Ayurveda Consultations

Belinda was very helpful in educating me on the Ayurvedic doshas and body types when I contacted her regarding several health issues in my family. She gave me diet guides and many suggestions as to what foods to try to negate some of the symptoms. She also suggested natural herbs and remedies for both a skin rash and cholesterol which I was able to purchase at a local health food store. I am hoping that the combination of foods and herbs will ease the symptoms. I feel much better trying natural remedies rather than prescription drugs.

Ayurvedic Lifestyle Program

This program was extremely educational. I have told all my friends about how excited I am to come to class each week. I can’t remember the last time I was so fully engaged, excited and fascinated in a class! Loved it!... Diagnosing the doshas, food, emotional clearing; everything was so great!... By far, this was the clearest, most concise, professional, and easily digestible series I’ve ever taken. I’ve been discussing and recommending this. - Annie, MA

It is highly likely that I will apply these tips/techniques into my daily life. I am already employing many; including food, 6 tastes, meditation and emotional clearing. Fabulous. Trying now to incorporate the non-violent communication techniques... The workshop met my expectations. I was not sure what to expect, actually exceeded expectations. I did not think I’d have as much take away that I would want to follow up on... I took something away from each lesson. - Sarah, MA

Loved the extras – food tasting, scents, teas, etc! All great add ons to class material...I enjoyed each presentation very much. I can’t think of anything else to add; a great course!...I am very likely to incorporate some of the lifestyle tips/techniques into my daily life. - Karin, MA

Polarity Therapy

I visited Wellness As A Way of Life for 3 Polarity Sessions. My sister is a Polarity Therapist, so I have had MANY sessions in the past from her. In fact, while my sister was in school, I received almost all of her practice hours and learned a ton about how Polarity works, as well as its healing powers. However, my sessions with Belinda were on a whole new level I have never experienced with other therapists. Belinda not only heals your body, but also taps into your consciousness to deepen your healing throughout your session. Polarity is an amazing method for ANY type of healing. I went to her for my knee after I had surgery and it wasn't healing properly, but I also had 2 Polarity treatments for mental well-being after experiencing a death in the family. When leaving her sessions, I felt calm and free of pain both physically and emotionally. I was also provided insight on how to continue feeling that way through counseling from her. I highly recommend anyone in any kind of pain to go for a Polarity session.

“Having experienced many different modalities of holistic healing and alternative therapies, I was drawn to Polarity as a modality I had not yet tried.  After one session with Belinda, I knew that this form of healing was different.  It was the first experience I have had that really encompassed and addressed multi-levels of healing simultaneously; from the cellular/physical level to the emotional, to the spiritual, to the layers of our being that are connected with the universal consciousness.  I feel like I come out of each session “sparkly” and centered and more in touch with what areas of myself need to be addressed further in order to reach the highest level of functioning…in order to thrive.  Polarity yoga has been helpful too, in relieving headaches and stress.”

“When I first began Polarity, I was going thru a very difficult time in my life.  I was suffering from chronic insomnia, depressed and constantly in a state of indecision and confusion.  By the time I met Belinda I was desperate!  Polarity has changed my life!  I no longer suffer from insomnia, and I have an inner peace that I have never known.”

“I have been receiving polarity therapy from Belinda for a couple of years and every time I find the experience to be truly remarkable!  It provides me with the opportunity to be very present, centered and relaxed during the session.  Opening personal energy in this way leaves me in a state of incredible calmness, mindfulness with tremendous positive energy!”

In May of 2008 I went to Belinda completely beside myself due to an old back injury that had flared up and was causing me so much pain and stiffness that I could barely move, even sleep was painful as I would stiffen up even more during the night. Some nights I would wake in the middle of the night crying with pain. I was and am a very active person that refused to believe I could not go out everyday either running, biking or working out. As the stress of not being able to exercise got greater my back pain became worse. Finally, and thankfully, I met Belinda and decided to try Polarity and Tong Ren Therapy. At my first polarity session I was not sure what to expect. The session started and a wave of calm came over me that I had not experienced in a long time. My body felt relaxed yet alive and energized. She then started the Tong Ren therapy concentrating specifically on my lower back, all of a sudden I felt this surge of energy and warmth. Right at the point where my back was feeling the stiffest I started to feel a tingling sensation, it was the most unusual feeling, it was like tiny waves of energy massaging the exact spot that was the most painful. When the session was over I could not believe how much better I felt. The pain had subsided tremendously and I knew that I was finally on my way to recovery. Over the next two weeks I went to Belinda for Tong Ren Therapy sessions. Each time I would feel a great tingling sensation, it was like a ton of energy was being directed right to the spot which had been causing me such pain and stiffness. After each session I felt better and better. My range of motion and mobility came back. All of the stress I think I was holding in my lower back started to melt away. I was finally able to get back to working out and even able to go on a charity bike ride of 220 miles!!! The Tong Ren therapy enabled me to get back to the active lifestyle I really love.

