Doctors explain benefits of chiropractic care.
y Wii Fit age is 43. Thats more than 10 years over my current age. Sad, I know. For those of you not familiar with the popular Wii game, Wii Fit Plus gives users the opportunity to step on the Wii balance board which acts as a scale to calculate your age based on a balance test. The goal is to improve your Wii Fit age by completing training such as yoga, balance games, aerobics and strength. The training helps with my fitness and overall health, but I need to do more. After reading this months Granite Bay View, I found there are endless possibilities. Dr. Ron Geiger of Geiger Chiropractic told a story of a 92-year-old
man who asked for an adjustment. The doctor thought he was 70 because of his good physical shape. The patient later informed Dr. Geiger that he had undergone regular chiropractic adjustments. So maybe if I start now Ill stay looking young for a long time. Read more about the benefits of chiropractic care on page 4. Check out page 29 for an interesting story on Image Health. The Roseville business offers an electronic muscle
stimulator, where electrodes are hooked up to targeted areas of the body. With treatments two or three times a week, patient Kelly Durhams flabby area under her arms has firmed. Rudie Bevins of Image Health says that treatments get muscles in good shape and brings them back to life. Where do I sign up? Maybe if I combined chiropractic care and electronic muscle stimulation with regular exercise and a healthy diet, I could get my Wii Fit age to where its supposed to be. Time to make it happen!

atients of Drs. Ron Geiger and Lynn Johnson of Geiger Chiropractic receive cutting-edge treatment in a relaxed atmosphere. After 24 years in the Sierra Oaks shopping center, the chiropractors moved their business across Douglas Boulevard to a new office on Cavitt Stallman Road last May. The all-inone reception and open adjustment room allows patients to drop in for a quick spinal adjustment and continue with their day. Private treatments are available, too. We want to try to make the office stress-free and convenient for patients, said Geiger, whose past clients include boxers Evander Holyfield and Tony the Tiger Lopez, golf champion Chi Chi Rodriguez, the San Francisco 49ers and Sacramento Kings. In addition to extra training in sports injuries, Geiger has a proven record of offering the most current chiropractic treatments. He was one of the first doctors to use cold laser therapy when the treatment was approved for chiropractic by the FDA 10 years ago. Johnson said the practice now offers nonsurgical decompression, a solution for some patients with bad disc problems for avoiding back surgery. Another treatment, BEMER, a bio electric magnetic energy regulator, increases microcirculation, a benefit for people with diabetes

and for recovery after sports injuries. Geigers new office also boasts a digital X-ray system, which Johnson said is uncommon in the chiropractic business. Patients view their X-rays on a big screen TV in a separate consultation room. Chocolates and coffee keep clients perked. Patients dont care that we have a $70,000 X-ray machine, but they do like that they can have their coffee out of Royal Doulton china, Geiger said.

Those seeking relief from debilitating conditions such as stroke and even autism may benefit from hyperbaric oxygen therapy at Geiger Chiropractic, which has one of the few hyperbaric chambers in Northern California apart from at hospitals like UC Davis. Hyperbaric chambers are used in hospitals to combat the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation. You go under pressure as if youre deep sea diving and we pump in nearly 100 percent oxygen, Geiger said. Geiger offers this variety of treatment options with the hope that patients live fuller lives.

f there was a way to literally walk into the Beach Boys 1988 hit song, Kokomo, then the Beach Hut Deli in Granite Bay would offer the doorway to do it. From the thatched roof above its Tiki bar, to its glowing palm trees, to the Volkswagen van and surfboard tabletops, the ambiance of the place is certainly good for a little escapism during the afternoon lunch hour. The Caribbean dcor of its shaded outdoor seating makes it a relaxed destination for summer nights, too. While some may argue all
of the Beach Hut Delis from Folsom to Roseville share the groovy good vibrations, Granite Bay has the only location within two landlocked counties thats a seven-minute drive from an actual beach at Folsom Lake. Therefore, its environment has a slight edge on authenticity. Besides, the Granite Bay location was actually the very first installment of the ever-expanding franchise in 1981. The Beach Hut Deli now includes 29 locations from Chico to Las Vegas. I recently swung through the founding establishment. Its staff was full of recommendations when it came to choosing

continued from page 13 Another sandwich I decided to try was the Drakester, a hot turkey combo with plump roasted chili peppers, a heavy heap of mayo and a thin touch of pepper jack cheese, all served on toasted sourdough. While the menu describes the Drakester as being somewhat opposite of what I was given heavy on the pepper jack and light on the mayo the order was nevertheless enjoyable. One thing that stood out was that the Drakester is a hand-held fortress of succulently moist layers of turkey. The Ortega peppers add to it by blending spiced, phantom juices into its warm flavors, and the half-bitter smack of the sourdough serves as good topping compli-

ment to this item. The Drakester is a good option for lunch-goers wanting a heavier taste than an offering with as much sweatmeat confection as The Woody. One customer favorite I noticed at the Granite Bay restaurant is Marley Nachos, a pile of chips under bacon, cream cheese, avocado and pepperoncini peppers. The Surfin Bird sandwich turkey, avocado, bacon and cream cheese has also earned high marks from loyal customers, as has the Santa Barbara sandwich, which mixes avocado, cream cheese, bacon and alfalfa sprouts. Granite Bay may not be near any ocean bays, but its Beach Hut Deli can hit the taste buds right while giving you, in the words of the Beach Boys, a tropical contact high.

