There are few areas more in need of positive affirmations than the exercise arena.

If the majority of us were honest, we would say that on a scale of one to ten, the natural desire to exercise would be at a negative 80. Yet, if we were equally as honest, we would have to admit that after we engage in exercise of any form, we feel awesome and invigorated; and, for that brief post-exercise moment, the same scale would jump to a positive 80.

So why is it that our...

When I was in school training to be a psychotherapist, one of my professors introduced me to a concept that I find very valuable: "bad faith."

It took two years of suffering with that terrible noisy ringing in my ears before I finally learned that tinnitus can be treated.

It was a fortunate day when I was...

Dear Jane,
I’ve done a lot of healing work and want to help others, but I sometimes get discouraged. I think, “What can I, as one person, do to make the world better? I’m not Nelson Mandela or Mother Teresa or some brave whistle blower.” I guess I’m overwhelmed. How can I get over this hurdle?

We are not beings apart. We are not made to ignore suffering in the world. As we tend to our own wounds with compassion, we are naturally drawn...

Dear Jane,
I am the consummate chameleon. When I'm with one group of friends, I'm a partier. With my church friends, I'm quieter. Who am I really?
