You CAN Dine Out & Eat Healthy!
Join Owner James Rajiah at the newest hot spot in Fort
Myers, Nirvana Fusion!
Do you stay home rather than sabotage your diet by
going out to eat with friends? Not sure what to order in
restaurants when you're on a diet or if you have special
dietary restrictions or health concerns?
Worry no more! Learn how you CAN enjoy yourself with
just a few adjustments, and how to spot the healthy
alternatives on most menus and favorites you already enjoy!
Enjoy an evening of networking,
health & wellness in a relaxing atmosphere with friendly people
who share a common interest in learning to live healthy &
happier lives.
Saving a Life is as easy as A-E-D
In the time it takes you to read this information, Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) will have claimed another victim. Statistics show that over 300,000 Americans die of SCA every year. Up to 50,000 of these deaths could have been prevented if someone on scene had initiated the Cardiac Chain of Survival and an automated external defibrillator (AED) had been available for immediate use at the time of the emergency. The American Red Cross has a vision of one person in every household being trained in First Aid and CPR lifesaving skills, and all Americans being within four minutes of an AED with someone trained to use it in the event of sudden cardiac arrest. My brother's life was recently saved with an AED device that was available at the country club where he was hosting a family function in New York. I was surprised to find out that the State of Florida currently has no mandate on having these life saving devices in schools, stadiums, large venues or other public places where crowds gather. Another article on Dr Craig Levine Donate to the Robbie Levine Foundation AEDs save lives. Period. The American Red Cross will be at Wellness Wednesday on February 24th to share more information on the importance of First Aid, CPR & AED Training, not just for you, but for your employees, co-workers, family members & friends. Make a donation to the Robbie Levine Foundation

will receive extra chances to win prizes. DDB can use baby and children's clothes, balms, lotions, shampoo, cribs,

The July 2009 Wellness Wednesday Fundraiser at the VIP Center in North Fort Myers was a huge success, raising not just money, but awareness for the Visually Impaired Persons Center. The Calendar Girls performed for the crowd, and we gave away hundreds of dollars of donated prizes in the raffle. Once again, Nick Abram was our guest massage therapist, providing free chair massage and we had an enthusiastic crowd who all enjoyed an evening of health, wellness and awareness of an organization that has helped countless blind and visually impaired people since 1974. If you would like to donate to the VIP Center, you may contact them at www.VIPCenter.org or call 239-997-7797.
