Shayn Cutino - Anja Wellness- Gives a Presentation to DNP Members

Shayn Cutino of Anja Wellness gave DNP members a presentation on mind-body medicine. Shayn had everyone engrossed when she suggested that they close their eyes and follow along with her words which demonstrated the power of the mind. Shayn is a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and pointed out many uses of hypnosis...everything from relieving stress and anxiety to losing weight and stopping smoking.

To find out more about Shayn you can visit her web site at http://www.anjawellness.com/.

As quoted by Dr. Andrew Weil: “Hypnotherapy…takes advantage of the mind-body connection to foster healing. It is also one of the most common referrals we make for out patients. I often recommend it for a wide variety of conditions”.

What is Peace?

What is peace? Peace is more than the absense of violence, it is the ceasing of being against things. Seek out what you may have been against in your life and begin to change. That does not mean that you are in agreement with it, simply do not be against it. When you do this watch how room appears in your life, how space appears in your life. Most importantly though, watch how peace appears in your life. Seek peace.

Trusting "Self"

I wrote a series of thoughts in September for meditation purposes. But, I wanted to elaborate on a particular thought...I feel it's a timely message for alot of people and would be helpful to refocus energy on this message:

We are never to worry or doubt ourselves regarding our place in the world. We are to go see, to hear, to look and to feel the many blessings of creating in our lives. We are to know that as we go, everything we need will be waiting for us to discover through feeling and then through knowing. Allow the light that you are to shine brightly and say to yourself "All is well".


Life can be a very confusing and difficult journey at times. However, those difficult times somehow always lead back to better ones if we continue our belief in ourselves. It's a simplistic statement that involves contemplation of it's impact. If one resigns themselves to always having "bad luck" then the creation of bad luck is in effect.




The journey of life isn't complete without the joy, love, laughter and light it brings. By the same token, it isn't complete without the hardships, difficulties, crying or recognizing the darkness it can bring as well.

If you never experience darkness, how will you recognize light? It is the circle of life. You have everything you need. Trust in yourself.

A Day for YOU

In this day and age, so many people are struggling with fear. Those fears may involve anxiety of keeping or finding another job, paying bills each month and quite literally, keeping a roof over your head and food on the table.

With such fundamental needs causing worry can stop you from listening to your inner voice. Fear has known to paralyze people in such a way that they are unable to draw upon the energies necessary to overcome it. In fact, fear can lead to self-loathing or punishment. Today, right now; together we will overcome fear and self-loathing. Today, right now; we will reacquaint ourselves with The Art of Self Love. Here are some ideas to treat yourself to a day that is fun, and relaxing.

• Spend the day at your favorite park. Perhaps taking a brisk walk on an unexplored pathway.
• Visit a museum and leisurely admire the paintings and sculptures.
• Browse my online store and choose from a variety of CD's which have been priced especially for 2009 stimulus. Enjoy! When you purchase, 10% of the proceeds are donated to charities.
• Take a nap without excuse
• Give yourself a manicure/pedicure/facial
• Take a bubble bath with the lights low, candles burning and soft music playing.

• Spend the day with a friend you haven't seen in awhile
• Take your family on a picnic
• Make yourself a fabulous meal of all your favorite foods. Relish each bite!
• Create a Gratitude Journal and write your first entry tonight before going to sleep.
• Listen to my CD's for relaxation and positive modification.
• Repeat positive affirmations often - refer to "The Anja Technique, the art of self love" for examples.
• You will feel refreshed, invigorated and ready to conquer fear.

You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.

September 22-
You are the holders of the light. When people fall into fear with all of the changes taking place, you are the ones who can make a difference. People are afraid of change and that is what will call you into action, for you have dedicated yourself to ...holding the flashlight for the highest outcome, without pointing the way or telling anyone which way to turn- you just shine the light so all may see.

September 23-
High heart is a gift formed from our love of humanity. "Follow your heart" truly means to follow the guidance that has already been placed within it, much like turning a paddle gently guides a canoe. One is never afraid of one's strength when that strength comes from a heart in true alignment with Spirit. Blessing to each of you in these days of holy contemplation.

