Background

Over a year ago I made the conscious decision to orient my career towards a new set of goals:

• Continue to learn and disseminate understanding of health & physiology

• Avoid drugs & surgery, for patients and for my loved ones

• Use feedback from people, not central authority

I view these changes as necessary for a long, fulfilling, and fruitful career in medicine. This was paralleled by changes in orientation within my private life. An orientation towards family, sovereignty, and spirituality - for lack of a better word.

This re-orientation of the mind and heart were incomplete without the body. I believed a physical practice was important to complement this journey.
