We are living in a time of enormous flux on many fronts, with some of these changes seeming to happen hourly. Whole work sectors are shrinking; careers that people have thrived in for decades are vanishing, not to mention the changing climate and the reordering of the world as...

Meditation for many is hard. I tried for over 10 years, trying every flavor and teacher I could find—zen monks, Christian retreats, new-age gong ceremonies, and hiring teachers. I was a very, very slow learner, and it was so difficult to stay still, but I knew I needed to...

When Ozempic and the related GLP-1 drugs came out—having seen the data on muscle wasting, gastrointestinal problems, and the radical bounce back in weight gain when the drugs were stopped—I was very much the skeptic. For diabetics and those who are severely overweight, these trade-offs seemed worth it, as...

Some lessons take endless reminders, like remembering to drink enough water every day. We forget, and worse, with some things, we are constantly running up against them because of our hardwired negativity biases—a trait that may have been a lifesaver when dealing with a roaming saber tooth tiger but...

This being an exceptionally wintery winter in the Northeast, perhaps now is a good time to...

Look, getting sick all the time isn’t just annoying—it’s exhausting. One sniffle turns into a full-blown cold, inflammation lingers, and, suddenly, you’re running on empty. But what if your body could fight back better? That’s where Tro Mune™ by Troscriptions comes in. At the heart of the Tro Mune™ formula ...