yle Ruthnick grew up with cold, steel rails and stories of locomotives that he heard from his grandfather, a longtime train conductor. Now that Ruthnicks own career as a train engineer has brought him to the wide cargo lines of Roseville, he and his wife Amy are opening a new tap house on Sierra College Boulevard one that merges a vintage feel with the best craft beers produced in Northern California. The Ruthnicks call their new tavern and specialty bottle shop, Final Gravity. Prior to moving to California, Amy and Kyle Ruthnick were surrounded by craft beers in their neighborhood in Portland, Ore. When Kyle transferred to the Roseville area to take a new job at the citys bustling train yards, the couple decided to fulfill a lifelong dream of opening their own tap house. What we really wanted was a place where people can sit down, drink a beer and have a conversation, Kyle Ruthnick said. Our place isnt a bar with loud music or the clamor of pool tables. We do have sports on, but overall its relaxing and pretty quiet. You can concentrate on enjoying the beer you
ordered, and you can enjoy the company of other people. Final Gravity stresses that intention with its dcor: The warm, deep red and maroon tones with sleek black accents matching the bar reflect a classic simplicity, offering a calm, contemplative environment for the patrons. From Amy Ruthnicks perspective, the bars 21 rotating taps are an excellent way for craft beer lovers to try offerings from Belgium and New Zealand to their new hometown of Roseville. Among the local beers sold at Final Gravity are Rubicon, Auburn Ale House, Loomis Basin Brewing Company, Sonoma Springs, American River Brewing Company, Knee Deep, Track 7 and

This 1990s home at 5911 Wedgewood Drive in Granite Bay has been completely remodeled and is in an established gated neighborhood.
rom its top-of-the-hill location to its redwood and rose garden park-like setting, this Granite Bay property is what dreams are made of. Located in Wedgewood, a lush, well-established gated community in the heart of the Eureka Union School District, the 1990s home has been completely remodeled everything classic and new. The configuration of the home was changed, adding square footage and a large master wing, said Dana Svanum of Bishop Real Estate. A designer and architect helped, re-doing both interior and exterior. The whole-house and
grounds overhaul cost upwards of a cool million, and the effects are nothing short of spectacular. The kitchen in 5911 Wedgewood is a showpiece. Two large islands with pale neutrals like oatmeal dotted with gray, black and raisin fill the space that can easily accommodate half a dozen chefs. A stunning middle-of-theroom stainless hood is the star of this kitchen, seconded by a Thermador six-burner cook top with grill. Other upgrades include supple cherry cabinetry, double ovens, double warming ovens, built-in stainless refrigerator, built-in stainless microwave, dishwasher, compactor, double stainless sinks and a veggie prep sink, as well.

ick Leapleys cat Sophie is a total nutcase. She jumps all over furniture and tears things apart. Shes a real piece of work, said Leapley, 16. But the Roseville Boy Scout loves cats, and other animals, and this inspired his project to earn his Eagle Scout rank. Leapley and 29 volunteers spent made 60 catscratching posts to donate to the Placer SPCA in Roseville. Those posts will go into the kennels while adult cats wait for adoption. Then, the post goes home with the
forever family at no additional cost. They can take something home theyre familiar with, Leapley said. These posts benefit both the felines and their human companions, said Placer SPCA Humane Educator Mary Terrell. The cat-scratching post project is important because it gives the cat something safe to scratch while in their kennels, Terrell said. We also want cats to get used to using a scratching post instead of furniture and curtains. We encourage people to keep their cats safe by keeping them indoors, and providing
fun places for them to scratch indoors makes that possible. Summer marks kitten season as female cats go into heat during warm weather and can have up to three litters during this time of year, Terrell said. Shelters are inundated with unwanted, unplanned kittens during this time of year, she said. Of course, we always have lots of adult cats as well, especially during this time when everyone looking to adopt is usually adopting kittens. Leapley reached out to the nonprofit organization to see how he could help, and soon began buying materials, organizing volunteers and applying for grant fund-

ing to make the scratching posts possible. He ended up receiving $100 from Lowes and a carpet donation to cover the posts. The junior at Woodcreek High School has been in the Boy Scouts since fifth grade. It helps boys become better people and it teaches them lessons they can use, he said. I feel its a good way to give leadership and learn project management skills, and it will help me throughout life.

