  • 6/5/23 Foot and Ankle Care

  • 5/8/23 Finding Hope and Calling in the “New Normal”

    For many, the mental health effects of COVID have lingered even as our world has gotten back to “normal”—or at least the “new normal”—following what seems to be the worst of the COVID pandemic. Some people report just feeling “blah,” like they’re simply going through the motions, with little sense of calling, purpose, or passion. So, what’s going on here? Shouldn’t people be feeling better now that the intensity of the pandemic has lessened somewhat? Why are so many people finding it hard to re-discover a sense of passion or purpose in life? These are some of the questions we grapple with in this episode. Host David B. Feldman speaks with Dr. Diane Dreher, PhD, positive psychology coach and author of several books, including Your Personal Renaissance and The Tao of Inner Peace.

  • Getting Unstuck! Healing Patterns of Stagnation

    Being stuck is a familiar state that many of us feel. Sometimes we try to move forward and despite all the tools and techniques we’ve learned, we still fall back to familiar patterns. Take a journey along with Thuy and Juliana as they connect the dots to uncover deep unresolved issues that influence patterns of stuckness and stagnation stemming from childhood sexual abuse and patterns of unworthiness. Once these patterns are seen in the light, deep healing can occur.
