Daily Candy Feel Better Guide

Life’s a Witch
Feel Better Already Guide ’08


Everyone’s got issues. Even sweet, braided Dorothy. (Socks with heels?) Whether you’re incapable of love, can’t think straight (or at all), or need to get some balls, here are ways to make your trip down that brick road of life a little less bumpy this year.

A Heart
Zumba instructor (and former Colombian soap star) Wally Diaz has earned a cult following with booty-shaking classes that feel more like a party than a workout (Maria Verdeja School of Ballet, 123 Almeria Avenue, Coral Gables; 305-448-6717) .

A Brain
Chiropractor Dr. Lauren Kolman (flpartnersinrecovery.org; 305-893-8822) dishes up fifteen-minute sessions of auriculotherapy, a needleless, acupuncture-like ear therapy meant to restore healthy brain chemistry and help you kick everything from smoking to emotional eating.

A Home
Massage, that is. From just a little neck TLC to deep tissue work, Biscayne Park-based massage therapist Donna Giamo (786-346-0353; dgiamo@aol.com) comes to you, delivering treatments that would make even the Wicked Witch melt.

Courage
Life coach Marian Morgan (marianmorgan.com; 305-807-1115) helps people realize their big ideas by starting small, with a 30-minute coaching phoner to give them a taste of how to get their lives back on track.

And Your Little Dog, Too
Dr. Josie Beug (305-987-8684; drjosie@comcast.net) specializes in holistic treatments and house calls. She does body readings to analyze Fluffy’s chi, and treatments range from acupuncture to Chinese herbs to be administered at home.