elly Durham gets a pretty good workout two to three times a week and, in the two months since she started a new program, she has more energy, her waistline is smaller and her back pain is gone. If I wanted to go rollerblading today I could, Durham, 41, said. The flabby area under her arms has firmed and shrunken, but she hasnt lost weight. Thats because she admits to hitting McDonalds and enjoying ice cream sundaes on her way home from work. If I worked on my diet, Id lose weight, she said. Durham isnt frequenting a conventional health club; she gets her workouts at Image Health in Roseville. Thats where she is hooked up to an electronic muscle stimulator. We use this stimulator to get muscles in good shape and bring them back to life, said Rudie Bevins, Image Healths owner. You cannot get in a gym what youre getting here. What clients are getting is a specialized treatment program using electrodes hooked up to targeted areas of the body. Clients lie down in quiet rooms and are supervised during treat-
ments by employees with a fitness training or medical background. Bevins demonstrated the process by placing electrode pads on trigger points on a volunteers legs. After setting the frequencies on the stimulator and turning it on, it was possible to see the muscles alternately contract and relax. The process included a warm-up and cooldown. The latter is similar to a massage, Bevins said. The stimulator tones and tightens specific areas of the body via the electrode pads, which then deliver specific frequencies to the muscles. The intensity is adjustable, Bevins said. The goal is to help increase the flow of oxygenated blood, improve circulation, work with the bodys lymphatic system to promote detoxification, tone muscles, burn calories, help smooth out cellulite and tighten some of the bodys flaccid skin. From all I can gather, were unique, Bevins said. At first, clients visit about three times a week. Once they get in shape, they may only need treatments about three or four times a month. In addition, Bevins said that people need to walk or do other

program will get their strength back, enjoy a healthy lifestyle and look good. The biggest problem in weight loss is that people dont keep their weight off, Bevins said. Increasing lean mass means youll burn calories. If people pick a diet and follow it, they will build a powerful body. The cost of treatments varies depending on the number of sessions purchased at a time and the type of program. The 27minute power series is $65 per session; the one-

lism, Durham said. I love it and I think its great. Image Health has two locations 1411 Secret Ravine Parkway in Roseville and 11220 Gold Express Drive in Gold River. Looking good is what this business is all about, Bevins said.

ach Gorsen got his passport and was ready to go. And the place he went was to the north woods of Minnesota. There, the 14year-old immersed himself into the Spanish culture and language for two weeks in July. He ate authentic foods, learned about traditional songs and activities and played lots of outdoor games, including futbol. He says he attended the camp to help himself in the future. It was for college prep and learning to speak Spanish is valuable in life, said Zach, who recently started his freshman year at Granite Bay High School and hopes to eventually attend Stanford University. Living in California, he knows lots of people who speak Spanish. He also has traveled to Spanish-speaking countries with his par-
ents, including Costa Rica, Mexico and Peru. Minnesota might seem like an odd place to learn Spanish. That is, unless, one participates in the Concordia Language Village, as Zach did. He attended El Lago del Bosque, the Spanish language village. During this simulated visit to another country, campers had class three times a day and participated in outdoor activities. They were urged by camp counselors to speak Spanish the majority of each day, except for free time after dinner. This instruction frustrated some campers who gave up after only a few days. Zachs first three days were challenging, he said, but he pushed through. I definitely learned a lot of Spanish, he said. (At the end), we had a list of words and we taped them to the side of a wall and they took up the whole wall and I
knew almost all of them. His mom, Maureen Gorsen, said her sons interests he has a passion for history and politics and academic pursuits are conducive to him learning a foreign language. Being fluent in a second language is very important, and speaking Spanish is important in California, she said. Zach is going to be in the International Baccalaureate program (in high school) and he will have to take Spanish. Concordia Language Villages began in 1961 with a mission of promoting peace through understanding. The program is part of Concordia College, Moorhead, Minn., which offers programs year-round to ages from infants to seniors. Programs in 15 languages are offered annually.

cott Houston broke all the rules of golf etiquette his first time caddying for legendary golfer Arnold Palmer. He extracted Palmers divot from the 18th fairway at Pebble Beach Golf Links and transplanted the piece of grass, which he grew for several years until one day the plant shriveled up and died. Houston wrote a press release about the death and held a moonlit burial for Arnie the Divot. He attributed the cause of death to overwatering with Coors Light. But the grasss legacy lives on. I would open the bag and let people touch it, Houston, 60, said. And its just a dead piece of grass. You can Google Arnie the Divot. It has a life of its own. The Roseville resident collected dozens of stories during the decade he spent caddying at Pebble Beach from 1992 to 2003. Some of these stories appear in Houstons first book, The Holey Land, published in 2011. It has to do with finding passion in your life, Houston said of his first book. Its not worth waking up and going through the motions. Houstons journey into the golf world began one afternoon when he worked an unsatisfying job as vice president of marketing for a company in Monterey that managed hotels. He put on some Miles Davis and hit chip shots in his air-conditioned office. And Im thinking to myself, What else would
I like to do? he said. I like being outside, I like meeting new people and I like golf. He called up Pebble Beach and applied to be a caddie. His commute turned into the 17-Mile Drive. Before long, he became Palmers personal caddie, a position he held for four years. The famed golfer remembered his caddies name the first time they met. For Houston, that confirmed the rumor: Palmer was a good guy. In 2003, Houston was inducted into the Professional Caddie Association Hall of Fame. Eventually, he left Pebble Beach and spent some time living in Louisiana. He struck up an online correspondence with a former high school classmate, who happened to be the first girl he ever kissed. Eight months later, he moved out to Roseville and the couple married. What I know about golf, I learned from Scott, said his wife, Robin Houston. When I read his caddie stories, what struck me was the personal dimension, humor and insight a round of golf could provide. She already knew the name Arnold Palmer, but then she came to know about Arnie the Divot. She realized shed married a Hall of Fame caddie who considers a dead divot sacred soil. I do, however, insist all divot remnants remain in the man cave, she said. Houston now works in customer service at Sierra View Country Club, showing how his passion for golf is alive and well
unlike Arnie the Divot. Like he said, that grass took on a life of its own, appearing in a documentary called, Golf: the Ridiculous Obsession. Houston even had a chance to win the Golf Nut Societys annual award, but he lost to Michael Jordan, who built a putting green in the basement of his house. Thats not fair, Houston said, recalling the defeat. Im being legitimately nuts.
Scott Houston reenacts his astonishment when he realized hed killed Arnie the Divot, most likely by overwatering the plant with Coors Light. Houston served as Arnold Palmers personal caddie for four years at Pebble Beach Golf Links, where he acquired one of the legendary golfers divots.

