Staying positive during difficult times
To say we’re living through challenging times sounds like both a cliché and an understatement. In recent months, news about the pandemic, economic woes, and bitter political debates have triggered tremendous anxiety and sadness for many Americans.
But when people look back on their lives, it is usually the most difficult challenges that gave them a new perspective or caused them to grow the most. Of course, in the midst of a crisis, it doesn’t feel that way. But there are steps you can take to cope during difficult times, using techniques from the field of positive psychology.
How can positive psychology help in tryin...

CBD for chronic pain: The science doesn ’t match the marketing
If you ask health care providers about the most challenging condition to treat, chronic pain is mentioned frequently. By its nature, chronic pain is a complex and multidimensional experience. Pain perception is affected by our unique biology, our mood, our social environment, and past experiences. If you or a loved one is suffering from chronic pain, you already know the heavy burden.
People are looking for novel, nonaddictive ways to treat pain
Given the ongoing challenges of chronic pain management coupled with the consequences of the opioid epidemic, pain management practitioners and their patients are searching for eff...

New Cato Book: Ten Global Trends Every Smart Person Should Know: And Many Others You Will Find Interesting
In conclusion, I hope that you will buy this book and share it with your family and friends. It is meant to be a conversation piece. Instead of gathering dust on a bookshelf, it is designed to lie on a living room table (like so many architecture and interior design books), for visitors to see and discuss over a martini or glass of wine. I hope that it will alleviate some depression and anxiety, spark a fact ‐filled discussion around the dining room table, and maybe even change some minds. Strangers things have happened. Cheers!

How the Pandemic Is Taking Its Toll on Our Mental Health
The year 2020 will go down in history as one of the most devastating in history. Hundreds of thousands have died and millions have been hospitalized due to the novel coronavirus pandemic. COVID-19 has changed the lives of so many.
No matter where you live, dealing with the effects of economic and physical lockdowns in a community leads to multiple mental health challenges. After months of living with the coronavirus, many people are getting tired, burned out, and more and more frustrated.
In America, we face a particular challenge. Our federal government has chosen to take a backseat during the pandemic. Instead of leadin...

On Stress, Yoga Meditation, and The Evolution Revolution
In the Tale of Two Cities, Charles Dickens wrote:
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness…. It was the season of light, it was the season of darkness. It was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair”
Yes, the period of which Dickens wrote is a lot like the present day.
We are living through extraordinary times in a complicated world. In my 74 ½ years, I’ve never seen anything like it — from the virus to political strife to protests, stress is rampant.
Stress may impact negatively virtually every system of our body, from the immune sy...

How to Get Into Star Trek
This article idea was suggested by a Conscious Growth Club member. After a little reflection, I thought, why not?
I’ve seen every episode of every non-animated Star Trek series, including the original 1960s classic, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Enterprise, Discovery, and the new Picard series. I’ve seen many episodes multiple times. I’ve seen all of the movies. I’ve been to a Star Trek Convention in Las Vegas. So I’m pretty well versed in Star Trek lore.
I met William Shatner (aka Captain Kirk) very briefly when I was in my 20s because we had the same lawyer for a while...

Seven evidence-based reasons to start meditating yesterday
Yes, starting today is OK too.
I started meditating soon after 9/11. I was living in Manhattan, an already chaotic place, at an extremely chaotic time. I realized I had no control over my external environment. But the one place I did have a say over was my mind, through meditation. When I started meditating, I did not realize it would also make me healthier, happier, and more resilient.
Having witnessed the benefits, I devoted my PhD research at Stanford to studying the impact of meditation. I saw people from diverse backgrounds from college students to combat veterans benefit. In the last 10 years, hundreds of studies hav...

Forgiveness: Yes? No? Maybe?
“My step-father abused me, and my mother is always telling me to forgive and forget.” Jodie shook her head ruefully.
“And how is that going for you?” I ask.
“Not so good,” Jodie replies, “I’m not doing a good job at all.”
Alex shares, “My counselor told me if I don’t forgive my uncle for raping me, then I’m allowing him to live rent-free in my head.”
“And how is that going for you?” I ask.
“Not so good,” Alex cries, “I feel like I’m failing at recovery!”
Both Jodie and Alex — and countless other survivors I work with — have been instructed that to forgive and to forget is...

I ’ve Kept an Expressive Writing Journal for 4 Decades — Here’s Why
This week, at the end of an online poetry class, our on-screen instructor asked, “Why do you write?” Then, she added: “In writing, what is your greater purpose?”
Now, I’ve been writing for myself and for publication since the mid 1970s. And, over the years, as I teach or lead narrative writing workshops, I’m sure I’ve posed that why-do-you-write question to my own writing students. But, shame on me, I had never really posed the question to myself.
Truthfully, for the rest of that day, as I tended to my usual work and deadlines, the instructor’s question niggled at me. Then, next morning, instead of penn...
