Ok......so I did something unusual for me today.......I am flying to speak in Europe this summer. If you are a European member you might want to pay attention to your emails. If you are all in I might consider doing a VIP. Seems Dr. Wunsch and I will be doing something rather unique at this gathering. This could get interesting for those who like adventure. For my members, even in the familiar, I make sure there can be surprise and wonder when I blow into a town to speak. July 2-7 in Europe. Two countries......two audiences. It takes a courageous fool to say things that have not been said and to do things that have not been done......yet by any Black Swan.

 

The worst part of being okay is that okay is far from happy. People forget we create our happiness from our choices. People often come to me asking for medication. They are often sick and tired of feeling sick and tired of some malady. They are tired of their sad mood, fatigue, and loss of interest in things that previously gave them pleasure. Their days are routine: unsatisfying jobs, few friends, lots of boredom. They feel cut off from the pleasures enjoyed by others.
Here is what I tell them: The good news is that we have effective treatments for the symptoms of depression; the bad news is that medication will not make you happy. Being outside in nature provides a light that creates happiness. Happiness is not simply the absence of despair. It is an affirmative state in which our lives have both meaning and pleasure when we are fulfilling our cognitive bias of living in nature.
The irony of life, In general, we get, not what we deserve, but what we expect from our lives. Few of us realize we can change the tension in our lives with new choices.

 

On being renewed and being solo........'Single" means you are brave enough to face the glorious unknown of the unaccompanied journey. I'm ready for it. They better strap in. The animal is out of the cage.

 

Governments come in all forms. Sometimes life mimics music. Governments don't protect people, people protect governments.

 

I don’t work for the hospital.
I don’t work for admin.
I don’t work for my partners.
I don’t work for politicians/government.
I don’t work for the dean/university.
I don’t work for shareholders/CEO.
Regardless of my practice type,
I work for each of my individual patients.
I don’t work for industry/big pharma.
I don’t work for special interests.
I don’t work for my employees.
I don’t work for MYSELF.
The universe is constantly talking to you. Are you listening to what she says or are you worried about what everyone else is saying about you?



The berth surrounding my body crushing every bit of bone
The salt, it seeps in through the pores of my open skin
I wait on you inside the bottom of the deep blue sea
I wait on you inside the bottom of the deep blue
Welcome to my cage, little lover
Attempt to rearrange with you, baby
Still don't know your name, Miss Honey
Let's go up in flames, pretty lady
The sweet surrender of silence forces me to live alone
Locked and loaded, where the hell is peace of mind?
I wait on you inside the bottom of the deep blue sea
I wait on you inside the bottom of the deep blue
Welcome to my cage, little lover
Attempt to rearrange with you, baby
Still don't know your name, Miss Honey
Let's go up in flames, pretty lady
Welcome to my cage, little lover

The extra mile is a vast, unpopulated wasteland where the Black Swan goes.

People say they go the extra mile, but almost no one actually does. Most people think, "Wait, no one else is here. Why am I doing this?"

The Black Swan is rare because their mindset is unique.

That's why the extra mile is such a lonely place for the common man. That's also why an extra mile is a place filled with opportunities. Be early. Stay late. Make the extra phone call. Send the extra email. Do the extra research. Help a person solve a difficult problem. Help a customer unload or unpack a shipment. Don't wait to be asked for help; offer. Every time you do something, think of one extra thing you can do--especially if other people aren't doing that one thing. In this unpopulated wasteland, many will ask you why you persist. Tell them your using nature's light to sculpt your life by thinking better than you did before.

Sure, it's hard, to think anew and adapt. Being solo in the modern world is not something to fear........it is something to conquer.

But that's what will make you different and unique--and over time, it will make you incredibly successful when you begin to write your next chapter. It will be a book all will want to read when they see the words of your story spill all over the pages...........
The science nature uses is what makes my work quisquous. Deal with it because it makes you rare

It's not hard to decide what you want your life to be about when it gets right down to it. What's tough is figuring out what you're willing to give up in order to do the things you really care about. Decisions, good and bad build your destiny. Beautiful paths can't be discovered without getting lost in the weeds. Do things so you have no regrets when your time is over.

