Cat Bath Training by Michael Harris, PhD
I was reading an article on cat training so I thought I’d offer a different point of view. The article starts out with this statement…”The most effective cat training is best done early”, and I completely agree. It was after the first sentence that they began to lose me. It has been my experience that most of the “sage’ advice on what animals, especially cats, are supposed to do will be correct if that is the way you treat them, as objects or as something other than family.

“Need an Exercise Training Partner… How About Your Pet?” By Michael Harris, PhD
I’m one of those people who exercise. Yep, I walk, I do yoga and the other day I woke up in an ever-so-slightly crabby mood. Which was a little unusual; I’m normally a fairly perky guy. My overall moods are stable and my general outlook on life is positive. But I also allow for those occasional days where you’re not exactly functioning at peak. I decided to go for a walk knowing that when it was over my biochemistry would be elevated with endorphins and sure enough, I was correct.

Pets and Natural Disasters by Michael Harris, PhD and Amy Robinson (Col. Potter Cairn Rescue Network)
With all the current global weather problems I’ve seen in the news recently, I can’t help but notice that it is only once in a while do they report any news about animals. These reports are usually the work of some person in a resource group or emergency services and a little PR release. Without these volunteers and groups we would probably hear nothing. Animals aren’t news.

Secrets of Sending Healing Energy at a Distance by Michael Harris, PhD and Dr. Laurie Nadel
Healing is healing; the chief objective in healing situation is that the person, animal, place or object (think Planet Earth, oceans, volcanoes, nuclear reactors) receives what it is that they need from the universe. The example I will be using is the current situation in Japan. The news and surely the people there are out-putting lots of thoughts of fear and uncertainty.

The Dilemma of Pet Abuse and Bullies by Michael Harris, PhD
We are seeing a lot more in the media about bullies, both singly and in groups, and how they are reeking havoc on our youth and pets. I know this has been going on for lifetimes. There are also statistics showing that fledgling serial killers usually warm-up on animals, first by injury or burning and then later escalating to murder and dismemberment. It’s disgusting to read about or see in video but the fact is we can’t turn away just because it makes us uncomfortable. These two links are the most recent; link 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZh7q8kGFyU&feature=fvstr

Starting a New Exercise Program by Michael Harris, PhD
Many of our customers after taking our Genostim product (www.genostim.com) discover in addition to feeling better, that they have a desire to begin moving around more and EVEN (gasp!) begin exercising. I applaud that desire and support it fully. Beginning a new exercise program can be complicated as well as sometimes painful to those not used to the feeling of muscles being stiff or sore and the additional stress of unknown conditions of the body. It is always a good idea to get a full checkup from your primary physician before starting any new exercise regimen.

3-Steps To Asking Better Questions by Michael Harris, PhD
Everyone knows one of THOSE PEOPLE; someone whose language patterns are so negative that you wonder if anyone can help them out of their “self-imposed messes” that they have created. I get those too, not a lot of them, but occasionally. I have a client that for a while now; I’ve been attempting to help with their present issues without much movement one way or another. Generally, my solution when I encounter people or clients like that is LET THEM GO. I figure that whatever

7 Tips for Managing Your Emotions by Michael Harris, PhD
We all from time to time encounter situations that make it hard for us to remain calm, cool and collected. Some people are a bomb ready to go off at any second while other just go with the flow? What is it that we are trying to accomplish? Why do some things just make us go crazy while other things that bother the “coolest cucumber” just roll off like water off of a duck’s back? The answer here is once again, our friend, the “lizard brain”. Our reptilian brain is a very ins

When kids go back home? By Michael Harris, PhD
What would you do if your parent asked you to move back home to help with managing the household because your other parent was ill? What if you lost your job and couldn’t find a new one? What if a combination of factors-including but not limited to the recession, economy and life issues-created circumstances that meant your best choice was moving back home as a 40-something or 50 –something adult? A client of mine is dealing with this precise issue. She was contacted by her

Did someone give you a “Thought-Virus” by Michael Harris, PhD
Thought viruses are statements, ideas or comments, beliefs or beliefs about beliefs (also called values). There are two parts that you need to know about “thought viruses” the first of which is, that these beliefs come in many forms but mostly from people in positions of “authority”. The other part that you need to know is that these “thought viruses” can be on any logical level that your brain processes information. The logical levels of the brain for informational and stra

A MESSAGE TO GARCIA by Elbert Hubbard, 1899
In all the Cuban business there is one man who stands out on the horizon of my memory like the north star at midnight. When war broke out betwee Spain and the United States, it was very necessary to communicate quickly with the leader of the rebels. Garcia was somewhere in the mountain fastnesses of Cuba -- no one knew where. No mail or telegraph message could reach him. The President must secure his co-operation, and quickly. What to do! Someone said to the President, "Th
