NOVEMBER 2014
Giving thanks
November is catered to comfort: cozy blankets, scented candles and hearty meals
meant to touch our souls and bring about pleasant nostalgia. Its easy to envision
the things the season brings, but what about what it brings about in us?
It can be difficult to think of this month without jumping to Thanksgiving
and the sometimes-hectic anticipation surrounding it. Every year, the fourth
Thursday of the month is an excitedly and anxiously awaited celebration with
enough stress to go around.
Amongst the warmth and contentment of the season, where does this oftenaccompanying pressure come from? Hosting the annual event and preparing food
for family and friends? The inevitable aftermath and cleanup? Maybe from the
notion that Thanksgiving opens the gate to the whirlwind that is the winter season.
What the holiday is really about is simple: giving thanks.
In our everyday lives, things become ordinary. This isnt necessarily a negative,
but we tend to take things for granted and forget to appreciate the little things.
Yet in November, we spend the weeks leading up to the big day thinking about
what we are most grateful for.
What if we carried this tradition into our lives year-round? How much richer
would our moments be?
Much, according to Michael Craig Miller, M.D., former editor-in-chief of the
Harvard Mental Health Letter and an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard
Medical School. There are several advantages to feeling and expressing gratitude.
BEING THANKFUL CAN HELP YOU:
Feel more positive emotions. Relish good experiences. Improve health. Deal with
adversity. Build strong relationships.
Being appreciated and recognizing worth in others simply feels good, but really,
being grateful also has clear benefits.
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is
not to utter words, but to live by them. John F. Kennedy
Natures Pathways feels honored to offer you words providing health and wellness wisdom to live by. Thank you for supporting us and our mission to bring
our community together.
Were grateful for you this Thanksgiving and every season.

Food
Treats
Many treats have ingredients that are questionable, and of course, many are high
in calories and full of bad fats. Instead of
going for a box of your traditional MilkBones, swap it out for a bag of blueberries
or a slice of real chicken instead. Whole
foods are much healthier for your pet than
some of the processed, mainstream treats
we love to buy.
If you do want to buy the cute treats,
weed out the same ingredients you would
weed out in their foods. There are treats that
are more nutritious than what you find in
the pet aisle at your local grocery store.

Mens grief
tools
By Robert Matuszak
Journaling
You say that you arent a writer or dont like to write. I suggest you
try art: drawing, sketching, painting. You might try sculpture,
woodworking, carpentry or other creative outlets. Music is another
option; expressing grief through playing music, singing, writing
lyrics or other musical expression can be invaluable. The mind and
heart together give expression through their creative arm, especially in healing grief.
Meditation
Here is a beneficial grief tool and also a good life tool that works
as a stress reducer and brings calmness, better focus, and a release
of thoughts and feelings through breathing and mindfulness.
Mindfulness is defined as being present in the moment. Even
a short meditation of a few minutes can bring relief to your grief.
In my experiences with grief, my mind seemed like it would go
in 1,000 directions simultaneously. I couldnt focus on the moment
without having thoughts of this, that and other things racing through
my mind. My mind seemed to go from past to present to future and
back repeatedly. My worry meter went off the scale frequently as
my mind tossed me around in scenarios that only seemed to serve
10
More suggestions
These may not sound like grief tools but when I was grieving all these
and many more basic life tools became my grief tools. You will find
more grief tools as you progress in your recovery. Choose the ones
that work and put the others aside until you need them.
Robert is the owner of Orion Consulting LLC, formerly Windhorse
Coaching LLC, a consulting and coaching firm that provides grief-relief
programs to businesses, groups and adults. He is a certified Heartbreak
to Happiness coach with over 20 years coaching and consulting experience. His focus is on men especially, and women who have experienced
traumatic grief from sudden loss, post-traumatic stress disorder, suicide and others.

