by Dr Praver 6-16-09 I began talking about love and the brain yesterday. President Obama considered empathy as central to his pick for Supreme Court judge. By empathy he meant the ability to walk in someone else's shoes, not to be like them, but to resonate with them. I think empathy is essential in the psychology of politics and in the psychology of love. If extreme right wing and hate groups had more empathy... 6/16/2009 12:25:24 PM
by Chani There is nothing prettier than shapely legs and a round back side! I hear all the time...I want to tighten up my thighs, and lift my butt. Lyposuction aside, you have to build the muscle. All hail the stiff legged dead lift! I change it up a little by adding a step and a stretch. Stand on a step about 5 inches from the floor. Bend at your knees to pick up the weight. I use dumb bells or a barbell.... 6/15/2009 7:29:41 PM
by Dr Praver So much hate out there. Extremism, terrorism, abortion doctor killings, white supremacist killing blacks and Jews, what about love? Remember the love generation of the seventies? I miss it. Do you? As a psychologist and book author, I think it's time to bring love back. If we all focus on the psychology and neurobiology of love we could even usher in a new era. Did you know that the psychology of politics... 6/15/2009 9:55:24 AM
by Chani You better think again... When my grandmother had reached her 82nd birthday, her mind was sharp as a tack, but her body failed her. I so vividly remember sitting with her on the couch as she couldn't hold up her head due to a muscular degenerative disease and osteoporosis. She said, "You don't even think about your health when you are in your 30's or 40's, what would I be like had a I taken better... 6/9/2009 3:14:54 PM
by wojcik11 A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection that begins in any part of the urinary system, from the kidneys, to the ureters or bladder and urethra. Women tend to be at greater risk of UTI and are generally prescribed antiboiotic treatment, which in some cases can lead to recurrent infections due to increasingly resistant bacteria. There are, however, natural remedies for UTI that could prevent... 5/28/2009 10:54:02 AM
by Chani Every day I watch women young and old, come into the gym get on a piece of cardio equipment, and sweat for an hour. Well, cardio is important and good. But, if you are looking to make changes to your body, it's going to take more than that. First let's tackle the too much cardio. If you aren't eating enough healthy food, your body is breaking down from all that crankin' cardio. Soon you will be a "skinny... 5/24/2009 10:51:35 AM
by Inna In this blog, I would like to focus on the topic of breast cancer. I won't be addressing the things you probably already know about breast cancer but will focus on some new studies along with a recently developed Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Test from Metametrix Laboratories called the Extronex 2/16 Assay. There is a growing body of research showing that it is not simply the amount of total estrogen... 5/23/2009 1:35:48 PM
by Beth Rosenshein Starting around age 30 women are encouraged to no longer postpone childbearing. The reason given is that as a woman ages through her 30's into her 40's her fertility will continue to decline, along with her ovarian function, until she suffers ovarian failure (menopause) and is no longer fertile. This is true if nothing is done. The reason that ovarian function and fertility continue to decline is an... 5/20/2009 7:07:19 AM
by Andrew Pacholyk by Andrew Pacholyk, MS, L.Ac. From a healthy heart to a good sex life, the proper flow and circulation of blood in our arteries is one of the most important things we can do to maintain good health and push back the aging process. There is a common denominator between good arterial health and disorders such as heart attack, obesity, diabetes and high glucose levels, as well as sexual health. That common... 5/16/2009 7:24:06 PM
by Andrew Pacholyk by Andrew Pacholyk, MS, L.Ac. The term erectile dysfunction covers a range of disorders, but usually refers to the inability to obtain an adequate erection for satisfactory sexual activity. More common in men older than 65, it can occur at any age. As men age, it is normal to experience changes in erectile function. Erections may take longer to develop, may not be as rigid or may require more direct... 5/16/2009 7:23:18 PM
