His name was Jay Johnson, and he was a fellow cancer WARRIOR. I was not very close to Jay, but felt connected to him through my sister, and – even more so – through the strength and goodwill he showed as a survivor. I miss him, as I know many others do as well. My heart is also with Jay’s wife, Robin, who has demonstrated an amazing spirit and support for her Captain. Love to you BOTH, Robin and Jay.

We do it 20,000 times a day, but if you don’t do it right you are affecting your health and happiness in a negative way. Without breath, there is no life. Are you living without life? Here are ways to ensure you are breathing well and living right: 1.  Getting Oxygen. Without it, you die in minutes.

Actually, that’s not quite true. Long-term stress is toxic. In the short term – say, for getting away from a tiger – stress is very useful. It turns you into a temporary superhero. Your senses become sharper to detect danger, your memory is enhanced (so that next time you’ll remember not to blunder into the tiger’s territory), and your blood fills with energy-boosting and protective chemicals and rushes out to your arms and legs so that you can a) hit the tiger hard on the nose and b) run away quickly. So far, so good. The long-term not-a-tiger problem The problem is that in 21st-century cities, what we have is not a tiger (which you either escape from quickly, or… not). We have debts and relationship issues and work pressure. You can&#8...

She’s wagging a finger at him saying, “I’ll give you something to cry about!” Anyone else feeling that way or is it just me? Terrorism, recession, and now what? Swine flu? Oy! What’s next? A plague of locusts? Once again the media pounces and every five minutes we are hounded by how we shouldn’t panic. So much of what’s in the news right now is about as helpful as someone yelling “Fire!” in a crowded theater. “We don’t want you to panic, but there might be a three alarm blaze in the lobby.” Really, is that helpful? So what can we do to address our anxiety over this crisis du jour? Treatment for situational anxiety doesn’t change much even if the trigger causing it do...

Whatever your age, the things you do now will affect you down the road -- it's up to you whether these effects are positive or negative. Courtesy of the Embrace Your Heart blog, here are six things you should be doing, or should start doing, to take care of your health, and life:1) Get informed: talk to your doctor. Find out what illnesses you're at risk for, and take steps to prevent them. Get screened for things -- it might seem scary but you have a better chance of beating them early on than down the road2) Get active: Incorporate some sort of activity into your life ev...
