exhibitors who will change your life forever.
Another exciting event that we were part of was on February 27 as we introduced
GNLD, the only Cellular Nutrition Company which is in over 56 countries, to New

were dazzled by the products and a few even joined the company as they realized
the business potential it has being on the ground floor of a billion dollar company just
coming to New York City. We will be giving another presentation on March 12 and a
free lecture at the Meta Center, 214 West 29th Street at 7pm. Come enjoy be part of

The Now Effect
How This Moment Can Change
the Rest of Your Life
by Elisha Goldtein, PhD
(ATRIA BOOKS)
This book shows us how to alleviate stress, ease
pain, cultivate emotional freedom, create a
healthier brain, and find enlightenment with cutting-edge techniques from The Now Effect. The
psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl
said, “In between stimulus and response there is a
space, in that space lies our power to choose our
response, in our response lies our growth and our
freedom.” In The Now Effect: How This Moment
Can Change the Rest of Your Life (ATRIA BOOKS),
leader in mindfulness psychology Dr. Elisha Goldstein asks: “What if an awareness of that space,
that moment, could change the rest of your life?”
The clarity you find in these spaces is called The
Now Effect.
Research shows that how we pay attention
and what we pay attention to have a dramatic
effect on how our brains grow. When we’re
experiencing sensory overload during our overconnected every-day lives, we often operate on
auto-pilot, allowing our brains to make choices
for us. If we frequently have anxious thoughts,
we strengthen connections in the brain that
facilitate that type of thinking. If we intentionally focus on being present and more compassionate toward ourselves, we create brain
architecture that supports that. Dr. Elisha Goldstein shows us how we can become aware of
automatic thoughts, stop them, and choose to
think in a different direction. Life is decided in
these spaces, or “choice points,” when we can
choose a response.
Awareness of the spaces
opens our minds to possibilities
we may never have thought
existed. To help readers take
the mindfulness approach to
connect to the present moment
one step further, Dr. Elisha
Goldstein offers practical
techniques to make deep, permanent life changes along
with video demonstrations
accessible via Microsoft Tags
throughout the book and at
www.youtube.com/NowEffect.
The e-book includes embedded videos. By using these
techniques for accessing the
Now Effect you will:

• Have access to more choice

• Be more flexible in your decision

• Increase your emotional intelligence and relax more effectively in
moments of distress.
• Focus better at home and at work.
• Open up to feeling more grateful, forgiving, loving, hopeful, empathic, and
compassionate.
• Tap into the wisdom that lies within you and

The Code
Unlocking the Ancient Power
of Your Birthday
by Johanna Paungger & Thomas Poppe
(BEYOND WORDS/ATRIA BOOKS)
For the first time the U.S, the bestselling,
transformative book; The Code: Unlocking
The Ancient Power Of Your Birthday is available
in the United States. Written by bestselling
authors Johanna Paungger and Thomas Poppe,
this book offers a key for opening the lost
treasures and talents hidden deep within us
as revealed through our
unique birthday. The
Code unfolds from the
rhythms of nature and
is part of a much larger
ancient family healing
tradition that can bring
us a deeper connection
to ourselves, others and
the world around us
when utilized.
According to coauthor Johanna Paungger,
“In the early eighties
people started asking me
to pass on knowledge
that I had grown up with
since earliest childhood.
When I started to write
o n l y o n e t h i n g wa s
important to me: If I can
spark just one person’s
interest, then this
ancient knowledge will be kept
alive; knowledge
that had survived
for centuries by
word of mouth.
The most ‘secret’
and esoteric education I received
i s r e ve a l e d i n
The Code. Today,
through many
confirmations of
its validity and benefits reported from people
around the globe, I’m convinced this knowledge
will be of great value in our current times.”
The Code represents a divination system never
before revealed to an American audience,. This
aspect of secret “Celtic” knowledge was passed
down to Johanna from her grandfather and her family of Tyrolean farmers for many generations. This
ancient knowledge was kept hidden for centuries as
her family was aware of potential repercussions
from the church. Johanna (along with her husband
Thomas) are renowned for their knowledge of living
in har-mony with the moon and for practicing and
teaching ancient healing traditions us-ing herbs,
color, movement, bodywork, nutrition, organic
farming and more. The authors have sold more than
14 million books in the German language and millions more in twenty-four other languages.
Going beyond simple numerology or astrology,
The Code is based on each number in your birth
date and reveals how it has its own special meaning and attributes that influence your abilities,
personality, and relationships. By integrating the
power of your birthday numbers with the corresponding colors, the Birthday wheel vividly
shows you how to find balance and harmony , as
well as, unearth your hidden talents, strengths
and weaknesses.
From choosing a career, raising children,
navigating relationships, preventative health
to overall keys to living a fulfilling, healthy
life this unique book and healing system
offers time-tested knowledge that has been in
daily use for centuries and can empower
many readers to effectively and easily navigate their lives.
For more information and a free interactive,
personal birthday Code reading please visit:
www.birthdaycode.com. The Code is available
through Powell’s Books, BN.com, Amazon.com
and with retailers nationwide.
For more information, call 908-637-6022.
Thomas Poppe and Johanna Paungger will be
speaking at the NEWLIFE Expo in New York City,

