As COVID-19 continues to spread, peoples’ stress and insomnia soar higher. Even the most laid-back people find themselves having trouble sleeping or feeling anxious. Uncertainty has become a way of life. Many people need a way to let go of stress and insomnia.
It’s not just the fact that you could get Covid-19 or if you have it ‘you’ll share-it,’ it’s the uncertainty we see in our world. Your life may be filled with doubt about your lively hood, your family, even your home. It’s not just a pandemic of health; it’s a pandemic of emotional anxiety and stress. It is a time when nights are filled with a routine of waking each night and trouble getting back to sleep.
4 Ways to Let go of Stress and Insomnia
We can help ourselves by watching less news. We can relax our minds more through mediation and mindfulness. We can ease body tension by practicing yoga or other fitness. Let go of stress and insomnia first by looking at habits that may fuel excitement or worry in your life.
When we lack the time or doing the things mentioned above isn’t enough, what’s the answer? I hate pushing supplements, but I can tell you that your body doesn’t make enough of many natural chemicals needed in times like these. For me to let go of stress and insomnia, I have taken a regime of certain neurotransmitters. As we age beyond our teen years, our bodies make less of these in most cases.
Overcome Stress Now
I’m not talking about your basics in nutrients; instead, focus on the necessary natural chemicals your body and brain makes to help you to let go of stress and anxiety. These same neurotransmitters welcome relaxation and can help you sleep better at night.
This is the fourth way to let go of stress and insomnia. Put away the idea of prescription drugs or over-the-counter pills. Instead, enhance your body’s ability to render anxiety and insomnia useless.
I recommend these formulas to anyone suffering from mental fog, cognitive issues, or lack of mental energy, too – given the right circumstances*. I’ve prescribed these to stroke patients*.
Bring back the Zen in your life with four unique formulas.
Relax without sedation*.
Bring the Zen back into your life. Help support a feeling of general relaxation and enhanced calmness during the daytime and night with GABA and L-theanine. Life is complicated enough without hard drugs that sedate you. Relax without sedation with their formula.
Zen Adapt*
Many people have stress or tension that affects the sleep cycle, but it interferes with every part of their person. With this third formula, you can help alleviate the physical, emotional, and mental effects of stress and tension. The main ingredient is ashwagandha and the patented Sensoril formula, a pure water extract.
Zen Sleep*
When we wake from a more deeply relaxed state, you’re ready to tackle the day with more ease and grace. Without a good night’s sleep, we tend to be reactive instead of being responsive to others. Sleep is so vital that numerous notable people have spoken out about its importance in the last decade.
P5P and 5-HTP are precursors to Serotonin and Melatonin. Using both at bedtime can help you drift into a deeper, more relaxed sleep. Often, I recommend a suspended release of Melatonin for anyone who finds themselves repeatedly waking in the middle of the night.
I understand personally how demanding life is, especially right now. There are days I struggle to let go of stress and insomnia. My practice and recommendation to you is to get into meditation if you are doing so yet. Look at your eating and exercise habits.
Finally, if you still are in a battle to let go of stress and insomnia, this group of formulas may be right for you. I am happy to work with you by phone –give me a call.

