The Most Effective Way To Recover From Cancer

Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Today I’ll be reviewing a recently published study that examines the link between exercise and health… specifically, cancer recovery. Just like last week’s article, the article today shows that being up on your feet — simply walking — is the best predictor of positive outcome in cancer recovery we have. No stressful or intense exercise needed. Just being up and about daily is a better predictor of cancer recovery and reduces mortality rates better than any chemotheraputic agent we have, reports Dr. John Marshall, MD. Published on Jan 13, 2013 in the Journal Of Clinical Oncology, researchers

Studies Prove: Long Term Health Is NOT About Exercising Hard

Female Health, Healthy Mindframe, Healthy Weight, Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

For years physicians have been recommending an exercise program for cardiometabolic health. Well… turns out it’s not really about the intensity of the exercise. Several landmark studies have come out in the past few months revealing that it’s not how strenuously you exercise that matters. In fact, it doesn’t matter if you “exercise” at all. What matters, both in cardiovascular health and in cancer prognosis, among other parameters… is how often you just get up and move around. Answer this… what do you think is healthier? Do you think it is better to: Hit the gym

Since so many women in my practice are affected by fibromyalgia, I’m going to blog about it today with a tribute to the energetic dynamic behind this disease… because shoulder tension is something that is personal for me. What can you do energetically to release fibromyalgia flares? Read on: I carry all of my tension in my neck and shoulders. Painful trigger points, tension headaches, tenderness in my upper back and neck so strong that at times I can’t even wear a bathing suit or a sports bra or a ponytail, or anything pulling on my neck at

Painting the Energy of The Heart

Healing Artwork / By Laura Koniver, MD

Since this is Heart Health Month, it’s the perfect time to show you a little behind-the-scenes of a painting series I just finished! I thought it would be fun to show you all the different layers of paint that went into the final painting. I generally get images or ideas of what I want to paint as I lay in bed at night inviting sleep in. One night I felt overcome with the desire to capture healing images of each chakra, so I spent a few weeks honing in on the words I felt activates the energy

The World’s First Children’s Book about Earthingâ„¢!

Grounding, Positive Parenting / By Laura Koniver, MD

I am so passionate about Earthingâ„¢ that I recommend it every single day to my patients — young and old alike. Connecting to the earth and grounding with your child is one of the best things you can do to support their long-term health. So many parents wanted to know exactly how to introduce Earthingâ„¢ as a healing technique with their young child. And how to explain it to older children who had scientific questions. Some parents wanted to know about what to do during bad weather or in the cold winter. Some were already connecting to the earth
