Family Movie Night at the Library: Hotel Transylv

Friday, May 17th, 7:00 PM

Animated Feature
Voices by: Adam Sandler, Andy Samburg, Selena Gomez
Columbia Pictures; Directed by Genndy Tartakovsky
Rated PG; 91 minutes; 2012 

Welcome to the Hotel Transylvania, Dracula's lavish five-stake resort, where monsters and their families can live it up, free from meddling from the human world. Over-protective of his teenage daughter, Mavis, Dracula fabricates tales of elaborate dangers to dissuade her adventurous spirit. As a haven for Mavis, he opens the Hotel Transylvania, where his daughter and some of the world's most famous monsters Frankenstein and his bride, the Mumm, a family of werewolves, and more can kick back in safety and peace. For Drac, catering to all of these legendary monsters is no problem but his world could come crashing down when one ordinary guy stumbles on the hotel and takes a shine to Mavis.

We hope to see you there!

Whole Foods Nutrition Talk by Sara Oski

Are you interested in learning more about a different approach for healthy eating? Join us on Monday May 20th, 7:00 PM at the East Kingston Public Library, 47 Maplevale Road, East Kington, NH.

Everyone knows that the foundation of great health is great nutrition. We all try to do our best to eat well on a daily basis, but it isn’t always an easy thing to accomplish.

What you put in your body impacts everything about you.  It determines how you feel every day, your frame of mind, energy level, how well you ward off illness and even your outlook on life. With so much at stake and so much information out there - often confusing and conflicting - it’s hard to know which way to turn to get it right.  And getting it right is crucial because your health and well being depend on it.
Sara will guide you through the nutrition maze, help you separate fact from fiction and put you on the right track toward exceptional health and wellness.

Sara is a graduate of the University of New Hampshire with a BA in Psychology and a minor in Nutrition. She is passionate about expanding her knowledge of whole foods nutrition and effective nutrition therapy. 

Sara is certified as a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner by the Nutritional Therapy Association. Her background includes extensive experience in all aspects of small organic farming in the New England area.

by Dr. Dan Eyink

Spend an evening with Dr. Dan talking about one of our most common mental disorders on Wednesday, May 8th, 7:00 PM at the East Kingston Public Library, 47 Maplevale Road, East Kington, NH.

Attention Deficit Disorder/Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a brain based condition, typically beginning in childhood and continuing into adulthood that is characterized by poor attention, distractibility and/or hyperactive and impulsive behaviors.  It is one of the most common mental disorders that left untreated can lead to poor school or work performance, poor social relationships and low self esteem.
 
Dr. Dan's Natural Healing Center uses a treatment protocol for ADD/ADHD that involves nutrition therapy to provide specific nutrients to the five key brain systems, increase blood flow to the brain and balance hormone levels within the brain.  He finds that nutrition therapy used in conjunction with behavior or psychotherapy can be extremely effective in ameliorating symptoms of ADD/ADHD.

Daniel Eyink, M.D. is a graduate of the University of Massachusetts, and he completed his internship and residency in internal medicine at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center in Portland, Oregon. He is board certified in both Internal Medicine and Medical Acupuncture and has advanced certifications in Auricular Medicine and Nutrition Response Testing.