Nuts About Them!
• Pasta with Chickpeas and Walnuts
• Roasted Spiced Almonds
Almonds and more recently walnuts have
received accolades in the nut family. High in fat
and calories but packed with important health
benefits, all kinds of nuts are sources of super disease-fighting nutrients. What’s in a nut that makes
them so super? They contain antioxidants, protein, fiber, and mono-and polyunsaturated oils.
Research has shown that eating 2.5 ounces of any
kind of nuts daily has lowered LDL – the “lousy”
cholesterol and cardiovascular risk can be
reduced by up to 74% if nuts are only consumed
several times a week.
Worried about their high fat content? Relax. It
increases one’s satiety, helps your meals to keep
you filled a little longer and keeps you from snacking as often. A helpful guide is a handful of nuts
– an appropriate portion to eat. And while you’re
at it stick to raw nuts that have nothing on them.
This allows the oils to stay the freshest and give
you the most benefit.
Keep a homemade nut jar mix on your office
desk and kitchen counter. Become familiar with
the varieties of nuts available.
ALMONDS: High in fiber, a rich source of
vitamin E, high in protein and rich in essential
amino acids.
PECANS: Like all the nuts, pecans are a good
source of protein and unsaturated fats, and are
especially rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Easy to
use in desserts, cereals, and breads they are
also terrific in salads and main dishes, and as
a snack.
BRAZIL NUTS: Brazil nuts are a good source of
many vitamins including thiamin, and E and
the minerals calcium, magnesium, phosphorus,
copper, manganese and one of the richest
sources of selenium. Buy
small amount of Brazil
nuts as they can turn rancid quickly due to their
high polyunsaturated fat
content.
CASHEWS: It is one of the
easiest nuts to make into nut
milk. Use for snacking, and
crunch in salads and desserts.
MACADAMIAS: Macademia’s have the highest amount
of beneficial monounsaturated
fats of any nut, as well as all the
other valuable attributes that
nuts have.
WALNUTS: Raw walnuts
contain alpha-linolenic acid
(ALA), Omgea-3 fatty acids

The Mysticism
of Our Times
M
By Thomas Hübl
ODERN MYSTICISM always carries Timeless
Wisdom within but it also acknowledges that outer
life develops. God (or sacred space / mystic depth
dimension) needs a place again in society. If we give
this a priority, everything else will follow: an economy, science, political program and education that are
aligned with it.
What does a modern path beyond traditional God
images look like and which path unites the power of the
traditions with the evolution of life?
In the postmodern market place we are faced with
complex global topics of rapid development. We need
new prospects in order to creatively deal with such
demands. As it is only when we are in touch with life on
more profound levels that we will receive answers to
generic questions.
THOUSANDS OF YEARS
OF KNOWLEDGE EVERY MOMENT
Mysticism is the radical path of awakening through
all times and in all market places. That is why we call
it Timeless Wisdom: it is independent of the face of
time. Thousands of years of knowledge can be found
in the wisdom traditions. We see an inner core of
principles and awakening, and an outer casing of culture that forms around it. In all world religions like
Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, Taoism there is an
inner practice of Timeless Wisdom. When we understand it more deeply we will see that there are similar
principles everywhere, that it contains a deep consciousness aspect that is always present. These principles of development of souls and enlightenment can
be found in every tradition.

