The Alzheimer’s Tsunami: Waves Rushing to Shore

About Me View My Posts
Between 2000 and 2015 death from Alzheimer’s disease increased 123%. In the same period death from other major diseases in our country declined. This data point may surprise you as Alzheimer’s and related dementias today still share a common reality; they cannot be prevented, slowed or cured.After my mother’s death in 2015, I met with her geriatric psychiatrist. Our conversation transported me back... 4/17/2018 7:00:00 AM

The One Key to Attracting Your Ideal Partner

About Me View My Posts
After being married 25 years, I’m suffering a bit from PTSD. Not necessarily from the divorce but rather from being thrown back into the dating pool! Maybe you are like me too, where finding that ideal partner has seemed like a bad joke on most days. For many, dating is a game. A competitive activity involving skill, chance, or endurance on the part of two or more persons who play according to a set... 4/17/2018 7:00:00 AM

I’m That Person Meditating at the Office, and Here’s Why I’ll Never Stop
by Robert Parmer
About Me View My Posts
The workplace hippie. The "overly" health conscious individual. The granola. The mediation junkie. These are all phrases I’ve heard being thrown around at work to describe those free-thinkers who aren’t quite content enough with typical rhythm of an office workplace.I am that person, and I am not ashamed! I’ve decided to take the road to long term wellness, and I’ve found my route through mindful meditation... 4/14/2018 9:00:00 PM

Thank a nurse between May 6 and May 12, it's National Nurse's Week. Actually, thank a nurse any day you get the chance! In preparation for last year’s National Nurses Week, my sister was part of a 3-person planning committee at the hospital she works for that brought in over 200 donated gifts, $25 gift certificates from a local grocery store, an improv comedy show, a Chinese lunch and a breakfast burrito... 4/13/2018 7:00:00 AM

Love Is An Inside Job First

About Me View My Posts
When one of my friends turned 50 and was still single (after a few bad relationships and divorce) she said "That’s it. I am destined to be single for the rest of my life, so I better start loving myself. I’m all I got."Getting close to that age, and single myself, was I destined to be single for the rest of my life? I reacted very intensely to her, in saying “No, don’t you dare give up, there is someone... 4/13/2018 7:00:00 AM

Parenting a Successful Child
by James Gray Robinson
About Me View My Posts
There are as many theories about raising children as there are children. Most parents will admit that they had no idea of what raising a child would be like and that someone should write a manual to explain how to do it. Many have. The problem is that there is no one formula for raising children and the “experts” that claim their one size fits all theories cause more problems than they solve. Parenting... 4/10/2018 7:00:00 AM

Why is it that we moms spend hours, weeks, months researching the best schools and summer camps, finding the best Christmas presents and birthday gifts, scoping out the best flat screen TVs, but we want to cook dinner in a quick 20 minutes. Think about it: we sign our children up for multiple activities when they are small so they can get into college, but we don’t teach them two simple skills they... 4/5/2018 7:00:00 AM

by Dr. Laura Markham
About Me View My Posts
Most parents think of Tylenol as a wonder drug -- harmless, readily available, and a miraculous cure for teething fussiness, ear infection pain, fevers and other childhood maladies. But when an old friend's son died recently from tylenol poisoning, I did some research. Call me naive, but I was shocked by what I learned.Apparently, Tylenol/Acetaminophen is toxic to the human body. It causes liver poisoning.... 3/29/2018 7:00:00 AM

Making a Point Versus Having a Conversation
by Dr. Janet Sasson Edgette
About Me View My Posts
Olivia calls her dad a s**t-head every chance she gets, but what she really wants to say to him is this: “Every time you talk to me you’re trying to make some point and it gets old. Plus, you think you’re being funny but it hurts my feelings and that’s why I don’t talk to you, not because I’m a “mopey teenager.” Let’s unpack this conflict, and see how a father and daughter who are genuinely trying... 3/28/2018 7:00:00 AM
