The Saturation Point

I want to bring up the saturation point, a place that we never seem to reach when we are young, but somehow as the years go on, we wake up one day and find ourselves dreading watering the plants because it's just one thing too many to think about.

Our organs, glands, tissues and fluids have a limit in how much they can manage, how many of their functions they can accomplish and how much they can tolerate.

The Community at Large

Now more and more it seems that both physical and mental illness reflect our lack of community, our search to replace that sense of belonging.

When Do You Stop Controlling Yourself?

Closed Head Injuries: A Lifetime of Symptoms

There are many times when I am muscle testing patients and the issues and symptoms they are experiencing trace back to a closed head injury earlier in their life. The truth is that this type of injury, whether diagnosed as a concussion or not, can happen from sports, from a fall, from a blow to the head or from any injury such as in a car accident.

Respecting Your Body Picture

Each of us are given a life picture when we are born. We then spend our lives filling it in, creating color and both respecting some lines while blurring or coloring over others. We do this with our choices, our lifestyles, our habits and our experiences. The more we blur the lines of our picture, the less we can see what the picture actually is.
