Breathe.

Anasa means "to breathe" in Greek. Whether we live in the city or in the country, are a workaholic or retired, have kids or pets or Facebook to keep up with, it is easy to forget that life and health is sustained by our breath. Life can get hectic.

At Anasa Health, we want to remind you to take some deep breaths to calm and recenter yourself. Your breathing has a calming influence on the body and the vagus nerve's management of your parasympathetic nervous system. We all need to be reminded from time to time to close our eyes and breathe calmly and deeply in and out and let the body and mind do their part in keeping us healthy.

As a licensed naturopathic physician and acupuncturist, Dr. Stella Kondilis works with patients from young to old to help address their ailments and to help keep them balanced and well. Out of her office in the Greenwood neighborhood in Seattle, she can help with:

• minor sports injuries such as muscle sprains and strains,

• nutrition and diet,

• hormonal balancing, and

• immune support.

Dr. Kondilis is not taking new patients at this time.
