One. was proud to be a part of last weeks Wellness Fair,
ReNew You
, held at Annapolis High School. The title of the event was especially near and dear to our hearts, because it is exactly this concept that we are constantly encouraging.
As we begin the second month of the new year, we hope you take time out of your busy lives and schedules to "Renew You", whether that is with a massage, guided meditation to destress, taking a new class, or a reset on old habits. One. can help you with ALL of these things to get you focused on healing yourself in the New Year.
To all of you that are joining us for the first time, welcome. We hope you stay with us, and find our monthly newsletter informative, helpful and full of new ideas to keep that feeling of "ReNew You" alive all year long.
As always, we hope you enjoy reading our newsletter as much as we enjoy creating it for you.
Yours in Wellness,
Jennifer and Christina

Project Fleri
One. is always so proud of all the incredible things that our clients are a part of, locally and globally, and the Booth family is no different.
This is a recent article in Moorings from St. Mary's in which the Booth family talks about the amazing things they are doing in Haiti.
Check out what Emily Booth has accomplished with her Project Fleri!
Emily Booth is a recent graduate from Spring Hill College, with a degree in International Studies. Since Emily was 13 when the devastating earthquake struck Haiti, she has been dedicated to helping its people. Once she gained her passion for helping those in Haiti, she began traveling there multiple times a year to support the community of Morne L’hopital. During her time in Haiti, she has formed a family-like relationship with the people of the St. Judes parish. Through these close relationships, Emily acquired an awareness of what Haitians genuinely need to succeed, and she decided that it was time for her to take up her own initiative to support those who she has grown so close to throughout the years. Project Fleri is her dream: to help the kids she loves flourish in their careers, families, and education. It is evident to her that orphanages do not solve the problems in Haiti, and her family based approach is so that kids’ futures are invested in longterm, instead of being sent to fend for themselves after graduation.
Poject Fleri has focused on providing education and humanitarian efforts to the St. Jude community in Morne l’hôpital. They have been able to successfully form a school lunch program and a transitional home for boys where their sponsors provide for their education and daily care. Starting in summer 2019 they extended their program with a new initiative. As the children from St. Judes and their transitional home come close to graduating from high school, it has become apparent that the next step in the process is to create jobs. While continuing efforts to provide children with education, they plan to help families and graduating students find jobs. They firmly believe that solutions in Haiti are created through education, jobs, family reunification, and good choices.

Creamy Mushroom Soup With Chives
By ROBIN BASHINSKY November 2019
(Jennifer recently took a stab at this easy winter recipe from Real Simple, and it was AMAZING, almost like a clam chowder, but with mushrooms-that is my actual final product up above. If you have problems with dairy, try with cashew cream instead. Use 1 1/2cups of rinsed cashews, drain off the water, then blend them on high with 1 cup (235mL) of the vegetable broth in a
high-powered blender
(about 1-2 minutes). Substitute this for the heavy cream)
Few simple recipes are as satisfying as a classic mushroom soup. This is because mushrooms are high in umami, the “fifth taste,” which roughly translates to savory. This easy version calls for cremini and shiitake mushrooms, both of which have deep, earthy notes. The key to a luxuriously thick soup are the russet potatoes, which don’t distract from the mushroom flavor, but add starch and body. Oh, and a drizzle of heavy cream doesn’t hurt.
Headnote by Lindsay Maitland Hunt
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil,
- 1 small yellow onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 8 ounces thinly sliced fresh cremini mushrooms (2½ cups),
- divided 8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and thinly sliced (2 cups), (or really whatever mushrooms you like, I used oyster mushrooms) frozen mushrooms work too
- 4 cups organic chicken bone broth or vegetable broth
- 2 medium russet potatoes, chopped
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (not needed if you don't have them)
How to Make It
Step 1
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high. Add onion, garlic, 2 cups creminis, and 1½ cups shiitakes. Cook, stirring often, until softened, 6 to 7 minutes. Add broth, potatoes, and salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, 15 to 18 minutes. Stir in cream and pepper.
Step 2
Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add remaining ½ cup each creminis and shiitakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
Step 3
Ladle soup into bowls; top with chives and sautéed mushrooms

Vibrating sensors could identify blood biomarkers, improve early-stage detection, treatment of brain injury from concussions and numerous diseases
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. –
Purdue University
researchers have found a method of identifying biological markers in small amounts of blood that they believe could be used to detect a myriad of diseases, infections and different medical conditions at early stages.
One of the first uses for the test could be the early detection of traumatic brain injury in athletes, particularly high school football and soccer players. A Purdue research team, known as the
Purdue Neurotrauma Group
, began studying the effects of head injuries in 2009 and found that concussions are usually caused by multiple hits over time and not by a single blow, as commonly believed.
The test the Purdue researchers developed can detect minute amounts of proteins, including protein from glial cells, which surround neurons in the brain. The proteins are secreted in relatively high concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid of victims of traumatic brain injury. Prior studies have found that a small amount of fluid leaked through the blood-brain barrier and got into the bloodstream of victims.
“Essentially the idea is that if you can measure anything that passes through the blood-brain barrier from the brain into the blood, it's a problem because it should stay in the brain,” Nauman said.
The test also is inexpensive so a high school football team could do several mass screenings a season, Rhoads said. Nauman said the Purdue Neurotrauma Group hopes to test high school athletes next fall.
The test also could be used for the early detection of Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, Nauman said. “You can basically look for general neurodegeneration, not just in athletes.”
The researchers believe the test also could be used to detect countless other diseases. They are looking for licensees to use the test to search for other small amounts of protein that are early signs of disease.

Wherever you see a plastic bag recycling bin in retail stores, you can also recycle your bags, wraps, and films. You do not need to take these items back to the same place where you bought them. Even if you purchased the packages online, you can still take them to any retail store with a plastic bag recycling bin.
