Just 15 minutes can change your life. Just fifteen minutes a day. That’s one quarter of one hour of your daily 24 hours. Fifteen minutes of your daily 1,440 minutes. A smidgeon over 1% of your day.
Would that be too much to ask for to potentially transform your health? To reduce your blood pressure, stress, sense of anxiety and depression, risk of viral infection and even prevent diabetes?

The truth is most of us are. Whether it’s big things, like protecting us from COVID-19, or smaller things, like making the changes to our habits and routines we know will improve our health, too many people are waiting.
And what would that be? Who or what are people waiting for?
A messiah.
[Read more…] about The Messianic CrutchSupplements occupy an interesting as well as controversial space in the health and wellness world. Many tout (and sling) them to the high heavens, others warn of both efficacy and safety. Either way, they’re here in a big way and they ain’t going anywhere. Right now the supplement market is around 123 billion dollars. In the next six to seven years estimates have it exploding to between 230 and 349 billion. Clearly, supplements sell, making it unsurprising that it’s rare nowadays to find a big time personalities in health and wellness not selling their own supplement brand.
Supplements are also near and dear to my heart ❤️️. I’ve just always had an affinity for them. Like some of you, I have (more had) cupboards and boxes of barely used, half used, sometimes unopened bottles in my efforts to find the next best thing to feel better and perform stronger. Now, I’ve certainly curbed my enthusiasm with time and more knowledge, but I don’t think my curiosity for them will ever end. We’ve just got chemistry 🧪😎. But, when it comes to supplements this is my golden rule –
Not all supplements are created equal.
[Read more…] about A Supplement Ain’t A Supplement Isn’t A SupplementNo matter who you are, where you are or what you do the last couple of months have been nothing but corona virus all day, every day. And as much as this submicroscopic agent has biologically infected scores of humans around the world, it has infected oh so much more than that. It has infected and affected liberty and freedom, it has infected the media and it has infected umpteen minds, innumerable hearts and incalculable spirits. The corona virus has infected our lives. Whether you had it or not. Whether you are afraid of it or not. Whether you believe all of it or not. Frankly, whether you wanted it to affect you or not.
But how it affects you and to what ends is one of the only freedoms you have left. That is the supreme liberty, and nobody can take it away. It is during such times of anxiety and despair when the wisdom of Frankl must be listened to.
“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing:
the last of the human freedoms –
to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances.”
“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.”
There’s a fundamental importance to knowing your “why”. How’s move us from a to b but the why gets you there. Like a car. The how’s are the wheels and the steering wheel and the axels and the rest of the structure. But the why is the motor. The most pristine, souped-up car goes nowhere without a motor. Just like you.
Our bodies and mind move us around the world
but without the heart and the why’s we keep inside of it
we don’t get anywhere.

Scratch that….
Setbacks are very difficult.
You’re ticking along nicely. The past is the past. Over. You’re winning, making progress, moving forward. Then, suddenly, from one day to the next you’re not. You’re back to feeling like you used to, which is not how you want to be feeling. And it hurts – it hurts emotionally, psychologically, spiritually. In a moment of real darkness things can feel pointless again, and really unfair and undeserved, especially if you’ve been doing everything right. It feels like you’re at square one – again – as if somehow you looped back to the same mountains of challenge and pain you once put everything you had to overcome… and now you have to climb them again. Again.
Am I right back where I started?
No. No, you are not.
