ABOUT US!!

I grew
up in Southern California and owned a sailing business in San Diego. This
is where my wife, Lisa, and I enjoyed small boat sailing such as catamaran
racing and windsurfing.
After
earning Bachelor's and Master's degrees in psychology at San Diego State
University, we moved to the Northwest. I completed a doctoral program
in the Department of Exercise and Sport Science at Oregon State University.
For 10 years I instructed in that department and taught courses in motor
control and movement dysfunction, neuromuscular control of human movement,
motor learning, nutrition, research writing, and various computer classes.
My
primary interest regards the role consciousness plays in optimizing health.
There is a practical link between the mind and body. Every thought and
emotion we experience has a biochemical communication with each cell in
the body. It is important that these communications be positive. This
is best ensured by cultivating a calm mind, which results from breathing
practices, visualizations, affirmations, and sustained inquiry into the
nature of being.
I have
been practicing these techniques for almost 40 years. This is the most
important step you can take to maintain health and live life with vitality.
I have created the three video meditations in the Healing Light Series
to help those with chronic illness realize those goals.
My
wife and I currently reside in the Northwest where we develop and test
interventions for preventing disease.