Boat Pose
The yoga pose
of the month
By Andrea Smessaert
s the daylights starts to wane and the rapid transition from summer to fall begins, we can remain firmly
grounded amidst the shifting natural world by connecting with the earthy energy of our third chakra. Located behind
the navel, the third chakra, known as Manipura Chakra, is the
center of our dynamism, energy, will and achievement, and it is
often compared to the dazzling heat and power of the sun. Poses
like Navasana (both the full Paripurna, meaning full, entire,
complete, and half Ardha versions) build the core strength necessary to boost this chakra.
The solar plexus chakra is not only the key to a healthy self-esteem
and personal empowerment, but on a physical level is also linked
with digestion, immunity, diabetes or hypoglycemia. This chakra is
also very susceptible to highs and lows, creating peaks and valleys in
your energy levels. A balanced third chakra means balanced energy,
healthy immunity, healthy digestion and strong personal power.
On the outset, the Full Boat Pose appears a seemingly basic
position to achieve, as it does not require an excessive amount of
flexibility. In reality, however, the required amount of core stability, strength, postural awareness and endurance is considerable. It
is the link between core stability and strength.
Core stability is the ability of the body to control the trunk or core.
The muscles of the body are either global (movement) or stabilizer (postural) muscles and core stability involves the control
of both the deep stabilizing muscles and more superficial global
muscles. Good core stability is using the right muscles at the right
time and intensity to control the trunk appropriately for the task
at hand. The global muscles are designed to generate a lot of force
for short periods of time and the stabilizer muscles are designed
to work at a low intensity for long periods of time and during any
body movement.
Once you can achieve the Full Boat position, being able to
www.naturespathways.com
maintain this pose for up to a minute requires controlled breathing and muscle endurance. To maintain this position and to
control the breathing requires practice at allowing the diaphragm
to relax and work normally.
Sit on the floor with your legs straight in front of you. Press your
hands on the floor a little behind your hips, fingers pointing
toward the feet, and strengthen the arms. Lift through the top of
the sternum and lean back slightly. As you do this, make sure your
back doesnt round; continue to lengthen the front of your torso
between the pubis and top sternum. Sit on the tripod of your
two sitting bones and tailbone.
Exhale and bend your knees, then lift your feet off the floor so
that your thighs are angled about 45-50 degrees relative to the
floor. Lengthen your tailbone into the floor and lift your pubis
toward your navel. If possible, slowly straighten your knees,
raising the tips of your toes slightly above the level of your eyes.
If this isnt possible, remain with your knees bent, perhaps lifting
the shins parallel to the floor.
Stretch your arms alongside the legs, parallel to each other and the
floor. Spread the shoulder blades across your back and reach strongly
out through the fingers. If this isnt possible, keep your hands on the
floor beside your hips or hold on to the backs of your thighs.
While the lower belly should be firm, it shouldnt get hard and
thick. Try to keep the lower belly relatively flat. Press the heads of
your thigh bones toward the floor to help anchor the pose and lift the
top sternum. Breathe easily. Tip the chin slightly toward the sternum
so the base of the skull lifts lightly away from the back of the neck.
Congratulations; youve set sail with the Boat Pose.