MYSTICISM AS FULL-TIME JOB
R
ECOGNIZING the depth dimension of reality is the great
endeavor of all times. But only those who place this alignment
in the center of their lives can achieve this. When life shapes itself
from this basis, we will lead an awakened life.
The mystic practice is a practice of mindfulness, presence,
compassion, love and clarity. We begin to practice in every life
situation: walking on the street, in relationship, at work, when sitting down and taking time to just listen to the deeper aspect of
ourselves.
Most people need a regular practice of meditation or praying, and
of course a practice of mindfulness in everyday life, in order to
achieve a deeper inner alignment to God / the Light within us. If we
strengthen this daily, this part will be more and more present in our
reality. For some people this happens very spontaneously. For other
people it is a steady process of growth throughout the years.
A competent teacher, a practice, a community of people help us
to naturally place God, the Essence, Timeless Wisdom in the center
of our life.
UNDERSTANDING REALITY
M
YSTICS deepen this inner science in such a way, that they
learn to understand the reality more deeply from looking
within. A by-product of this are skills like seeing people more
deeply, anticipating situations, acting in a way that originates in
wisdom and spontaneity as opposed to conditioned, learned patterns. All this means more intuition, insight, and freedom.
Mysticism appears ‚mysterious’ because we see what we usually
do not perceive. The mystic dimension is just the dimension in
which we happen without knowing that we happen in it. That is
why it is mysterious and draws skills forward that often appear wonderful to us.
14 NEWLIFE
MARCH-APRIL 2012
BELIEVING IN GOD? NO, KNOWING!
M
YSTICISM is only peripherally connected to faith. When we
speak of mysticism we speak of entrusting ourselves to practice
and engaging in an experiment of consciousness. And this experiment will bring us experiences. The person who experiences does not
need to believe in anything. Mysticism is beyond “I believe in God“
or “I don’t“. The idea is to devote ourselves to a practice that aligns us
in such a way that we see the effects in our reality and that these
effects cannot be denied. Thus there will be a point in time at which
we simply know deep within. Not only rationally but in our hearts.
Contemporary mysticism no longer holds to traditional God images
but opens an evolutionary step. It reaches rational and scientifically educated people in a way that they do not experience as regression but as
progress. This mysticism also has answers to today’s questions in economics, technology, global problems etc. and consciously connects.
STUMBLING STONES IN THE FLOW OF LIFE: HABITS
T
HE true mystics of all times were and are radical people.
Mysticism challenges habits, so that we stay in the flow of evolution. Habits are opposed to the evolutionary flow: we form them,
identify with them and would love to anchor them in this way. But
life is permanent movement and puts up pressure in order to develop us further. If we don’t do this, tensions, symptoms and also illnesses occur. If we evolve further expansion happens and we are in
flow. It is essential to learn this alignment in order to be able to
transform into a sustainable global society.
Thomas Hubl is a trans-lineage integral spiritual teacher. He
teaches contemporary mysticism and the fusion of meditation and
sciences. He will be speaking at the NewLife Expo in New York City,
March 23-25.

Institute, working on the front lines of disease reversal and
life prolonging with pure organic and plant-based methods,
a vivid pattern of cause and effect has emerged. There is a
continual and perfect communication from cell to cell and
from gathering of cells (organs and / or skeletal) to gathering
of cells. This rhythmic and energetic process is strong, yet
fragile. This process can be weakened via poor nutrition,
dehydration and / or polluted hydration, lack of oxygen,
intake of heavy metals or chemicals or renegade electromagnetic fields such as cell phones, Wi-Fi, etc.
All abnormalities that have been labeled as diseases stem
from the negative energies that are rooted in the poor
lifestyle choices and unsustainable environment we have
created on planet earth today.
Our core vulnerability stems from the reduction of bio-frequency that occurs in the cell, which heightens its fragility to
make it ineffective in communication and contribution.
When these disturbances are critical, they can even cause a
cell to mutate.
When you ingest ionized, rich, raw plant-based foods, it
provides foundational energy. You then have to consider
avoiding negative energy fields or at least protecting yourself from them with electromagnetic field interrupting
devices or tools.
What is more difficult to avoid and personally restrain
from is the negative energy that we absorb or spew from discontented emotional states. With a discombobulated sense
of self, most people are sponges rather than water hoses,
stealing energy from all other forms of life. All bad effects of
these encounters can be minimized if you maintain a strong
electrical current in your cells, manifesting a powerful anatomy and persona. Just as an electric fence rejects the unwant-
ed invaders of a terrain, an electrically charged person can
ward off disease and fallibility of thought.
Picture all that you see, understand, touch, and feel as
little dots of electricity. The shapes, forms, and lives are created by energy. This energy comes in the form of these electric dots.
As when a light bulb fades, susceptibility to disorder rises.
In the case of steel, it is oxygen that erodes it into rust. In the
case of humans, it is negative thought and sustenance as
well as environmental toxins.
In the not-so-distant future, there is no doubt that sound,
light and energy will be harnessed in medical technology at
such a level, it will penetrate your electric body and eradicate the core culprit in the cause of physical disease.
Let’s tune ourselves with proper nutrients, positive
thoughts, rewarding relationships, healthy living and work
environments, and fulfilling activities. When we listen to a
fine Mozart concerto, witness the crashing waves or gaze up
at the endless stars, harmony will once again prevail.
Commit yourself to the invisible cells reconstruction and
you will be assured a future of conscious well-being and
abounding joy.

