Try your first half-hour session FREE! Then receive time on the mat by making tax-deductible donations to Lifestream!
The properties in the Amethyst Bio-Mat are Far-Infrared Rays, Negative Ions and Amethyst Crystals which help create alkalinity in the body, reduce acidosis, and allow the body to reach a deep Delta state of sleep where true regeneration can occur versus simply getting into Alpha or Beta sleep modes. These properties also help improve circulation, blood flow, nerve response, immune system response, metabolism, detox and regulation of blood sugar, reduce pain, stiffness, lumbago issues, inflamation, headaches, stress and fatigue and removal of toxins including mercury and heavy metals.
The Far-Infrared Rays penetrate several inches through the body and are very detoxifying for the body's system. The Negative Ions are like the Fountain of Youth for the body to energize itself. The Amethyst Crystals are the "peace stones" that create a calming, centering, grounding, detoxifying and consciousness raising effect and are also good for reducing addictions.
The Amazing Therapeutic Amethyst Bio-Mat is a fundraiser for Lifestream. For a minimum $100 donation, you receive eight one-hour sessions on the mat (or 16 half-hour sessions). For a donation of $25, you receive a one-hour session; for a $15 donation, you get a half-hour session. Plus we also sell this amazing mat! Call us today to set up your appointment!

Category: Rolfing

Rolfing is an original and scientifically validated system of working with the body in order to bring the major segments - the head, shoulders, trunk, pelvis, knees and feet - into vertical alignment and in balance with gravity. Rolfing develops order in the body by the direct manipulation of the connective tissue. Tight areas are loosened, circulation is improved and the person becomes more aware of overall body balance.
People of all ages come to Rolfing for help with neck pain, headaches, back problems, impaired mobility and other difficulties that originate from internal strain. Others seek to improve athletic performance and enhance personal growth.
Rolfing (1) improves posture and alignment; (2) relieves aches and pains; (3) increases flexibility; (4) improves performance and (5) diminishes stress and promotes emotional health. The standard procedure consists of 10 sessions. These may be completed at the rate of one session per week or spread over as long as six months.

Dennis began the practice of TM in 1975 and found it to be a life-changing event. He was so enthused he went to the TM Teacher Training program for the next three years. Much of the training was directly from the TM’s founder Maharshi Mahesh Yogi. Maharshi brought TM to the US in 1959, and since then, TM has become the most popular program for self-improvement and stress management in the world. TM is not a lifestyle or religion but is a very simple, easy, enjoyable mental technique that anyone can do. The benefits of TM can be seen immediately and accumulate over time. It is practiced for 15 to 20 minutes twice daily while sitting comfortably. The technique puts one into a very deep state of relaxation that releases the stress and produces many benefits.
Over 600 research studies from prestigious universities and reseach institutions have shown that the benefits of TM are enormous. Benefits such as reduced stress, decreased BP, improved cardiovascular health, clearer thinking, improved memory, improved relationships, decreased anxiety, reduced susbstance abuse and more.

Jeanne Greening has been in the world of metaphysics and healing for over 50 years having taught Hynotherapy and Reiki classes throughout the United States. For the past six years, she has been working with the QXCI/EPFX/SCIO Biofeedback program developed by William Nelson. Jeanne is Internationally Licensed with the International Medical University of Natural Education. Jeanne is in the process of studying for the Doctor of Quantum Naturopath. She has been a Reiki Master since 1986 and regularly offers Reiki classes at Lifestream.
The QXCI/EPFX/SCIO is a biofeedback, bio-energetic program which is able to read the individual's field and bring it back so one is able to read where the stress has effected the body. This device is a high-tech complementary health device that assists practitioners to find energetic imbalances and health issues occurring within humans and animals.
The functions of the SCIO are similar to that of a virus-scan on a computer. The QXCI/EPFX/SCIO detects weaknesses such as viruses, nutritional deficiencies, alergies, abnormalties and food sensitivities by calculating the biological reactivity and resonance within your body. This data offers an understanding of your possible needs, dysfunctions and vulnerabilities. The information is inevitably different from that provided by more standard tests (e.g blood tests, X-rays) because it focuses in on your energetic body which offers a more complete view of each facet of your health. Basically, the QXCI/EPFX/SCIO reveals anything that is negatively affecting health. After measuring the body's frequencies, the QXCI/EPFX/SCIO feeds back its own frequencies to redress or neutralize destructive wave patterns. It also reveals positive aspects such as super learning to balance the right/left brain, to stabilize your goals, to stimulate creativity or to stimulate intelligence and much more. However, to improve and revitalize health, we tend to focus more on the negative aspects.
The QXCI/EPFX/SCIO is an exceptional tool for use with children because they often are unable verbally to communicate what is going on inside of them. A session could unearth possibilities such as food intolerances and toxicities which could be the underlying issues surrounding learning disabilities, "acting out" behaviors and out-of-control emotions.
Animals are unable to communicate with us in the most obvious ways, although it may be apparent that they are suffering from both physical and psychological problems. Pet owners have seen vast behavioral improvements and increased vitality in their pets following a session.

DREAM WORK is a form of inner work in which participants examine the wisdom and revelations found in the encoded messages that come to them every night in their dreams. Dreams speak in symbols, myths and metaphors and contain multidimensional meanings. Through dream work, every participant can be taught to access the wisom and guidance of one’s inner voice, whether that voice be called the dreamer’s unconscious, higher self, Spirit or God. All dreams speak in a universal language and come in the service of health and wholeness. Some dreams come in the form of nightmares to get our attention and make us remember then when we awaken. Dreams that have a recurrent theme tell us that there are unresolved issues or problems that we need to address.
