Current research shows a correlation between mood and our microbiome–the dynamic world of bacteria, fungus and viruses that comprises more than 50% of our mortal selves.

Our internal microbes have a big influence on how we feel. They can make us feel grumpy and “shitty” or make us wound up with anxiety and hyperactivity (as in ADHD).

When it comes to long-distance relationships, absence is a lens that magnifies and distorts our feelings. When a partner is out of sight, our minds transform into a blank screen onto which it is easy to project horror movies that are more like sequels to your past traumas.

Do you secretly fear that you’re the victim of verbal abuse? Or are you a verbal abuser?   

Even though verbal abuse doesn't leave visible scars, the damage that hurtful words do to others is often irreparable. One of the reasons words can be so destructive is because our minds can replay what was said again and again. Through this revisiting process, our minds can actually reinforce and reinjure us each time we remember the awful ...

Did you know that the office of Canadian Veterans Affairs is now handing out suicide pills to vets suffering PTSD?

When I saw this story I was livid. A government agency that is supposed to protect its vets has found a way to assassinate soldiers!

When one is suffering, it is so tempting to take any exit ramp to escape the pain. I get it.

How many vets will kill themselves needlessly as a result of this easy solution that’s being h...

Have you ever noticed that listening is nearly absent in conflicted relationships?

I’m sure you’ve experienced the deaf pit in your own relationships: You have a beef. You try to talk to the other person. The other person doesn’t listen. You get pissed and up the volume, which only makes the other person more deaf.

Now your “discussion” spins totally out of control. No resolution occurs, which leads you to feel terminally ticked of...
