This is a question many of my client's ask. When they get their T score, test results they start to compare with their friend's.

Under -2.5 is osteoporotic and above -1 is considered 'normal' / OK. Are there any clues in their past? Well in this podcast I just cover off a short explanation about lifestyle in childhood, adolescence and dur...

We used to call it stress management, and decades ago I went into Hewlett Packard and trained people in practical ways they could manage their "stress".

The reality that everyone wants to discuss their mental health problems at work is a fallacy. Employees still work th...

The Alexander Yania lesson series is a classic set of lessons, sometimes they can need a little interpretation because the transcriptions are direct from speech. Their would have been a whole class, a group of up to 50 taking the lesson at the same time. So sometimes Moshe would have been commenting on what he could see different people having difficulty with. I've split the whole lesson in two, because lessons can be quite long, the second half will be up later today, recording time permitting....
