New Adventures
My most recent article in A&U Magazine focuses on assorted healthy possibilities for the new year.

What didn’t quite work for me? What aspects of my being should I continue or set aside?

Team Effort
The latest article, "Team Effort", in my column, The Whole Perspective, in A&U Magazine.

Meditation, cognitive healing, visual and positive imaging, empowerment coaching and varied forms of therapy and counseling are all considered complementary and alternative options that can nurture the mind, lift the spirit and support mental health. This is an important task when we consider the depression and anxiety that can accompany living with HIV. What precisely do we wish to accomplish by engaging in treatments that focus on the mind and spirit? Certainly, the answer to that question will be personally driven and different for each of us.

Meridians of Health
In the September issue A&U Magazine, my column, The Whole Perspective, focuses on an introduction to acupuncture.
Acupuncture is an Eastern healing modality that is said to have originated some 2,500 years ago. It falls under the umbrella of Traditional Chinese Medicine. While it originated in China, it is now widely practiced in the West. Very simply put, acupuncture is a form of complementary and alternative medicine that involves inserting thin needles into the skin, or pricking the skin or tissues with needles, to alleviate pain or to treat various physical, mental, and emotional conditions. But how does it work and why do people living with HIV sometimes look to acupuncture as a complementary therapy? The short answer is a small word with a vast meaning: qi. Continue reading....