awakening your
genuine
consciousness
By Sirve
Y
ou are about to enter into the hidden
part of deep knowledge of Sacred
Rituals known as Tibetan Rites.
Millions of people worldwide have been
benefiting decades from the amazing
rejuvenating results from 5 Tibetan Rites. The
mystical effects of these Tibetan techniques were
first revealed in the 1930’s when it was detailed
in Peter Kelder’s book “Ancient Secret of the
Fountain of Youth.”
Now there are an exciting 6 additional
esoteric Rites available to the public for the first
time from the same source, the Lamasery that
existed in Tibet. The Monastery where many
people arrived old and become young.
This unique material was given by Master
Goswami Sunyata Saraswati, disciple of
Paramahansa Yogananda who gave him the
“transmission” of grace. He is The Tantric Kriya
Yoga lineage Holder and the author of the book “
Jewel in The Lotus”.
The 11 Rites materials belonged originally to
the Gnostic Brothers whose leader was Samael
Aun Weor. a magnificent genuine human being
with awakened consciousness. His lifework had
an infinite effect on mankind. Samael Aun Weor
was born in Colombia, developed his public
activities in Mexico until 1977. After acquiring
the Philosopher’s Stone, he went on to work in
an occult manner with his immortal physical
body, as it corresponds to everyone who has
accomplished the Great Work in Himself.
As a legitimate Avatar of the Aquarian Age and
Grand Master of Occult Wisdom, he has
unveiled the Esoteric Arcanes and Mysteries in
more than 60 works on Psychology,
Anthropology, Alchemy, Practical Magic,
Kundalini Yoga, Kabbalah, etc., which are always
oriented toward the Radical and Definite
Transformation of the Human Being.
16 NEWLIFE
MARCH-APRIL 2012
An interesting fact is also that in his
autobiographical account, “The Three Mountains”,
Samael Aun Weor stated that because he was born
with an awakened consciousness, he was able to
analyze the previous lives even before he mastered
how to walk! In one of His previous lives he was a
Tibetan Lama and practiced these Rites of
Rejuvenation in that reincarnation in the Lamasery.
His legacy can therefore teach us the real
knowledge and secrets of the Rites with authority.
He used to say that “Time does not exist, time
is an invention of the egotistical mind. Age does
not exist. It is a mere crutch that people lean
heavily on. What does exist is cellular
mechanics. By practicing the Rites, new cells are
born to replace the old cells that die due to
erroneous processes of assimilation, etc. The rate
of such replacements decreases because of us
wasting our energies foolishly and so, so-called
old age arrives at our doorsteps.”
The 11 Tibetan Rites teaches the methods and
techniques that can put us on the path to
complete regeneration. It gives us the answers to
many questions by allowing us to investigate
through direct experience.
The Rites take us on a magical life journey with
real meaningfulness and with the highest joy. They
are so powerful that they can transform your body
to its perfect condition. Through practice there is a
key to access to the universal mind.
If you focus only on the physical aspect while
performing these sacred rites it will be just
another physical workout leading toward
oxidation and aging. By using the Lama’s secret
approach of synthesizing your spirit, mind,
emotions, aura field and body you begin to
vibrate on a level where you can reach your
maximum potential. This is something which is
not explained in any of the previous writings
and will be explored more in depth as I explain
one of the rites.
Add light and vibrational pulse when you
practice each Rite; Become lighter by focusing
your being, intention, thoughts, words and actions
toward lifting your vibration. This starts to transform
and change your DNA, cells, organs, endocrine
systems and the speed of your chakras so that they
can act with their highest potency. Every cell in
your body has consciousness and responds to light.
The goal in practicing the Tibetan Rites is to
purify the astral substance, clear and raise the
vibration of the etheric and physical bodies and
incarnate more of the light body and get its
structures and energy centers balanced and
functioning properly. Through this, the spirit is
able to interact highly with your physical matter.
The first Rite of all The Tibetan Rites is Spinning,
which raises and enhances all frequencies in your
entire being and expands your aura field.

