Natural Healing Arts of Sarasota
Dr. Eric Larson has been practicing chiropractic for 12 years and additionally has 20 years of massage therapy experience. Dr. Larson's wellness approach at Natural Healing Arts integrates neurology, massage therapy, acupuncture, physical therapy and nutrition. All these modalities are available on-site as well as x-ray capabilities. Dr. Larson's goal is to provide his clients with a superior program of care by incorporating all aspects of pain management and rehabilitation in one facility.
Dr. Larson is a best-selling co-author of The Best Kept Health Secret Revealed, and has created his own local TV program, “The Wellness Show”, which aired twice per week for two years. He traveled for ten years as massage therapist and chiropractor for the rock band PHISH. Dr. Larson enjoys donating his skills internationally on chiropractic mission trips and frequently lectures locally on topics such as posture, headaches, whiplash, neck and back pain, carpal tunnel, stress and nutrition.
Dr. Larson strives to provide the highest quality chiropractic care for each of his individual clients. He seeks to educate our community that life and health come from within, and the maintenance of health is far superior to the treatment of disease. He and his team strive to minimize the detrimental effects of subluxations - misalignments of spinal vertebrae, which interrupt vital nerve flow, and thus the body's ability to self regulate and self heal. His purpose is to gently "adjust" the vertebrae back into alignment and provide safe, effective, healing results to as many people as possible each year.
Dr. Larson currently practices with his wellness team at
Natural Healing Arts
2030 Bee Ridge Road, (near US41, behind Walgreens)
Sarasota, FL.

Suncoast Blood Bank
Suncoast Communities Blood Bank (SCBB) is an independent, not-for-profit organization that, as a community first responder, provides all blood products required by select medical facilities in southwest Florida. Our mission is to provide a reliable supply of the highest quality blood products and services. In addition to collecting over 24,000 units of blood, SCBB provides a wide range of blood services to several hospitals and medically-ordered therapeutic blood procedures to outpatients and inpatients throughout the region. In 2008 SCBB performed over 66,600 patient tests and over 334,000 donor tests.
When O.K. Fike and Dr. Millard White founded the Lower West Coast Blood Bank, now known as Suncoast Communities Blood Bank, in February 1949, they planted the seeds of a humanitarian idea that would blossom over five decades. For almost 60 years, tens of thousands of dedicated volunteers have provided the critical life-saving gift of blood to our local hospitals and patients. In 1949 the Blood Bank collected 551 pints of blood, now called “units.” Today, more than 1,000 blood drives are held annually in our community, and over 24,000 units of blood are collected. In 2008 SCBB directly transfused over 4,000 patients. The success of this organization rests completely on the generosity of volunteer donors.
While reliance upon donations has not changed, the technology involved with blood banking has experienced incredible transformation. Safety of the blood supply has evolved to unprecedented levels. Strict federal regulations assure that blood products maintain the highest quality. That means a thorough screening of donors, extensive testing of each unit and numerous other mandatory compliance checks. SCBB operates within full compliance of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), consistently earns accreditation by the Association of American Blood Banks, and maintains membership in America's Blood Centers. Our blood supply has never been safer. Yet, due to misconceptions and unfounded fear, only a miniscule segment of the population donates blood regularly. SCBB has recently incorporated new FDA-approved blood management software that tracks each individual unit of blood from the time of collection, through testing, matching and actual patient transfusion. This provides comprehensive safety assurance. SCBB's system sets the standard for the highest level of blood compatibility and safety monitoring.
Changes in technology have resulted in new instruments that improve blood collection. Today, donors can give specific components of blood, utilizing instruments that are calibrated to each donor's physical make-up. This breakthrough technology, called apheresis (a fur e sis), allows donors to give additional blood products, reduces the time it takes to donate, increases comfort for the donor and results in fewer - if any - side effects. Apheresis is an automated system that resembles a small centrifuge that collects and separates the blood while the donation is taking place. It allows SCBB to provide its hospitals with more consistent and safer blood components while affording donors a more comfortable experience. Most importantly, apheresis allows donors to donate twice as much blood half as often - something no one would have envisioned when blood banking first began. Many of these technological changes have been integrated into the traditional symbol of blood donation - the bloodmobile. SCBB has purchased two new bloodmobiles and retrofitted others to provide for new technological advances, to be more convenient for donors and to maintain a state-of-the-arts program for the community.
While the blood supply is the safest it has ever been, blood banks face a serious challenge - how to address the ever shrinking pool of eligible donors. This pool of eligible donors is dwindling at a staggering rate, while population and demand continues to grow. A new study reported in the publication "TRANSFUSION" states the number of individuals in the U.S. who are eligible to donate blood is smaller than previously believed. The new figures suggest that only 38 percent of the US population, rather than 60 percent, are eligible to donate blood. And with anticipated demographic changes, that percentage is likely to drop even more. The population of eligible blood donors is reduced, based on exclusions due to high-risk behaviors for transmitting infectious diseases, travel with its special disease exposures, presence of chronic diseases, use of medications, and aging. The dramatic impact of these exclusions is intensified by the loss of the WWII generation. This "Greatest Generation,” those who established blood banks in the 1940's, believed wholeheartedly in donating blood as a civic and patriotic duty. "Baby Boomers" are rapidly approaching the age at which they will require transfusions, and their successors, the "Gen Xers," do not give as often as their parents and grandparents. New technologies cannot fully compensate for the diminishing numbers of donors. Cultivating the next generation of blood donors is the new challenge facing blood banks.
Technological advances are quickly changing the landscape in blood banking. For example, research is currently being conducted to create artificial blood to be used as a temporary substitute until real blood can be transfused. Further out, it is likely that individuals will be able to have their own blood cloned for future use. Other research is directed toward converting blood types on hand (i.e., converting A or B blood to type O) to meet the specific blood type needs and thus preventing blood shortages. While these new technologies may help to stabilize the response to the ebb and flow of demand, there is no true substitute for human blood.