Conrys niece, Haley Anderson of Granite Bay, used a strong push at the end to earn a silver medal.
he clock said 6 a.m., confirmed by the rising sun in the east, but the commotion resembled happy hour on the fourth floor at Kaiser Permanente Roseville on Aug. 9. Haley Anderson of Granite Bay was making a late sprint in the last 400 meters of the Olympic womens 10km marathon open-water swim, and a small gathering of family, friends and co-workers were serving as a stomping, cheering alarm clock to the rest of the building. Anderson pushed Eva Risztov all the way to the finish at
Hyde Park in London and touched the wall four-tenths of a second behind the Hungarian, who won the gold medal in 1 hour, 57 minutes, 38.2 seconds. Andersons silver-medal time was 1:57:38.6. Martina Grimaldi of Italy earned the bronze with a time of 1:57:41.8. This is my first really big international 10k, so Im really happy with the results, Anderson said in an interview. It took a lot of energy to catch her, but Im really happy. She had a great race. Andersons silver gives the family two medals in these Games. Sister Alyssa Anderson won gold a week earlier in the 4x200 freestyle relay and joined about 20 family members for Haleys race. Back home in Roseville, Kathi Conry was attending her second viewing party in a week

Alyssa Anderson, swimming here for the University of Arizona, won a gold medal Aug. 1 competing on the grandest stage of them all the Olympics.
Granite Bay graduate swims leg in womens 4x200 freestyle relay preliminary
BY BILL POINDEXTER
lyssa Anderson of Granite Bay and her United States teammates earned Olympic gold in the 4x200 freestyle relay Wednesday in London. My experience at this London 2012 Games has been one in a million, Anderson said in an e-mail to the Press Tribune on Aug. 2. The U.S. set an Olympic record with a time of 7 minutes, 42.92 seconds in the final. Missy Franklin, who now has
won multiple gold medals at these Games, started for the U.S. and led by .45 of a second after her leg. Dana Vollmer swam second, Shannon Vreeland third, and anchor Allison Schmitt came from behind to give the Americans the victory. Australia set the quick time in the preliminaries at 7:49.44 and earned the silver with a time of 7:44.41. France earned bronze. Anderson swam the third leg in a preliminary early Aug. 1, won by the U.S. in 7:50.75, the second-quickest time in the preliminaries. Jeanne Conry of Granite Bay cheered on her niece during the preliminary with other mem-
bers of the family, including Andersons parents, Colette and Randy, younger sister Jordan and cousin Erin Conry Webb. Jeanne Conry said Alyssa Andersons fans sat with the family of swimmer Lauren Perdue and Vollmers husband, Andy Grant. It was just unbelievably exciting, Conry said Aug. 2

from the gymnastics venue. Conry said it was known beforehand that Franklin and Schmitt would swim in the final. The decision on the lineup for the finals is based on a combination of times and coaches prerogative. Dana (Vollmer) is an allaround superb athlete, Conry said. Theres also some factoring for time off the blocks and stuff. Vreeland had the fastest time for the U.S. in the preliminary with Andersons time second. I swam on the prelims relay and guaranteed an evening swim for the relay team that night, Anderson said. I unfortunately just missed out on making it on to the night relay, but it was a best time so I was thrilled with my split. I would have loved to have had the honor of swimming at night with those girls but fell a little short of earning that privilege. Those girls earned it and swam with heart and brought the gold medal back to the U.S. I am just so grateful for such incredible teammates, and what an honor it has been. I watched them swim from the stands with the rest of Team USA. Conry gave her ticket for the final to Erin Conry Webb, who traveled from France for the event. Conry Webb also traveled to Portugal in June, when Alyssas sister, Haley Anderson, won the FINA USA Marathon Swim Qualifier. Haley Anderson swam in the womens 10km marathon Aug. 9.
A whole group of us were cheering, so we had the pub people cheering with us. What means so much to all these athletes is hearing all the support from home.
Jeanne Conry of Granite Bay
IN BRIEF
Jeanne Conry said the hospitality of London residents extended to a pub, where she watched the final. A whole group of us were cheering, so we had the pub people cheering with us, she said. What means so much to all these athletes is hearing all the support from home. In Roseville, Kathi Conry and the rest of the crew at Kaiser Permanente cheered for Anderson during the preliminary and for the U.S. foursome in the final Aug. 1. All of Kaiser is excited, she said. Only the final foursome was honored at the medal ceremony. Anderson received her medal at a later time. Anderson qualified for an Olympic relay team by finishing sixth in the 200 freestyle at the U.S. Trials in Omaha, Neb. Swimming for the University of Arizona last spring, Anderson earned All-America status in five events at the NCAA Championships in Auburn, Ala., and finished her collegiate career as a 13-time AllAmerican.

