A Simple Grounding Fall Meditation You Can Do Right Now To Release Pain & Stress

    I’ve long been a fan of the health benefits of meditation, so I was really excited when a new medical study confirmed that mindfulness meditation significantly reduces pain, and does so in a totally unique neuropathway that is completely separate from any pain relief that is found through the placebo effect.

The Many Grounding Benefits That Build Over Time: A Complete Review

    I get asked all the time if there is any time too short to get grounded….  to that I say no. Grounding is as instantaneous as flipping on a light switch. When you turn on a light, the entire room is illuminated — that’s what happens when one cell in your body becomes grounded: your entire body is grounded. Because your body is instantly grounded at first contact, there is really no time too little for grounding.  Muscles instantaneously decrease in tension, the brain immediately shifts into more healing brainwave patterns, and our autonomic nervous system gets immediate

Aging From Inflammation Is Totally Optional. Here’s Why & How You Can Reverse It

    More evidence than ever shows that inflammation is not driven by biological age, but rather our lifestyle and environemental factors.  As I’ve talked about extensively on my blog right here, biological aging can be simplified down to a balance between inflammation that accrues over a lifetime vs. your body’s stem cell regeneration. Organ damage as a result of accrued inflammation is something that we associate so strongly with aging that it’s now called “Inflammaging” — depicted in the graphic below.  But while inflammation does drive damage to our organ systems and decreases our body’s ability to repair and

Grounding: The Critical Missing Piece That Restores Your Circadian Rhythm

  Today I want to share with you my latest publication on the importance of grounding to maintain your body’s health.  Just published August 26, 2025 in the Journal of Medical Clinical Research & Reviews, I wrote a medical literature review on the earth’s role in making sure you sleep well at night, and wake refreshed the next day. Sleep is absolutely non-negotiable, crucial for your long term health.  While most practitioners focus on sun exposure to help set the day/night rhythm of your body, the earth itself is actually more influential in setting these patterns.  My article explains exactly

The Entire Universe Inside Your Body (& My Latest Painting)

  As a physician, every single cell in our body is literally like a miracle to me.  How it functions, replicates, repairs, lives, dies, replaces.  The fact that our skin is self healing, our bones fuse back together, we breathe and our heart beats while we use our body to do other things all day long without even thinking about it… … and the fact that all of it, almost every bit of it, comes from cosmic dust and stars — it’s all just so damn magical.  We are wearing solid, tangible bodies — I love the term “earth suits”

New Research Shows This Supplement Dramatically Decreases Aging Of The Skin

  Did you know consuming excess sugar can actually have a cosmetic effect that can be seen in your face? Consuming sugar can actually make you look older — creating wrinkles, sallow skin, discoloration of the skin, and loss of firmness and elasticity.  All known as “sugar sag.” After going through the effort to sticking with natural and holistic beauty products, hydrating well, avoiding photoaging your face, taking high quality supplements, etc… you may be undoing a lot of what you do to maintain healthy skin just by eating sugar.  YUCK. That’s because sugar create advanced glycation end products (AGEs)
