  • Self Acceptance is a Health Issue

    I was asked by one of my readers to comment on the recent events that transpired pertaining to the reigning king of music Michael Jackson.  I don’t mind writing upon request but I have to make sure that the focus stays on the concept of wellness.  As brilliant, and successful, as Michael Jackson was he had...Full Post