Wrist
relief 101
By Hope Zvara
IMAGES
epetitive wrist strain is one of the most common injuries the average American suffers. With an astounding
amount of people leading sedentary jobs and on top of
that living a life full of texting, Facebook and computers, there is
little time of relief for those poor little wrists of ours.
Fitness does not have to be formal, and to be called yoga, it
doesnt even have to be practiced on a yoga mat. Three simple yet
effective moves can help with writers cramp, carpel tunnel (which
is simply inflammation in the carpel tunnel) and forearm strain.
Lets work to take a minibreak whenever we can to best help an
area in which many have discomfort yet few do something about.
In a comfortable seated or standing position, extend your left
arm directly out in front of the shoulder. Flex the hand to turn the
fingers to the sky. Using the other hand, draw back on the fingers,
thumb and top of the palm to a gentle pull as you reach out through
the heel of the hand. Imagine a rod extending out from the heel of
the hand as you flex the palm back. Be mindful to keep the arm
straight (no hyperextension in the elbow) and the shoulder relaxed.
Hold this simple yet intense stretch for five to ten slow mindful
breaths, noticing the stretch in the palm as well as the forearm.
Next, turn the fingers to face downward and now using the opposite hand, draw back on the top of the palm (not just the fingers)
and extend out through the top of the wrist. Check to keep the
length through the arm and allow the fold of the elbow to rotate
upward as you relax the shoulder. Hold this stretch for five to ten
breaths, noticing the stretch in the top of the wrist into the forearm.
Finally, take the same hand and place the palm to the center of
the chest, fingers toward the sky; using the opposite hand clasp
hold of the thumb side of the hand wrapping your fingers into the
center of the left palm. Breathing calmly, start to guide the hand
into a twisted position at the wrist line. As you twist the wrist,
resist the twist with working to draw back against the twist feeling
a deep opening along the wrist and forearm. Be mindful to keep
the wrist and hand upright to keep the twist balanced and deep.
Remain holding the twist for five to ten breaths. As you release,
allow the hand to rest, then work it into an opening and closing
movement until you feel balance once again.
These stretches are incredibly helpful for those of us who
use computers on a regular basis as well as our fellow texting

Giving
thanks
It is necessary for
happiness and joy!
By Jill E. Greinke, MSW, LCSW, SAC
elcome, November! For those of us who live in Wisconsin, November is a month that transitions us into cold
snow, dark nights and a long winter. In the U.S., we
vote for new officials at the beginning of the month, honor veterans about a week later and begin the holiday season by celebrating
Thanksgiving. The clocks have fallen back, and there is less light
until the winter solstice, at which time sunlight slowly but steadily
increases again.
Upon hearing the word thanksgiving, many people think of
the holiday celebrated in the United States. Others think of what
they are thankful for. Often, it is easy for us to associate what we
are thankful for with concepts, things and people that are outside
of ourselves. This is very easy for us to do because we live in a
global society that for hundreds, if not thousands, of years has
focused on materialism and progress that can be found outside
of our simple, small individual reality.

natural way that our brain can protect us: by speeding all of our
bodily systems to help us escape. But today, trauma caused by
repeated fight-or-flight responses can result from fighting in wars,
being in accidents, witnessing horrific events or something as
mundane as hearing a small sentence that scared us to death.
As predispositioned as our brains are for survival, they also have
the ability to hardwire happiness, as Hanson eloquently describes
in his book. Many scientists today are studying what is known as
neuroplasticity or brain plasticity. This is where the brain is able to
rewire itself by changing neural pathways and synapses. So, hardwiring happiness entails reprograming the brain to focus on positive experiences. Giving thanks, being grateful, and appreciating the
good including what we inherently are born with or later acquire
can be the starting point to experiencing joy and happiness.
Finding ways to release negative thoughts and emotions by
reframing them and changing ones perspective can seem like
denial. Is it a challenge? Yes! But it is doable. Why is it important?
Because we may not be able to change the physical world around
us, but we can certainly change our attitudes. Remember Mahatma
Gandhis famous quote: You must be the change you wish to see in
the world. We can only be the change by giving thanks for who
we are and what we possess internally: our gifts and talents.

