speaking on healthy living in NYC

Virginia owned and operated Whole Wheat ’N Wild Berrys, one of the first natural food restaurants in New York City, for more than 20 years. She is now a full time writer and lecturer.

Living Healthy In New York City – New York City has more of everything; more people, more noise, more pollution, and certainly more stress. But it also has more solutions to all that stress. Where else can you find a health club that is open 24 hours a day, get a mini back rub in Midtown, or eat organic food in elegant surroundings? Find out everything you need to know to live healthy in NYC: the best spas, environmental stores, natural food stores, natural food restaurants, yoga classes, Chinese pharmacies, meditation centers, and urban retreats - plus tips on vitamins, exercise, diet, and alternative medicine.

Starting Over At Mid-Life – Today, many people find themselves starting over at a time when they thought they would be winding down. Starting a new life is difficult at any age, but it is especially challenging when you are in your forties, fifties, or older. Yet within that “crisis” is tremendous opportunity and energy that can transform and empower every area of your life. Virginia will talk about the mental, emotional, and spiritual tools you need to deal with change; the use of role models; the importance of taking care of your body; and how to create a belief system that allows you to create your vision.

Using Ancient Spiritual Laws To Solve Modern Dilemmas – Spiritual or universal laws are absolute and they exist whether we are conscious of them or not. Knowing them and using them can be the most powerful and transformational tool you will ever learn. They are simple yet profound and can help you to create whatever you desire whether it is health, prosperity, love, or career.

Slowing Down To Save Your Life – Living in a place like NYC, we take in more information in a single day than our ancestors did in their entire life. The speed at which we live, travel, and transmit information is mind-boggling. But at what cost? How does it effect our physical and emotional health? And what can we do about it? By slowing down on a mental, physical, and emotional level, you can deepen the quality of your life. Virginia will give specific techniques as well as an approach to take back your life and to start living more fully.

Astrology – Astrology has been around since ancient times, yet today it is experiencing a renaissance. No longer thought of as only a means of prediction, astrology is emerging as a potent diagnostic tool in areas such as medicine, psychotherapy, and Wall Street. Understanding your birth chart can unlock valuable potential and help you discover your true purpose in life. Learn the role of the planets, signs, and houses and find out how astrology can make a difference in your life. This is a colorful and exciting lecture that will bring this ancient art alive for you.
