So many of us take our body for granted. While it requires physical fitness and proper nutrition, our skin is the largest organ and also requires attention. During these colder months of the year, hash winds and temperatures can lead to excessive dryness and cracking -- whether your indoors or outside. Hydrating the skin is not only protective, it can also be a means of relaxing and calming nerves. Light fragrances within moisturizers can be a great way of having a sensory es
A limited rotation of commercials can easily position that the solution to any ailment is a prescription. Sometimes medication is the answer. However, exploring healthy self-care options should also be considered before a chemical one. Support: If you’re lucky to have a go-to circle who won’t betray your trust when you are most vulnerable, make some time to discuss the weight of the world -- YOUR world. Remember, there is no shame in seeking out support who make it appoint to

It is accepted wisdom to say that the Top Five Stressful Situations people face include the death of a loved one, divorce, moving, major illness, and losing one’s job. All of these situations are very real vexations on the soul and require different strategies and tactics to overcome. They also can come in bunches because that is how life goes sometimes—when it rains, it pours. When we are confronted with the most serious challenges that life can offer, the stress can become
Out of Gas. Burned Out. Done. Each of these familiar expressions may resonate with most of us juggling a work-life balance. However, when your professional life requires empathy and you’re operating on fumes, could this be doing a disservice to you, a client or a loved one? There are many roles, occupations, and relationships that cause us to bear the burdens of the traumas of others. Consider the folks that we call when there’s a crisis: police officers, doctors, social work
There are times when we are confronted with life threatening situations. You could be crossing the street when a car flies through a red light. Maybe you’re hiking in the woods and get completely lost despite your best preparation. Those are the times that we may need a hero, a rescuer, a First Responder. There are natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods due to hurricanes or record setting rains as in Louisiana. We also see all too common wild fires, such as in Californ
Around the world, people have been reflecting this week on the events of 15 years ago on September 11th. As a native New Yorker (pronounced “Noo Yawkuh”), I can tell you that there was a tremendous lesson learned in those tragic moments and the horrifying aftermath of the collapse of the World Trade Center. It is a lesson that I hope that the collective WE can learn, understand, and apply in their lives: We don’t have to like each other, but we have to get along. We MUST wor
PTSD. These four letters mean many things to many people--most of them troubling, and justifiably so. According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) develops in some people who have “experienced a shocking, scary, or dangerous event.” Symptoms can show themselves within three months of the traumatic incident, but sometimes it can take years for them to manifest themselves. Most important in this context is they must last mor
Many of us will find ourselves being a caregiver for a loved one at some point. Whether they receive care at home or reside in some type of care facility, the person responsible for their health and well-being (you!) will be compelled to handle a number of problems -- some may not have a desired resolution. What happens to them (and us) when the situation extends for months or even years? Who looks out for the caregiver? We can become so focused on making sure that our loved
