WST 073: We Want It All

philosophy, health, wellness, politics

In our intense desire to be happy, and within this world of grand promises we suspend logic, reason, and skepticism. We want it all but don’t think we need to do what it takes to get it all. Also, my beef with diet soda. Support me on Patreon My videos now on VIMEO! Health Made […]

New Year. NOT New You.

I have a love/hate relationship with each new year. I love our yearly New Year’s Eve party. I hate cleaning up after it. I love the sense of starting over. I hate that it’s all made up and that we wait for each new year to kick our own asses into gear (let’s face it, […]

I’ve Got This Funny Feeling

WST 066: On Sacred Information

philosophy, health, wellness, politics

Do you ever look over your shoulder at someone else’s life and think “if I just had that?” Most of us do, and yet…to do it less means gathering “sacred information” and holding it close. Like, close.
