While these states are natural and can certainly be appropriate, whenever any one of them dominates the inner landscape and begins to regularly interfere with daily life, it is inevitable that the physical body will be affected. In this class, Amanda Lewis will talk about how acupuncture, diet, self-reflection, and the use of certain herbal remedies and supplements can be used to address many of the most common mood imbalances: stress & anxiety, depression, melancholy and grief.<b> </b>At the end of the class, she will give a tour through Greenstar, highlighting the various foods and supplements mentioned in the class. Amanda Lewis is nationally board-certified and licensed in acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. She graduated from Southwest Acupuncture College (Boulder, CO) and has seven years of experience in both Western and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). She currently sees patients at the PADMA Center for Natural Therapies in downtown Ithaca and at the Orthopedic Associates clinic in Binghamton. To schedule a consultation with Amanda, call (607) 768-5958.<br> <br> Meet the Practitioner <br> <font size="4"><b>Medical Aromatherapy<br> </b></font>Wednesday, January 27, 7-8:15 pm <br> For thousand of years, the therapeutic use of essential oils from aromatic plants has been utilized for the maintenance and restoration of health. Essential oils, believed to possess the most concentrated aspect of a plant, anointed for their scent, applied on the skin or ingested can create healing and promote well being. In this class, Suzana Jelovecki, L.Ac., will introduce you to innovative approaches to medical aromatherapy in a framework of Chinese Medicine energetics. The accent will be on using some of the most common essential oils on acupuncture points, recipes for simple and pleasurable oil blends, guidance on how to choose high quality oils and on proper and responsible application to avoid toxicity and other harmful effects. <br> <br> Classes are free (unless noted) and open to the public, and are held in the meeting room at GreenStar Cooperative Market’s West-End Store, 701 W.