Waiting for "them to change" hurts. Forgetting them permanently is going to hurt even more....... But not knowing which decision to take can sometimes be the most painful to make in a relationship........
You are not the victim of the world, but rather the master of your own destiny. It is your choices and decisions that determine your destiny. This is a great lesson I have learned in 2019.

Black Swan's implicitly know that it is most wise to seek deeply to first understand as best we can, then to be understood by opening our mouth to teach the wisdom we've collected to others. There is a duty in this mission to help the clueless properly. This won't be popular but it is true.

There comes a time where you sometimes have to accept that someone you really want just isn’t the one for you. It’s sad and heartbreaking but also a harsh truth that many of us have to face. This is me accepting that reality in a blog.
This is me accepting that you’ll never be mine. Ever. Not now. Not in the future. Your road is not paved to go the same way as mine. And while so badly I want to convince that it is, I think somewhere deep down inside of me I always knew.

It doesn’t make us bad people. It doesn’t make you the villain. It just means that you were not expected to be the main character in my story. While what I want is to wake up next to you, wrapped in your arms and see the breaking dawn with you, it’s never going to happen again.

It breaks my heart to know that you will never be the person I spend lazy Sundays with. You won’t be the one I look over at on our front porch when we’re in our 70s and think ‘yeah I love you more now.’ You won’t be that person because you don’t want to be that person for yourself first.

This is me accepting that this is just not our destiny. Our souls aren’t meant to intertwine any longer. Our hearts will never beat as one again. Our entanglement is over.

And even though I’m accepting there will never be an us again, it doesn’t mean I don’t love you or did not love you. It doesn’t mean that I won’t carry you with me forever. I will. Energy like this cannot be created or destroyed. It forms a new form. That form is our offspring.

There’ll be times that I’m going to wonder where you are and what has happened to you. I’m going to think about that maybe I should call just to catch up with no other intention other than to see how you are because I will always care. But I won’t reach out. I won’t because we’ve said our goodbyes and we’ve made peace. My goodbye is right here above in a blog.

There are many things I hope for you. That you meet someone who loves you as much as I did and still do.

So, this is me accepting that you’ll never be mine again no matter how much it hurts to move on and leave you behind. This is me saying goodbye without wanting to, but I have to, to keep my sanity. I will not forget you.

 

Resistance is a sign from the universe that shows you're going the right way.........

 

“That which we persist in doing becomes easier to do, not that the nature of the thing has changed but that our power to do them has increased.”

It’s impossible to describe the pain and struggle of the past few years. If ever there was a time to throw in the towel, this was it. One thing that has kept me going is the words of a mentor in my head. Every time I’m tempted to give up, make excuses, or start feeling sorry for myself, I hear him saying: “So what?!”

While the road I’m on is indeed ‘one less traveled by’, we all face enormous challenges in life. We all have health issues and feel the sorrow that comes with the illness or loss of a loved one. Many suffer from the consequences of abuse or addiction. Divorce and failed relationships are commonplace, and even those in relationships often feel alone. Parents struggle with the decisions of their children when they are sick or embroiled in a separation. Children struggle to find their own path in both cases, all while trying to be accepted by their peers, and living up to their parent’s expectations. Whatever the challenge we face, the truth is that we all struggle. No one is immune to the pain that comes from the difficulties of life.

During these difficult times, we have moments where we feel extreme sorrow, hurt, and pain. We feel overwhelmed and our self-doubt is crippling. The reality is that no matter what road we decide to take next, each one will leave us bruised and broken. The healing process takes years, sometimes decades; and still leaves behind scars. Life changes us if we allow it too. We can use this chaos to improve. We will never be the same person we were yesterday, yet these are the moments that will ultimately define us. The choice is ours whether our struggles make us or break us.

The moment I stopped making excuses, my life changed. Consistently doing the right things every day took me from barely breathing to surviving, from progressing to thriving.

 

SUNLIGHT STIMULATES SEROTONIN PRODUCTION VIA THE SKIN

Human skin has an inherent serotonergic system that is capable of generating serotonin.

