Dear Customers, Clients, and Colleagues,
 
So much has been going on this month since I returned from the International Iridology Practitioner's Association (IIPA) Conference in February.  March has been extremely busy for us with our courses, Nature's Sunshine, and creating new courses and opportunities for our new students and graduates.

The IIPA conference was excellent.  I thoroughly enjoyed it.  What made it so great was not only listening to the speakers and their topics this year but also being able to meet many of my colleagues that I've been working with for so many years. 

It was such an honor to finally meet Toni Miller who I have worked with for many years with iridology.  I also met Steven Horne who has such a fun personality.  Of course Ellen Jensen was there as was Art Jensen whom I love dearly and have known for years.  I met Art Jensen down at Dr. Jensen's ranch in 1987 and have kept in touch with him all these years.  I also am honored to finally have been able to meet Leonard and Nenita Mehlmauer of Grand Medicine.  I've worked with them with sclerology for many years.  We were all able to talk about our part in teaching iridology and sclerology and it was wonderful to be able to bounce ideas off each other and share our love for the healing arts. 

For more information and pictures from the event, go to our facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/brenda.generali

Speakers included:

• Kim Balas who spoke about Balancing Blood Work with the Emotions
• Robert Cass spoke about Poly-Systemic Conditions with BioEnergetic Medicine
• Steven Horne spoke about Iridology, Flower Essences and Emotional Healing
• Jon Miles spoke about The Rayid Model; An Iris Analysis Methodology
• Rex Miller spoke about How Iridology assists in Extemporaneous Herbal Formulation
• Toni Miller spoke about Clinical Assessment of Cardio Vascular Risk using Integrated Iridology and Protocols that Work
• Alicia Rocco spoke about Emotional Iridology
• Jordan Rubin spoke about A Food System in Crisis
• Carol Magda and Dr. Sha spoke about Increasing Your Healing Power and provided us all with a healing

The main topic was emotion and  the conference confirmed what I've always believed.  Beneath every physical ailment is an emotional issue that has never been healed.  Louise L. Hay talks about The Mental Causes for Physical Illness and the Way to Overcome Them in her book "Heal Your Body A - Z".  I highly recommend her book.  It talks about how emotions affect our body and she gives affirmations for every part of the body to help heal it.

If you are not a member of IIPA please talk to me if you would like to become more involved in iridology.  IIPA is becoming "International" and is a great organization to be involved with to broaden your knowledge of iridology.

Homeopathic Course Testimonial

What I have Learned & How I will Use It in My Practice by Trijntje Reilly

With Gratitude to Brenda Generali, Joyful Living Services

Middle Path Health & Awareness

Many years ago when I did my Naturopathy course back in 1983 we skimmed over Homeopathy and it never was much interest to me. I just loved herbs. However last year a friend's daughter was hospitalized with severe morning sickness which I had made some suggestions and given some potions for.

A fellow healer saw her and prescribed a homeopathic remedy which within hours had her feeling much better and solved the morning sickness almost instantly it was life threatening. This amazed me and I wanted to learn more and just as usual the Universe intervened and I received an email from you and immediately did your course Brenda.

A whole new world in healing opened up to me as I always had a problem giving small children and old people herbal tinctures or teas and with Homeopathy the pills are so easy to give to the very frail and young and of course those precious sensitive beings that just can't handle tastes that are anything other than what they are used too.

I will not ever deny the potency of Homeopathy as with my enthusiasm worked out a few remedies that suited past ails that both Fergus and I had and bought them, took them and we both got very ill. Being both healthy when we took them we proved the remedies. Well I nearly killed Fergus he came up with what I would say Pneumonia symptoms within days and yet we kept on taking the remedies not understanding the dosage, What a lesson never to be forgotten of their potency. I took on the symptoms of a thyroid condition and was ill for 3 months. I went to a homeopathy day in Brisbane and mentioned it to the tutor who brushed it aside and said this happens sometimes. It was only when I talked to an older Homeopath that she explained I had proven the remedies using them on healthy people.

She told me to drink plenty of coffee as an antidote which I did and I stopped the remedies and became ourselves again. Boy what an experience first hand. I have learned about the History of Homeopathy and when it first started and that it is based on treating the symptom with a homeopathic that has side effects just like the symptom. The term is called like heals like.

