Our brains are designed to adapt, heal, and thrive. Yet modern stress, lifestyle, and environmental factors can hinder cognitive function. Patrick Porter, Ph.D., a leader in neurofeedback and holistic brain training, demonstrates how we can boost focus, memory, and emotional resilience through holistic practices. By integrating brain exercises, neurofeedback, and lifestyle strategies, he’s learned and witnessed that mental performance is not fixed, but can be trained and strengthened over time. Dr. Porter is back and he will share how BrainTap empowers anyone seeking better cognitive health, sharper thinking, and overall brain fitness, naturally and sustainably.

“You can take a pill, or You can take Responsibility!” ®

There are moments in life when everything in us wants to pull back, disengage, or escape what feels uncomfortable or overwhelming. I’ve learned that leaning in, gently and intentionally, can transform those moments into opportunities for healing and growth. When we stay present with what’s difficult, we begin to understand our triggers, soften our reactions, and reclaim our power. This practice isn’t about pushing through pain; it’s about listening, creating space, and responding with wisdom rather than fear. I will share how leaning in has allowed me to build emotional resilience, deepen self-trust, and move forward with greater peace and clarity. Would you like to do the same? Let’s learn how, together!

Understanding disease begins with seeing the body as an interconnected system rather than isolated symptoms. Thomas Levy, MD, JD, a world-renowned expert in integrative medicine and cellular healing, identifies oxidative stress as the primary driver of disease. He offers insights on how targeted interventions can restore health naturally. Through his work with vitamin C, hydrogen peroxide, oral detoxification, and mineral optimization, he demonstrates how removing obstacles and supplying the body with the right tools empowers it to heal itself. We will discuss Dr. Levy’s new book The Only Cause of Disease. He will share how prevention and recovery are possible when we address the root cause, not just the symptoms, giving hope and practical strategies for anyone seeking lasting wellness.

As a Certified Life Coach and Certified Holistic Cancer Coach, I’ve observed that while many people are willing to invest time, money, and effort into improving their physical bodies, they often avoid tending to their mind and spirit. They offer excuses like lack of time, money, or the belief that they “don’t need it, but my (add name here,) does!” That’s why I am introducing something new in The Classroom: Free Life Coaching Sessions. A loving, judgment-free space where you can ask questions about anything causing pain, confusion, or uncertainty and gain clarity, perspective, and direction. Coaching isn’t about being told what to do; it’s about asking the right questions, reconnecting with your inner wisdom, and moving forward with intention. Each week, I will select requests to explore during The Classroom for the benefit of all who may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for something more. If you’re seeking encouragement, empowerment, or clarity, email your questions to me at [email protected]

Extraordinary living doesn’t happen by accident. It happens by choice. Last weekend, in my blog, I created the acronym JAPHILAFF as a simple reminder to prioritize Joy, Acceptance, Peace, Health, Inclusion, Love, Abundance, Forgiveness, and Focus in our daily lives. These principles serve as guideposts for making intentional decisions that nourish our body, mind, and spirit. As I reflect on how I practice JAPHILAFF, I see how laughter, curiosity, and a lighthearted perspective help me stay grounded, consistent, and aligned with my values. This approach empowers us to live fully, embrace challenges with grace, and create a life that feels both meaningful and playful. I will share how we can all live a life rooted in JAPHILAFF!

Violence isn’t only what we see on the news. It’s the inner turmoil, resentment, and fear that cloud our hearts. Renowned Course in Miracles teacher, author, and master educator, Carol Howe, reminds us that peace starts with one choice at a time. Through conscious awareness, forgiveness, and love, we can dissolve the emotional barriers that create division and suffering. Carol shares how to recognize subtle forms of inner violence and transform them into compassion, clarity, and calm. The end of violence truly begins when we remember who we are… we are love itself.

Each new year offers an invitation to begin again. Yet traditional resolutions often leave us discouraged rather than empowered. Over time, I’ve learned that lasting change doesn’t come from rigid promises, but from intentionally choosing what truly aligns with our values, our health, and our purpose. As I reflect on what I want for 2026, I lean on cultivating a mindset that supports clarity, consistency, and sustainable well-being, mentally, emotionally, and physically. Choosing intentions over resolutions gives us permission to grow with grace, remain curious, and stay committed even when life becomes challenging. I will share wisdom drawn from Jesus’ parable in Matthew 9:17, of pouring new wine into old wineskins… a powerful reminder that meaningful transformation requires creating space for the new, and why we should let go of old patterns. How has pouring new wine into old wineskins kept you from achieving your goals? What would staying committed with grace, rather than perfection, look like for you in 2026?
