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

Just in time for the back-to-school season, I have pulled together a list of 12 things you can do throughout your day to improve the quality of your sleep tonight. All based on the most current medical literature on sleep quality. In fact, I recently returned from a medical conference where one of the lectures was on repairing sleep deficits. Something I was very interested in because I’ve always been a poor sleeper all of my life. The take home point that really stuck in my mind, and now when I have a sleepless night I remind myself …

Sleep is so important to your long term well being that you literally can’t live without it… sleep is non-negotiable and absolutely essential for longevity.

Two Years Ago Today I Was Headed Into An Operating Room

Healthy Mindframe, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Exactly two years ago, I ignored a growing, intense pain in my abdomen for about 24 hours, because I felt that I could not afford to take a break from all the work I had to do.

Your Brain On Mother Earth

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