At some point in time, even the most aware and grounded of us find ourselves in a dark emotional place. It can range from just having “the blues”, to being affected by the seasons, to a mild or moderate form of depression. Regardless of the description, it can be uncomfortable, scary and challenging to navigate, and difficult to share with others. How do we know when to embrace the darkness and when there is a risk of being swallowed by it?
This week will be Part 2 of two shows meant to shed some light on how to go through these periods of emotional darkness with awareness, speed and grace. This week, we’ll be discussing how to identify when we are in a dark place, and what we can do to move through it. We’ll discuss tools and insights that can help make this process less scary and even empowering.
Our guest in this important two-part show is Kara Catrelle. Kara earned her Master’s Degree in Clinical Social work from Loyola University-Chicago and her Ayurvedic Wellness Consultant Certification from Maharishi University of Management. In her private practice she specializes in psycho-spiritual awareness/transformation, and health & wellness consultation for individuals and couples. The foundation of her practice is based on empowering clients through developing greater self-referral mechanisms. Her professional emphasis is on combining ancient spiritual knowledge with modern science, utilizing both Eastern and Western wisdom, the power of Myth, Alchemy, Dream Interpretation, Cognitive Neuroscience, and ancient Ayurvedic Principles to bring forth greater consciousness, clarity and balance for her clients. Ms. Catrelle has a deep understanding of the evolutionary path of the soul and assists people in living one’s highest potential. She offers her clients psychotherapy, education, spiritual guidance, and health & wellness coaching/consultation for individuals, families, corporations and schools.
Kara will provide expert guidance to us in our discussion and we are honored to have her on our show. You can find out more about Kara at www.fullcirclemilwaukee.com.

Rolfers believe that like all other material structures, the human body submits to the basic laws of physics. When we are out of balance, gravity that drags us down, just as it drags down a building that has lost its architectural integrity. As we move through life and are forced to compensate for injuries, physical or emotional traumas, work habits or habitual activities, the soft tissues in our bodies lose their elasticity. Over time, our bodies get molded into a set shape that prevents us from standing, moving, sitting, or even resting comfortably or efficiently.
Rolfing accomplishes its results through a set of ten specific goals designed to open and balance the whole body. This is known as “The Rolfing Ten Series.” Through refined and intelligent pressure applied by a Certified Rolfer, specific areas of the body are carefully manipulated to release areas where the body is restricted. The “Series” is administered progressively; each session builds upon the last until complete integration of the structure is achieved. The sole purpose of Rolfing is to bring order to structure, and it is through the accomplishment of that purpose the function of the whole person is enhanced.
Our Guest in this discussion, Rey Allen, is a Certified Advanced Rolfer and a Graduate from The European Rolfing Association in Munich, Germany, 2002. His professional approach includes being able to palpate and assess with accuracy, determine what systems are involved, strategize sessions efficiently, and to work in a gentle manner.
Rey has always dedicated a great deal of time advancing his skills in areas of specialty, including Visceral Manipulation, BioMechanics and Nerve Manipulation. We are grateful to have Rey as a guest on our show. We will be speaking with him at his office in New York City.

Our five senses play an important role in our health and living a full life. This week we’ll be exploring two different types of healing that work with two of the senses to bring health into balance: aromatherapy and sound healing.
Aromatherapy is the practice of using the natural oils extracted from flowers, bark, stems, leaves, roots or other parts of a plant to enhance psychological and physical well-being. The inhaled aroma from these “essential” oils is widely believed to stimulate brain function. Aromatherapy is used for a variety of applications, including pain relief, mood enhancement and increased cognitive function.
Sound Healing, through various techniques and technologies, is the educated and conscious use of the energy of sound to promote wellness in the human system – including the expansion of consciousness. Sound Healing is founded on the premise that all matter is vibrating at specific frequencies. There are a wide range of techniques that utilize sound as a tool for change. The most common and basic use of sound is for meditation and relaxation. Chanting, toning and overtone singing are some of the most powerful methods for resonating sound throughout the body. The use of nature sounds and natural instruments, such as crystal bowls and tuning forks, have specific healing frequencies and harmonics. Listening to one’s own root frequency enables an individual to create a more centered and grounded awareness within their life.
Sandy Bachman is an intuitive and heart-centered healer. Her mission is to meet clients, without judgment, where they are on their spiritual journey and to assist in transformation through the circle of life.
