Brain Blog: Our hearts beat the language of love

How Our Hearts Beat Together 

 The heart beats at intervals and its rhythm allows us to connect with others. The science of love and connectedness is called Heart Rate Variability.  The first organ that we develop is the heart; before we breathe, think, digest or suck our thumb, we must have that initial spark that makes our heart beat.

Health Blog: Is There a Better Way to Breathe?

The ancients knew the importance of breathing

Aside from the absolute need for breathing air, we can be aware of the quality of the air we are breathing, and recognize the vital nature of breathing air beyond the acquisition of oxygen alone. Additionally, we can apply techniques of breathing that enhance our wellbeing and health in a multitude of ways.

Mom Blog: Date Night… It’s Important

Date night is important for parents to have a happy relationship

Most parents are in agreement that date night is great and an incredible gift to give their relationship. It provides space for a couple to disconnect from their role as parents and reconnect as lovers and friends. However, it is common that parents forget to or donʼt make time for consistent date nights within their life.

Health Blog: Make this year count in a way that is inspiring and meaningful to you!

You’ve still got time!

It is not too late to make reasonable goals for 2012I used to make resolutions.  They were always things that were good for me.  Like, “this year I am going to floss my teeth.”  Or “this year I’m going to go to the gym regularly for sure.”  At some point, (after years of making them) I realized that no matter how great my enthusiasm come January 1st, by the time March rolled around I had all but forgot my resolution.

Health Blog: Exercise – The Fountain of Youth, Part 2

 

You can boost your immunity through proper exercise

Knowing the proper way to exercise will go a long way to keep your body young and stave off disease. Starting in adolescence our body’s internal army, the immune system, slowly begins to lose its ability to fight off invaders such as viruses and bacteria. The reason for this is believed to be the gradual shrinking of our body’s primary organ of the immune system, the thymus gland, which begins to shrink around puberty and by age 60 is barely visible.
