I had an unusual conversation yesterday that I feel is worthy of further consideration. A new acquaintance, whom I have not met in person, asked me where I thought the world was headed. What a whopper of a question! She qualified her question with a mention of the Mayan Calendar, which as I understand it …

Healthy Parts, Healthy Whole
Economic depression cannot be cured by legislative action or executive pronouncement. Economic wounds must be healed by the action of the cells of the economic body - the producers and consumers themselves. ~ Herbert Hoover Herbert Hoover's response to the Great Depression- a fiscally conservative approach that relied more on a call to confidence and …
The Antidote to Premature Aging
A friend of mine told me that she was inspired by the example of others recently to start a new hobby. The hobby she chose, rowing, met several criteria for her as it was outdoors, involved opportunities for solitude as well as social time and provided exercise without physical exertion being the central focus. …
No when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em
I read an article yesterday morning that stood out to me as being a particularly clear example of how we as a society can end up pouring good money after bad, for an apparently good reason. We are on the verge of a health crisis. I'm not speaking of health care reform, but instead of …

The world is full of dubious and nefarious agents. Anyone who interfaces with …

Strong men believe in cause and effect. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson One of the presenters I was privileged to watch this weekend at our annual Energetix Lyceum described the methylation pathways of our body.

Health Care for the New Century
One sees what one looks for. One looks for what one knows. ~ Goethe I'm in Chicago at the moment as my company just finished hosting its 13th annual Bioenergetic Lyceum. The Lyceum, a two day training that serves as a culmination of our four part Bioenergetic College series and as a general educational event …
Change, Vulnerability and Self-Respect
"He that respects himself is safe from others; he wears a coat of mail that none can pierce." ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow I am surrounded by people who aspire to excellence. They push themselves, dream big and take risks. They questions assumptions, test their limitations and welcome correction. They learn to use pressure to …