Rite # 1 – SPINNING
3/19/12
4:47 PM
Stand erect with arms outstretched horizontal
to the floor, palms facing down. Your arms
should be in line with your shoulders. Spin
around clockwise until you become slightly
dizzy. Gradually increase number of spins from
1 spin to 21 spins.
Breathing: Inhale and exhale deeply as you
do the spins.
The esoteric benefit:
What happens in your physical body:
• All your blood rushes to the peripheral areas
of the body and when you stop, your blood
rushes back into the center. This high speed
flow gives all of your organs an extreme
wake-up call.
• Your heart starts to beat faster and the
enhanced blood flow cleanses the blood
vessels.
Page 17
• Your metabolism gets its peak performance..
• Your energy channels (nadis) open.
• Water molecules in every cell in your body
begin vibrating on a greater level, including
the DNA.
• Negative vibrations lose hold and are no
longer part of your being and you are able to
carry a higher vibrational light.
While performing the rites it is very important
to visualize the brightest and most intense white
light (like a laser beam) emanating out from your
whole being all the time
By practicing The Tibetan Rites and uplifting
your vibration, the more expansive your
consciousness will become and you will view
life as never before---You will step into the
journey of miracles in each moment.
Sirve, a Reiki Master and an anti-aging expert,
has been teaching the esoteric approach for
these rites for eleven years throughout the world.

HOW
TO
AVOID
Yoga Injuries
By Shelley Stendig
T
he positive effects of yoga are widely accepted.
Modern science can, in fact, quantify these benefits,
such as increased flexibility, improved strength, better
posture, positive mood, reduced stress levels, and –the widely desired – weight loss.
Recently, however, there has been an increase in the dialogue about the other side of the coin: injuries that may be
incurred while practicing yoga. But before you allow yourself to be scared away and miss out on all the benefits, here
are some ways to determine your personal level of risk
before stepping onto the mat.
GAIN PERSPECTIVE
Practicing the asana (posture) aspect of yoga is a physical
activity that requires the same level of awareness regarding the
body’s capability as when engaging in
any other type of athletic endeavor,
such as running or soccer. Just as you
should not attempt a marathon when
first starting to run, pushing the body
into the full, or advanced stages of a
pose can be detrimental. To be safe,
adhere to your body’s natural limits and
avoid overstretching, which means
moving past the point of first resistance
when performing a pose. If you heed
your body’s signals, your risk factor for
injury is far less than many regular daily
activities such as driving a car!
BE EVALUATED BY A
PROFESSIONAL BODY WORKER
The increasingly stationary lifestyle
brought on by desk jobs, long commuting hours and pastime channel/internet
surfing has significantly decreased the
flexibility of our hips, hamstrings, knees and spine. Therefore, just
as it is common to do an evaluation session with a trainer at the
gym before building a workout routine, if you’re intent on developing or enhancing your yoga practice let a body worker and an
experienced yoga therapist evaluate your body’s capabilities.
Shmuel Tatz, a New York City physical therapist who specializes in treating yoga practitioners, says, “In yoga practice we are trying to go to the maximum of our personal
mobility. To help evaluate and increase a person’s ability to
do so, I first check for limitation in the passive movement of
the joints (the joint’s natural stopping point), then in the
accessory movement (bending the joint slightly past it’s natural stopping point, to its maximum potential), and lastly
the in-joint movement (moving the joint side to side to
assess lateral range). Afterwards, I help restore proper range,
18 NEWLIFE
MARCH-APRIL 2012
as well as correct any misalignment in the body, by manually manipulating the ligaments, tendons, and muscles.
“If a patient is experiencing pain or discomfort when
doing a particular pose, I need to go in and assess what is
happening on a deeper level in the body to properly address
the issue. For example, a common yoga-related injury is pain
in the psoas muscle that attaches to the hamstring. This stems
from the tendon of the hamstring being overworked from
postures like seated forward fold, or intense side stretch pose
that cause inflammation. To treat this, I need to work manually by stabilizing the sacroiliac joint that connects the
sacrum and ileum in the lower back, while rotating the hip
gently through a full 360∞ rotation. After this, I supplement
with modalities such as laser, ultrasound, magnetic or vibrational therapy, to cure the inflammation.
“It is important to recognize the
strains yoga can put on our bodies –
even if we are reaping a lot of benefit in
other areas – and address issues that
come up before they escalate into
chronic, more severe problems.”
KNOW YOUR HEALTH HISTORY
Everyone who attempts yoga brings
to the mat with them their specific
genetic inheritance and health history.
Therefore, Dr. Tatz recommends that if
you suffer from any conditions such as
glaucoma, osteoporosis, or herniated
disks in the spine, avoid postures that put
great strain on the muscular and vascular structure, particularly headstand,
shoulder stand, and plow. It is a good
idea to, again, consult a professional
health provider if you suffer from, or are
predisposed to, health conditions.
A SMILE CAN HELP CLARIFY YOUR BOUNDARIES
Practicing honest yoga means being fully attuned to and
respectful of your body and its natural limits. As the definition of Asana states: “sthira-sukham-asanam” – steady and
comfortable – meaning, you should be able to hold the final
pose with a genuine smile. If you have developed an injury,
or exacerbated a pre-existing condition, and have received
proper treatment, yoga can teach you the patience and
understanding that will allow you to “hear” your boundaries
clearly and avoid further damage.
Shelley Stendig has traveled to Africa twice to volunteer with
various aid and health related organizations. More recently,
she has shifted her focus towards individual health care.

