Each year, pick one of these that you’ve never done before:
1) A new dance
2) A new martial art
3) A new team sport
Do at least ten sessions that are either group (good enough) or private (best) lessons where you get a chance to get feedback on what you’re doing wrong, or where the sport has enough stakes attached for the game itself to gi…

And fix your training program.
If the injury was substantial enough to permanently remodel tissue (stretching ligaments or tearing something that needs to be reattached) the need to rehab is quasi-permanent.
But “rehabbing” is often just doing exercises you should do anyway with greater and more intentional focus.
For example my left shoulder dislocated four times and had one operation when I wa…

Part 2 of 4 of the Benzodiazepine Series
Benzodiazepines are marketed (informally) as “psych meds” as if they primarily act on anxiety and stimulation circuits in the brain, but there is no such thing as a “psych med” because there are no targets that are only found in the brain and because there are no drugs that when taken orally primarily go to the brain.
They have the hi…

No one will EVER make sense of this until they realize that
1) THE role of serotonin is to adjust ALL mitochondria to situations of absolute or relative hypoxia both inside the body and throughout every tissue of the body.

Mold toxins are mitochondrial toxins, so exposure to them would cause a third layer of mitochondrial dysfunction.

Jordan Peterson’s health has been suffering tremendously.
Mikhaila, his daughter, saw that what was ailing him was affecting so many systems of his body that it had to all be connected and began to wonder if it was a form of mitochondrial dysfunction.

Living in accordance with these laws keeps us on the path to vibrant health.
We defined health.
We’ve put our sights on the North Star.
We know how to know when we’re healthy.
But what do we do to get there?
If we have arrived at the promised land, how do we stay there?
How do we explore it more deeply to discover the riches of its treasures?

The Definition of Health
Health, noun, The ability to meet the demands of your life with abundant energy, to rest and recover fully, and to be as adaptable as needed to how demands may change over time outside your control, or to how you may choose to willfully change the purpose of your life.
