Top Left: Your friendly conference staff included two faculty advisors who are CCNH alumna, and several massage therapists, medical doctors, nurses and chiropractors. You might say that we were ready for anything! Here’s a Natural Reader Note from one of our bookstore employees who particularly enjoyed Jane Patton’s yoga and pilates classes: “Pilates supports and amplifies the body’s ‘power center.’ Its benefits include creating a tall, open posture with elongated lower body muscles for greater strength, agility and grace.” Top Right: Faculty advisor Bree Garrett and admissions advisor Lois Donnelly, D.C. share a giggle during our conference’s annual book-signing. Bree Garrett’s Natural Reader Note: “Ellen Tart Jensen’s session on Nutrition and the Environment gave great information on how to take care of our soil, reminding us that some children don’t realize that certain foods actually grow under the soil.” Bottom Left: Conference headliner Rudolph Ballentine, M.D., gave a keynote address from his book, Radical Healing, and his second topic was “Healing the Self, Healing the Earth.” Ballentine’s Natural Reader Note: “Plants are brilliant, and we know that they have all kinds of tricks up their sleeves. Humans are relatively illiterate, walking through a plant library. The plants and trees contain all intelligence. Here, we are learning the medicine of the future. We are going beyond, to resonate with spiritual truths.” Bottom Right: Conference headliner Elson Haas, M.D., gave a keynote address from his book, Staying Healthy with Nutrition and his second topic was “Diet, Digestion and Detoxification.” Haas’ Natural Reader Note: “Practitioners must learn how to be with others and, just as importantly, learn how to be alone.” |
