When I was three I drew a picture of my great-grandmother Nana Kathe in pre-school. I proudly brought it home to show her. She asked in her thick German accent “Vas ist das?” as she pointed to tiny black dots I had drawn on the lower half of her crayoned face. Well, I didn’t know [...]

I get PhD-fever every few months. I love biomechanics, anatomy, and physiology so much and there is SO MUCH to learn, that I feel like I am wasting time when I am not studying. Yet I have so many work obligations to the Institute, to the Aligned and Well program, and to my media schedule [...]

Today’s ABC segment featured some exercises from my new Aligned and Well Foot DVD. I can’t believe how much helpful information they packed into two minutes! Watch and learn the calf stretch, toe spreading solutions, tennis ball massage, and exercises for the little muscles of the toes. Foot pain is fixable, but you have to [...]

The government is offering money to those willing to change careers to farming. GET YOUR GOVERNMENT GRANT MONEY HERE!

I love food. Not just any food, but really fine-quality ingredients. And I love health. Some people (my mom) would even say that I am a health expert. And because I speak and write regularly on topics of human science, I always seem to get the question:
“What should I be eating?”
And, I say this. The [...]

I love the section some magazines have where they list interesting and fun statistics, like… 48: Number of bugs eaten per year in your sleep. 3,154: Number of texts sent by the average teenager (per month). 14: Number of states visited in an average lifetime.
I have [...]

Feet are everywhere, so why wouldn’t they be in the news! This just out in today’s Daily Health News this morning – a little article that I was interviewed for gives some tips on foot care. Enjoy!
And for those of you calling and emailing the Institute that would like to know where you can get [...]

The Restorative Exercise Institute is a facility dedicated to the paradigm that movement, and specific types of movement at that, are required in order to achieve optimal well being. We do not subscribe to the fitness paradigm, but rather instruct that aligned, whole-body movement done throughout the day provides the required circulatory benefits, neurological stimulation, [...]

I love watching Southern California weather segments. There are lots of weather warnings and STORM WATCHES. It’s raining here in Ventura, in case you didn’t know. We’re not sure how many people will survive, but keep checking the news. So far there are thousands of worm deaths across the local soccer fields. It’s just horrible. [...]

So it’s Wednesday during the first week of the NEW YEAR and in running to my next meeting, I though I would stop in to Starbucks to pick up some tea*.
While waiting I decided to pick up a “guess how many empty calories/fat/sugar is in this stuff” document-that-the-law-says-they-have-to-put-out-now brochure. I was looking at all 450 [...]
