Change has been my way of life for a very long time. Experience has taught me that it’s important that we all learn to ride the wave of change from a place of allowance instead of resistance. While it’s not always easy, it’s very important. I have much more to say about change.   

I found myself at the beginning of 2016 deep in the thick of a complete re-branding of my website!  It has been a completely transformative process for me and right from the start, the word REVOLUTION started to appear consistently and often. And of course, when something continues to appear, there’s a message lurking and we need to pause and look at it.  And if I need to look at it, I figure others need to look at it too! 

What does this mean?  Before we get to that, I just want to say that the fairly recent incident regarding Brian Williams losing the nightly news anchor position he had for several years is the inspiration for this newsletter.  As many of you probably know, back in 2015, Brian Williams was suspended from anchoring the nightly news for six months due to misrepresenting his experiences when covering the Iraq war.  

Holistic Medicine is a totally different ballgame than Allopathic Medicine.  When you make the conscious choice to embark on the journey of holistic medicine you have to give up the idea of instant gratification.  It’s hard to make the switch, but when you do the end results are much more gratifying than you could have ever hoped for!

The heat and humidity of the summer will soon be in full swing. Although I love this beautiful time of the year, it can be a very stressful time for many people. From the Ayurvedic perspective, summer is the Pitta season. This means that the prevailing element is fire or heat. Especially for those who have a Pitta mind/body constitution, this season can bring up several concerns or symptoms of distress in the mind and body.
