A friend posted on social media this week that she had been traveling and was feeling bloated … even “puffy.” 🫃 She had observed that her weight hadn’t changed but she had a distinct bulge around the middle. Belly fat! YUK! 🤢 It reminded me about a research article I saw a couple of weeks ago about the effects of bingeing on…

Last weekend, I was at a conference for practitioners who use microcurrent medicine. Every other year, there is a symposium where case studies are presented from experiences “in the trenches.” The cases this year covered a wide variety of common health issues. Here’s a partial list: 🤕 Myofascial pain🦠 Liver disease🤒 PTSD🏋 Weight management The common thread … or root cause…

Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day. It’s been at least 4 decades since I celebrated with a green beer. 🍻 Apparently, I’m an anomaly. (Actually, not a surprise!) I do drink plenty of green tea. Hopefully, that counts! ✔ Living near Savannah, GA for a decade hasn’t ignited my Irish spirit … even though I do have some…

It’s been frustrating lately. 😩 As someone committed to changing the way we approach health and wellness, it’s surprising that there are STILL so many obstacles for those of us offering a fresh perspective. My perspective … and approach … wasn’t developed from random sources. It’s been curated from many global leaders that are equally committed…

Travel is life-enhancing. It’s good for us to be forced out of our comfort zone regularly.  It improves our health in many ways … unless the choices for nutrition are limited.  Options may not be limited for the natives, but for those of us non-natives finding a nutrient-dense satisfying meal can be a problem. This…

You may recall that I compare the human body to a rechargeable battery.🔋 While there are some differences, there are similarities that can help us understand how the body makes and stores energy. To start with, the human body creates electrical potential through ion movement, particularly exploiting the sodium and potassium pumps in cells. This biological system is…

Tomorrow is a holiday in the USA. President’s Day. I thought that we would be celebrating a milestone this year. The first Madame President. The reality is not what I had hoped. But I still have control over my thoughts … and the resulting feelings. 💭 Sure. It’s more challenging when we aren’t happy with what we see….

Developing awareness … especially self-awareness … is one of the best uses of your time. It was essentially the focus of my first book, “Sage Advice™.” 📚 You ARE the Sage! So, over the past 40 years, I’ve studied more systems for exploring self than I could list here … without boring you to pieces. When I heard about a…

In my book, “What’s Your Kryptonite™?”, I encourage readers to avoid “That Chair.”  This week I had a conversation with a colleague who had unfortunately been a witness to what I warned would happen if symptoms were suppressed and the root cause of health issues allowed to escalate. Her mom ended up there … … in THAT CHAIR!  It’s…

I walked in the snow ☃️ this week … in Hilton Head. Cold weather isn’t my jam but there’s something refreshing about snow.  Clean. White. Sparkly! It brings back fond memories with my beloved Westie, Duncan. We lived in Colorado for a couple of years and he LOVED the snow. I put his fur lined…
