In this presentation, Dr. Wolfe explores the life-enhancing role of nutrition, exercise, stress, productive work, the pursuit of mental challenges, and involvement with other people. She also discusses the biomarkers of aging, supplements and the role of the alternative medicine boom in healthy aging. Learn how to live longer and better. FROM STRESS TO STRENGTH Stress is our response to change. Many visits to primary care physicians are stress related and traditional risk factor analysis is not enough to meet our healing needs as whole human beings. This presentation combines the best of Eastern and Western mind-body-spirit techniques to recognize and reduce stress, creating a path to bring the audience back into a state of balance, and teaching them how to be better partners in the health care system. Dr. Wolfe brings her passion for integrating traditional medicine with eastern philosophies to empower her audience with a new vision for health and healing. OPENING YOUR HEART FOR HEALING In her unique, warm style Dr. Wolfe explores with her audience what she calls emotional, spiritual and physical heart disease. With her passion for expanding the scope of medicine, she empowers her audience to go beyond traditional physical risk factors and explores the research that tells us the powerful role family, friends, faith and forgiveness play in our health and healing. BALANCING WORK AND LIFE FOR OPTIMAL LIVING A recent study of more than 50,000 employees from a variety of manufacturing and service organizations found that two out of every five employees are dissatisfied with the balance between their work and their personal lives. Dr. Wolfe's presentation on work/life balance is designed to help participants make conscious choices to improve all dimensions of their health and well-being: physical, mental, emotional, social, vocational, and spiritual. Participants will see their lives in a different light, open their minds to new ways of thinking, and adapt behaviors that will not only improve their health, but will also help them achieve their personal and professional goals. |
