Beat summer heat with a delicious watermelon salad
Michele Arnold
I became an acupuncturist because it is a way for me to help people relieve pain, feel better within themselves, have more energy, and live a higher quality of life without drugs or side-effects. Using what I know I can help more people by teaching them how to apply natural remedies and techniques to enhance their own self-healing abilities. It is deeply satisfying to know that I have made a difference in someone’s life. When you can live a more active, healthier, and happier life it improves your personal life, family life, and professional life. The impact is far-reaching influencing a great number of things.
This is so refreshing, and delicious. I was so surprised at how good it tasted the first time I made this. It is perfect for hot summer weather.
