Newsletter January 2020: Happy New Year – Let’s Make 2020 Your Healthiest Year Ever!

With the New Year our thoughts turn to our annual New Year’s resolutions. This year let us all resolve that 2020 will be our healthiest year ever and the new decade will be our healthiest decade! 

Let us all find the strength and fortitude to do what we need to do – eat healthier, exercise more, and engage in activities that reduce our mental and emotional stress. 

Yes, we recognize this is a challenge, but you can do it! Our advice is to do what you can. Success builds on success. The path to be your healthiest self involves multiple steps. Take them one at a time and keep moving forward!  

We believe the best first step towards a healthier lifestyle is the SHAPE ReClaimed® program. It is without a doubt the most effective detoxification and health restoration program we have offered at Rosen Wellness. Our clients are having tremendous success in meeting their goals. Not only are they losing weight, but they are also feeling better. They report that many of their aches and pains are reduced or gone! There are several couples working together, learning a healthy lifestyle, and regaining their health. This testimonial says it all:

With the help of Bernie, Susana, and SHAPE, I was able to lose 42 pounds to date

“After seeing such great results from my daughter, I went to see Bernie about one year ago with numerous health issues of my own.  Most of them stemming from extreme inflammation levels.   Eventually I became educated enough to fully understand how inflammation is linked to chronic diseases, some of which I was experiencing.  One of the biggest issues that I have struggled with was weight loss.  I was a sucker for trying every diet out on the market.  Bernie recommended giving SHAPE a try to cut down inflammation and accelerate the weight loss process.  With the help of Bernie, Susana, and SHAPE, I was able to lose 42 pounds to date.  By eliminating a great deal of inflammation, my overall mental and physical health has improved greatly.” B.S.

One of the best ways to be successful is to have a partner or partners walking the path with you. Share your successes; motivate and support each other when you struggle. With that in mind, we have a special partners offer for SHAPE for January. The first person is the regular price, the second person receives a $100 discount, and each additional “partner” receives a $50 discount on the four-week New Client Starter Package. To learn more about this offer call Bernie at 262-389-9907 and ask about the SHAPE Partners Promotion. For SHAPE ReClaimed® program details click here: https://brwellness.com/shape-reclaimed/

An even more significant resolution may be to help someone else become healthier in 2020. Many of you mention a friend or loved one that you would like to come into the office. Now is the perfect time to encourage them to set up an appointment. Let us make 2020 the healthiest year ever for everyone we know!

Expertise and Support While Playing Division 1 Volleyball in Memphis

“When I first started to see Bernie, I had just recently decided to continue my eligibility playing Division 1 college volleyball down in Memphis.  I was struggling with severe acne due to food allergies, and an imbalance in my hormones resulting in a tough menstrual cycles.  My personal goal before heading off to Memphis for my graduate degree and final volleyball season was to make sure I was as healthy as I could be.  While down in Memphis, Bernie was able to adjust my supplement levels virtually to accommodate for my extreme levels of physical activity along with the stress of traveling and masters level work.  Returning after my volleyball season to Wisconsin, I scheduled a checkup with Bernie, and my levels seemed to be in great shape.  Thanks to Bernie and his flexibility and expertise while being in Memphis, my body was able to handle physical and emotional stress extremely well and continue to stay as healthy as I was before I left.” C.S.

Newsletter December 2019: Is Your Health Worth $4.69 A Day?

Is Your Health Worth $4.69 Per Day?

We hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving and are now gearing up for the rest of the Holiday Season. One of the most interesting client conversations this month was with a client who told us she calculated that her supplements cost her $4.69 per day. This client is on a maintenance package with female endocrine and digestive support. We were not sure what to make of her comment at first, but then she went on to say how pleased she was with how she was feeling and how this was certainly money well spent. We then engaged in a conversation how at times people perceive they are paying a lot for their supplements, yet at the same time have no problem spending more than that for their daily cup of coffee at Starbucks, or for something from somewhere else. Her conclusion is that her health is important, and her supplements keep her healthy and feeling good.

As the New Year approaches, we have lots of “new” to report at Rosen Wellness.

These Are A Few of Our Favorite Things

Given the confusion and hype so prevalent on the Internet and in the media,  we are often asked where to go for reliable, dependable and accurate information regarding nutrition.