Sunshine Everyday was created in 2006 by Sarasota resident, Sandy Norton, after her cousin announced to her one day that she loved to dance so much that she was going to “Dance Everyday!” A light bulb went off as Sandy, who is all about girlfriends and having fun, thought “Right! Do what you love and love what you do . . .EVERYDAY !”
And so, the idea was born and the designs just kept coming. Sing, Laugh, Play! Peace, Pray, Love! Breathe! Celebrate! Hope! Soar! If you love to do it, if you're passionate about it, if you're all about it, then why not do it or say it or feel it or show it . . . everyday ?!
Anyone who knows Sandy would agree that she has a positive, loving attitude towards all living things. From family and friends to animals and her garden, Sandy believes that kindness is the most important virtue. She has also come to learn that a positive attitude is key to a happy and abundant life. This passion for the positive is reflected in Sunshine Everyday, where Sandy's goal is to help others express their passions and positive feelings.

Sunshine Everyday designs are whimsical and fun, with cute little Sunny Ray displaying his antics and poses on the front and back of every shirt. Whether laughing or playing or dreaming, Sunny Ray is there to show how it's done!
Sunshine Everyday shirts are not your ordinary, run-of-the-mill tees. Rather, we work with manufacturers who produce good quality, fashion tees in the latest styles and colors. Most of our clothing is either 100% cotton or a blend of cotton with a small percent of rayon or spandex. In an effort to offer a “green” option, we also offer many shirts and hats made of more eco-friendly fibers such as bamboo, hemp, and organic cotton.
Because women come in all shapes and sizes, we have selected a variety of shirts in all shapes and sizes. Some shirts are tapered and more fitted, others are a looser, more classic cut. With V-necks, tanks, 3/4 length sleeves, camis, longsleeves, and even styles for kids to choose from, we're sure you'll find a style and color that will make your Sun Shine !!