What happens as a result when serotonin drops? You become unable to handle acute stresses and mental illness becomes more likely. This is especially true for mania, depression, and seasonal change. This is why bipolar disease, EHS, chronic fatigue, infertility, poor libido, and poor sleep all are related to melanopsin damage caused to serotonin photoreceptors in the skin and eye. The absence of serotonin in the brain alters acute stress responsiveness by interfering with the genomic function of the glucocorticoid receptors. When these receptors are altered by this oxidation they no longer work as they should. When this process begins in the eye and ends in reduce the GR by adding electrons to it.

How does a lack of this aromatic amino acid cause disease?
Interestingly, serotonergic projections innervate the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus as well as the brain regions involved in the stress-induced activity of the HPA axis, including the prefrontal cortex (PFC). This is why PVN damage is associated with EHS, POTS, and adrenal fatigue. I covered this in the Brain-Gut #16 blog years ago.

Serotonin helps the brainstem humans get a condition called adrenal fatigue where it appears there is a global dysfunction of how their hormone receptors operate. This can alter how the brain functions to lead to many different types of mental illness. This paper lays out the physiologic basis of this process that most allopathic doctors deny or are ignorant of the mechanisms due to a lack of knowledge about how light sculpts life via the skin. Become a member and learn more about this mechanism to stay well.

The day this was taken I knew everything in my life would change in a few hours. I will never forget that day

 

I laughed today when I heard a former member's critique of why I sold some real estate in 2021. I was told he was quite confident in his opinion why I sold out a friend. I chuckled. Confidence is ignorance. If you're feeling cocky, it's because there's something you don't know.

Never listen to the ignorant^^^^.
Never listen to an ignorant man's report on something you said because he can only understand you from the perspective of what he heard and not what you meant

This is why the greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge. This is why ignorance is the cornerstone of fear.

My path is described the following way: I've always wanted to understand how one comes to have to flee one’s original environment you were born into. I decided as a young person to study history and politics but was forced to learn about civics. Wanting to understand the behavior of an accused, I studied psychology and got a degree in it. To understand psychology and the science of behavior clearly, I stumbled upon the functioning of the human brain. Thus, I studied biology, chemistry, and finally biochemistry. I became a brain surgeon because of this fascination. Going further To understand life more fully to understand chemical interactions, I began to study particle physics. Then I realized particle physics was a partial solution and QED and quantum thermodynamics were the key to understanding life. From physics, I moved on to astrophysics and cosmology. I then began to tackle the fundamental questions: matter, the vacuum, time, and its unique direction (the arrow of time). To understand the arrow of time, I finally had to study dissipative structures of Prigogine.

When the ignorant ask me about my path I tell them a cup of coffee got me started on this path. I looked down into the coffee 20 years ago and asked, "is my cup of coffee a clock that can explain life?"

Nature has a numerical symmetry. This numerical asymmetry, and the curious fact that energy started out ultra-concentrated at the beginning of the universe, are why energy now moves toward increasingly dispersed arrangements, one cooling coffee cup at a time.

Not only do energy’s strong spreading tendency since the Big bang and entropy’s resulting irreversible rise seem to account for time’s arrow, but it also accounts for clocks. LIGHT MAKES OUR CLOCKS TICK

The collisions of light on electrons in proteins began to click out the “clock of events” for life to begin.

When I looked at the biological bitcoin clocks in 2021, I knew it was time to move on from real estate. The ignorant will never get to this level of understanding.

There is a reason people lose their edge. When they live in the wrong light their brain shrinks. Funny how MRIs are accurate on these folks when we look.
Natural facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.
Living is easy for those whose eyes are closed.
People are responsible for their ignorance.

 

There's always a way to do "it" better and it's our job to find it. Creativity is not just the finding of a thing, but the making something out of it after it is found. Anyone can look for fashion in a boutique or history in a museum. The creative explorer looks to make an impact in the world using the things right under their noses. Discoveries are often made by not following instructions, by going off the main road, or by trying the untried. The future belongs to those who see possibilities before they become obvious. This time in my life, I see that in El Salvador. It is my Birthday present to me today.

 

12/26/17, I decided to find out if she really loved me, I hooked her up to a lie detector. And just as I suspected, my machine was broken.

That "machine" died valuing my advice but never using it on himself. His pilot light went out when he refused to leave OZ.


