Recover Your Wellness - Fortify Your Health - Discover Bona Fide Independence

San Antonio, TX — It seems like health and wellness tips, suggested regimens, and products are marketed everywhere; Melissa Aguirre, coauthor of The Innate Design: Implementing Self Healing Techniques for the Modern Patient says that sustainable wellness doesn't come from external conditions but from listening to the wisdom of your own body.

If you’ve experienced feeling discouraged because you were unable to maintain a wellness routine, feel well, or stay committed to a ‘diet’; then you are not alone. A recent study showed that it takes over two months before a new habit becomes automatic, thus making lifestyle choice imperative in living well. Implementing holistic practices, self care, and nourishment creates the fertile ground for one to flourish and thrive in his or her health and life. Being healthy is independence. 

The Innate Design offers a comprehensive system to eradicate the imbalances that lead to disease while shining light on ways to to support our mind, body and spirit in living abundantly. This interdisciplinary book between a physician and yoga therapist is solution-oriented providing practical ways to create a new craving for feeling well, letting go of the things that no longer serve you, and implementing physical practices from the yoga tradition to achieve optimal mental, physical, and spiritual health. 

Utilizing the Chakra modality, Dr. Kyle Hoedebecke and Melissa Aguirre derail the vacuous descriptions of the Chakras by demonstrating how the Chakra blueprint plays a key role in our health and wellbeing through our neuroendocrine system and cognition. Each chapter is based upon a Chakra describing the role it plays within our lives and includes healing solutions for maladies caused by imbalance, yoga practices that help in the prevention, healing, and maintenance of the Chakra and much more. This book is an invitation for the reader to live inspired by their challenges knowing it is curriculum to grow. This book is to empower the reader to give him or herself the permission to relax and live well. Furthermore, this book is to serve as a sustainable motivator reminding the reader that we each hold the capacity to heal ourselves through the prevention, recovery, and maintenance of our wellness- we just simply need to remember our power in choice. 

Finally, do not let overwhelm or any other reason separate you from feeling well and healthy. The more you learn about your body’s physical, mental, and spiritual nature; the more you can react in ways to prevent illness and rise through ailments. All inspired by a holistic platform of intuition and choice; The Innate Design uses cost effective treatment and prevention practices such as yoga, the Chakras, and mindfulness to further healing and maintenance. 

Yoga and Mindfulness expert, Melissa Aguirre, offers a variety of practical tools to empower and educate the listener in finding balance within his or her life. Give self care a chance; we cannot serve from an empty vessel. It is time to come home to your wellness.

Joceline Tabacco

Why does it feel like it takes a disaster to bring people together as a community? Did you know that you alone you can change someone’s life with just one kind act?

My name is Joceline and I’m living proof! An anonymous, seemingly random act of kindness and visualization saved my life and I’m walking the United States for a year to spread the message that together we can change a lot of lives.

The more of us that practice random acts of kindness and daily visualization focused on an ideal peaceful world the better the results we will see. Not only in each other but within ourselves as well.  

My ultimate goal is to create a nonprofit that unites us on a global level. 

United States

My name is Joceline and I’m 39 years old. I’ve lived in California for most of my life and previously worked in Special Ed as a 1:1 Aide. 

I'm one of many survivors of sexual abuse. In 1st grade I was molested by a babysitter and internalized the experience. I let the shame and guilt consume me which caused my once joyful, radiant smile to disappear. I blocked the sexual abuse until the age of 16 years old when it surfaced and I began to hate and sabotage myself even more. 

In November of 2002 I died temporarily when I rolled my truck eight times. My truck crushed itself, and I was found inches away from the driver's side window. This was simply a miracle because I always buckle up. 

Do you believe in Angels? I do.

I remember my cousin Andrea who had died in a car accident in February of 2002, unbuckling me and placing me safely beside my truck. I woke up a week later in a body that didn’t work. Faced with the challenge of relearning to walk and talk, visualization brought me back to life. Eventually I did walk again and my ability to talk came back slowly, but my quality of life declined. Due to a damaged hypothalamus and self-medicating with food I reached the unhealthy weight of 280 pounds by 2011 and my doctor wanted to put me on steroids. 

Driving home from the doctor’s office that day I prayed for the first time in my life asking for help from the unknown. Minutes later an anonymous stranger practiced a random act of kindness by paying for my meal. A random act of kindness at a Panda Express drive thru? I was floored! The love I felt immediately elevated my frequency so high that I began to show myself love and heal myself using visualization again, veggie/fruit smoothies, and high-dose vitamin therapies among other natural things.

After experiencing three near death experiences, and climbing many mountains that rose up before me I spent many years healing my whole self, and unplugged from technology. In March of 2016 I suddenly felt a tug to open my eyes to our current reality, and was deeply saddened at the state of our world. Knowing I was meant to travel the country for some reason I began to prepare by ending my employment as a 1:1 Aide in Special Education, moving out of my apartment, and selling my old car to be ready to embark on a journey to connect and unite others. When others ask me why I feel so driven to rally everyone together I reply with the truth, "We all deserve to feel alive. I've always known that one day I would pay forward the random act of kindness that saved my life in a huge way. That day has come, and I am doing whatever it takes to make a positive impact by uplifting and uniting as many people as possible. My journey has showed me what is truly important in life, and the extreme importance of helping each other, plus always leading with kindness and love."

​Like Mahatma Gandhi, I have found that there is truth in every religion. My journey has shown me that spirituality is different for everyone and it's up to each of us to find our unique truths. For years I have walked the shamanic path before I even understood what that was. I've developed a strong spiritual connection due to my journey and the time I've spent facing myself and connecting spiritually in my own way.

