You Are Made Of Stars (My Latest Painting + A Round Up Of My Favorite Holistic Healing Articles)

Healing Artwork, Medical Reports, Soul Healing / By Laura Koniver, MD

As a physician, every single cell in our body literally seems like a miracle to me. How it functions, replicates, repairs, lives, dies. 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, how we create life, how little humans grow within us and are born. 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 …

Why You Think More Clearly When You Spend Time Outside

Grounding, Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine / By Laura Koniver, MD

We already know that grounding (touching) the earth outside immediately impacts our brains. This fantastic medical study, published in 2018, documents the brain wave shifts that happen near instantaneously, within milliseconds, recorded via an EEG (electroencephalogram) when the human body is grounded. Today I want to share with you a sneak peek of my next medical journal publication (submitted for review and accepted for publication in Open Journal Of Neurology & Neuroscience) where I suggest why it’s easier to think, and even get clarity and flashes of insight/intuition, when we are outside in nature. While grounding …

How Grounding Boosts Your Mood + 10 Ways It Fits Into Your Day Today

Grounding, Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

We’ve know for a long time (and honestly common sense and personal experience tells you this as well) that time spent outside lifts your spirits. In fact a double blind medical study published in 2015 found that participants who were grounded had measurable improvements in mood that were significantly higher than the sham-grounded participants. We also know that inflammation in the body worsens mood and even plays a role in clinical depression. A medical study published in 2016 found that increased inflammation in the body worsens symptoms of clinical depression, and this one published in 2019 backs …

On the other hand, it really doesn’t take that much movement a day to boost your health and reap tons of benefits. Here are three impressive benefits of moving your precious body throughout …

New Study Finally Reveals If Vitamins Help Improve Cognition As We Age

Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

A new study, published Sept 14, 2022 in Alzheimers & Dementia, is the largest randomized clinical trial on multivitamin use in healthy brain aging. It’s a three year long trial following annual cognitive assessments on over 2,250 patients that were randomly assigned either a daily multivitamin, a 500 mg daily flavanol supplement (from cocoa extract) or a placebo supplement. What researchers found was that not only did taking a daily vitamin help preserve cognitive function, but it actually helped significantly improve it over baseline (and over placebo) by the third year. Meaning it didn’t just help prevent cognitive …

Moving Your Body Helps Your Brain Function Better, Immediately. Here’s How

Electrosensitivity, Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

A recent medical study caught my eye, so today I am excited to share it with you here. Researchers were looking at how movement helps to boost memory, and found that there are literally immediate benefits to your memory function after exercising just once. Published September 2020 in Scientific Reports, this study finds that one session of exercising (cycling on a stationary bike was the exercise used in this study) significantly improved motor sequence memory — immediately! This is super encouraging, because it was not looking at just the long term benefits from exercise (which of course …