Psychotherapy
With quiet understanding, patience, and care, Lurline's work can take you to the wonderful clarity of who you are now and your power to create your life from this moment. Your recognition and release of the beliefs and judgments that block your happiness, success and well-being are an essential part of a dynamic process. Exploring the meaning of your dreams is often helpful as well. You learn to attune to and heed the messages of your higher self, your inner guidance system. Increased self-confidence, better decisions (decreased stress), improved relationships, and increased wellness are a natural consequence.
If you experience discouragement, depression, grief, anxiety, worry, communication problems or any emotional, spiritual, or stress related issue that you would like to master, a good place to start is with a confidential consultation with Lurline!
Lurline has been in the private practice of psychotherapy and psychoanalysis for more that thirty years. After practicing and teaching in New York City, she opened her practice in Sarasota twenty-five years ago.
She counsels adults of all ages and offers relationship coaching to couples.
In the course of living in an area with many retirees, Lurline has developed experience as a geriatrician and will work with seniors of all ages. This may include working with those who have early alzheimers or working with family who are coping with a member who has dementia. She feels honored to also work with those in the process of dying and death. Medicare assignment is accepted.
Lurline's ability to integrate training as a psychotherapist, psychoanalyst, yoga and meditation teacher, Avatar Master, and energy worker makes for a rare combination of skills. She loves to learn! Recently, she has added Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) to her repertoire and can show you how to use it for rapid relief of symptoms.
Her office is in downtown Sarasota and sessions are by appointment. You may reach her at (941) 366-0223. Visit www.counselingsrq.com.

Harmony Stones By Terese
(941) 953-5049
“Add a little Harmony to your Life”
Order you one of a kind creation TODAY!
These Harmony Stone creations represent the harmonious movements visible in nature. They combine the fluid strokes used by ancient calligraphers, with unique expressions of nature's gifts, on one of a kind stones. Each stone has a special energy in its natural form that illumines a different place and time of origin on earth. There is no better fit than calligraphy and nature illustrations on stone. Their simple beauty reminds us of what is important in life, and what to focus our thoughts on. The collection here was created to touch our hearts, and to invite us to invoke the peace and the wholeness of our nature.
There are no two stones alike, varying in color, size, shape, markings and texture. Nature only creates one of a kind. My stones are protected with a sealant for outdoor use and look amazing in a garden setting, with a water feature, with shell, mulch, gravel and groundcover. They are also designed with indoor use in mind. They can lay flat with a votive candle on top, be used as a centerpiece with flowers, fruits or veggies, be displayed on a metal photo stand, be mounted on a wall suspended on wrought iron brackets, or be displayed on a shelf with a candle in front lighting the design.
My nature illustrations on stone, painting nature on nature seemed the most perfect fit for me. I am bringing Man, Nature and Earth back together as one. Calligraphy is Man's expression, the painting of the heart. Nature is seen thru my illustrations of birds, trees, flowers, butterflies and creatures of all kinds. Earth is the one of a kind stones themselves, each one so very unique and beautiful, representing a different place and time on earth. During this time more than ever, the message that man is truly connected to nature, the earth and her healing is so very important. My symbols on each stone convey a message, a simple, beautiful reminder of what to focus our thoughts on. Peace, balance, Love, Togetherness, Friendship, Family, Patience, Tranquility, Present in the Moment, Follow Your Heart, Harmony and Rejoice in the Journey, just to name of few of my favorites

MonaVie is a nutritional beverage which features a delicious blend of the Brazilian acai berry - one of nature's top super foods - and 18 other beneficial fruits. This synergistic blend delivers powerful antioxidants and phytonutrients to help fight free radicals and maintain your body's overall health.
In addition to Mona Vie's original blend, there are two other varieties of Mona Vie, each with a distinct blend of fruit juices and health benefits:
MonaVie Active features the additional benefits of plant-derived glucosamine, which has been scientifically shown to promote healthy joint function by improving mobility and flexibility.
MonaVie Pulse delivers added heart health benefits with plant sterols and resveratrol and omega 3 fatty acids. Scientifically formuated with your heart in mind this delicious formula offers key nutritional support to those watching their cholesterol.
MonaVie's patent-pending process ensures you are getting the highest quality nutrition with the highest ORAC value available in a whole-food fruit juice blend anywhere on the planet. Other products claim to contain acai, but their antioxidant capacity cannot compare to Mona Vie. Four ounces of Mona Vie contains the antioxidant capacity of thirteen servings of fruit and/or vegetables.
Debbie hosts regular scheduled “Tasting Parties” to introduce interested parties to the health benefits of this wonderful superfood. MonaVie also offers a viable business opportunity that has been featured in Success magazine three times in the past four years.