In relationships, Scorpio is
learning to open into the
vulnerable intimacy of feelings,
to accept support from others
and embrace cooperation
and merging of power.
death, in any form, is but a rebirth of something new: that we are,
as souls, immortal. Where change is demanded, Scorpio is there.
Our healthy, conscious Scorpio is learning self-discipline and
how to choose constructive change, releasing whatever causes
stagnation and low energy, eliminating nonuseful possessions,
and enjoying things without the need to own them. In relationships, Scorpio is learning to open into the vulnerable intimacy of
feelings, to accept support from others, and embrace cooperation
and merging of power. In the process, we become more aware of
other peoples psychology (desires, needs, wants and motives) and
learn how to blend our energy with theirs to meet our own needs.
Our unconscious Scorpio self becomes judgmental and impatient, overreacts intensively, and becomes preoccupied with other
peoples motivations, taking things personally. Unenlightened
Scorpio can be fearful of change and frightened by the unknown.
www.naturespathways.com
To heal and evolve your Scorpio self, pay attention to your feelings.
Do you routinely honor and respect your own feelings and share
them with trusted loved ones? Or do you stay hidden? How good
are you at reading other peoples feelings? What do you do with
that? Are you drawn to melodrama, in yourself or others? Jealous
much? Whats behind that? Do you ask directly for what you need
or do you manipulate? Do you resist cooperation? Do you lash out
when feeling threatened? Have you learned the difference between
interdependence and codependence? Are you confident about your
immortality? Can you enthusiastically embrace change?

The lily is unique among flowers. Unlike the pretty but prevalent rose
or the dainty daffodil, this flower comes in all sorts of shapes, sizes
and colors. Each lily tells a tale through its symbolism: friendship,
devotion, hope, faith, renewal and more. But no matter what they
look like or their meaning, lilies all have one thing in common a
sense of peaceful beauty.
Cedarburg store Lillies Goods shares much with the lily, and not
just a similar-sounding name. This family-owned and operated shop
also boasts endless, beautiful variety coupled with its own story.
Now you just need some leggings so you can wear your new
sweater tomorrow. You find an amazing pair of leggings that you
cant live without. This time the tag is different; instead, it lists the
eco-fabrics its made of: organic cotton, bamboo, soy and hemp.
No pesticides. Fair trade. Sustainable. Fast growing. Naturally antibacterial. Bio-degradable. Strong. Earth friendly. And crazy stylish
OK, you added that one.
You continue walking around and check out some vibrant
beaded jewelry that caught your eye. When you look closer, you see
the beads are actually made of rolled up magazines. Intrigued, you
read the tag and find out the beads are hand-rolled in Uganda by a
company called BeadforLife. Women who make the unique jewelry
are enrolled in a program not only to make the bracelet in your
hand, but to gain knowledge on how to open a baking account, hire
employees, run a business, and create a better life for themselves
and their children.
You walk by a line of adorable stuffed barnyard animals and
remember you have that baby shower coming up. You pick up the
cutest one, the pig with a pirate patch, and again read the tag. Its
made of organic cotton, inside and out.

You realize they probably have headbands at Lillies (they seem to have
just about everything). Then you see them: hundreds of options! You
look up at the sign and read that with each headband purchased, money
is donated to provide three meals for a child in need in eastern Africa.
Now you realize you have to stop shopping so you dont spend
your whole paycheck, but you cant help but want to walk through
and make sure you read all the stories. You read about the lucky
three-legged pigs made in Chile. You read about the bullet crosses
made in Liberia. You read about a line of handbags from Cambodia
that works to end human trafficking. You read and read and read
until you realize you can make a difference; you can make a difference with the things and gifts you buy. You can make a fairer world
by buying fair trade products.

