The Gift of Self-Respect

It’s Christmas time—a time when most people are opening their pocket books and their hearts to give presents to the people they love. It’s heartwarming. Even I, who believe that a present should be given any time you feel so inclined and not at a specific date, feel the spirit of giving more than usual. Today, I noticed myself humming tunes of love songs and then even inventing words to them that include the people I love.

However, for many people festivities like Christmas bring up lots of emotions, and for lovers who are on the verge of break-up, festivities usually are very stressful and breakups can be precipitated by expectations that the lover does not fulfill.

“Why buy an expensive gift for a girlfriend I don’t respect?” a young man asked me the other day in a counseling session. As he described her, she sounded like someone no one would like to spend his life with her. Follow for more . . . » »

We know about the healing properties of fresh, home-made food. But what about fresh, home-made, loving sex?

One of the best ways to live longer while feeling and looking younger has a lot to do with giving and receiving love and having good sex. As you’ll see, it also helps stave off colds, which is good news come the holiday season.

I saw Dr. Daniel G. Aman present astounding facts about the brain at the World Anti-Aging Conference last year. Dr. Aman is a brain specialist who wrote an amazing book called Magnificent Mind at Any Age, about the brain’s effect on how we feel, our outlook on life, our longevity and our ability to be happy and healthy.

In his presentation to about 2,000 doctors interested in age management and preventive intervention in maintaining a healthy body healthy into old age, Dr. Aman mentioned a Cleveland Study based on the beneficial results to men who were feeling loved. 10,000 men who participated in this study were asked the question: “Does your wife show you love?” The ones who answered Yes were statistically proven to live significantly longer than those who answered No. Follow for more . . . » »
