Something tragic happened yesterday.

If you expected to hear about cannabis today, go to my YouTube channel. I produced a fifteen minute video on the subject.

Stay tuned; on Monday I’ll be talking about cannabis.

Exercise for Parkinson’s disease has three functions: aerobic conditioning; strength training, and neuroplastic change.

To shape your inner mind, you have to know what’s there. Sort it out. Make choices. Add new merry tracts. (Sad to say, it’s not so easily done. But we will get there as we meander through our various cups of tea.)

There are two functions of intensity. One mires you in knee deep mud. The other focuses your mind to you can master sending a man to the moon. This has gotta apply to Parkinson’s; the Inner Game

Or the lack of it . . .  and what you might do about it.

Yes, but there’s a lot more to it than simply laughing.

While the word, rag, has referred to scraps of cloth, a couple more incarnations of the word make for interesting contrasts. Rag-time became a musical genre in the 1890s. Rag was used to describe syncopation. Then in the last 30 years it means to be petulant and angry. The term itself was a reference to the mood changes women experience with menstruation; though now it’s used equally for both sexes.

Well. Not really, but I do introduce the concept of “a merry heart” and what that might mean for those of us who have Parkinson’s. Yogi once said, “baseball is 90% mental and the other half is physical.” So, I asked him if that might apply to person’s with Parkinson’s disease. His answer, “If you ask me anything I don’t know, I’m not going to answer.”
