Pain is Weakness…

Leaving the body. That’s what my daughter Viki says when she works out.

Now when I exercise, I am able to push just a… Read more »

Pain is just an…

Interpretation. In science, it’s called “pain perception”. When the pain receptor (nocirecptor nerve ending) is stimulated, nerve impulses go up and down our spine in the lateral spinothalamic tract, to and from the brain, allowing us to respond or react to the stimulus.

Everyone you see today…

Has their own Challenges. Challenges are just part of the deal. Some may have health troubles or financial concerns, while others may be experiencing relationship woes…we’ve all got something – don’t kid yourself. And so do you. It’s life. Everything can be perfect, but for only a short while…because things change. We may want to… Read more »
