Here's How You Can Save A Life!

During American Stroke Month, we’re reminded that recognizing the signs of a stroke — and acting quickly — can save a life.

That’s why awareness matters. Knowing the B.E. F.A.S.T. warning signs and seeking emergency care immediately can make a significant difference in recovery outcomes and long-term health.

At Circe Healthcare, we encourage you to take a moment this month to familiarize yourself with the signs of stroke — not just for yourself, but for your loved ones and community.

To learn more about stroke prevention, visit the American Heart Association for guidance and tools that can help you stay informed and prepared.

Dr. Patricia Van Santeen, L,Ac, DAOM, officially launched her 4-week Mindfulness Course and the class participants have been taking intentional steps toward becoming more present, grounded, and mindful in their everyday lives. 

They’ve been learning practical mindfulness techniques and creating space for reflection and emotional wellness. It’s been incredible to watch each participant grow throughout the course. 

And this is just the beginning — more mindfulness courses and experiences are coming soon at Circe Healthcare!

Did you know that heart disease is the #1 killer of women?

Oftentimes as women, we put our careers, families, and daily to-do lists ahead of our own well-being. But true, long-term health starts with the proactive steps you take TODAY. This #WomensHealthWeek, we’re challenging you to pause, prioritize yourself, and take charge of your future self.

We are offering a FREE Downloadable Strategic Health Checklist for Women! It’s designed to help you track your screenings, note your key numbers, and stay accountable. 

What happens when someone you love is diagnosed with Parkinson's disease?

In her newest article, Dr. Jones-Poland shares the story of her stepfather, John Yonushonis, whose Parkinson’s diagnosis at just 58 years old changed the course of his life — from ending his career early to losing the ability to do something he loved most: throwing a football.

But this story isn’t about loss. It’s about resilience, hope, and discovering unexpected healing through integrative therapies. Over the course of his 20-year journey with Parkinson’s, John found comfort and strength through music therapy, boxing, Tai Chi, mindfulness practices, and community support. These therapies not only improved his quality of life, but helped him continue living fully despite the challenges of the disease.
