September 2010:
Specialty Speaker: Nancy Spencer
Book reading and signing "Heaven In My Hands"
Tuesday, September 14th @ 6:00pm
Every baby is magnificent, beautiful, perfection itself, whose grand entrance into this world is never commonplace.
We are wrapped in a mantle of awe at the beauty around us. But there is one particular experience transcending all others—a baby's first breath, that primal cry of a brand-new human being that's so powerful, so rich, and so pure, it brings instant tears. The cycle of life begins anew—full of expectation, hope, and love.
These are the stories Nancy Spencer shares in Heaven in My Hands. Accept the invitation to laugh and be surprised and inspired as you read some of the most humorous, tender, poignant, and life-altering births Nancy has encountered in her decades-long midwifery practice.

July 2010:
Specialty Speaker: Dr. Andrew Rife
Blood Sugar Management, Weight Loss, and Preventing Metabolic Syndrome
Many folks are trying to lose weight. And some, unfortunately, have also been diagnosed with diabetes, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, or elevated liver enzymes. All of these conditions contribute to the number one cause of mortality in the United States: cardiovascular disease. Currently the medical system treats these conditions as separate issues. What patients and most doctors don't understand is that these conditions are all related and relieved through proper blood sugar management. Additionally, when blood sugar is properly regulated, I see tremendous improvements with anxiety/depression, attention/hyperactivity, insomnia and many other conditions. Please join us as Dr. Rife teaches us how these systems work and what you can do to change your health for the better!!