chool just started, but Granite Bay students are excited to learn. And that might be, in part, because of the outstanding programs that several Granite Bay schools offer. Cavitt Junior High School in the Eureka Union School District has been offering STEM classes (Science, Technology, Engineering and
Mathematics) for two years. This year, both junior high schools in the district will offer PLTW (Project Lead the Way) courses, which pair with STEM, to make sure students excel in science, math, and learn the problem solving skills that are a necessity in todays job market. Cavitt principal Jennifer Platt cant say enough positive things

about the science program. We are re-energizing and refocusing our efforts to improve student achievement and focus on future career opportunities, Platt said. We have our elective programs that are either two or three trimesters, and we also offer onetrimester enrichment courses that are STEM focused, like forensics and robotics. Longer courses include Science Challenge 7 for seventh-grade students, and PLTW, which is a science technology course for eighth-graders. Cavitt science teacher Ron Pozzi describes his new PLTW course as an academic elective that is basically a middle school engineering course. The curriculum is

provided by PLTW and involves advanced work with CAD (computer aided design) engineering software like Autodesk Inventor and Vex Robotics, Pozzi said. Granite Bay High School is also implementing courses
from PLTW and utilizes the same software and robotics components at a more advanced level. Pozzi describes the single trimester classes as creative problem solving enrichment classes in which students are challenged to work collaboratively and innovatively to solve specified project challenges which also support the districts Challenge 21 Program. Lego Mindstorm Robotic projects and building balsa towers and water rockets are just a few of the activities that students will enjoy during the trimester. Who knew that science could be so much fun? Its very difficult to end class each day. The kids just want to keep working, Pozzi said. Students love the

hands-on, science-based classes so much so that Platt has added additional class periods to meet with demand. Platt loves the classes, too. Its so much fun watching students build a rocket, then seeing how high it can go and still come back in one piece, she said. But more than
that, she loves the fact that STEM and PLTW are drawing kids interest to science and math fields, and improving study habits across the curriculum. Anything that creates interest in school, interest in reading and writing, or problem solving is great. And were definitely seeing increased interest from girls, in science and math, Platt said. PLTW is also very interesting because its supported by tech-based businesses and university professors who have helped create the curriculum. Nearby school districts think STEM and PLTW are interesting too several schools have come to observe how Cavitt is implementing the programs.

hen Eric came back from his second tour in Iraq, he wasnt the same person he was when he left. A combat solider with the Air Force, Eric was on edge, experiencing anxiety and in pain. The war had lasting effects on Eric and he had to undergo several reconstructive surgeries on his right knee. On one occasion, the surgery was going to be very invasive, and Eric began to feel extreme anxiety. His wife suggested that perhaps he could be hypnotized before the surgery. Eric was skeptical, but upon the urging of his wife, he decided to give it a try. I didnt believe in it, but I went in with an open mind, Eric said. He made two appointments with David Chervick at the Hypnosis Center at Secret Ravine in Roseville. I didnt think it would work at all, Eric said. But the next morning, before and after the surgery, Eric felt different. This was the most invasive and by all means should have been the hardest to recover from, but it ended up being the opposite. To his amazement, the hypnotherapy had worked. I cant explain why or how it worked, but it is the only thing I did different and it was the best
recovery I had, he said. After the surgery, Eric returned to see Chervick. Eric admitted that he was suffering in silence from post-traumatic stress disorder. PTSD is classified as a disorder that can occur after witnessing or experiencing a traumatic event that involved the threat of injury or death. I knew I was experiencing symptoms from PTSD, he said. I wanted to see if hypnotherapy would help me get past this disorder. After four months of weekly sessions with Chervick, Eric says its made all the difference in the world to him, his wife and his two young daughters. Hypnotherapy has boosted my confidence, and given me skills to deal with my PTSD, Eric said. Although a heavily debatable form of treatment, hypnosis has been used for centuries as a form of therapy when used for positive change. It has also been criticized

