Emotional pain from the past can lodge in the body and become physical pain in the present.

Who can you believe these days? Some medical authorities claim there is no such thing as a cold sore cure. Other, just as credible experts, claim cold sore cures are very real today. Who is telling the truth? Believe it or not, THEY ARE BOTH CORRECT. The confusion lies in the fact they are talking about two different things. When my friends at Mayo state there is no cure for cold sores, they are talking about the root cause of cold sores - the herpes simplex type 1 virus th

It always surprises me when people question whether or not dreams have meaning. I want to respond, Does your life have meaning? Are the thoughts that pass through your consciousness during your waking hours just random firings of neurons, or do they mean something about who you are and what you want?

Every day at my medical practice, I see several people for different aches and pains due to arthritis, stiffness of joints, tight muscles, and combinations of these.

Joe’s Top 10 “New” Years Parenting Thoughts by Joe Gandolfo, M.A., LPC Another New Year. A time for personal renewal and making a change. Most people make a sincere effort to alter a behavior, which when changed, will improve one’s life. Sadly for many, the behavior change lasts only a few weeks at best. Why is this so? It is very difficult to maintain a behavioral change if underlying thoughts and beliefs are not changed as well. Beliefs lead to thoughts, and thoughts lead to behavior.
On Friday my son's playschool director shared an article with me. I found it very interesting especially since I have the same quote from Albert Einstein on my website "Imagination is more important than knowledge. For while knowledge defines all we currently know and understand, imagination points to all we might yet discover and create." So many parents ask me or others "can your child read yet", "how far can your child count", "does your child know all their letters, numbers, colors, and so on and so on and so on". I am a Mommy to four children ages 4-15.

Recently I had one of those experiences that we probably all have from time to time, but wish we had skipped it. I pulled a muscle, and anyone who has done that knows how painful it can be. I’ve done it before, so I knew immediately what was wrong, but the thought of dealing with a lot of pain for days didn’t appeal much to me. The last time I pulled a muscle, it was in my chest, and every breath that I took hurt. The pain was so bad that it scared me, and I saw my doctor.
Many people, especially in the academic world, look at the world in a very rational way. They view everything related to energies and spirituality with skepticism, a rational skepticism. People involved in groups often seek approval and recognition. For example, Wikipedia wants to be recognized as a legit encyclopedia. The Zeitgeist Movement wants to be taken seriously by the medias and mainstream population.
Because our nervous system is wired to need others, rejection is painful. Romantic rejection especially hurts. Feeling lonely and missing connection share the evolutionary purpose of survival and reproduction. Ideally, loneliness should encourage you reach out to others and maintain your relationships.
Substance Abuse has a Profound Impact on Sex Sex and drugs always seems like a hot topic in the media and in nearly all social circles, but the reality of the situation is that sex and drugs can pose serious, lifelong consequences to those who engage in such behaviors simultaneously. There are always inherent risks associated with drug abuse, and unfortunately there are also serious risks involved with sex. This is true of each behavior independently, and it is a significantly exacerbated truth when the two are combined.
STEP ONE: List the costs and benefits of doing the task you are putting off. Examine each list and weigh each side by dividing 100 points (for example, you find that the advantages of doing the behavior you have been putting off outweigh the disadvantages by 60 to 40). If the result of ...
Uh-oh…Valentine’s Day is here and those cute little cherubs will be wreaking havoc flinging arrows all over the place. Do Cupid’s arrows have any impact on ones feng shui? Being classified as ancient WMD’s, arrows do not have a positive feng shui connotation. Since Cupid’s a mythical figure, his arrows aren’t real, but the pictures of them do symbolically equate love with a painful experience, don’t they? A pierced heart does not exactly give off a warm fuzzy vibe. Stupid Cupid!

Some time ago I posted an article on Water/ Hydration on a site called Qondio, and this is an updated version of that article. How often are we told how important water is to us, and how often do we tell ourselves that we really should drink more water!! And yet in most instances we simply do not do so. Why, our busy lifestyles, the Western habit of eating and drinking on the run rather than the more social 'sitting and sharing of a meal' and the accompanying fluids that many cultures follow, and often simply because other 'things' taste better than water.!

Many of us have forgotten how important it is to be still, to spend a few moments daily to quiet the thoughts and relax our minds. Taking the time to be quiet,to silence our minds and activities,helps us to renew our energy and creativity.It also increases our level of gratitude. But we have been led to believe that we must be busy,doing something every moment. If we are idle for any amount of time, we think we are not being productive; this is especially true for those of us who are 'high achievers.' Many times,however, being idle or quiet, is exactly what is needed. Let me ask you:Ha
A hundred years ago, Renoir painted “La Toilette” (The Bather), a portrait of a young woman in the nude. She has long, aubu hair, full breasts and hips, a rounded belly, and, if the truth be told, thighs that look like mine. She’s voluptuous and she’s beautiful! One hundred years ago she was the ideal of feminine beauty. Today, she’d be one of my clients, struggling to accept herself in the face of an unattainable beauty ideal. When I show her to my clients, some of them are heartened by the resemblance they see to themselves. Some think, she has such a pretty face, but boy is she fat.

Last year about this time, I compiled a list of gift-giving suggestions for other people. This year, I say to heck with that. This is what I want in 2012. * A Stanford quarterback almost as good as Andrew Luck (asking for one that’s better tha Luck is just insanity) * A Goldilocks winter, with not too much rain, and not too little * Equity (both kinds: social and real estate) * The highest-scoring Super Bowl ever with Aaron Rodgers or Drew Brees and Tom Brady firing rockets back and forth (I love the 49ers, but not defensive games)r
Some actors are enormously evolved spiritually. We watch them and enjoy their auric modeling. (That means the way people receive a contact high from another person's aura.) Heath Ledger, found dead yesterday, at 28, was such an actor. He was also one of the very gifted ones who would take a ...
There is only one problem with being soft-spoken. It is that you are constantly being asked to repeat yourself. And, if it happens often enough, your listeners will stop listening or interrupt you and take over the conversation. Yes, your partner may not seem to be listening but have you ever considered that he or she cannot hear you? Or perhaps you never have a chance at work to finish your sentence because someone else takes over the conversation?

1. Begin by becoming aware of your boundaries. Take notice of your feelings. They are your inner messengers, your inner guidance system. When a boundary is crossed, there is a definite physiological response. If someone’s comments or actions make you uncomfortable, notice how you react physically. Do you take a sharp breath in? Does your face redden? Does your throat tighten? Do you begin to feel cold and tremble? Note what the person is doing or saying that is giving you this reaction.

“Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheelr Never ending or beginning on an ever-spinning reelr As the images unwindr Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind” In the last few months, I’ve counseled more than the usual number of you who’ve been going through a “Dark Night of the Soul,” a few even contemplating suicide. This has moved me to share some of my views on this completely organic and essential part of our Soul’s journey of awakening, especially since I’m in such a challenging period myself and know just how yucky it can be.
Over the last year or so, I have spoken to a number of people who have found themselves at a crossroads in their careers through no fault of their own. Economic circumstances, being in the work place at the wrong time, employers using the excuse of the economic downtu to re-structure – have led to many people finding themselves out of work at a time in their lives when they could, quite reasonably, have expected to be taking their foot off the peddle and relaxing.
