Yoga and The coronavirus

I first noticed unusual symptoms when I awakened in the middle of the night unable to breathe. Even though I was breathing, there was little oxygen exchange. This symptom felt similar to the symptoms of the SARS virus I suffered through in 2002 after returning from India. Now, in East Texas,...

Neuroscience shows that 50-year-olds can have the brains of 25-year-olds if they sit quietly and do nothing for 15 minut

Neuroscientist Sara Lazar found that people who practiced meditation had more gray matter in the part of the brain linked to decision-making and working memory: the frontal cortex. * While most people see their cortexes shrink as they age, 50-year-old meditators in the study had the same amount of gray matter as those half their age. * Participants in the study averaged about 27 minutes of the habit a day, but other studies suggest that you can see significant positive changes in just 15 minutes a day.

Reversing Early Onset Dementia

I'm an 81-year-old woman, former nurse, who has recently been diagnosed with early onset dementia. I still drive, cook, socialize and dress well. My concern is my diminishing short-term memory. I fail to recall friend’s names and I forget some appointments. My G.P. prescribed Aricept but the side effects (vomiting and diarrhea) were terrible. He then put me on the Exelon Patch but the results were similar....

A Response to the New York Times article

The NYT article on how yoga can hurt you has brought about quite a bit of healthy conversation regarding this subject. My own opinion is that nothing...that is, no sport, no activity...can hurt you. Example: I played NCAA Division I college football and got hurt pretty badly. I have competed in martial arts for over 30 years and sustained injuries. I have practiced yoga and have sustained injuries. But, I cannot blame football, karate, or yoga for my injuries. 'They' did not hurt me. I am the one responsible. In essence, I am the one who made the choice that resulted in injury. I cannot blame anyone or anything outside of me. For that matter, I do not even blame me. I only take responsibility for my decisions. ~Michael Sutton Read the article.

Cleansing & Building Methods

In my health consultations, I often talk about detoxing and cleansing. Some people immediately know what I am talking about while others get a perplexed look on their face. I think this is because we have grown up with such a 'take a pill (drug) for this problem' mentality that when it is suggested you do something for your self and by your self, or do something that seems so simple, it somehow seems backwards and unsophisticated, even third-worldish. So, here are some of my personal remedies.
