Inspire

In trying to share with the world my vision and passion for health and healing, I am working hard to understand how to communicate what I so clearly see. This YouTube video Starting With the Why is a beautifully articulated example of the critical importance of communicating from emotion and feeling as opposed to "heady" thinking("I have  a dream" not "I have an idea"). It applies to marketing as well as to getting healthy. People get us when we reveal ourselves and the "why" we do what we do and say what we say. People are lost and unclear when we communicate only thoughts without the feeling. However, they are inspired and feel connected and motivated when we reveal who we are and why we do what we do.

Why do I do what I do? Why am I trying to create something new in medicine? Why can I not rest until  there is a new paradigm in medicine and people are empowered and connected rather than disenfranchised and lost? I know the consequences of being unable (afraid) to speak my true thoughts and feelings. It is painful, lonely and physically draining. It causes physical and emotional suffering and even illness.I believe it caused my health to suffer and my life to suffer. I feel alive again knowing my "why". I have a purpose now that I can feel and verbalize my "why". I get it.

What is your "why"? How can I help you get to your "why"?

I liked the idea behind the video.

I did too. You have been trying to tell me that all along. I think I finally get it.

IT'S HAPPENING

Wow, the information available on CCSVI on the internet is truly amazing! I have to admit: I did not research this topic as well as I could have. I did not read the study from Poland before my procedure. I did not realize all the excitement combined with incredible knowledge that is coming out of Georgetown. I am just reading them now and I can hardly contain myself. There is so much data available on CCSVI from around the world. I acted more on a deep gut feeling that CCSVI was real and was my path to healing. I was a little desperate as I felt myself sliding over the last year and didn't feel right with the auto-immune drugs. CCSVI just made sense to me; really good sense. Now reading the data, I am so excited for huge numbers of people to get healed/opened/freed! After doing a little research, it seems that nearly all people with definite MS have CCSVI. It also seems that people with MS who have the procedure have less flairs over time and a better quality of life. Some get a lo...

6 month update and announcement

By
Wow, it is has been 6 weeks since my last writing. I am currently in Lake Tahoe on holiday with Grace and our puppies. It is amazingly beautiful here. We have come here in the summers intermittently over the past 20 years. Last summer was very difficult for me as I could not sleep and was extremely limited in my activities. It was the lowest I have ever been in my memory. Hiking amidst the beauty is what we love and not being physically able was very hard on me mentally. Thanks to the Liberation Procedure and lots of rehab/re-training, I am very happy to say that I am back on the trails and able to see, feel and experience the beauty again. I am deeply grateful to once again be a participator in this magical life. Nature has always been my temple/church and movement in nature truly lights my fire. Swimming in Lake Tahoe and the surrounding mountain lakes rejuvenates me in ways that nothing I have ever experienced can or does. My favorite hike here -- Five Lakes -- is a rigorous hike u...

The Wind

By
Tonight after work, I went for a walk with my dogs. The weather had changed and it was blustery. The first half of the walk was against the wind. It felt good. The way back was with a strong wind. It felt incredible! I have not moved that fast in years. I wasn't running but I was striding like I haven't in what feels like a decade. It was nearly effortless. I wasn't out of breath; it was easy. I haven't felt ease in a VERY LONG time but I did tonight. I have been walking once or often twice a day with my dogs. My energy is really good. I only drink 1 cup of coffee a day(used to need 2-3 with a diet coke at lunch). I am working more without any of the exhaustion. Today is my 3 week anniversary since the Liberation Procedure. I do feel like I have been liberated. I have a different body. I have energy -- that is the biggest change. It really feels good to be able to walk without intense focus. I can relax. I can let the wind push me and feel light. That is what I have n...
