A holiday revisit to the show Education and Service, Responsibility in the Practice is a reminder that EVERYTHING we do, say, feel, and think affects EVERYTHING and EVERYONE else. The holidays are an excellent time to practice being present…challenging…yet enormously informative in how we handle stress. Let’s do this!

Sunday December 7th, 2014. 6 pm Pacific Time  (347) 677-0699 

Join Sifu Restita and Sifu Robert as they ponder the question "Just what IS a Master, anyway?"

What is a Master? Not just in Martial Arts, but rather, in life? Does someone have to be a Mr. Miyagi figure to be considered a "Master"? We know that "Master" rank involves decades of practice, but even though someone is a Grandmaster in rank, do they carry over into having mastery over themselves?  There is so much bickering in our martial arts community lately....rather than bicker, couldn't Masters just control their perceptions and responses to life and difficult people? Is it one's ego responding to others, or are they reacting to actual insults? Do they respond in confidence, in anger, or chooseto not respond at all? Are we all doing our best to master ourselves?.....because we are all faces of martial artists to the non-martial arts world.

Call us at (347) 677-0699 at approximately 6:30 pm Pacific time (after our news and announcements segment), and join the conversation! We'd love to hear from YOU, the listeners!

(Special thanks to Kumu Lua Michelle Manu for the the topic suggestion).

Yes!  Tune in, observe, learn, and respond to your mental/emotional self because being present with your feelings is valuable.  Recognizing and analyzing what your emotions, coupled with knowing what you FEEL, can help you make better decisions and contribute to maturing in this lifetime.

Leo T. Fong

 Leo T. Fong was born on November 23rd, 1928. He is one of the most respected martial artists in the community today. Leo was born in Canton, China. When he was five years old, his family emigrated to the United States. At the age of 15, Leo began training as an amateur boxer and was also called to be an ordained Methodist Minister. In 1958, Leo was introduced to Kung Fu, studying Choy Li Fut and Sil Lim.

In the spirit of gratitude let’s revisit using reflection and humor in our practice.  Part of realizing how far we have come in our lives comes from looking at the path we have woven. Reflection coupled with laughter, a proven healer, we will only gain and continue to progress by practicing these regularly.

Reiki for Alzheimer’s, Depression, Anxiety, Caregiver Stress, Pain

Scientific validation of the effectiveness of Reiki has helped bring this method more and more to the mainstream, where it is able to aid patients in many realms. There are several vital areas where Reiki and other touch/energy therapies significantly aid people with dementia and their caregivers.  The first is that there is an indication from published, peer-reviewed research that Reiki can help address memory issues in people with mild cognitive impairment and mild Alzheimer’s.

There are also several other published studies that demonstrate that Reiki helps both depression and anxiety both among people with chronic medical issues, as well as in those do not.  One of the often reported outcomes of Reiki treatment is a state of calm relaxation.  In that dementia patients can have problems with agitation, Reiki’s calming influence can be greatly appreciated.

Dementia patients often have other significant medical issues that might cause them to experience chronic or episodic pain. Using narcotic medication in people with cognitive impairment can make that impairment worse, so finding effective non-narcotic interventions that reduce pain can be vital.  Several research studies studies show that pain can be significantly reduced through the use of Reiki, both in cases where the pain is chronic and short-term.

Caregiver stress and burn out is another vital area where Reiki can help.  Nurses have added Reiki to their work in large numbers, and studying then as a population prone to burn out and compassion fatigue has demonstrated that Reiki can help prevent and heal caregiver stress and overwhelm. This is particularly true when caregivers use Reiki for self-help on a regular basis.

All we have is now…heard that before, right?  Well it is the truth.  Now is as real as it gets.  Now is where there is power for choice and change.  We get the gift of the present.  Today we talk about the practice and how we can decide in each moment to really make life count…make it matter…even if sometimes it means the choice we make is to leave our “to do” list aside!

SUNDAY 11/16/2014,  11 am Pacific Time. SUNDAY BRUNCH SHOW!  (347) 677-0699

We've seen it in any activity....the Ego that demands recognition and respect. We all have Ego, but some have bigger ones than others, to the point of inflated self image, a sense of superiority over anyone, and an attitude where everyone should know who you are.

How does Ego affect martial arts training? Or even teaching martial arts? Is humility all that it's cracked up to be? We'll  discuss these questions and more, so join us for the conversation! Give us a call or listen live on Blogtalkradio.com!

Tonight I will be conducting intutive healings LIVE and also sending distant healing for those who call in LIVE to the studio at 347-677-0699. I look forward to being of service to you and helping you on your Journey. 

I have over 40 years of experience as a gifted psychic, empath, tarot reader, healer and intuitive.  All of these abilities help me to understand a situation and predict where it will lead. 

Most of my work is helping people to overcome their doubts, heal their hearts and go forward in life.  I have worked for professional Psychic service lines as well as with my own clients. 

Do you have unanswered questions about a relationship or what to do next?   My spirit guides direct the readings & they find specific questions to be the ideal.  The more specific your question, the more immediate & powerful the information

The future is entirely changeable & not set in stone. We each have free, therefore, the ability to write our own story.  

The power and fruitfulness of intuition has had innumerable and celebrated champions — from Einstein, Anne Lamott, and Steve Jobs to some of history’s greatest scientists and philosophers.
