While many of the most powerful changes we hear about come from within, there are some simple changes we can make to our outside environment that can have far-reaching effects on our internal health.

How many times have you tolerated feeling “bleh” after eating dairy? Now before you think I’m off my rocker, let me say I am not saying that dairy is inherently bad. But I do want you to know your body and be informed about the pros and cons of what you feed it.

Your whole health picture includes far more than just the physical side of things. But getting everything in balance can seem overwhelming. Luckily all it starts with is a small, teeny tiny step in the right direction...

I am on a mission, not just to help people quit smoking and feel healthy and strong, I want people first to quit feeling ashamed for reaching out for help in the first place.

While you don’t hear health talked about holistically in our culture very much, it’s scientifically supported that multiple areas of life need to have balance and coordination for you to be at your happiest and your best.

I would say it is. And I see it affecting people’s psyche just as much as their physical body. I have never met anyone who tells me that they are proud to be smoking.  I (also) believe that everyone deserves to live a life that they are proud of.

After you’ve wrangled the kids to eat their dinner, brush their teeth, read a story….we usually just want to sit the hell down and relax for five minutes! But my friend’s story got me thinking...

There’s a misconception that being resilient equals being tough and getting on with it! But it’s actually about learning how to be ok experiencing difficulties, instead of avoiding them. Here are 6 ways to start building your resilience muscles!

With our stressed-out, super-busy, hyper-caffeinated, modern world, quality sleep often takes the back burner. And the repercussions show up in our health and around our waistlines.

I cannot even begin to tell you how many times I’ve heard people talk about how important an evening and morning routine is. But I’ve always thought to myself ‘No! That’s for kids or old people. I should be able to do whatever I want to! Be spontaneous!’ It’s embarrassing to admit that I never believed...

I don’t know how you feel about weepy doctors. Some say it’s unprofessional. Some say it’s unhealthy. I say it’s a li’l embarrassing, but overall just real.

The cold will be here before you know it, and with that brings all of those fun little germs your kids bring home everyday. And believe it or not–there’s actually some very practical and simple steps you can take to keep your immune system strong when the snow starts falling.

It occurred to me the other day that even as we are on to fall sweaters and football and school routines, we don’t have to leave all the summer fun behind. Why not extend your summer fun and healthy habits?

To gain an even clearer picture of how Signature Primary Care works, check out this super simple video that explains the entire process of this amazing new way to work with your doctor! 

The biggest benefit this far for me has been the convenience factor. Since I travel so often, and I'm always running somewhere – being able to text a question or issue, or even a photo has been a lifesaver. To have access to the typical tests and paperwork (i.e. work physicals) that I can schedule on my...

Your Signature Primary Care membership has a list of benefits between you and your Primary Care doctor. With at-cost prescriptions and direct access to your doctor, this is the way healthcare should be. One of our favorite perks with SPC is saying goodbye to the unexpected insurance costs you...

While it's important to not base decisions on cost alone, we all know that final choices are heavily influenced by the numbers! In many ways it'd be logical to price Signature Primary Care much higher than what we have, based on the value received from our massive list of benefits. The good news...

It's really an interesting thing how with signature primary care you have such a different type of access to your doctor. Whether it be Skype, phone, texting ... I'm able to connect with patients in such a personal way now.

Everybody has a threshold. You can only let things build up so much and then when you reach the threshold it hits you...usually in a way that really gets your attention. You can determine your threshold in different ways. You feel anxious, you catch the flu, you lose your temper, you throw your back out...

The crinkle of the brown paper bag makes just enough noise for “that person” to look down in shame as you inwardly think to yourself, “why is he wasting his life away drinking?” The newspaper crashes down...

What if this happens? What if that happens? Maybe she’ll do this. Maybe he’ll think that. Where is she? What is he doing? What are they thinking?

Have you ever thought things like “My little bit of help really won’t make a difference” or “We have problems right here in the United States. Why should I worry about somewhere so far away?”  I think most people at one point or another have entertained those thoughts. 

Hmmm...a blog post on how to say No?  It’s easy right? Just NO.  Last post I talked about how difficult, but yet how important for your health it is.  So it’s hard and it’s important, but can it get easier? Yes! Practice makes...easier.

I opened my email, saw the name and knew what the email was about. It’s that time of year to secure the leadership positions for next year. Either you move onto the executive leadership slate, or it was time to roll off the Board. Leadership in this board is on my bucket list.

It began with the, "I’m getting tired", and then onto the slap happy and wound up scenario, followed by the giggles, then being distracted from the bedtime routine by any little thing, more jumping around, and finally she landed the plane by wrestling with the dog...

Passing along some food for thought.  You here about many cases of unhealthy and unregulated products slipping under the radar.  Many more of those are imported than made here.  But perhaps the real point is to read labels to be an informed consumer about what is in a product...
