Life just can’t get any better. Two research findings have stated the obvious. One claims that dark chocolate is healthy for you. The other discovered that puppies and dogs are good for you as well. I wasn’t born yesterday. In fact I’ve lived over...

I learned something this past week. My heart might not be ‘two sizes too small’ after all! Seriously, I had a very odd reaction to spending time with my mother and father at the hospital. I spent two days this past week, all day, 10 hour plus days, just...

I just got back from my run. It was a beautiful day. Absolutely gorgeous for MN in August. On the outside it was marvelous. On the inside I was a storm of emotions and discomfort. My brain was a mess. Worried about this. Concerned about that. Is the economic...

Minnesota. Winter. Forever and ever. I was supposed to take delivery of my bees on April 9th. But low and behold, that is not going to happen. The cool thing is, it is not due to weather in Minnesota. Nope. It is due to the cool weather in California. Queen bees...

Just watched a great TED video on living a life in balance. It brought to mind a good friend that has a very successful business. We were once talking about his business, success and about planning it all out. He made an interesting statement. He said that he never...

“You know Ross, when I was on vacation, I noticed I didn’t hurt. I have come to the conclusion that all this stuff is caused by stress in my life.” That is what a patient told me while receiving a massage. She pretty much hit the nail on the head....

If you are in the midst of a cold this season and are wondering what that green oil was that I used last winter, it is called Olbas Oil. I wish it was an ancient Chinese secret, but it is not. It is a Swiss herbal remedy made for over a 100 years. I get it either...

The Mississippi River is high. Just the other day I watched as two Jet Ski’s played in the water. My wife came home the other day and was telling me about a duck crossing the road with her ducklings and how cute it was. As I write this, my stomach is full...

Actually it was probably more like 30,000 Bees and they were behind the back seat of the truck. I finally got the bees up to the lake without an auto accident. I was sort of stressing because I wanted to get the bees up to the lake and settled before the...

“I’m tired of taking drugs. This is what I like about your work. It takes care of the pain without destroying my liver.” That is what a patient said to me this week. And I have to agree with her 100%. I’ll be the first to admit, I take the...
