Why You Think More Clearly When You Spend Time Outside

Grounding, Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine / By Laura Koniver, MD

We already know that grounding (touching) the earth outside immediately impacts our brains. This fantastic medical study, published in 2018, documents the brain wave shifts that happen near instantaneously, within milliseconds, recorded via an EEG (electroencephalogram) when the human body is grounded. Today I want to share with you a sneak peek of my next medical journal publication (submitted for review and accepted for publication in Open Journal Of Neurology & Neuroscience) where I suggest why it’s easier to think, and even get clarity and flashes of insight/intuition, when we are outside in nature. While grounding …

Can Cutting Out Bread Actually Improve Your Mental Health?

Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

Long time readers of my blog already know, since I blogged about this almost a decade ago, that gluten is a neuro-irritant — meaning it causes inflammation in the brain and has been linked to cognitive decline, even dementia. I wrote this article for you back in 2014 to help explain how dementia could be considered a gluten-induced condition. More recent evidence suggests that not only does the brain inflammation that gluten causes affect your brain, it might also be affecting your mental health, including causing or worsening mood disorders like depression and anxiety. As someone who has …

Movement Immediately Helps Your Memory Improve, Right Then And There

Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

A recent medical study caught my eye, so today I am excited to share it with you here. Researchers looked at how exercise helps to boost memory, and found that there are literally immediate benefits to your memory function after literally just one bout of exercising. Published September 2020 in Scientific Reports, this study finds that one session of exercising (cycling on a stationary bike was the exercise used in this study) significantly improved motor sequence memory — immediately! This is super encouraging, because it was not looking at just the long term benefits from exercise (which …

Your Brain On Mother Earth

Grounding, Healthy Weight, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

There is a beautiful relationship that our brain has with the energy of mother earth. This helps support everything our brain helps us to do â€” from enhancing our mood to maintaining a healthy weight to deepening our restorative sleep. Most people believe that our circadian (day/night) rhythm is dependant on sunlight to set that pattern for us, but scientists have actually known since 1970 that the earth’s energy field has as much, if not more, to do with our sleep/wake pattern than even the sun. Here’s how: Researchers built two underground isolation chambers that completely cut …

Recovering Memory In Dementia — One Simple Trick

Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle, Soul Healing / By Laura Koniver, MD

New research shows that in Alzheimer’s patients, long term memory can be regained through listening to music! Listening to music that is familiar to the dementia patient from their past reawakens long term memories about who the person is, who their family is, and the context of their life. This has huge implications in quality of living, in social interactions and even in activity levels. If you play music that holds special meaning to a patient experiencing memory loss, you are very likely to help them recover context and depth and recognition in the form of long term memory …

New Study Proves Dementia Is Preventable (Here’s How…)

Grounding, Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Here is some good news you don’t hear very often… …directly from the medical literature: Dementia is on the decline. Even with obesity and diabetes rates steadily increasing in a population that is aging, the rate of dementia is actually significantly decreasing, and has been for the past 30 years! Although our population is aging, the incidence of dementia has dropped by 20% every decade over the three decades. These results, recently published on Feb 10, 2016 in the New England Journal of Medicine, give more than hope… they give definitive proof that dementia is a preventable …
