Before You Fill That Prescription . . .

The four essential things you should know about any treatment – prescription or herbal. What you need to know before you fill that prescription. Is anything free of side effects?

The Third Question and the Third Mantra: What am I doing? Walk in Grace.

Dr. Dave walks with Vanessa through the third level in his 7 Questions, 7 Mantras Meditation method. Too often we act automatically or reactively and find ourselves far from where we want to be. We are judged by our actions even when they don’t reflect our authentic selves. To walk in grace is to act in alignment with your deepest values and greatest goals. Ask, “Am I moving closer or further from my true self.” To walk in grace is to accept each day what life gives you as a gift – to be graciously opened and used.
