Why a woman's body is not considered her own property.
Women that struggle with fertility often feel they don’t have ownership of their body. A holistic approach cultivates overall wellness and empowerment to make informed decisions about their health.
Tis the Season for Holiday Madness!
Celebrate with friends and start a new tradition of gratitude and giving.
Dear Santa, Is There Any Good Left In The World?
As we head to the close of yet another year, we celebrate our accomplishments and plan for future successes with the hope that a new year brings. The truth is that we might have been on the brink of nuclear destruction several times this year.
Global warming and the world political scene is in crisis mode. Basically every movie with an “end of the world scenario” is playing out in real time before our eyes.
Are You Living Your Full Human Potential?
I recently participated in a residential program at the Monroe Institute in Charlottesville, Va. The program is called MC₂ Manifestation and Creation*, and explores our ability to powerfully focus our mind and energy to influence physical matter.
Using consciousness to influence/affect and effect objects, also known as Psychokinesis.
Does this sound like magic? Science fiction?
Will Chinese Medicine Bring You Closer to God?
If removing pain helps you to connect with your higher self, spirituality and your purpose, then perhaps the answer is YES. Medicine and spirituality are rarely thought of as synonymous.
Chinese medicine is based on spiritual principles of living a healthy and fulfilling life. This is our life’s purpose.
Is Health In Your Future?
Our most precious gifts are life and health, everything after that is extra.
You may have already started to think about what you can do now to improve your health and insure you are healthy in your senior years. It is never too late to start and the sooner the better!
The best defense against super viruses and infections is developing a strong immune system.
The Way
I believe that we are here, on this planet, at this moment, for a purpose. This may be uncomfortable for some of you, and challenge your beliefs about health, healing and spirituality. Just notice what shows up for you. For me, I have to ask myself if what I was doing was fulfilling my purpose. So ask yourself, is your purpose to be sitting in an office, toiling, and waiting for 5 o’clock. For me the answer was no
Stress Addiction - The Silent Killer
Identifying stress as a big issue seems lame, right? You can continue to deny that you don't feel stress or that it doesn't play a factor in your life. I get it, it's not glamour, but that is how it stays hidden in plain sight.
If this topic irritates you there is a very good chance that it is rubbing up against a truth, that perhaps you are addicted to your stress.
How can I live long and PROSPER like the Vulcans?
Medical advances can make sure we live longer, but that doesn’t translate into health or prospering. The keyword here is prosper and prospering by definition is about going beyond just getting by. To prosper is to thrive and flourish.
It all depends on your mindfulness surrounding health and healing. What are your expectations and what do you want to achieve?
Whole Health Consciouness
Here is a video of a talk I gave a while back about holistic healing, Eastern philosophies and optimal health.
I'm doing an event in New Zealand in May that will go deeper, but this is the gist of my principles and practices, where I find inspiration and how I view health and self-care.
I am aiming for a whole-health consciousness REVOLUTION! Will you join me?
Eat to Live 21 Day Challenge
I hope that you have started reading the book Eat to Live and have joined the Facebook group.
The basic premise of Eat to Live is:

Is New Years Another Groundhog Day?
It’s that time of year again!

Where did the time go?
The holiday season is one of the most stressful times of the year. The expectations of family members and the formalities of celebration are hardwired into our nervous system.
