It’s always so fun to receive a new podcast, tv series, book, or movie recommendation. When comes to our favorite learning this month, the following podcasts have been great inspiration;
The New Multi Use Space + Finding Balance
Because of the Stay Home-Stay Safe order in Oregon, most of the country, and much of the world, we are now in our homes more then ever using them in many different ways. The kitchen table or the dining room has become the office and the bedroom is a classroom. For studio dwellers, multi-use space has already been a part of their routine. However, without the option of going somewhere else, those walls might seem a bit closer than before.
Here are a few things that can help with balance our new multi use spaces.
Vitalize + COVID
COVID + Chinese Medicine
Anxiety; some treatment options
Cleanliness + Vitalize
From Water To Wood
We are shifting from the Water energy of Winter into the Wood energy of Spring! What does that mean?
Imagine the vital energy of the seed in the Earth - full of potential and nestled into the soil to feel the vibrations around it. There is a song and dance happening. In Winter, we are like the seed-tucking into the depths of more darkness and seeking loved ones during the Holidays for warmth and support and reminders of light and love; letting roots stabilize and grow towards Earth's core and deep water sources.

Wondering why acupuncture leaves you feeling so blissed out?
It is said in Chinese medicine that when there is pain, treat the spirit (i.e. mental-emotional wellbeing) of the patient. Within the scope of acupuncture, this treatment of the spirit is usually accomplished by incorporating points on the Heart channel and/or special points in the ear that help to promote an overall sense of calm and positivity.
Cosmetic Acupuncture
Many of you have asked us lately about cosmetic acupuncture. At Vitalize, we offer two different styles, Mai Zen, and Facial Rejuvenation. Mai Zen is a style of cosmetic acupuncture that one of the Vitalize founders, Ms. Rachel Gilman L.Ac., was trained in shortly after graduating OCOM. When Rach made the leap, and left Vitalize to serve as an acupuncturist at Intel, some in our Vitalize community quickly asked who would be providing this service in her place.
