Ever feel like you are missing the mark and not really sure why? Like most people on the planet you just might have a saboteur at work that undermines you. The Saboteur is a fear-based aspect of the mind that prevents us from reaching our goals. Saboteurs are tricky parts [...]

Previously I was not really aware that aging doesn’t naturally mean decline in brain function. Genes do play a role, and there is scientific proof that we can improve brain function even [...]
During January I noticed serious brain fog– misplacing keys, my cell phone, even forgetting an appointment. A rather scary experience when I’m used to a brain that serves me well.
