 A Family Tradition; Doctoring with Love by Dr Brie I did not think I had any doctors in my family as I was dreaming of becoming one. Recently, my 92-year-old grandmother told me that her aunt was a doctor. She mailed me the obituary article about my great aunt, Dr Sippel.

SELF CARE PART 3: Seeking Joy By Gretchen Frey, MD We’ve talked about reducing stressors, and about implementing practices to focus on the positives in life. For the final installment in our self care series, I wanted to look at increasing sources of happiness, or what I would classify as seeking joy. Sometimes it’s not enough to banish the news and count our blessings. Sometimes we have to actively seek experiences that lift our spirits and/or cause us to forget the various dark clouds hanging over us. Click the link below to explore a few possibilities.

Once we’re present, it’s a good time to “change the channel” on our usual thought patterns. If we look at life through a different lens, we can come away with very different feelings. Below, we’ll talk about some reframing practices; then, we’ll examine some specific focused meditations and prayers for those who are cultivating a daily practice.
