What Your Body Might Be Trying to Tell You: Why More People Are Exploring the Mind-Body Connection
Among the many wellness experiences gaining attention is Angel Farms, a retreat in Hilo, Hawaii, founded by Cindy Sellers. Since becoming a colon hydrotherapist in 1989, Sellers has developed the Angel Farms Program, which combines nutrition, herbal traditions, emotional reflection, and spiritual practices into what she describes as a holistic approach to caring for the body, mind, and spirit.
For Sellers, wellness begins with a different question: What might your body be trying to tell you? Rather than asking only what is happening in the body, she encourages people to explore what may also be happening emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. She describes health as a four-legged chair supported by the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of life. According to her philosophy, when one of those areas loses balance, the others are affected as well.