There’s no question more people work from home these days. It also means more home-cooked meals and baking in my house! I’m finding it harder deal with weight loss – when you work from home.
Why Losing Weight Is Difficult For Me
Self-control in the kitchen is harder. Getting outside even in this beautiful weather is often put off. Sitting more and not creating a routine that serves us a healthy body, and keeps us from gaining weight is common. My office is attached to my home. For years, I’ve separated office from home. Then my husband started working from home. Now on breaks I ‘stop by’ to see him.
Weight Loss When You Work From Home
There are things you can do that will help you lose weight, feel better, and have more energy. One thing I’m doing is going back to my routine. No more ‘visits’ to the house. Back to bringing my lunch to the office or like in the past having my food prepared so I can simply go get it from the kitchen. No daytime baking or impulse snacks because others are eating. I have a plan and I want to offer a few ideas to stimulate you to create a routine that aids you in weight loss when you work from home too.
Acupuncture Weight Loss Injections Boost Metabolism
Acupuncture injections for weight loss speed up your metabolism. They’re natural vitamins that help you burn calories, and have energy from the fuel you eat.
There is much more though you can do at home. Keeping pounds off happens long-term when you empower yourself by creating a plan or having a routine. My hope is that you’ll take these 9 ideas to heart and create a plan or routine that supports your weight and health goals.
Ideas To Help You Build A Healthy Routine
Make a meal plan and stick to it. Don’t wander into the kitchen unless it’s mealtime eat perishable first.
Have an eating schedule – don’t get caught up working and forget to eat or graze all day at your desk.
Keep your meals filled with foods that will keep you full. Protein, fiber, vegetables, and healthy fats
Smart Snacking – try fruits, seeds placing these in a bowl, not from the container or bag. Remember, nuts are edible too though they contain a lot of fat.
Keep track of what you eat by knowing what you plan to eat that day. Then adjust it throughout the day. A simple journal entry is all you need.
Stay active! Set timers to get out of your chair at your home office. Take walks, stretch, even bike, run, or lift weights.
Channel your stress. Emotional eating is more comfortable when we work from home. Make it a practice to meditate for 5-15 minutes daily. You can break it up or all at once. Do mindfulness minutes with deep breathing if you can’t break away during the work hours to meditate.
Ask yourself, is this a problem that I must address now, or can I table it until later?
Take up a hobby for when a craving hits. – play sudoku, or mahjong, read a chapter in a book. Play with the dog- my favorite
Make sure you’re sleeping. This helps control hunger hormones. It helps you resist junk food because you have rested well.
Do Acupuncture and also try the Vitamin injections that promote increased metabolism, better absorption of nutrition – giving you more energy, and helps you stop sugar and carb cravings. Both help you with weight loss when you work from home or not. Creating a home plan or routine along with other support to help you is something successful people do.
You are what you eat and think, so put healthy foods and thoughts into yourself. Doing this will help you improve your life in many ways. I believe in you and know you are worthy of health.
As an anxiety sufferer myself, I always thought there was something wrong with me. The people around me made anxiety seem like a disease instead of a natural response to certain situations. All I needed was this single vitamin to fight anxiety.
EVERYONE has Anxiety
Sometimes it’s more than average; that’s when we look at ways to treat it naturally. Don’t buy into the belief that something is wrong with you.
Anxiousness is often treated as a mental health issue even when it’s a biological concern. If you’re deficient in several amino acids and vitamins you’re likely to be more anxious, stressed-out, and experience insomnia. A prescription drug may cause more deficiencies while a single vitamin to fight anxiety changes your internal balance.
Feeling Anxious?
There’s a single vitamin that fights anxiety though it works synergistic with others. It’s not just about a vitamins though. EAM, or Electro-acupuncture medicine, has a strong track record of working with the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems to emotionally balance; especially when we experience stress, insomnia and anxiety..
Your Armor Against Runaway Emotions
There are tools you can use at home.
BUT — and I mean, BUT, the key for myself was finding out what my nutritional deficiencies were and taking care of those through Functional Medicine.
A Patient shared. . .
One patient I treated put it this way, “My husband told me he was afraid of me because I flew off the handle at he and the kids constantly and whatever you’re giving me – not to stop. He has his wife back!”
The patient knew she was full of stress and unease yet had no idea she was affecting everyone around her.
Simply put – she does the seven things on my list, and we’ve added the right supplements. She wasn’t crazy; She wasn’t a bi@ch. She wasn’t mentally ill. When I say it’s a single vitamin to fight anxiety it’s a family that work harmoniously together.
The Missing Vitamin
Do you want to know what the single vitamin for anxiety is? It’s B12 complex. And it needs to be in a specific form. It’s not something you should risk picking up at the local store. It also works best when you take it with a “salt’ mineral.
Don’t mess around with your wellness and life by believing there’s something wrong or that you can manage it alone. We’re here to support you.