T IS SAID that the main purpose of Pranayama (conscious control of the Prana
or Vital Life Force, the breathing exercises) as a Sadhana or spiritual practice is
to awaken the Divine Cosmic Power. This power, known as Kundalini, is conceived of as a sleeping coiled serpent that lies dormant at the base of the spine,
the Muladhara, Basal or First Chakra region. Through steady application of specific yogic techniques, this power is made to travel up the spine, penetrating all
the Major Chakras in its path, eventually reaching the highest Chakra –

the Sahasrara just above the physical skull,
where it unites with the Supreme Soul. As
soon as the Major Chakras are pierced by
Kundalini, the ordinary consciousness is
raised to a specific state of consciousness.
Until one’s consciousness evolves to the point
of the Vishuddha or Fifth Chakra opening and
activating, the consciousness always moves
between Chakras as a result of one’s deeds
from the past and what one is currently passing through. Once one’s consciousness arrives
at the Fifth Chakra, it never descends again.
While there is a relationship between the
Glandular System and the Major Chakras,
the Chakras are truly part of the Subtle or
Psychic Anatomy. Only those blessed with
psychic powers or abilities can actually see
them, not even the most powerful electron
microscope can actively engaging the powers of the imagination to grasp what they
truly are, and then to use this knowledge to
help make real progress in yoga.
The Major Chakras and
their Stateof Consciousness
from the Base of the Spine to the
Crown of the Head and Beyond
the First Chakra
MULADHARA
(located between the legs)
At this level, an individual acts in darkness
and views the world in a very cruel and materialistic way. Lacking the discrimination to tell
Page 20
right from wrong, the individual hurts himself
and others. In this state, the Divine Energy is at
its lowest degree of strength. Imagine a caveman; someone so primitive that they are only
concerned with the most basic acts of survival.
Their responses to the outer world are painted
only with the broadest of brushstrokes as in fear,
anger, joy, etc. Although we all pass through
this state of consciousness as young children,
most move beyond as they age and evolve.
the Second Chakra
SVADHISHTHANA
(located by sexual organs)
Here one thinks only that the world is
brought about by the union of male and
female -- that sex is the basis of everything.
Holding such a view, this poor soul endowed
with little understanding wastes all its semen
and sexual power in vain, sympathetically
slowing its down spiritual progress. An individual lost in this state is easily hooked on sex,
and it is hard for them to ever really break free.
The more one’s cravings are satisfied, the larger they grow and the faster they multiplyOf
course, when exercised properly, with moderation and without attachment, then the suffering inherent in this state is lessened.
the Third Chakra
MANIPURA
(located below the navel)
In this state, one seeks for power and
achievement. Here one works hard for

