Wow! So, I came across this article in the New York Times about 'pelvic fitness.' Essentially, the article profiles a gynecologist who performs pelvic reconstruction surgery in New York. She said she got the idea for opening a pelvic spa while walking by a tooth whitening clinic. You can read more here.

What are your thoughts on pelvic fitness? Is this an area that needs to be toned and rejuvenated? Or do you think this is just savvy marketing designed to rake in the cash?

Sexual needs and desires evolve as much as women themselves, but change is not always bad.

Whether women are 30 or 60 years old, if they have a desire to rekindle a sexual romance founder of Women’s Sexual Health Foundation Lisa Martinez says go for it.

Reaching 60 years old was once looked upon as over the hill. However, with a combination of communication and desire, couples can enjoy sex at any age.

As Martinez say, “The first step is to rekindle the relationship.” She says scheduling a date night to solely talk and get to know one another again is highly important.

Thank you for your questions and comments. Let's look more closely at the impending June 10th issue.

Part of my job is to provide education (facts) regarding health issues. I don't usually impose my personal belief system on anyone. But since you asked, Tina, the answers to your questions are 'yes' and 'yes'. It's about health issues AND health freedoms. I will detail:

Friends and Colleagues,

We are facing serious health freedom consequences in the US that have not been mentioned during the nightly news.  Please take a moment to look at the attached Health Freedom Alert regarding vaccinations which will, for the first time in US history, make infant and toddler vaccinations MANDATORY.   I have researched the rise in number of infant thru 12 year old vaccinations over recent years.  The numbers are staggering.
