Breathe Deeply

Breathe Deeply… healing artwork     Is your doctor thinking outside the box? This is what I’d love them to know… that what we were taught in med school only scratches the surface of the magic and potential that we hold in our bodies.   Here is the perfect example… your lungs. Yes, they take in air, provide the surface area for oxygen to reach our bloodstream, and exhale out the by-products of this exchange.   But is that all that goes on when you take a deep breath? Does anything change for you when you stop and take a …

Looking Deeply…

  See Beyond The Surface… healing artwork   There really are two ways to look at everything, and the more I remember that the more flexible and kind and patient and loving I am able to be. So I created this artwork as a physical reminder. Literally ripping an old anatomy diagram of the eyeball out from my med school textbook, I left half the way they taught it. Cold and clinical. Can’t tell if the eyeball is a dead or living representation… just the mere facts. But then I added the energy, the life force to the second half… …

Everything Is Possible… an exercise in cultivating wonder

  When nothing is sure, Everything is possible. – Margaret Drabble   “Live In Possibility” On Wednesday we talked about how the brain ages… how it’s natural tendency is to get stuck in routine, limited by the confines of the skull, limited by concrete thinking. As we age, our brain goes literally from being malleable, flexible, growing, open fontanels and unfused skull plates to: encasement in bone linear thinking a huge storage place for labels and facts repetitive neuronal pathways. If you can find a way to keep your neuronal interconnections growing, you literally keep your brain younger. Adaptable. Warding …

Tylenol Found to Worsen Asthma

Here is one of my newer works of art… a mixed media collage I created out of my old medical school anatomy book. I call it A New Rx and after you read this post today, I think you’ll be agreeing it’s time for a change in plans. Man. I do greatly prefer revealing the positive side of holistic and natural healthcare and focusing on the good news to be found among the medical literature. But occasionally I come across something that I really want my peeps to KNOW and I want to be sure the this information gets out …

Empowered Birth Awareness, save the date!

I was watching Good Luck Charlie the other evening with my daughter on The Disney Channel, and the mother of the sitcom went into labor as part of the plot line. As predicted, the following scenes were full of screaming and panic. I leaned over to my daughter and told her, like I have many many times before, that real birth is not like this. That giving birth to a baby is one of the most natural things we do as women, in fact, it is the reason that human being have survived on this planet in the first place! …
