Release: The Fast Track to Love Workshop

On Sunday, April 24 from 4 to 5:30pm, Love Coach Lisa Caroselli will teach participants how to open up to love through release. Anyone desiring a loving relationship is being called by their inner being to allow it to come forth. Once you have received the vision of your right and ideal mate, your work is to release anything unlike it. What you’ll be asked to release will not only delight and surprise you, it will allow you to focus on becoming a better receiver and to attract those who are capable of giving to you.

Attendees will learn how dating offers an opportunity to send out clear signals, the value of silence, the ability to spot “keepers,” and other release tools, including meditation.

Enrollment is $35 if registered by April 22nd or $40 at the door. Pre-pay registration is highly recommended to reserve your spot.

Location: Wellness Rocks!, 28 Center Street, Clinton. For more information and to enroll, email [email protected] or visit LisasLoveLiftOff.com/events/ WellnessRocksNJ.com.

Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
