As if our Red Light Therapy bed didn’t do enough for your wellness already (decreases inflammation, speeds recovery, increases energy levels, reduces fine wrinkles and boosts collagen in the skin…) a recent study shows Red Light Therapy reduces blood sugar spikes!

8 Tips for more Enjoyment, Satisfaction and Meaning in 2024. Very helpful interesting book. I found it a read that naturally led me to stop, ponder, and chew on each section. Also, I didn’t know this, and probably wouldn’t have bought it had I known, but it is written by a pastor and discusses Jesus and his teachings throughout- I don’t generally want someone telling me how to do my faith “correctly” - but to me it was a compelling part of the book: using the role model of Jesus to live in a modern world… without being overtly “religious.” Happy new years!!! May your year be filled with peace, ease, health and happiness, from all of us at Active Healing Center!!! 🌟