Click here is a list of our FAVORITE WEBSITES and BOOKS: https://brwellness.com/these-are-a-few-of-our-favorite-things/

Newsletter November 2019: Are You a Bucket Face?

To start things off Susana and I would like to thank Dr. Todd and Linda Frisch for their outstanding presentation last week at our SHAPE Warrior Event. Current and future SHAPE Warriors enjoyed learning the background to SHAPE and why they are detoxifying, feeling better than ever, and losing the weight they have struggled with in the past. They were also treated to a demonstration of Dr. Todd’s amazing Facial Analysis technique. More on that later in the newsletter.

We have talked in the past about the unique features of SHAPE ReClaimed® - one of them being the urinalysis. From the urinalysis we learn about hydration and mineral balance. One essential mineral is sodium which we can get from salt, but not any salt. The SHAPE program recommends a minimum of ½ teaspoon of Celtic Sea Salt®. Read below why.

We have mentioned in past newsletters how we love to learn new information, how it enriches our practice and ultimately provides benefits to our clients. We are fortunate that we are able to meet leading practitioners like Dr. Todd and Linda Frisch. Not only have they developed the SHAPE ReClaimed® program, but Dr. Todd along with his daughter Abbie have developed their own facial analysis technique. We are pleased to announce that we are now offering this service. More details below.

A little teaser – we are already in discussions to bring Dr. Todd back in the Spring for a presentation on facial analysis.

Pass the Salt, Celtic Sea Salt® That Is!

To pass the salt or not to pass the salt, that is the question.  This is another example of nutrition confusion. First, we will address why we need salt and second why Celtic Sea Salt® is the best choice.

Let us start with the key difference between salt and sodium.  Salts are natural combinations of minerals containing sodium and other minerals. Sodium is essential to life.  It is critical for the health of every cell in the body. Sodium is a key part of the fluid between the cells.  Along with its partner potassium, the two minerals balance the nutrient and waste exchange of each cell.  Sodium is also in our blood, our lymphatic fluid, and is required for the production of hydrochloric acid so we can digest our food.  Sodium is involved in nerve and muscle functioning where it again teams with potassium.  It also maintains our body’s fluid balance, electrolyte balance, and pH balance.

As evident from above we need sodium and it is preferable to consume it in a healthy manner.  Food sources of natural sodium include vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, fruits, fish, poultry, eggs, milk, and meat.  Unfortunately, most of the population obtains sodium from refined table salt or sodium added to processed foods.  These are unhealthy forms of sodium because they have been stripped of all the naturally occurring minerals. In table salt all that remains are sodium and chloride.

Are You A Bucket Face? Introducing Facial Analysis

As mentioned above we are pleased to announce that we now offer Facial Analysis. In summary, facial analysis is a technique to understand health and personality. There are nine face shapes. Most people are of one type, but some are a combination. The face shapes indicate general characteristics. What is most interesting is looking at the right and left side of the face independently. The Right side is the public persona, the outer expressions, and related to female or women in the life. The Left side is the inner self, the private self, and related to male or men in the life.

From the face shape we move on to the face map and specific markings (such as lines, redness, puffiness, etc.) on the face. Each part of the face refers to specific organs and is a way to identify areas of stress in the body. Through the identification of these marks areas of health concerns can be identified and addressed. 

The last part of the analysis is looking at 22 specific characteristics (including eyes, ears, nose, mouth, chin, forehead, etc.) that correlate to personality traits.

Putting it all together provides an overall picture of health and personality. Utilizing the SHAPE ReClaimed® program and muscle testing a plan to improve and enhance total health can be developed.

Sign up now for your Facial Analysis with a special introductory offer of $100. Call or email to set up your appointment.

On SHAPE, First Time in 33 Years No Cramping On Cycle

While we have been hearing consistently from our SHAPE clients that they feel better, have less pain and inflammation, this was a first for us and very welcome testimonial:

“I have been on the [SHAPE] drops for 7 days as of today. I had a menstrual cycle for the last 33 years every month with significant cramps at a point that was not able to tolerate them without Tylenol or Ibuprofen for the first 2 days every month.  This is my second day of my cycle and had not need any medication.

🙏🏼🥰🙏🏼🥰🙏🏼🥰” S.S.
