Good Health in Hard Times In this practical, reassuring and inspiring speech, Dr. Atkinson cuts through the clutter of information to give your audience the bottom line on achieving optimal health. She goes straight to the heart of matter, teaching participants where they'll get the "biggest bang for their buck." Because we all increasingly have limits on our energy and finances, Dr. Atkinson focuses on what's really important. She reveals what works, what doesn't, and where we should spend our precious time and hard-earned money to achieve optimal health. The 5 Keys to Maximum Health We are living in "a land flowing with milk and honey" and it's killing us. Our Western lifestyle drives inflammation in the body, which plays a primary role in the development of our killer diseases. Our society also promotes shallow and self-centered behavior, leading to depression and despair. Our deliverance, insists Dr. Atkinson, will come not from diet or exercise alone, but from expanding our sense of what it means to live a good life. Revolutionary new studies reveal that "doing good is good for you." Women, Stress and Fatigue: Effective Solutions to this Very Real Problem (Women, Stress and Fatigue is also presented as two separate keynotes, see below in additional consumer keynotes.) Stress and fatigue are problems that increasingly plague American women. And too often, we are not taken seriously. Increased economic hardship—added to balancing work and family, caring for aging parents, and coping with the daily onslaught of demands, just to name a few—have all contributed to unprecedented levels of stress and fatigue. But the good news is something can be done. Speaking from her own experience and myriad other women, Dr. Atkinson reveals the major energy drainers and major energy boosters, and gives powerful practical pointers on how to beat stress and tip the energy balance.
