Practice-Building Tips from Our Networking Meeting
By: Karen Carnabucci, MSS, LCSW, TEP    Sunday, Oct 04, 2009
Our recent networking event with a diverse group of alternative health professionals representing eight different specialties at Lake House Helath & Learning Center was not only a terrific way to meet other practitioners, it also was a great way to share practice-building tips. Everyone had a marketing tip -- or two or three -- to share. Now I'm sharing with you: Use both sides of your business card -- the front for the basic contact information and the back to offer a coupon, free gift, special offer or even a silly joke. Collaborate with other professionals to create new projects, ...Read More

Bring Health and Fun to Your Conference
By: Karen Carnabucci, MSS, LCSW, TEP    Thursday, Sep 03, 2009
It's well known that there is a growing surge of interest in alternative health, not only in private life but also in the business world. Activities such as yoga, tai chi, meditation and play are making inroads into the most conservative of businesses as more people realize that these activities pay dividends in energizing employees, reducing stress and maintaining health. Adding healthy activities to your business meeting, conference or reunion will pay similar benefits. As a consultant, I tell groups that there are lots of reasons to include these activities in your meeting. Attendees who ...Read More

Internet Tools that can Help You with Your Business
By: Karen Carnabucci, MSS, LCSW, TEP    Thursday, Sep 03, 2009
Here are several Internet tools that I just discovered that can help you with your promotion of your business or organization. Both are simple and really easy on the marketing budget. Really easy, like, free. One is www.helpareporter.com, a free service promoted by Peter Shankman, a media consultant. He collects requests from newspaper and magazine reporters and others about resources they are seeking for interviews, panel discussions and the like. Then he posts these requests in his e-mail newsletter, which he sends to subscribers. I’ve already answered four requests that I’ve ...Read More

By: Karen Carnabucci, MSS, LCSW, TEP    Thursday, Sep 03, 2009
Topic: Addiction and Abuse - Treatment and Healing
As a psychotherapist – including having done work with addicted people – there is a great need for information about learning how to find ways to become more energetic without caffeine and sugar. Here are ideas that you may wish to try: Yoga and especially the classic yogic breathing activity called, “The Breath of Fire,” which involves very fast breathing in and out of the nose – pant like a dog, some say. You can observe a teaching demonstration of this technique at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CB7v3tHow_o Eating foods that are whole foods, rather than ...Read More

Food Allergies May be the Clue to Solve Your Health Problems
By: Karen Carnabucci, MSS, LCSW, TEP    Thursday, Sep 03, 2009
Topic: Asthma, Healthy Weight and Weight Loss, Nutrition and Healthy Eating
The woman caught my eye – she was the only one at the breakfast table with a bowl of Brussels sprouts. Later, I talked with her, curious about her choice of breakfast food. She told me that she once weighed nearly 200 pounds – and I could clearly see that she was now a slender 125 pounds. The reason she gained so much weight? Food allergies. The reason she lost so much weight? Attending to her food allergies by avoiding all the foods for which she tested positive. This meant some odd food choices, she admitted, but she was looking good and feeling better. Increasing numbers of ...Read More

Creativity is in High Demand in These Low Economic Times
By: Karen Carnabucci, MSS, LCSW, TEP    Thursday, Sep 03, 2009
Who wants to be a millionaire? Difficult economic times have spawned zillions of new ideas, entrepreneurship and even millionaires.

Whether that story is true, I don’t know – but I do believe that many people saw opportunities amid inflation, unemployment and soup lines and found themselves thriving rather than just surviving. There are people, me included, who say that the current recession is no exception the ...Read More
