Claire_Power_MurphyClaire Power Murphy’s Biography

“It will be very great when humanity is improving every single year of their lives,” proclaims Claire Power Murphy, director of The Self-Rejuvenation Center, Inc. The healer, teacher and adviser has lived an illustrious life, seeing herself and her family healed despite unfortunate circumstances.

Ms. Murphy has custom-created simple, yet effective recipes that can help people achieve equilibrium. Her approach is based on the tenet that we are formed of this earth, which has 12 basic minerals that are supposed to be in balance. Due to our overuse of soil through farming, this delicate balance has become unhinged. Ms. Murphy offers a “delicious, progressive” alternative for her clients, which can reduce health expenditures (such as doctor visits) while achieving maximum results.

An interest in healthy habits and teaching others prompted Ms. Murphy to become involved in her profession. She is the author of “Preserved to Serve,” a book detailing the adversities she overcame before adopting a healthy, spiritual lifestyle. The story begins with her account of her first 25 years of life, which was plagued with illness. It continues with her encounters with a sickly husband and two sickly children. After losing custody of her daughter to the state, Ms. Murphy challenged the court system for four months before reuniting with her. She went on to help her daughter recover from the symptoms of cerebral palsy.

Through it all, Ms. Murphy forged a healthy lifestyle and became a shining beacon of hope for those in search of holistic healing. What sets Ms. Murphy apart from others is her ability to identify with people’s suffering and struggles because in most cases, she feels she has been there herself. “There’s a compassionate link,” she says, “so they receive the psychological support in addition to the physical.” Clients are also drawn by her resiliency, enthusiasm, strength and courage.

Ms. Murphy received a master’s degree in elementary education in 1966 and a bachelor’s degree in history with minors in elementary education and psychology in 1963. In 2004, she received certification in Hydrotherapy, Home Remedies and Grief Therapy from NAD Health Ministries and in 1974 she received Certification in Administration and Supervision from Richmond College. She is a member of the Gainesville Area Chamber of Commerce, a Chairman’s Circle Member of The Oxford Club, a Lifetime Member of The Sovereign Society, a Lifetime Member of the American Federation of Teachers, and a member of the United Federation of Teachers, AARP and Seed-Savers Exchange.

In five years, Ms. Murphy will be offering counseling services to health organizations and insurance companies, and will serve as a motivational speaker.

Brought to you by Nationwide Insurance®

These days, you can store practically all of your computer information on your cell phone – from your entire music collection to the latest dog-riding-a-skateboard video. But did you know you can also use your mobile device as a safety net in case of emergency? Take five minutes right now to tap these important numbers into your contact list so you’ll be prepared if assistance is needed.

I.C.E. This number, which stands for “in case of emergency,” should be your emergency contact – a parent, spouse, close friend or whomever you want notified if something happens to you. Many emergency responders and hospital personnel know to look for this number.

Home. Your home phone number. If someone finds your lost cell phone, he or she can call this number to let you know that the device is intact. Emergency personnel may also try it as an alternative if there is no answer at the I.C.E. number.

Police. Keeping this number stored in your phone will help you notify the local police station more rapidly in case you have an emergency or witness someone else who needs help.

State highway patrol. See a motorist stranded by the side of the road? Be a Good Samaritan and call the state highway patrol for assistance.

Insurance company. If you are in an accident, you should notify your insurance company right away and get roadside assistance or towing help if you need it. (Nationwide’s toll-free number for claims is 1-800-421-3535.)

Your motor club. Membership in an auto club can get you out of a jam. Store their 800 number in your cell phone in case you lock your keys inside the car or get a flat tire.

A word about 911 and cell phones. While GPS tracking technology continues to improve, many wireless phones still do not offer a way to determine a caller’s location. If you call 911 in an emergency, be sure to mention in detail your location, your phone number and what has happened.

    Etiquette Tips for Online Networkers

    March 31st, 2008

    By Cambridge Who’s Who Contributing Author Chi Chi Okezie

    Online networking is great tool for expanding your network and cultivating relationships with your existing contacts. For online networking to be beneficial for all parties involved, it is important to follow a few etiquette tips while establishing and maintaining business and personal relationships. People are most likely to do business with those whom they like, trust and respect. In order to create a good rapport with others, it is essential to conduct business in a professional manner. Business protocol is very easy and practical to achieve, and its rewards are powerful. This article is filled with helpful tips for establishing sound business relationships, treating your colleagues with respect and demonstrating professionalism while engaging in online networking.

    #1: Follow up
    An excellent way to build your credibility is to follow up in a timely manner and stay connected. Following up shows that you are focused and business minded in your endeavors. Failure to follow up can create gaps in communication that can hinder the progress on your online networking. It is also good to stay in contact with your business counterparts since you are communicating online and not seeing each other in person. You should not let an extensive amount of time lapse in your communication efforts. Even if you do not have any particular news to share, sending a quick message is always a good idea.

    #2: Be Patient
    When meeting people and conducting business over the internet, always exercise patience. Allow your business counterparts sufficient time to respond to your requests, comments, suggestions or questions. Being demanding or overbearing can appear aggressive or insensitive when conducting business or establishing relationships.

    #3: Get Permission
    No matter what you do or suggest, always ask for permission. It is a form of courtesy and consideration, which shows that you respect the other person’s privacy. Asking permission in advance improves your credibility and trust factor especially when conducting business over the internet. Ask for permission to include your counterparts on an email listing or advertisement. If you would like to introduce them to potential customers or clients also ask for their permission before making a formal online introduction of the two parties. Also, make sure that it is OK to refer them to others with their direct contact information.

    #4: Say Thank You
    Using the phrase “thank you” and showing an appreciation for others’ efforts is very important when conducting meaningful business. There are several creative ways of displaying a gracious attitude over the internet. You can close your message with a “thanks in advance” sentence or email a thank you e-card. Another great way of showing appreciation is by referring your business counterpart or creating awareness about their business to friends and colleagues. And follow up with them in regards to the progress of the professional or social endeavor in which they agreed to offer assistance. This is also a great way to stay connected with your business counterpart.

    The above tips and suggestions will increase your professionalism and help you to develop strong and meaningful business relations. Remember that the key to successful online networking is to respect and show appreciation for your business counterparts.
