Steaking a Claim on the Web: Conyers Meat Mart Launches New Website to Educate Consumers on Meat Choices

Conyers, GA (PRWEB) July 12, 2006 -– Today’s consumers typically purchase their meat selections from large supermarket chains due to convenience and price. Oftentimes, supermarket meat selections are prepackaged for quick self-service in limited choices and cuts. With meat consumption continuing to increase, consumers want more choices and better service. As a result, The Meat Mart launches its website to help educate consumers about butcher shops, their services, and meat selections.

The Meat Mart is a family-owned butcher shop that sells beef, pork, poultry, seafood, and other specialty food items and accessories. Glenn and Dale Beard are the owners and their daughter, Chelsea, son, Wes, and son-in-law, Brian, also work in the business. With over 30 years of meat experience, Glenn decided to bring the butcher back to the people after noticing a decline in personal service and meat quality. Since 2003, The Meat Mart has been providing friendly service and fresh, high-quality assortments of meats to the public.... (Continue reading)

Drug Free Anxiety Treatment with No Negative Side Effects, Join Self Help Support Groups that Teach Relaxation

Due to the overwhelming need for effective, safe, stress management tools, Dr. Doris Jeanette, a student of Dr. Joe Wolpe, the father of Behavior Therapy, has developed a new mind body anxiety treatment. The Center for the New Psychology offers a six week, self help, support group Oct. 19th, 2005 in Philadelphia. You learn the basic skills needed to relax your body, calm your nervous system and tame irrational thoughts.



In the summer test group, every student significantly lowered their SUDS (Subjective Units of Discomfort) level and reported fewer anxiety attacks. The Center limits adult groups to 6 members. This ensures that each man or woman receives the personalized attention needed for relaxation. "Everyone can unlearn anxious behaviors and replace their anxiety attack with conscious choices and clear thinking," says Dr. Jeanette, a licensed psychologist who has been teaching people different ways to relax for thirty years. "We cover everything a person needs to be successful, such as, the difference between fear and anxiety, how to quickly stop hyperventilating and what to do when you are too anxious to relax."



Since one of the major symptoms of anxiety is obsessive thoughts that cause insomnia and compulsive behaviors, the Center's health and wellness approach teaches the relaxation skills and learning information needed to tame repetitive thoughts. Doris Jeanette is author of A Natural Process for Opening the Heart, three tapes, CDs or written transcripts that teach you how to breathe fully, calm your mind, relax your body, stop hyperventilating and stay with yourself in daily anxiety situations.



Her drug free anxiety treatment teaches lifetime relaxation skills for stress as well as practical mind body tools that improve self esteem and emotional health. Dr. Jeanette's new self help, support group starts October 19th, in Center City, Philadelphia and will continue through out the year.... (Continue reading)
