Science can be so cool and amazing!

There I said it. I admit it. I'm fascinated by the scientific world and I love doing research.

As much as I am equally devoted to intuition and spiritual pursuits, I have an analytical mind that revels in creating hypotheses, gathering data, and testing results.

In truth I come by it honestly, all those days as a kid asking "why", "how come", and then stating "well it could happen", created the perfect environment for being stimulated and inspired by discovery.

Overview

Sometimes it can begin as a simple musing or noticing something in the environment and wondering why this or why that. Most often though, my desire to research a particular topic is fanned by an undying passion to help people understand themselves and heal from the many insults and injuries they may have experienced as humans on the planet. 

That's why mostly I can be found researching topics like the impact of music and movement on the ultradian healing response, the best dietary interventions for a posttraumatic nervous system, or the psychophysiology of taste and flavor. 

Recent peer-reviewed publications: The Neurobiological Mechanisms of Spontaneous Transformation

Recent White Papers:

More To Come...

Currently, my focus of research is on the psychobiology of taste and flavor. What happens when we learn how to identify flavors, really taste and enjoy our food? How does it impact us biologically? Psychologically? Spiritually? Does increasing the Mmmm factor of your food help heal what ails you? I believe so... and so far my research supports this idea.
