WVIZ: Featured Program: 'Real Age Makover'
WVIZ/PBS: Featured Program
Last night on PBS I got to see (well I caught bits and pieces of this, I was too tired to focus) the amazing Dr. Michael Roizen and a wonderful special on how to ad years to your life.
Dr. Roizen is co-author of the following books:
As well as:
Dr. Roizen co-authored with one of my other big-time 'heros' Dr. Mehmet Oz - Dr. Oz is an extraordinary man, a world renown cardiologist and a Yoga enthusiast (he does Yoga in between surgical procedures)....
Then I realised (oh my goddess) *WE* have Dr. Roizen at OUR institution....today I wrote to the head of the Center for Integrative Medicine - told her about the program and she is working on networking with Dr. Roizen - I have never been so excited - like I might actually get to meet and WORK WITH these people - I mean it's just mind boggling - and what's even better is that I am on the same page with the medical director for the center and she values *my* lowly opinion...I mean that is so cool (have to remind myself NOT to talk this way in front of these people) - but it IS wonderful and here's hoping that we will be able to network and bring all of this knowledge and benefit to our employees as well as patients....
***************
It's not cool however to do this 'roller-coaster' thing...but I suppose if one has to live one's life then a roller-coaster is just as good a vehicle as any other - obviously I am going to have 'things' in my life that I can't control or feel are controlling me or hindering me (like the taxing emotional toll of raising a teen-aged boy to become his own man) and then there are the 'highs' of being able to know you are doing what you 'love' to do and what you want to do while making a difference on this planet and you can get excited about that....it's weird, it's thrilling, it's *my* life...