I really enjoyed my treatment with Belinda. I could feel lots of energy through her hot hands and in all my body; even with the crystals. After I felt very light and I slept very well even with the full moon. The past life work we did together was very interesting and helpful, although I didn't know what would happen. I feel very good and very peaceful. Thank you again for your kindness and for this delightful moment spent together. I will recommend you to my friends and I will surely come back.

Tong Ren Therapy

TONG REN Treatment for Emphysema, Lung, Arthritis 9/1/08

"I don’t know how it works or what Belinda is doing, however, at a certain point in the session my breath becomes easy; I can breathe through my nose again.  As soon as the session begins I become very relaxed and calm.  During the session I feel warmth and tingling as the energy moves around my body as she is tapping; in my chest, my legs, arms, all over.  This work makes me feel better!"

TONG REN Treatment for Weight Loss: Date: 8/29/08

" It seemed as though with each passing decade of my life came 10 pounds. By the time I reached 50 I was 30 pounds over weight, it affected my mood, my day, and how I felt socially. I cringed every time I bumped into someone that I had not seen in a long time.

I tried on and off to loose weight by walking regularly, trying not to eat this or that, the mornings always seemed to go so well, I was even optimistic come lunch time. But once I opened that front door at the end of the day all of my effort would fall by the wayside. I would pick and snack right thru to supper. I craved salt chips and peanuts cheese and crackers.

I tried to accept my weight for what it was but really never could. I felt defeated and hopeless. I had been attending Polarity sessions with Belinda for quite some time when she introduced me to Tong Ren healing. I asked will it help with weight re-deduction and she told me about success with another client. I started with 5 sessions. I love the feeling that comes over me with energy tapping. I often times feel warm, tingling and my arms and legs can feel slightly heavy. I have since scheduled additional sessions, usually in the morning, so that I can relax and start out my day on a positive note.

Over a period of 6-8 weeks I have lost 11 pounds. My cravings and preoccupation with food have diminished. I feel confident that this time I will be successful, and that anything is possible. The Defeat I was experiencing has been replaced with confidence and hope. "

Polarity Yoga

How is it that children just seem to get it………?

“I had a great time learning polarity yoga.  My favorite position was “happy sitting”.  I think it is amazing how so many problems are helped by so little positions.  I think the “wood chopper” is the one I use most.  I am constantly eating too much ice cream.  Anyway, I think these moves will come in handy later and I will remember them for life.  Thanks again!”

“Thank you so much for teaching us Polarity Yoga, it helps me so much!!!  And also your headache thing really works!  My sister has a boy friend crisis last night so I had a super headache.  Thank you a ton!”

“Thank you for teaching us yoga.  Today we had an end of the year chorus party.  I ate way too much junk and I felt like I was going to be sick so I did the wood chopper.  The same thing happened at the state fair, it really comes in handy!”

“I know that I’ll remember Polarity yoga forever.  My favorite position is head-molding.  I got my first headache and I did head-molding and I didn’t have a headache anymore.  I also taught my mom the Side-to-Side Ha posture; she needed it!

“Thank you so much for teaching us Polarity yoga.  My favorite one is the lion roar.  I really liked the yoga because I learned a way to help my body work better.”

“I did enjoy polarity yoga.  My favorite pose was probably the wise man.  It helps me get to sleep. Thank you very much.”

“Thank you so much for teaching me Polarity yoga.  I can use it for headaches, stomach aches and butterflies.  My favorite one was probably the wise man.  I liked this one because it relaxes me.  Polarity yoga will stay with me for a very long time.”