Cameron Pruitt

I would like to be interviewed about the state of broadcasting and answer the question "Does uniqueness and creativity still matter in a game that is starting to cater more to syndication?"

I would also like to talk music, sports and the layers that are the male and female relationship on all levels.

United States

I go by the name of CamQuotes and I am originally from Freeport, IL. I got into broadcasting in 2009. When I graduated, I was voted "Best Broadcaster Male" and was on a pretty cool and somewhat popular show called N.L.E Radio with @JRBang as my co-host. I interned for WGCI in the Promotions Department and would eventually move to Indianapolis to be the Online Content Editor for Radio One.  While in Indy, I created a hip-hop culture content website called BehindTheRhyme.com, I was a weekend personality on the old school hip-hop station, Boom 102.9 and I started a podcast called "An Absoultely Dope Podcast" with some of my co-workers, Shaka, Destiny, Brian James and "The Producer". You can still hear episodes of our podcast on Souncloud, iTunes, Google Play and Stitcher.

Gar Michaels

Gar Michaels - inspiring man behind the life-changing orginization SAVE A LIFE A DAY.

Gar Michaels is a well-liked, popular and inspiring spokesperson that’s read in print, heard and seen on radio, television and blog/vlog, and respected right around the globe for his admirable endeavours.

But he wasn’t always the figure he is today.

How did a man who created a company with over a billion dollars in sales, a respected man in his community, a husband of nearly 30 years and father of two beautiful children end up one night in April of 2015 surrounded by about 10 sheriff’s deputies pointing their guns and rifles at his head? This the 50 year journey of a man who traveled from torment to freedom, from concealing a secret inner life to finding the light and finally living in his truth.

Gar is an inspiration to everyone. To think that this man who lost it all, from then-uncontrolled mental illness and, is now one of the most renowned health and healthy lifestyle spokespeople – not to mention millionaires - is incredible!

With Yoga (“Practicing meditation and yoga, learning to live the life in this peace and harmony was a revelation I had not experienced..”),, from being able to conquer his Bipolar II (“I suffered in silence. For over 30 years, I hid the real me”), ridding of all drugs and alcohol from his life, changing his diet completely, staying out of trouble (he event went to prison at one stage), and exercising daily (he is healthier than those half his age!), Gar Michaels was born again.

Michaels now wants to help, as well as give back, by giving away $100,000 to those who can tell him why and how in recent times they’ve made a difference to someone’s life. Via his long-running company S.A.L.A.D (Save a Life a Day), Gar is running the Heart Challenge.

The Heart Challenge works like this – you get points every time you do something nice or helpful for someone, be it walking someone’s dog, feeding the homeless, work in a soup kitchen, helping the elderly or make and have dinner with someone who might be lonely. At the end of the competition time (September 30), all your points will be accumulated and those with the highest amount wins the cash prize!

Much like S.A.L.A.D, which is an organization that exists to elevate humanity through mental wellness, physical health, spiritual fulfilment and random acts of kindness, the heart challenge is all about helping both ourselves and others.

In addition to his organization , Gar runs the online superstore OurOrganiclifeStore – which provides America with clean, healthy organic products of all types.

Hollywood has also started developing the Gar Michaels story, with  a number of big names out to play the former.

Would you be interested in talking to the inspiring, intelligent self-made man Gar Michaels?

Bryan McClure

Speak to actor Bryan McClure (Hawaii Five-0) about his new role on the series "STRINGS"

Actor Bryan McClure (Hawaii Five-0) is available to talk about his new horror-thriller series STRINGS.
Would you be keen to talk to Bryan for either a phone/Skype/email interview?

In the tradition of STRANGER THINGS, the spookfest rolls out on the small screen – in this case YouTube, beginning Monday August 15. https://www.youtube.com/c/StringsSeries

The series, said to be a mix of Teen Wolf and Saw, features such seasoned names as Taylor Hay, Paul Stevans, Bryan McClure, Saige Ryan, Joey Luthman, and famed Viner, Nik Keswani. The lead actors bring with them a combined social media following into the millions, and are led through the series by director, Stephen David Brooks, who cut his horror teeth aside the famed writer, Stephen King.

STRINGS finds the characters drugged, hooded, and bound in a room with no apparent way out. What at first glimpse seems to be a random group of teens, the characters soon learn their link is much more than originally thought and someone has a score to settle… at any cost. They must work together to solve the room’s challenges if they have any hope of escape. But is escape even possible? No one will know until the series’ final, nail-biting episode.

A mix of tension, suspense, and blood, the series keeps viewers on the edge of their seats as they try to anticipate the next turn of events. And the faces keep viewers coming back, including seventeen-year-old theme song composer and singer, Ty Desharnais, who once appeared on X-Factor.

Desharnais’s music video, Beneath the Strings, has already been released in anticipation of the series’ pilot episode launch and can be seen on the project’s channel at https://www.youtube.com/c/StringsSeries. In all, ten episodes will be released, beginning on August 15, 2016 and wrapping up on September 15, 2016. The series, whose target audience is twelve to twenty-one year olds, hopes to fill a niche that is currently missing with current YouTube series offerings. “Many teens and tweens of today are watching online and using social media rather than turning to traditional television series for their viewing interests. We hope to fill the gap that currently exists between the television offerings and paid services and open source online viewing with a quality show that will appeal to our target group,” says Grace Lho, president of the show’s parent corporation, Trajan Productions, LLC. “This audience deserves something they can really sink their teeth into and enjoy.”
