New Year Resolutions for Wellness by Dr Frank Lipman

Timeless advice to stay vital and well from our archives…

20 ways to add MORE to your life, this year and forever!

When I qualified as a Doctor at 25 years old, I thought I knew everythingthere was to know about health and medicine.

By the age of 30, I realized my medical training was limited and I didn’t really know much about health and wellness.

So I went on a journey of discovery to expand my horizons and studied acupuncture, Chinese medicine, Functional medicine, nutrition, yoga and Buddhism.

By 50, I realized my life training was limited too as my daughter (a teenager at the time) was pointing out “how stupid” I was.

And now that I am 55, I realize I have amassed a lot of knowledge but have so much more to learn.

As I get older and hopefully wiser with every year, certain insights become clearer.

Here are some of them gleaned from the wisdom I have gained from 30 years of marriage, having a 22 yr old daughter, 30 years of practicing medicine and being a perpetual student of life.
