DNA Does Not Have to Be Your Destiny!
by Robert Schneider, MD
The cutting edge of modern medicine is coming to the place where mind meets body; where mind meets DNA; where we have control over DNA; where we can modify effects of our genes from the inside out. And this development of modern medicine much parallels the science of meditation and its description and technologies for developing the mind/body connection.
The latest research in modern medical sciences says your DNA is not your destiny. The old paradigm––that your genetic code was fixed, has been superseded. New scientific discoveries show that your lifestyle choices–– what you think, and how you use and develop your consciousness, can change your genes.
Examine the paradigm of modern medical science and you will see the representation of physiology from the surface level of organs, systems, tissues, cells, proteins, and, on […]

The Antidote to “Super-Doctor Syndrome”
By Lorenz Iannarone MD
“Super Doctor Syndrome” refers to a common condition afflicting a large percentage of physicians and other healthcare providers. Left untreated, it is known to lead to burnout. Dr. Iannorone’s biographical essay provides a classic example.
Do you know how “Storm Chasers” in Oklahoma get pumped just by getting into their high-tech machines and going out in search of tornadoes? Or how big game hunters get a rush of adrenaline in seeking “the big kill?” Sometimes I wonder if I just sought out stress for the same rush. People tell me that I’m at my best in a stressful situation. The more chaotic it is, the better and more efficiently I function––making quick decisions and “saving lives.”
I think we’re all stressed as soon as we shoot out of the womb. Bang! “Here I am, […]
