The Khader Center: Celebrating 25 Years of Offering Outstanding Nutrition Consultation

May 26, 2015 by The Inside Press

dina_headshot2015_smallA Commitment to Individualized, Integrated Nutrition has Helped Thousands to Better Health

The Khader Center, Westchester County’s premier integrated health and nutrition provider, is celebrating founder Dina Khader’s twenty-fifth year of private practice in Mount Kisco. In her quarter-century of serving Westchester residents with targeted, highly personalized nutrition consultation, Dina Khader, MS, RD, CDN, MIfHI, has built a reputation as a dedicated, caring, knowledgeable health care practitioner and a source of inspiration to clients and colleagues alike.

Ms. Khader is a registered dietitian, holding a Master of Science degree in nutrition from New York Medical College. She is a Master Fellow and featured presenter with the Institute for Human Individuality, and works closely with the European Institute of Personalized Prevention. She is the author of The Food Combining/Blood Type Diet Solution, and is frequently sought as a lecturer, author, and expert commentator for radio, television, and print media.

“I began offering nutrition consulting in 1990, with a real commitment to getting to know the specific needs and preferences of each client, so that I could provide customized nutrition plans fine-tuned to each individual,” explains Ms. Khader. “Right away, people were surprised how effective a carefully-tailored nutrition solution could be, and how much easier it is to stick to a plan that works so well. A lot has changed in the last twenty-five years, but that dedication to individual care hasn’t wavered, because it has made such a big difference for so many people.”

Ms. Khader’s unwavering dedication, as well as the considerable success her clients have experienced and the word-of-mouth reputation that success has generated, has been a major factor in her success. In 2009, she founded The Khader Center, a full-service integrated nutrition center that offers a number of targeted holistic health solutions, including Ms. Khader’s expert nutrition advice. The Khader Center quickly gained popularity as a friendly, welcoming place to achieve optimal health.

Sew Happy Sewing: Hand and Machine Sewing Instruction for Kids throughout Westchester

May 20, 2015 by The Inside Press

Wainwright_37Sew Happy Sewing, Inc began in 2012 when Kim Mulcahy decided to turn her hobby in to a cottage industry. She realized that sewing was a life skill that was missing and yet desperately needed by the women and kids in her town. Now, in 2015, the Sew Happy Sewing program is being taught at after school clubs in over 13 schools in Westchester and Kim has 3 talented instructors who, under her guidance, teach sewing in a nurturing, grass roots fashion. Sew Happy Sewing covers both hand and machine sewing but Kim is a keen supporter of hand sewing and often explains to the kids that they can take out a needle and thread anywhere but not a sewing machine! As with everything it’s about finding a balance!

Sew Happy Sewing also offers “boutique” camps in Rye, Greenwich and Chappaqua. “Threads” Camp is tailored to inspire potential fashion designers and fashionistas out there. The difference between the Sew Happy “Threads” Camp and other fashion-type camps is that we actually teach the kids how to design and SEW wearable garments. At “Threads” Camp, the kids work through fun design challenges, sometimes in groups and sometimes alone to create unique garments and they plan and orchestrate their own fashion show on the last day.

Wainwright_8“Summer Of Sewing” Camp offers a combination of sewing projects from stuffed animals and gadget cozy’s to pj pants so it’s a great introduction to sewing allowing the kids to try their hand at many different areas of sewing.

The kids who attend our camps make great new friends and connections and often move on to advanced sewing classes and workshops with Sew Happy. We offer the camp to ages 8 – 17 and then we group the kids by age with age appropriate projects and assignments.

Sew Happy offers two birthday party packages, “Sew Fun” is hand sewing for ages 7 and up and offers a choice of super cute projects like bunny puppet, mouse-in-a-tin, gadget cozy or cup-cake softee. “Extreme Sewing” is a machine sewing party where the kids decorate fabric with decorative machine stitches and then they make it into a pillow.

In addition, Sew Happy Sewing has regular workshops in Rye and is planning to expand in to other areas of Westchester this year. Private lessons for individuals or groups are also available. Call 917 885 7716 for more information, visit www.sewhappyusa.net or email Kim at kim@sewhappyusa.net.

Stress Relief via a Facial…and Goodbye Winter Dryness too

April 2, 2015 by The Inside Press

Facial2I don’t get facials very often; when I have time and feeling solvent in my single existence (or when I finally cave in from stress overload), I’ll usually opt for something that also attends to my poor aching back. However, this time, my face was truly feeling the impact of this long, hard winter. I know I don’t have to explain that. So I decided to visit Bellava Spa in Bedford Hills, a warm and welcoming full service spa facility, no matter what service you choose.

Phyllis DeFreeze performed the traditional European facial and you will all have to excuse me for not taking notes during this precious hour of pure escape (rather defeats the purpose). Suffice it to say that the state of relaxation took me through another busy day and my goal of relieving dryness felt more than met upon touching my new shiny punim (Yiddish for face).

I do know Phyllis used eucalyptus oil at the beginning and the end for a special touch, but it was everything in the relaxing middle of this facial that you might also want to make an appointment for to experience. www.bellavaspa.com

Fine Jewelry at Whole Share Prices during ICD’s 50% Sale!

March 28, 2015 by The Inside Press

icd-saleThere are extra special reasons to mark your calendar and get excited for ICD’s annual sale.  In an effort to make room for new collections, the staff at ICD Contemporary Jewelry is offering current collections for half its normal price, in fact, at whole share prices!

“Our customers love the opportunity of getting jewelry at the wholesale price,” says Varda Singer, owner of ICD.  “This is the way we give back to so many of our loyal customers. Some have been shopping at our store for almost 40 years.”

Varda also understands that everyone appreciates a bargain from time to time.  “This is the time! “ she said.

One customer who visited the store was pleased to find a sale had just kicked off on Friday. She bought four pairs of earrings–for herself and as gifts for friends. Smart lady.

“This is what it’s all about,” said Varda. “Spring cleaning for us—a bargain for our customers.”
