It is very common for a new patient to be sitting in my office, hunched over, wincing in pain, explaining to me in disbelief what happened, and using the words “all I did was…” And what follows could be bending down to pick up a coin, leaning over to put on their socks, reaching out…
1. Funny post I saw this week… Saw this post this week, and it made me laugh… 2. Product I recommend… Infrared saunas have been in use for a long time, and the data keeps getting better and better on how helpful they can be. I’ve had one for decades. We have one at the…
1. Great advice I heard this week… I’ve been watching video clips of the great Jim Rohn. He was talking about goal setting and said something that I absolutely love… “Make plans like an adult… and believe like a child.” I LOVE that!!! Meaning lay out your goals with specificity, intensity, focus, and details, then……
The opioid crisis wreaked havoc on America. The crazy thing is that it wasn’t fueled by a drug cartel out of Mexico, street gangs in America, or the Mob in big cities. It was created by and fueled by drug companies, medical doctors, and our health care system. This certainly isn’t the first time our…
1. Something I am NOT worried about… By now, you’ve heard the hype around the new Hantavirus. Two problems… it’s not new… and… the fear the media is pushing is WAY overblown. The media loves fear, so you’ll hear words like “deadly virus,” “mysterious outbreak,” and “experts are warning.” Can it be serious if you…
If you were around in the 80s and 90s, then you surely remember the Just Say No campaign aimed to help young people avoid illicit drug use. Why? Obviously, because drugs can be very dangerous, even deadly. The ironic thing is that while the government, the media, and parents were telling youth to say no…
1. Three words I love… I heard a podcast this week where the guest was asked to sum up their life goals. They simply uttered these three words… Fun, Freedom, and Fulfillment. I love it! It reminded me that life is short, it’s easy to get bogged down in the busyness of life, and we…
We are living in very strange times. Depression and loneliness are at an all time high. People are frustrated, angry, and concerned about the future. I’d like to say that things are about to turn around, but I don’t believe they are. So, what should we do? Give up? Throw in the towel? Crawl in…
1. Great video clip I’m re-posting… The body is a self-healing, self-regulating, miraculous creation. We forget that it will work better, if only we give it what it wants and get rid of what’s bad for it. I’m reposting this video of a celery plant that we had that was wilting. Some would see this…
I have a long-time patient who has lost 38 pounds. She looks amazing, her bloodwork and biomarkers are all remarkably better, and she is thrilled. But what caught my attention most was what she said… “I didn’t realize how bad I felt before losing the weight. I can’t believe I let myself feel that way.…