name, fame and position – even their religious observances are related to these aims,
giving rise to arrogance. Ostentation, rudeness, etc.: “Striving hard only to amass
wealth for the satisfaction of their passion,
one saysMotivated by selfish actions, one
offers sacrifices, gives and rejoices.
the Fourth Chakra
ANAHATA
(located by the heart)
At this level, one begins to transcend the
ordinary human emotions partially
described above. One acts with pure resolve
and with conscience. Ordinary love is now
constantly being transformed into compassion, and it purifies the mind and heart,
increasing spiritual perception. This may be
the beginning of the end of sin.
the Fifth Chakra
VISHUDDHA
(located by the throat)
Here one strives hard for spiritual fulfillment. Virtues such as self-denial, self-control, austerity, steadfastness, uprightness,
renunciation, dedication, truthfulness and
tranquility are highly cultivated. This may be
the end of sin.
the Sixth Chakra
AJNA
(located by the forehead – third eye)
Here, after long and painful spiritual practices such as self-purification, the mind,
heart and intellect are purified and the consciousness is expanded to the level of Divine
Perception. One sees the Spiritual World or
has a complete vision of God.
the Seventh Chakra
SAHASRARA
(located at the top of the head)
This is the end of the journey, one returns
home again. As the air from a bubble
becomes one with the ocean of air around it
after bursting, so here pure consciousness,
existence and bliss are freed from their veil
or bubble (ego, individuality, perception of
duality, Maya) and become one with the
homogeneous Mass of Existence, Complete
Knowledge or Bliss Absolute.
What else is there to say? Observe the fullness of Yama and Niyama (the ethical rules
and observances of yoga), do your practice
no matter what, be kind to everyone, harbor
no ill feelings for your fellow man and make
every action an act of adoration to the
Supreme Self or God. Then the essence of
the Chakras will reveal itself to you and you
will achieve perfect success in yoga.

most profitable industry in the world.
Nothing is going to change this.
The Father of Modern Day Medicine,
Hippocrates, also taught that: “A proper
lifestyle and nutritional evaluation represents half the cure.” Modern day medicine has ceased to consider the founding principles of Father Hippocrates.
The standard dogmas of the American
Medical Association from the 1950’s
has never been retracted that “nutrition
has no significance in the treating or
prevention of disease.”
We alternative practitioners believe
differently. We believe, as Father
Hippocrates did, that every named
medical and psychotic condition is a
sign of a long term nutritional deficiency that was either ignored, or worse,
suppressed into submission with a drug.
There may be a place for drugging but,
should every symptom be drugged into

has become known as standard care.

When we twist language, we twist meaning and truth.
What does the word, “Primary” mean?
In plain English, doesn’t it mean first? What
then is primary care in the U.S.?” If it is not
drugs, pharmaceuticals and surgery, does
this make any sense to a thinking person?
Granted, even if there is a place for this
form of medicine, shouldn’t it be our last
resort, rather than our primary?
Hippocrates, the Father
of Medicine, Said:
“An Ounce of Prevention is
Worth a Pound of Cures.”
Here’s the problem. Big Pharma, when
it talks about prevention, wellness
check-ups and health care, they’re not
really talking the same language. What
are they talking about? Horrifying flu
shots, Cat Scans that emit so-called
immunizations, deleterious drugs, mammograms, biopsies, and other health
endangering procedures. Most of these
procedures have never been proven
either safe or effective.
Prevention always begins with the alternative and naturopathic doctor, the same
way it did 2,300 years ago with
22 NEWLIFE
MARCH-APRIL 2012
Page 22
Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine. It
begins with a proper, in depth, lifestyle and
nutrition evaluation. Father Hippocrates
taught that prevention represented half
the cure. The only difference between
Hippocrates and the modern day alternative medicine doctor is that we now
have available to us the technology to
detect metabolic, nutritional and hormonal imbalances through the blood
and we have the computer technology
to cross correlate laboratory blood, hair
and saliva analysis with every symptom
you’ve ever experienced, and then
design a personalized nutrition and
lifestyle program based on your individual bio-chemistry.
Our modern day laboratory sciences
are ten years ahead of the everyday practice of orthodox drug medicine. It is no
longer necessary to wait for an official
diagnosis to begin treating a named medical condition. The technology is now
available to uncover pre-cursors to disease years in advance of the diagnosis.
For years, our true scientists, (not on Big
Pharma payrolls) have been telling us that
most degenerative diseases are preventable. This is now a fact. The laboratory
technology is available to detect the pre-
cursor to diabetes, heart disease, inflammatory disease, immune diseases, stroke,
Alzheimer’s and much more, not just
months, but years in advance. In effect,
this means preventing the diagnosis from
ever being rendered. This is truly the new
age of medicine.
Conclusion
As King Solomon said, “There is a place
and a time for everything under heaven.” If
you’re taken into the emergency room,
you have no choice. Be thankful such professionals exist. For the rest of us, the starting place to a high state of health and
wellness begins with nutritional testing
and personal health and lifestyle evaluation to determine your detoxification,
metabolic, fitness and nutritional, hormonal needs, based on your individual
bio-chemistry.

