Hi All and Happy New Year, I have been in the thick of it the last few months so I have not had time to make an appearance, but I do think of those with whom I have communicated with (your all in my head LOL). I thought some of you might find this article of interest since it sounded familiar...

Hi Bob, Sorry to hear how you're feeling. Just a bit of disclosure, I am not a TMS patient. I am however a co- back problem conspirator! In fact, just recently, my back has started acting up due to physical inactiveness from another injury. I can only tell you one of the things that works for...

Hi Lainey, I agree, as far as I know the placebo effect had been rather consistantly proven and measured proven in percentages ranging from 30-40%. That is quite a statistic. For me, it is well documented evidence for mind-body at work. The interesting thing for me, is that it works...

Hi All, I thought some you might find this of interest. For those of you "young" enough to remember. The 70's was full of inventive and innovative, alternative therapies of all types. I had completely forgotten about this until reading it today. Primal scream was just one among others such as...

Robo, I could not agree more with Plums initial post. GET OUT! It is obvious that you care for this person. Yet, it would be advisable to recognize you are perilously close to the event horizon of this black hole. Save yourself. Because of your personal relationship with this person, you are...

I agree strongly, there is a need for collaboration in order to get an effective outcome. I am a builder also, I have to deal with architects, designers, contractors, and in this analolgy my client is the "patient". Most of you are probably aware of horror stories in renovations, house building...

"One very important thing that we can do is have discussions like this once and a while. Raise awareness for the fact that the way you approach this forum has consequences for your own and other people's health, be it positive or negative. What members do next once they are more aware is really...

Hi Gigalos, Thank you for starting this thread and bringing attention to this. It is fortunate that this mans daughter had the courage to make contact. "Again, there are warnings in the book he read and on this forum at several locations, so we shouldn't need to give such an explicit...

Toronto, Glad to hear you have an awareness of some of the pitfalls with respect to meditation groups. I am often asked questions like you posed at the end. While I certainly am aware of groups with questionable practices to say the least. I refrain from giving out lists of them as some...