7 ways to
change your
thinking
By Lucas J. Robak
Say the word cancel and your limiting beliefs vanish into nothingness: I wish it were that simple. But, whenever you catch yourself thinking negative thoughts of limiting beliefs, repeat the word
cancel until you are able to introduce a positive thought. Over time,
it becomes easier to change your thinking with just this one word.
2. GRATUITY STONE
There is no need to get fancy here, though you are more than
welcome to if you want. The purpose of the rubber band is to act
as a reminder to be conscientious of your thoughts. When you
notice the rubber band/bracelet, notice what thoughts are in
your mind and correct them as necessary. Constantly be thinking
about thinking; your self-talk produces your whole world.
4. REMINDER NOTES
Also known as autosuggestions, they are phrases stated in the positive present tense that describe who you want to be. These phrases
you repeat hundreds to thousands of times a day to yourself. Many
people even write their top three affirmations three times each in the
morning and three times each before bed. Use emotion and visualize them as true to make them more powerful on the subconscious.
6. STOP WATCHING CERTAIN MEDIA
Youre the average of the five people you hang out with most. If everyone around you is a negative complainer who blames everyone and
makes excuses, you soon will too. Determine who you want to be and
surround yourself with that type of person. This is your life, allow
only those people who will make a positive impact on you into it.
You now have an arsenal of techniques to attack those negative thoughts that have been holding you back. Knowing how
habits are formed, I suggest to take these one at a time and spend
anywhere from a week to a month on each technique before
adding your next choice.
Make it a diamond day!

Should you
get a massage
after an
injury?
Your guide to making
an educated decision
By Rob Reader
A massage therapist
most likely will not
work directly on
the injured area but
will work on the
muscles leading into
the injured area or
connected to the
injured tendons.
concluded that massage is not contraindicated (not recommended) then you can
start getting massage to increase range of
motion and strength in the injured area.
Again, an average wait time of at least three
days after the injury is recommended.
www.naturespathways.com
Hip injuries are as complicated as shoulder injuries. Again, make sure nothing is
broken or torn before seeking massage
treatment. Treating an injured hip involves
working on a lot of various muscles that all
can impact the movement of the leg. These
are muscles in the glutes, the upper thighs
and even in the stomach area. All these
muscles work together to make sure the
legs move properly, so when one muscle
is injured or sprained, the others have to
work harder to keep your leg functioning. With some patience and some time,
a knowledgeable massage therapist should
be able to get you back up and walking
pain free.
Massage is contraindicated for 10 days
after receiving a cortisone shot, so please
inform your massage therapist over the
phone if you have recently had or intend to
receive a cortisone shot. You can still get a
massage, just not in the affected area.
Most massage therapists have also been
trained for scar tissue work. Even with
very old scars, a massage therapist can
help soften the scar tissue and increase its
elasticity. Massage can also decrease the
discoloration and size. It will not make the
scar disappear, but will make it look less
swollen. With new scars, the sooner you
start the work the better. Make sure you
get cleared by the doctor after any surgery
before starting treatment.
I hope this helps you make a more
educated decision when it comes to what
a massage therapist can do to help with
injuries or to help you heal in general.
After your doctor clears you for other
treatments, give your local independent
massage therapist a call and schedule an
appointment right away.
Rob Reader has been a full-time
massage therapist since 2005. He
has worked on headline performers at Summerfest and professional
wrestlers, and has been the official
massage therapist of the Milwaukee Ballet since
2006. He currently works in Mequon at Active Body
Wellness LLC, 10620 N. Port Washington Road. For
more information, call 414-721-6942 or visit activebodywellness.massagetherapy.com.
Active Body Wellness offers holistic pain relief
through several different types of massage. These
include Swedish massage, deep tissue, hot and cold
stone massage, therapeutic massage, Muscle Release
Therapy and Craniosacral Therapy. Their goal is
to have you pain free within as short of time possible
through soft tissue manipulation. See ad on page 39.

Does your
integrity
need a
checkup?
By Carol Michalski, MSW, LCSW
do another?
Remember that integrity is the quality of being honest with yourself and others, and living a life that is aligned with your moral
principles. Developing integrity requires examining your beliefs
and value system, and taking conscious steps to behave in ways
that are consistent with your personal moral code. In the end,
living a life with greater integrity pays off with big dividends, such
as increased self-esteem, confidence and personal power.
Carol Michalski, MSW, LCSW, has her own practice in the unique
Hide House in Bay View, where she provides customized, professional life coaching services to individuals who want to enhance
their lives, careers or relationships! She has been helping people
