Bio:Caroline Bass is on a mission to harness the power of herbs as a natural remedy to help relieve stress and stabilize moods. After the stresses of daily life began to take their toll on her, she found herself anxious and finding it difficult to find the energy to balance a full-time job and the pressures of being a mom of three. She began formulating herbal blends to relieve her anxiety and calm her nerves. When she started sharing the remedy with her friends and family, the word spread, and they kept coming back for more. After much trial and error with many months of tweaking the dosages, the final formulation was ready: Queen Tulsi: Nature's Stress Relief. Highlights:

• Caroline's Journey Begins - Her journey in women's health began as a doula, specializing in prenatal and postpartum care. She initially used herbs to support pregnant women. Caroline gradually integrated herbs into her daily life to manage stress, anxiety, concentration, and immune support.
• Inspiration for the Company - Caroline's inspiration for her company came from her personal struggles with stress, hormonal changes, and the desire to create a better home environment for her children.
• Challenges in Transitioning to Entrepreneurship - Leaving her corporate job after 27 years was a significant challenge for Caroline. She experienced self-doubt and had to adapt to a different type of work structure. Caroline's transition to entrepreneurship made her reassess her skills and delegate tasks she was not proficient in, finding a balance between work and personal life.
• Practices developed include the Evening Abundance List. Caroline shared her practice of creating an "Evening Abundance List," where she acknowledges and appreciates the small and big accomplishments of each day
• Upcoming Podcast and Product Enhancement: We look forward to Caroline's upcoming podcast launching soon and her new advanced product, Queen Tulsi, making it even more effective for customers.

Bio: Tim Arculli -OLS Qigong and Healing. When Tim Arculli began practicing Qigong 15 years ago, he started teaching friends and family but found that they often didn't have the time to practice regularly. To make Qigong more accessible, Tim developed his own system (Outer Limits System) that focuses on the most efficient, effective, and simple techniques that can incorporate into any lifestyle. He aims to demystify this ancient practice to amplify the benefits and wisdom. Tim has trained with teachers in the US and Hong Kong and holds many certifications in Qigong and Reiki. Tim is dedicated to sharing his knowledge and helping others improve their health and energy, practice, and well-being in a fun way.

Highlights:

Passion for Sharing: Tim's passion for Qigong comes from the love of sharing with people. He wants to make ancient wisdom and practices easily digestible so that people can incorporate them into their busy modern lives.

Initial Fascination: Tim's journey with Qigong began with his first class, where he experienced deep relaxation and energization simultaneously. This curiosity sparked his interest to learn more and delve into the practice.

Sharing the Benefits: Tim started sharing Qigong practices with friends and family, and he noticed that everyone he shared with felt better afterward. However, many people struggled to practice consistently due to lack of time. Tim's drive to share Qigong helped him develop practical easily accessible practices for people's daily lives.

Focusing on Subtle Energies: Through his training, Tim learned to focus on subtle energies in the body. Relaxing and paying attention to these energies helped him develop a deep understanding of their flow and effects on overall well-being. Tim highlights the connection between the mind and energy flow. Focusing on positive thoughts and staying present in the body helps direct energy towards healing and relaxation.

Upcoming Events:

Tim facilitates and participates in various events, including a yearly retreat in the Catskills, weekly classes at a local holistic healing studio, and collaboration with organizations like We the People, which offers healing experiences for teens.

How to Contact Tim: Private sessions for energy healing and instruction online and in person. Website: www.OLShealing.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/OuterLimitsQigong Instagram: www.instagram.com/outerlimitsqigong
