it is comforting to think of warmer days ahead.

after some opening remarks from SunRaven's founder, Dr.
Michael Finkelstein. Please join
us. |

Announcing the New Skillful Living
Blog
Over the course of several years I have received
and answered many questions regarding my philosophy and
approach to healthy living. Through my training as
a physician and subsequent education in the field of
Integrative and Holistic Medicine I have come to
appreciate that the pursuit of health requires
preparation, much like any other skill we might wish to
develop. I call this Skillful Living.
Of note, quite recently, I completed the manuscript
for my first book, titled Skillful Living: A New
Paradigm for Health. This is an exciting time for
me professionally and I am looking forward to its
publication and wider distribution.
In advance of this auspicious occasion, I wish to
share many of these insights now and encourage your
participation in the dialogue which I hope will enrich
the lives of many.
To connect, please enter the SunRaven website and
click on the link to the Skillful Living Blog and please
share the link with others you feel will benefit. Talk
to you soon!
