‘Computer neck'' is that achy, tight area in the back and sides of your neck that seems like it won’t go away no matter how many visits you make to the massage therapist. The neck can turn into numbness and tingling in your arms and fingers, cause low back pain, tension headaches, and eventually irreversible damage in your spine. On top of that, a lot of tubes run through our neck area that are in charge of lymphatic drainage, arterial flow, digestion, and respiration. What does this mean? Well, if we are chronically tight in our neck muscles, this can lead to not only issues in our spine and upper extremities, but respiratory issues, cardiovascular diseases, and even changes with digestion. This is a big problem!

Read MoreAccording to research, if you can think it, feel it, and put action toward it, then that possibility may manifest for you. I see it as having a goal that you are working towards. If you have no goal, then you have no trajectory and no way of knowing when you have achieved that goal. ….

Read MoreI commonly get people in my office that have pretty serious chronic issues including - but not limited to - low back pain, frozen shoulder, sciatica (which is pain that runs down the leg), migraines, hormonal issues, numbness or tingling in the fingers and toes… you name it. One of the first questions that I like to ask is “do you have any scars?” This throws people off a bit. Why would a scar be connected to my issue? Well, scars - especially the large and poorly healed ones - are very commonly the source of chronic symptoms.
Read MoreIt bugs me that as a society we don't like to talk about money. We have no problem getting together with our friends and talk about the new diet we are trying or the issues we are having at work, but personal finances is almost a no-go zone in our culture. We need to get out and talk about these things so today I plan to share with you a couple money managing techniques I have learnt over the years and within our finance club.

Read MoreI have been watching a bit of Queer Eye lately. I find it quite inspiring how the “Fab 5” take people who haven’t really thought about taking care of themselves before and inspire them to be better. They explain in the show that the way we choose to present ourselves in the real world (whether by chance or intentional) is a direct expression of how we are feeling on the inside. They also explain that we are all worthy of feeling good about ourselves and therefore should look good too.