HYPNOSIS: Treatment has been used for centuries as a form of therapy for positive change
continued from page 47 as a form of brainwashing when used in unethical ways. In essence, hypnotherapy can enable the mind to tell the body how to react, and modify the messages that the body sends to the mind. It has been used to counter the nausea from chemotherapy and pregnancy; speech and social anxiety; pain associated dental treatments and childbirth; fear of flying and agoraphobia; panic attacks; irritable bowel syndrome; and many other health problems, phobias and disorders. Eric is optimistic that he will be able to get past his PTSD. He attributes his success to Cher-
vick and his calm approach to intense hypnotherapy. Chervick is a certified hyp-
notherapist with 30 years of extensive experience in the use of hypnosis. As a licensed psy-
chotherapist, he combines hypnotherapy and psychotherapy to help people heal from a myriad of disorders and ailments such as nail biting, anxiety disorders and weight loss. Mind, body and spirit are one, but they do affect each other, Chervick said. Hypnosis training allows you to use

the strong, powerful part of your brain to help you do your best. Originally trained in clinical hypnosis in 1976, Chervick uses a form of deep trance called transformative hypnotherapy. Transformative hypnotherapy focuses on the subconscious part of the brain, called theta. Brainwaves have four categories: alpha, beta, delta and theta, Chervick said. While in the theta state, the mind is capable of deep focus and profound learning, healing and growth. Wonderful things happen in the theta brain. Chervick said bad habits can be easier to break through the suggestive power of hypnosis while in a hypnotic trance. In this trance, you are neither unconscious nor asleep, but rather in a deeply relaxed state that renders the mind highly focused and ready to accept suggestions to help you accomplish your goals. Chervick shares an office suite with Gary C. Yeatts, the

founder of Clarity Hypnosis. Yeatts is a licensed clinical social worker, a certified clinical hypnotherapist, a master practitioner of neuro-linguistic programming, and a certified consulting hypnotist. He is certified by the International Hypnosis Federation and the National Guild of Hypnotists. Yeatts offers individual hypnosis programs tailored to individual needs as well as hypnocoaching for enhanced results.
Yeatts is very outcome-driven. The goal of hypnosis coaching, he said, is to help patients use their unconscious potential to become the very best they can be. Both therapists said hypnosis could be helpful even if done with a CD, which they both offer as part of their practice. When a person uses the CD at home, they get more experience getting to that trance state, Chervick explained. They learn to selfhypnotize and this makes it easier to guide them in their office sessions with me. Although hypnotherapy may not be for everyone, Eric says he plans to continue his therapeutic sessions with Chervick. Im facing this disorder head-on, and not allowing it to rule my life, Eric said. I feel good and hopeful and I would recommend this to anyone whos trying to overcome something in their life. Go in with an open mind, you might be surprised.

Susan Rickman, left, and Carol Ashlin offer classes for the body and soul at the Mandala Healing Arts Center in Granite Bay.
any yogis know that the ancient art of yoga is all about connecting mind, body and spirit. But at Mandala Healing Arts Center, yoga is just one of the many activities available to help people realize their full potential and make sure mind, body and spirit are integrated in to one healthy whole. In a tiny studio located at the end of a shaded, nature-filled lane, the Mandala Healing Arts Center is hidden among lush foliage and a deliciously fragrant hedge of rose bushes. The center, with its peaceful courtyard, is the essence of calm and relaxation the per-
fect setting for a yoga class, a guided imagery and music session, or an intuition development workshop, just a few of the classes that Susan Rickman and Carol Ashlin offer. Rickman and Ashlin were destined to work together. Both women collaborated for years as learning disabilities specialists at California State University, Sacramento. We taught learning-skills and study-skills workshops for students over the years, Ashlin said. We had a base of wholebrain learning. The women are both experts in helping people learn, using a style that works for the student a product of their years-long careers in school settings.

Today, both women are excited to help people unlock their potential and experience personal growth. We help people access parts of the brain that are usually not available to them, Rickman said. Ashlin agreed. People only use about 10 percent of their brains. That means there is 90 percent left unused. Helping people develop their natural intuition is a big part of unlocking the unused portion of the brain. We can all be intuitive if we choose to be, Ashlin said. We all have the potential, and some of us want to reach our potential. Everyday examples of people who have developed their intuition are athletes who can visual-
ize the game or sport and perform better as a result, inventors like Thomas Edison, who dreamed about an invention, then created it, musicians who have created complex classical works, and scientists like Albert Einstein, who said that imag-
ination is more important than knowledge. Training minds to tap in to the intuition they possess can be invaluable in helping people perform better in their home lives, their professions, with decision making, and within their personal relationships. Most people know they have intuition they have a gut feeling about something. But its sporadic. Weve been taught in school a very linear, left-brain way of thinking. We dont know how to access our intuition at will. People know they are missing something, and they want a guiding force in their lives, Ashlin said. I teach people how the brain works. I teach people how to touch on our

Grenade Jumper consists of five Granite Bay High graduates: Erik Parker on vocals, Marshall Hampson, on bass and keys, Brett Hampson on guitar, Matt Breining on guitar and Craig Smith on drums. This was easily the biggest show they had performed to date, but their accomplishments on stage pale in comparison to their stringent work ethic, devotion to their church, and uncompromising will to have a college degree to fall back on should they not become famous. Were definitely not a conventional band who drops everything in hopes of being big, Marshall Hampson said. We all want to have college degrees as backup plans because we know the chances of being rock stars are very slim.

