To all my patients, friends, and Family
June is Pride Month. Its not just for the LGBTQ community. Its an opportunity to see and learn from others, to show love to people in your circle of influence. No one knows the extent of the challenges that one endured before making decisions to be happy and true to their own self. In my practice all people are welcome. As a q***r man myself, the path to embracing change and living life on your own terms is a freedom all should enjoy. Happy Pride 2022.

The Dalai Lama once said that Happiness is the lightest form of health. I truly believe that walking is a part of happiness which can expand upon our joy of life .

I re-engaged with my love of hiking/walking this past January and it has been an inspiration to me.

I want to share a local park/walking area that is at the entrance of Sprague High School in South Salem.

Skyline Trail Loop - This is an absolutely lovely short loop through a city forested area. The song birds and easy hillside walking trail are so relaxing. This trail is a 1.3 mile loop to help one clear the mind and relax as you stroll around on a well maintained path. There are a few side trails that shorten the loop. If you go clockwise you will go slightly downhill and after passing up a small zig zag the loop continues to the right. If you go straight ahead you will end up at the other trail entrance on the school campus.

I encourage my patients to find ways to add movement of any king into their lives. Find a way to add to your happiness each day. Movement increases endorphins and can reduce stress. Please explore this fun path in the south Salem community. You will not be disappointed.