September 24-

This is the beginning of the return. We must become more like little children to remember how to walk in beauty and balance upon the Earth, and realize that we are all more alike than we are different. Our true selves have always known the path to the light. Now is the time to begin the migration back to the path with heart. Espavo.

September 25-

The vibrations of truth are becoming more and more evident. If you are still in the mud know that things will get better. Old energies and old beliefs are being cleared because they not longer work. Your job now is to follow your higher self and enjoy...y your life. Travel if you can, hang out with family and friends and visualize a positive future and happiness for all. May everyone be happy and peaceful. Espavo.

September 26-

There is nothing that can keep you from manifesting your dreams except doubt and fear- the illusions that make you feel you are ever alone. Live your life, for one day, as if all your dreams will come true and watch the magic begin!

September 28-

We are never to worry or doubt ourselves regarding our place in the world. We are to go see, to hear, to look and to feel the many blessings of creating in our lives. We are to know that as we go, everything we need will be waiting for us to discover through feeling and then through knowing. Allow the light that you are to shine brightly and say to yourself "All is well".

Shayn Cutino's Words for the day

Allow your eyes, even your physical eyes, to see that you are in midst of that which you have desired. Know that what you have been asking for you already have. What comes from this is a great sense of gratitude. "You are truly blessed" - and you are -"with what you do have".

Shayn Cutino's Thought for the Day -09-09-09

You are the story and the storyteller. You are the listener. You are the being who awakens to the truth. You are the truth itself. You are the healing. You are the cause and effect. You are the knowing and the unknowing. You are choice itself. Know that you are deeply loved.

Blessed be you always.

Brentwood’s 2009 Art, Wine, and Jazz Festival Huge Success

Brentwood Grove
Sunday, August 30, 2009

By Jeremiah Peterson

If you were walking up 2nd Street in Brentwood on August 30th, 2009 you would have thought that you were at some mystical beach. Jazzstastic sounds filled the air, sand castle sculptors carefully formed their creations, and a multitude of people enjoyed wine and each other’s company. This wasn’t the beach; even better it was the Brentwood 2009 Art, Wine, and Jazz Festival. Wine makers from Napa, Brentwood, and the surrounding areas gathered to celebrate some of the finer things in life.

1st place vendor tent on Saturday went to Salvatore’s for his custom made one of a kind ravioli rollers and custom made pasta products.

Salvatore told the Brentwood Grove that his products were made by precise tool carved wood making techniques. Since Salvatore is a cabinet maker by trade he brings extensive skill sets to this new line of pasta rollers. When asked about expansion plans for the pasta rollers there seemed to be an indication that the product was about to go global over the internet.

Immediate plans for the pasta rollers include an extensive Italian festival area marketing tour.

Be Your Own “Happy Place”

Have you ever heard someone tell you to “go to your happy place”? This is often a recommendation we receive when we are dealing with a lot of stress or heartache. The point is to escape, as least in our minds, to a different environment in which we can experience peace and serenity. We are all unique individuals, so I am sure that everyone’s “happy place” is specific to their personalities. Some may envision a quiet beach at sunset with the surf rushing towards the shore. Others may prefer a seat behind home plate at Yankee Stadium during Game 7 of the World Series. Perhaps you transport to a huge amusement park with every roller coaster at your immediate disposal. What if you could make any situation a part of your “happy place” simply because you are there and happy with yourself.

Each of us has the ability to obtain a greater level of confidence and self-love that will allow us to be happy right where we are. To achieve this goal, we must first recognize what is preventing us from being able to enjoy true happiness. Maybe you already know the obstacles in your own mind. Are you struggling with jealousy related to a past relationship, a competitive sibling, or even a stranger? Was your self-esteem damaged in childhood by parents and other mentors who always told you that you were not good enough? Do you harbor guilt from some regrettable decisions that you made earlier in life? You can move forward from these emotional shackles.

In my new book The Anja Technique, I discuss the ten primary obstacles that prevent us from experiencing complete self-love and then guide you through relaxation techniques and affirmation exercises that will teach your brain to reject the thoughts that are holding you back. The obstacles, no matter how pervasive, can be removed for good!

I hope you will read The Anja Technique and listen to the CD, then begin your journey towards a happy place that is with you no matter where you are.
