Westchester Wellness Guide

Yummies at in Tarrytown. So nourishing.

A prayer for peace. For all those who are suffering in wars right now. For all those who are scared, anxious or hurt. And all the gratitude to those who are helping, healing, praying, nurturing and protecting. 🙏🙏🙏

I had a truly meaningful acupuncture session today. I drove an hour up to Fishkill, but it was worth it. Evan at Hudson Valley Community Acupuncture is one of those therapists who gives from his heart and allows intuition to guide his healing hands.

If you’ve never heard of “Community Acupuncture,” it is an approach designed to make the modality affordable for everyone by offering it in a large room with several comfortable recliners. A few patients may enjoy the service simultaneously, therefore you are paying for the service, as opposed to the rent for the space.

In Evan’s words: “Acupuncture is the people’s medicine. It always has been. And we are working to bring that back with the community acupuncture. It’s the quietest revolution.”

Evan’s Community Acupuncture Clinic offers all of us an opportunity to overcome challenging symptoms, at a $30-$60 sliding scale.

Evan is not on Instagram but you can contact him at 845-220-8435 or via email at [email protected]. The clinic is located at 1214B Hopewell Ave, Fishkill, NY.

Walking is good for you. Join our friends for a Sensory Nature walk this Friday. Link in stories!

Sensory Nature Walks for Parents & Kids!

10 AM - 11 AM

Fridays, 10/06 - 11/3

Join us this Fall to refresh your spirit and forge a deeper connection with nature, while sharing this enriching sensory journey with your children.

🍁 Embrace the Serenity of Nature 🍂
Immerse yourself in the tranquility of mindfulness within a serene natural setting. This program invites parents and children to come together for a unique start to their weekend, fostering a profound connection with the natural world that surrounds us.

🚶Mindful Sensory Nature Walk 🚶
Guided by our wellness educator Danielle, we will embark on our nature walk, focusing on the sensations as our feet make contact with the Earth. This experience allows us to truly connect with the texture, pressure, and movement beneath us. Along the way, we will gather natural treasures, providing physical and mental benefits that make this activity suitable for participants of all ages. Children, in particular, will discover valuable insights through tactile exploration, enhancing their understanding of how their bodies interact with the environment.

🌻 Circle of Sensory Discovery 🙏
To conclude our mornings, we will gather in a sensory circle to explore the items collected during our walk, as well as other sensory elements carefully arranged for exploration. This is a moment to marvel at the wonders of nature and a unique opportunity for our little ones to express their observations and sensory discoveries. 🌿🌞✨"

We had the pleasure of visiting in this past weekend and it was delicious and nourishing. I’m still day dreaming about the mango coconut oats. Omg. What a lovely combination of flavors. They are vegan & gluten free and their motto is: “Plants do it better” - so on point! I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff too! That’s a big part of the experience for me. Thanks guys! 🥰