As I write this, there’s a big scare about a virus in China. They call it the Corona virus. Thankfully it’s not hit the USA except for a few cases. Using acupuncture for viruses and colds is not new. It’s ancient medicine. Not just in China but throughout Asia Major and Minor.
Acupuncture and Herbals Year Round
How can we protect ourselves from this nasty and sometimes fatal infection and others? What can we do to avoid colds? Sure, you can get a flu shot, if that is okay with you.
Still, the flu shot will not protect you in this case or against cold and viruses.
Below is my protocol that keeps me healthy. It can work for you too! My husband uses it and so other patients and clients. Using acupuncture for viruses and colds is a common request in our practice. Most patients choose to use acupuncture as a preventative and stay well.
This 3 step protocol works for all adults who are on a large number of western drugs or medicines.
3 Steps To Stay Healthy All Year Long
Get acupuncture when you’re well. Yes, come in for wellness acupuncture once a month. That’s only 12 visits a year. Most people visit a coffee shop or their nail salon more than that!
Using acupuncture for viruses and colds out dates western medicine OTC drugs by centuries. It has no side-effects, can lessen how long you stay ill, and ease some of your symptoms if you’re already sick.
If you don’t have a cold or viruses is can mean the difference between getting one or not.
Let Herbs Help
2. Follow my year-round herbal protocol. This consists of three formulas that you take daily. Accent On Health Wellness can provide you as a patient or online shopper with the ability to get these year-round sent to your home.
An enzyme, vitamin, herbal blend to boost your immune system. Take two of these with breakfast all year to stay resistant.
A unique blend of vitamin C. This one protects you against heart disease too.
A particular type and strength of D vitamin. I recommend this formula because it not only keeps your immune system healthy, it powers you up against cognitive disease. Taking just plain ole’ D won’t do it.
If You Get A Cold or Virus Be Prepared At Home
3. If you start to feel like your getting sick, start taking these Chinese Formulas’. We’ll help you know

Viracid is a delightful blend of western and eastern herbs that you should begin the minute you start to notice any symptoms. These indications include digestive problems. I take this with me when I travel to certain countries and take it daily as a preventive for stomach issues. It is excellent for any viral problem.
Bi Yan Pian is my go-to for sinus infections or congestion. Now you have to know which type of sinus problem you’re having because it works on those that Pe Min Kan Wan does not.
Pe min Kan Wan is best for a clear runny nose. Super for allergies or runny nose colds. It will dry up, so let’s talk.

Have you ever had an itch that burns? An itch that makes you feel like your skin is on fire? The left sole of my foot itched so deep I used a blunted tool to dig in, still no relief. It moved to my left palm, then my right pinky of all places. I had food poisoning. I had an allergic reaction.
The Ultimate Allergic Reaction
The itch, as it’s now called, moved recklessly all over my body. No place safe from the itch. A true allergic reaction. Skin irritation is so unpleasant, and the constant battle brings on fatigue and physical weakness.
It started at one of our favorite [not any longer] Mexican restaurants. By the time we’d finished eating, I knew something was wrong. My stomach was achy, so I quickly took some enzymes that I carry. Food poisoning wasn’t on my mind.
The Many Faces Of Food Poisoning
My husband felt fine until the middle of the night. He woke with all the typical food poisoning symptoms: Stomach ache, diarrhea, fever, and chills. Myself on the hand had a different response.
If you ever have a similar allergic reaction to food poisoning, here are some tips, including not eating that food again. Here’s what you can do the next time food attacks you.

The Best Natural Treatment
Keep dietary Charcoal on hand. Take 450-580 mg on an empty stomach 2-4 times a day until all your symptoms are gone. The charcoal will bind to the toxins and move them out of your digestion. It must be taken on an empty stomach. It’s critical to wait 2 hours after taking it before eating.
Add-in with your food, Quercetin, Vitamin C, and Bromalin.
Staying Away From Western Medicine
I know many times people don’t know what they can do that is safe and natural. We hurry to get Benadryl or a steroid from the doctor. Both of these do more harm than good. Suppressing your symptoms only makes your allergic reaction last longer because the toxins are still inside you.
If you’re in trouble with a rash or itchy skin, due to any reason, try these natural supplements. When your skin itches you’re having an allergic reaction. You can also try Allergy elimination treatments. They’re a specific acupuncture treatment to stop some allergies. We’re happy to talk to you by phone and help you with your online order. Food poisoning is no fun.
We are in network with most insurance providers, but because of Covid-19, not all plans cover benefits, even if you have insurance. The VA and Tri-West are covering acupuncture and light therapy.
