I was invited to be a vender this week at the Caring for the Caregiver conference in Anacortes. It was designed to combine individual caregivers of ill and elderly with professionals in that same industry to come together and hear some good news. To break away and be inspired.
I set my table up with a hot towel cabby and a few of my marketing materials and was at the ready to offer some nurturing thru hot towels and sea weed wash. Because the vender tables were in the main room, the presentation could be enjoyed by everyone. It was a wonderful treat.
Lennie Mees, M.D. from Portland Oregon was the key note speaker. Very small world that it is, he lives just blocks from our old house in Eastmoreland on Portland's southeast side. If you google his name, you will come across several behavioral engineering sites and a few slideshows of work he has done with Nike and OSHA. He needs a website. I thought what he had to say was so profound that I wrote enough notes for several days of blog material.
Get a Life America is a book he wrote years a few years ago about our frantic society. With a great deal of humor and personal testimony, he schools you. Stress = cocaine use on the body?
Really? My intention is to share, over the next few days, other amazing gems!
