah “Sam” Elliston is now bringing forth her vital manual on how to awaken the challenging personality, and change both the relationship and the environment with her new book Dealing with Difficult People; Lessons Learned from a Difficult Person. Today, Elliston is a highly successful workshop leader and trainer, who offers wisdom learned the hard way—and through rigorous study and certification in many areas of professional training that aid her in her work -- Values Realization, Parent Effectiveness Training and Reality Therapy.

An Aging GreatFULLy first, welcoming author Kent Heckenlively's Inoculated: How Science Lost Its Soul in Autism. This is a topic of interest to many, in a book that may initially read like a spy novel but unfolds to a complete accounting of all the actions and documents that comprise a government cover-up, putting a vast number of the nation's children at great risk to trigger autism once inoculated with the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine.

Heckenlively, a science teacher and attorney, uses both of these exacting skills to demonstrate how the Centers for Disease Control's deliberate choice to inaccurately report http://files.constantcontact.com/74d278c8001/69c23132-5542-4e0e-93a3-5033ec6b600a.jpg" align="right" class="CToWUd a6T"/>test results that showed a distinct correlation between the vaccine and increased autism statistics --and a lack of courage by those who could have spoken up in the early 2000s when indicators began to surface, but instead stayed silent or deliberately perverted the truth, have resulted in an entire generation of autism-disabled children-and a fast-rising tide of more.

Beginning with whistle blower Dr. William Thompson, a CDC scientist with the National Center for Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities, revealing the manipulated and falsified results to Dr. Brian Hooker, a college biology professor, scientist and autism-activist with an autistic son, Heckenlively traces how the red flags arising in the true results should have spurred international concern, and considerably more vital science to spotlight what was really happening. Instead, the government administrators, so deeply committed to the idea that vaccines are the only path to keeping the world's people saved from harm--and Big Pharma--went into overdrive to bury the information and stem any further research. Heckenlively, furthermore, shows how bad science only compounded the problem, reinforcing the government's position that no connection existed. His premise is that the scientists who should have been following the facts to the truth, instead lost their way because of the fear of rocking the boat and opening the Pandora's box that vaccine-triggered autism would unleash.

Before you're done reading this exhaustively-researched book, you'll get to know many of the parties engaged in the public battle for children's survival (including Andy Wakefield, the controversial filmmaker and researcher behind the film VAXXED, which covers some of the same ground), the science behind it, the politics that permeate it, and the step-by-step actions that have forestalled real scientific study that could reveal a new path and better protections.

Heckenlively, the father of a child stricken with autism after being vaccinated-who remains unable to speak-is no stranger to controversy. Tune in for this interview on this controversial yet important topic of interest to everyone!