Brothers Marshall and Brett and their cousin, Breining, have been playing for the better part of six years. Parker and Smith joined in 2007 and 2008, respectively. The band was formed while the original three members were in high school and their first show was at Granite Bay Highs talent show in 2006. Since then, the band has had tremendous local success and as this article is being written, they are on their way to perform a show in Los Angeles. But this isnt your typical alternative band and their sarcastic, wisecracking personalities and high energy appearances are just a small part of a much bigger picture. Each member of the group is either currently attending college or recently graduated. Breining just graduated from University of California, Irvine and is enrolled at McGeorge Law School where he began in the fall. Brett Hampson is scheduled to graduate from Baylor University in December. Smith currently attends Azusa Pacific University, Parker just graduated San Francisco State University and Marshall Hampson just graduated California State University, Sacramento. And the accomplishments dont end there. Each member volunteers in the community, his school, or church and all of the young men are under 25 years old. So what motivates this group to be so determined to succeed in life and in music? One might attribute their fortitude to the love of music.
The bands harmonious sounds are reminiscent of early Fall Out Boy with a dash of All American Rejects, and writing their songs is a collective effort. Staying in touch during the school year might be impossible if not for the magic of the Internet. The band collaborates electronically throughout the year by means of email, iPhones and music programs.
The bands harmonious sounds are reminiscent of early Fall Out Boy with a dash of All American Rejects, and writing their songs is a collective effort. We all write our songs. Everybody in the band has their own song ideas, Marshall Hampson said. If we think its good enough to go on the album, well all add onto it. Keeping consistent with being the atypical band that earns recognition by releasing original music, Grenade Jumper has already recorded and released two albums and released a new EP entitled Night of My Life, last month. Staying in touch during the school year might be impossible if not for the magic of the Internet. The band collaborates electronically throughout the year by means of email, iPhones and music programs. With all of us away from each other throughout the school year, we usually use GarageBand to record our songs and email them to each other, Marshall Hampson said. Perhaps their success is due to keeping a level head and living life to the fullest. Drummer Smith is an avid outdoor enthusiast. I like to whitewater kayak, do lots of activities outdoors, and unicycle, he said. In fact, his photo was on a recent cover of the Press Tribune for riding a 6-foot giraffe unicycle in the Independence Day parade in Roseville. Breining is having the time of his life. Since the formation of the band, we have had a lot of amazing opportunities, from playing with some of my favorite bands to touring the West Coast, Ive made some of the best memories with my best friends, he said. I would encourage everyone to come out to a show sometime and experience it first-hand.

Being responsible
responsibility. It took me months to earn enough money to buy the family a replacement lamp, but I can remember their respect for me in taking ownership of the problem. I enjoyed many more years of working for them. Children learn valuable lessons by experiencing first-hand predicaments, but I believe we have the responsibility to teach them the meaning of responsibility and what happens when they arent responsible.
As a core value, it is not only taking care of duties and answering for actions, it is being accountable, dependable and trustworthy for behavior, such as calling a parent to say you will be late, eating healthy foods, following through without giving up, keeping a promise, completing assignments and returning a library book on time. Wendell Phillips said, Responsibility educates. Winston Churchills wisdom included, The price of greatness is responsibility.
the ways each family member is treated. Is love and respect demonstrated? What happens when there are times of stress? Does the child know and understand the family rules? Is the child given duties to complete each week and are the duties completed? If not, the lesson learned doesnt make the child responsible.
music and see if you can spot examples of responsibility, perseverance and dependability.
they become learning points for you? Encouragement and follow through will be vital. Remember responsibility is answering for your actions, being accountable and trustworthy. Youve probably heard action speaks louder than words.
Be a community
Take a load to the dump, work on recycling and organize a street and/or school clean-up project. Volunteer at a community center or day care. Remember, one way to keep your feet on the ground is to put responsibility on your shoulders.

Top 10 exercise ball moves that will help tighten the core W
ith everything that youve got going on in your life, taking time to tighten your core is probably not a high priority. An easy way to incorporate core strengthening into your exercise routine is to work the following 10 exercise ball moves into your routine. As with other exercises, warm up before using an exercise ball. For specific exercises, keep your back straight, avoid locking your knees and breathe properly. The size of ball you use should be based on your height and weight. When sitting on a ball, your thighs should be parallel to the ground. Choose dumbbell weights based on your fitness level.
1: Ball push-up 7: Ball triceps extension Deb Skelton Fitness Column
ly lift and straighten your left leg and right arm. Extend them away from the bodys center while keeping your hips stable and balancing on the ball. Finally, bring your leg and arm back toward the ball. Perform eight extensions before switching sides.
4: One-legged ball squat
Also called the triceps blaster. Rest your forearms on the ball with your legs extended straight and toes on the floor. Keep your back straight and roll the ball toward your hands so you can lift yourself up and straighten your arms. Then slowly lower back down to your forearms.
8: Lying ball squeeze
Squeeze the ball while lifting your buttocks off the floor and squeezing your thighs together. Lower your back down to the floor and repeat.
9: Ball leg curl
Targets your inner thighs, back and buttocks. Lay on your back and hold the ball between your lower legs.
To work your hamstring muscles, lie on your back and rest the back of your calves and thighs on the ball. Squeeze the ball by pushing your feet toward your buttocks. Release, repeat.
10: Ball shoulder flies
To work your shoulders, lay at an angle with your belly resting on the
ball, back straight, legs extended behind you. Hold a dumbbell in each hand and start with your arms at your sides. Raise your arms out to the sides until the dumbbells reach shoulder-level. Slowly release back to your sides and repeat. If you cant do it all, then pick one exercise to perform daily. You will be amazed how five minutes a day will strengthen your core, improve your posture and balance, and help guard against back injuries.
If your job calls for sitting at a desk all day, then swap out your chair for an exercise ball. When sitting on an exercise ball, your body will constantly make small adjustments, often imperceptible, to remain balanced. These small movements, over the course of a day, result in the strengthening and tightening of your core.