We should all listen to the voice of nature, for it holds treasures for you. I think we should do the same for our friends.
I had a wonderful time at dinner last night with two friends, one new (Jason) and an old one (Margurite). Sometimes those who we give the most are the ones with the least to spare. This was was the first time I have ever done an educational consult at a dinner table in a crowded restaurant. LOL. It was done on both of them. One asked for it, and the other had no idea what she was getting.

It is good to help people you care about whether they know it or not. Doing nothing for others who you think highly of, is really the undoing of ourselves. That is how you extend your reach and your dopamine network to find the right people in life.

Good friendship is a state of being where I think we learn that we need each other more than we want to admit. One of the most important things you can do in this life is to let people know they are not alone when they face a stressful environment. My take home from the interaction was this: Every game in life is winnable between people if you change your mind about what "the prize" should be and your perspective about the players at the table.

How do you do life? Some of us save lives in our own way daily. We just use different methods for "our magic".


My way: A beautiful life is produced by the fortuitous concourse of atoms under the direction of a wizard in the sky called the sun. Life is an encounter: the encounter between painter and model. The sun is the artist and our hydrated proteins are the canvas for the sun. If you want a masterpiece let the artist do its work.


Have you considered "touching" someone today? Be an oasis for someone else by inspiring them. Inspiring people is easy; share your love of life with others. Breathe your positive attitude into them. Inspiration can change people's lives. Motivation is external action, like a push of a swing, but inspiration is internal action and more like a pull up of the soul. Inspiration will cause people to have hope and dreams again. People will start to see their possibilities by using their imaginations, They become "sparked" when the 'oxygen of inspiration' is released to them. Today, be a life dispenser to someone with the words and actions you take today and touch someone today with your uniqueness.

People are like crayons. Most people you meet are the 8-pack of crayons. They have all the basics present, but not much nuance and have a superficial depth when they paint their life. Because of that, some life artists strive to be the 64 box of colors to gain an appreciation of the complexity in life. This paradox is seen in two crayons. The most colorful thing in our box of crayons is black and white, they contain all colors and at the same time exclude all. These colors can turn your personal painting into a piece of the earth's puzzle so that our unified assemblage of thoughts, experiences, and lessons reveals common truths that cannot be denied.

Walking around just looking at people interact last night got me thinking about friends. If you can read this........I am thinking about you in some small way. You won't know how, but that is immaterial know there is a profound reason in some deep neurons in my mind. You’re not like any other keeper of a bond I’ve met before. I’ve seen us together in the most unusual way, and more than anything I have seen you treat others as a friend, through my perspective. You have no idea what I saw. I saw you look at and treat others as an equal when equality was far from the mean. I saw "them" look back at you with hope, and in some cases even more than that.

You could not have seen what I saw. I know that whatever bond you share with each other, it’s something tangible and powerful. Cruising around it's clear to me, a person of wisdom must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends naturally. Some of you, I really don't like, but I respect and choose to interact with you regardless because you have a quality few do. You are my beautiful mistakes Friendship marks my life even more deeply than love has. For me, it is the rarest of traits. Love risks degenerating into our personal obsessions, but friendship is all about sharing irrespective of emotion. People you share with, you learn about in ways you cannot assess about strangers. I know this juxtaposition in life I embrace fully, but few will understand because they run from this chaos I am speaking about today.

It is an unpopular stance I am posting about here, hence I like it. You have to embrace the suck. If you can read it, judge me below. For me, courage within friendship becomes real when you know implicitly at the outset you're licked before commencement, but you start anyway and see things through no matter what because folks are counting on you in some small way. Sometimes, reaching out to another's mind is the beginning of a journey. At other times, touching their hand allows another to take your journey. Not letting go is the bond I'm looking for. No person is your friend who demands your silence or denies your right to grow.


The answer to "Who is this person" is not a personal question at all. It is a way. a pattern, a trend, a behavior, a habit. Think, Listen, React, then do with the right crayons. The choice of crayons varies over time and you should be OK with this
Listen to what is bothering you on the inside............today and do something about it. This is why I am posting this today

This message might be a message to you signaling an opportunity to get back on the path to finding the treasures buried in your life.
Off to the airport to teach/color in Nashville with a new box of crayons.

 

Divorce wisdom: The true test for a family is not loyalty it is sacrifice.