MARCH-APRIL 2012
I have practiced nutritional, preventive routine dentistry for over 30 years. My main goal is to save my
patients’ teeth for the rest of their lives in a relaxed
atmosphere.
There have always been alternative, non-toxic dental
materials instead of those containing mercury, nickel
and aluminum. The safe protocol for necessary dental
mercury removal is strictly followed.
To prevent the development of loose teeth or
orthodontic relapses, I treat noxious oral habits
like tooth clenching, tongue-thrustng or night grinding
of teeth, which may cause headaches (TM Joint
Syndrome). All local and systemic causes of dental diseases are investigated carefully and non-surgical, nondrug treatments are planned.

DR. JOSEPH SHAPIRO
20/20 Sight is not perfect. Eyeglasses and sightimprovement techniques (i.e., Bates) are not always the
answer. Vision is a total body process. A sophisticated
visual analysis requires 21 different tests to determine
your unique visual pattern.
Most eye exams lead only to a prescription for glasses which reinforces visual weakness and may not
uncover more fundamental visual problems, which may
result in the following symptoms: eyestrain, fatigue, discomfort with your glasses or contact lenses, oversensitivity to light, short attention span, inability to concentrate, general nervousness and tension, headaches,
blurry or double vision, poor reading skills, and academic underachievement, coordination difficulties, the
need to rub your eyes, and permanent squint or frown.
I will analyze your vision and prescribe special lenses and/or daily eye exercise to rid you of your symptoms
and make your everyday life more comfortable. In addi-
tion, I am the only optometrist in Manhattan who practices Photoretinology, i.e., the branch of ocular science
that uses varying light frequency therapy.
Due to Dr. Shapiro’s perspective and pioneering efforts
in the field of vision therapy, he is well-received in both
holistic and traditional medical circles. He practiced in one
of the first holistic centers in New York City, Served as a
staff member of the Chiefs of Ophthalmology of
Manhattan Eye and Ear and Lenox Hill Hospitals, and
served as astaff member and clinical supervisor at the
New York Light House Low Vision Service. He has done

Sexual dysfunction & lower back problems are connected and treatable. My therapy addresses all of
you. There are no two people exactly a like. Given
your uniqueness the body has a way of mapping out
your history. I design a healing strategy that is programmed specifically just for you. It is as individual
and unique as your finger print. The process is alive,
renewing itself from moment to moment. I use many
techniques accordingly. Most of them I developed
through researching a solution for clients that would
otherwise undergo surgery or medication.
TESTIMONIALS:
• “Ronit can really ‘see’ what the person needs to
help him/her. I have a history of congenital heart
problems. Her treatment provides a tremendous
energy release, both circulatory and sexual. She
made me able to feel again.” (J.H., lawyer)
• “The rhythmic movements of her hands are mysterious and have a special quality that bore deep
into the depth of the patient’s body & soul,
awakening the wellsprings of life anew.”
• “Ronit’s treatment does not fit into the framework of all other known types of treatments.”
(Moshe Poul Openhimer, specialist in breathing,
massage and gymnastics.)

My approach to psychotherapy synthesizes holistic,
spiritual, and psychoanalytic modes of understanding
and working. The therapeutic relationship is a safe
context for emotional healing and developing greater
self awareness. I help my clients deal with current
difficulties and feelings, release "old pain" to allow
the natural growth process to proceed, change
dysfunctional patterns which block fulfillment, and
empower themselves through awareness and choice.
Many years of spiritual practice and explorations
in spirituality and holistic health contribute to my
perspective. I encourage the development of spiritual
health, a deep sense of connectedness through the core
of your being to the larger whole.

Feeling overwhelmed?
Having trouble with work? With relationships? With loss?
Or perhaps you simply feel unable to get what you need.
When you are in a struggle with yourself, it can blur everything else. Your life may seem painful, lonely and scary.
Don't be alone with your problems.
Talking with an insightful, spiritually-attuned psychotherapist can help. Together we can explore, understand, and work with what has been troubling you.
Gaining perspective this way can give you a stronger
sense of yourself personally, and out in the world. And it
can help you discover your own unique evolutionary path.
I am a holistic psychotherapist who has been
practicing for over 20 years. My institute training left me
well versed in many therapeutic modalities. I have also
studied the Tao, Buddhism and various forms of
healing. But most important is that I am an experienced
listener who is attuned to both psychodynamics
and spirituality.
Successful psychotherapy begins with a trusting
relationship. The initial consultation is free. Please feel