A great way to work your chest, triceps, upper pectoral and core muscles. Rest your upper thighs on the ball and place your hands on the floor shoulder width apart. Lower your upper body toward the ground until your arms are bent at 90 degrees, and then lift back up. This really targets your chest.
2: Ball sit-up
To work your quadriceps and buttocks, stand up straight and place your right ankle on top of the ball behind you so your weight is on your left leg. Slowly lower your body until your left leg is bent at the knee at 90 degrees and your right leg extends behind you. Rise back up and lower again. Alternate sides after 10 squats.
5: Ball jackknife
This works your abdominal, core and hip muscles. Sit on the top front of the ball and place your hands behind your head. Lie back until your back is touching the ball, and then slowly sit back up straight, lifting with your abs, not your neck.
3: Arm-leg extension
For abdominal and hip muscles. Place your hands on the floor shoulder-width apart, arms extended, ankles on the ball, and legs extended. Put your weight on your arms and roll the ball in toward your arms by bending your knees and waist. Extend your legs back out straight. Repeat.

AAA Roseville South 1850 Douglas Blvd. Ste 406 Roseville, CA 95661 (916) 724-0320
This targets just about all major muscle groups especially the buttocks, hamstrings and upper and lower back muscles. Get on all fours with the exercise ball placed under your abdomen. Simultaneous-
This simple exercise works abdominals, shoulders, chest and back. Sit on your knees and lean over onto the exercise ball, placing your forearms on the ball. Keep your back straight and bend your elbows at 90 degrees. Roll the ball forward and raise off your knees onto your toes. Extend your legs straight. Return to your knees.

he area around Downieville is a great place to get away, to really get away, to literally get away. If you have a vacation in mind that really isnt a vacation at all you know, cell phone in hand, texting and talking away, keeping updated with the office on the laptop then Sierra City isnt for you because cell phone service and Internet connections are as rare as people and traffic in these parts. But it has a great place to stay. Herringtons Sierra Pines Resort is the perfect home away from home for a weekend or a week. The restaurant serves tasty and hearty breakfast and dinner, and the cooks will prepare a rainbow trout should you hook one from the pond out front. Open the sliding back door in your room and listen to the continuous noise sort of a soothing crash of the waterfall that dumps fresh water into the North Fork of the Yuba River. The area offers nature in its purest form. Two baby ringtailed cats, normally found in the Arizona desert, wrestle on the rocks as either mommy or daddy sits nearby, eyeballing a tourist. You can eat, drink, sleep, watch TV and do a whole lot of nothing at Sierra Pines, and enjoy every second of this peace and quiet. And if you want to get even more away from it all, you can ask for Richard Blankenbiller and David Marcus. Youll need them. Theyre neighbors just up the road from Sierra Pines Resort, and theyll take you darn-near all the way to the top of the Sierra Buttes 8,600 feet up. The Pacific Crest Trail rolls through these parts on its way from Canada to Mexico. I go up there all the time,
The China Wall in the Sierra Buttes near Downieville was assembled with rock to build a road during the Gold Rush.
and I have a good time, said Marcus, our chauffeur for the day, first in his truck and then in his ATV for a ride up the buttes too bumpy even for his Jeep. During the ATV ride, we stop at one of more than 30 lakes in
the area, some of which you can only walk to. Upper Sardine was named after a mule during the Gold Rush. Volcano Lake is warm, and the surface is like glass on a comfortable, sunny day. At the shore of Volcano Lake is a
plaque with a quote from John Muir that reads: Doubly happy, however, is the man to whom lofty mountaintops are within reach. We park the ATV and set out on foot at 4,000 feet elevation. You can see forever up here. The air is fresh and clean, and wild flowers sprout from the mountains and between rocks. We hiked high enough to run our fingers through leftover snow. Blankenbiller, our guide, is the caretaker for the Sierra County Alliance. He knows his history and knows this area well. He shares that Downieville in
the 1850s was considered as a site for the state capitol and was the first town in the state to hang a woman. He points out the China Wall, massive rocks placed one on top of the other to build a long road for mining during the Gold Rush. You can see the old mountain mine. Ore cars remain up here, remains of the Gold Rush. I just love it up here, Blankenbiller said. People come up here and enjoy it, and thats the way it should be. Blankenbiller and Marcus encourage visitors to look them up, and theyll gladly take you to a place youll never forget.
