		<description><![CDATA[The Hippocratic Oath (or some oath similar to it) is taken by most medical doctors in the western world.  It is believed that it is based upon an oath written by the father of western medicine Hippocrates in the 5th century BCE.

I am not a doctor and I never give any medical advice, but I think there is a lot that we as practitioners can learn from the Hippocratic Oath.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While on retreat a few years ago Russ Hudson said, <em>"We must be in touch with the mind, body, and spirit in order to be candidates for transformation."  </em>

Because of the nature of the modern world we have lost touch with our physical bodies.  Most of us are not working the land, in tune with the seasons, or using our bodies for work.  Just watch someone who is on-line.  It looks as if they have left their bodies.

It is very easy (and healthy) to reconnect with our physical bodies.  Here is a great FREE tap along to find yourself reconnected with your body.    Take a few moments at the beginning or ending of each day to tap along to this.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the past week I discovered that I have high blood pressure. I am fit, a vegetarian, and in my forties. Because of a medical condition from my thirties the high blood pressure is a serious issue. I am under the care of a medical doctor in regards to this, but am wondering the best way to use tapping to assist the healing process. Also, should I go overboard and tap every hour, or is there such a thing as too much tapping?

		<description><![CDATA[In this episode we discuss how tapping affects the brain and the biochemistry of the body. It is one thing to know that it is possible for us to tap and find relief, but it something complete different to understand what is going on inside the body. When we understand what is going on in the brain and in the biochemistry of the body (and how this effects the way new cells are produced) it allows us to do two things. First, it can help us to tailor our tapping in such a fashion that we can get the most out of the tapping session because we can do it in a more effective way. Second, it helps us to understand the way the body changes so we can more clearly track our progress and maintain realistic expectations of how the healing process is going to unfold.]]></description>
