6/9/10 Springhill Physical Therapy

Monday, June 7th, 2010

Sheri asked me to share my perspective of the difference between health management versus disease management. At their upcoming staff meeting, I will discuss my departure from the hospital-based disease management health care model to the HeartMatters model of optimal health and well-being through intention, mindfulness, and healthful behavior strategies. Quieting the mind, eating well, and routine physical activity benefits all of us; even the “patient” mired in conventional disease management can and will move toward their own optimal health when supported in a small-step behavior change program, such as that provided by HeartMatters.

I am looking forward to sharing the exciting science of behavior change and mindfulness with the staff of Springhill PT.

5/19/10 Eskaton, Nevada County

Friday, May 28th, 2010

Speaking to a mixed audience, the staff and residents of Eskaton, was a rich experience for me because they were all so savvy! As we exchanged ideas, challenges, and successes related to Living Healthfully In A Busy Life, the dialogue transcended age, touching the group with a special connectedness. Intriguing questions, suggestions, and anecdotes were appreciated by those in attendance.

2/22/2010 Your Hearts In Rhythm

Monday, February 8th, 2010

In celebration of National Heart Month, I will present a workshop entitled “Heart Matters: Your Physical and Emotional Hearts In Rhythm”, on Monday, February 22, from 6:30 – 8 PM in the Briarpatch Community Room.
Join me at this interactive workshop! You will learn science-based principles and simple strategies to achieve and maintain your optimal cardiovascular health, in addition to reviewing the benefits of mindfulness for the health of your emotional heart.
Your physical and emotional hearts are one—they work in harmony and reflect the choices you make in the life you are living.  Achieving optimal heart health invites the opportunity to make choices that support eating well, maintaining routine physical activity, and taking time each day to quiet your mind. Both the physical and emotional hearts benefit when you greet each day with the intention to nurture and nourish yourself.
Seating is limited. Your pre-registration makes you eligible to win a 3-month behavior change/optimal life-management program. To register, call HeartMatters at 477-2361 or please go to the HeartMatters website at http://heartmatters.pro.