I have asked more questions in my clinic regarding my clients symptoms like is it worse morning or night in cold or hot weather, is it a sharp, pain or describe the pain. Worse when stressed or agitated, what type of mucus and whatever I can think of depending on the ailment.

I have learned about dosage, and single remedies being the best option to start with taking in consideration all the symptoms the client may have and not just one.

These are just some of the other things that I have learned:

That when considering a remedy not to take just one principal symptom look at the complete person, body mind and spirit. Treating the Whole Person, finding the Simillium.

That babies and pregnant woman when ill can take Homeopathic remedies as well as sick people.

Know when to stop giving Homeopathic remedies if the symptoms keep on persisting and seek medical advice.

I Have learned remedies for many general ailments in this course and have enjoyed the course immensely with its wide base of knowledge and enjoy using the software program. To learn more about our courses, go to:

I have been using Nature's Sunshine's Silver Shield for a couple of years and so have several of my clients.  Here are a few of it's uses:  

• Spray it in your eye when you have a broken blood vessel.
• Spray it on cuts and scrapes, especially children, as it does not hurt
• I also spray it on my face to give it a glow
• Spray it on toes that have that toe fungus as well as fingers
• Spray it on the steering wheel of the car.
• Drink it in a glass of water before exercising
• Spray the air of school classrooms as many germs float around in schools.
• Spray any area of the body to heal better.
• I sprayed it on my dog who had a flea or tic bite her and the bite was healed in a day.
• My husband sprays his golf club grips.
• Spray it on mosquito bites.
• Drink it every day to keep the doctor away.

Virtually all life activities of the body are directed by the Brain.  Dr. Bernard Jensen found anemia of the Brain to be the most serious result of impaired circulation, low blood count, inadequate nutrients in the blood or any combination of these factors.  The joy of life seems to diminish to a sluggish trickle, while thinking slows, memory dulls and a curtain drops over many activities and abilities which were formerly taken for granted.  This condition, commonly associated with senility and old age, has less to do with chronological age than it does with our way of life.  If a low blood count is suspected, Dr. Jensen advised obtaining confirmation through a lab analysis.  You can build up the blood with iron-rich foods such as green vegetables, beets, black cherries, black raspberries, liquid chlorophyll and other supplements.  Moving to a higher altitude can help.  To improve circulation Dr. Jensen recommended slanting board exercises, early morning barefoot walks in dewy grass or on a sandy beach, Kneipp baths, alternate hot and cold footbaths and physical exercises appropriate to the persons age.  Physical exercise stimulates increased adrenaline secretion which in turn stimulates faster, deeper respirations, faster heart action and greater oxygenation of body tissues
 
Cerebral Anemia means there is a lack of adequate blood supply to the brain areas for one reason or another.  Dietary modifications, exercise, herbs, vitamins, minerals, food supplements and use of a slanting board on a regular basis are very helpful in these cases.  Herbs such as Gotu Kola, Capsicum and Ginseng are also very helpful.  The vitamin necessary is Niacin.

Brenda, thanks for your help. I am excited that I reached manager status with Nature's Sunshine Products. I finally have decided to make NSP the primary product sold in my healing arts practice. I have a successful healing arts studio here in the desert where I live. I have been working with different product lines but nothing compares to NSP. I am 100% committed to building my NSP business. My goal has been to start with a small NSP retail section in my studio. I wish I would have started with NSP earlier because I didn't care for the product line we have been using. They just do not have the selection that NSP offers and the ease of purchasing for the small practitioner.  I personally use NSP and have for years. I decided to ditch my other product lines and use NSP exclusively. My goal is to open a full blown NSP store adjacent to my studio.  I am really excited about this because I want to find other ways to make money besides my one-on-one client time. I am so busy I tend to wear myself out. I don't cut back on my schedule because I of course need to make money. I see NSP as a way to build some passive future income. I am committed to this goal and hope to achieve it asap. My studio brings in about 40 clients per week which is a blessing but you eventually cap out on time. I plan on really upping my retail sales to build more revenue for my business without having to add more hours to my schedule" - Shay Johnson To contact Shay about her business go to:
