Chapter 5. Why Rest Does Not Always Restore Energy.

There are evenings when a person finally gets what they have been waiting for all day. The door is closed. The phone is somewhere nearby but, for once, nobody is calling. There is food in the kitchen, the work is over, and there is nothing that absolutely has to be done in the next ten […]

Chapter 4. The High Bar: Who Set It, and Why Do We Keep Trying to Reach It?

There is a particular kind of exhaustion that does not come from the amount of work itself. It comes from the feeling that whatever has been done could still have been done better.

How to Fix Tennis Elbow at Home: 3 Simple Self-Tests and a Real Exercise Plan.

If you’ve got a nasty ache on the outside of your elbow, welcome to the club. It’s commonly called “tennis elbow,” though honestly, most of my patients have never even picked up a racket.

Not because there is some special post-hemorrhoid menu that has to be followed perfectly, but because bowel movements become part of the recovery itself. A hard stool, straining, or several days of constipation can turn an otherwise uncomplicated recovery into […]
Where Does Stress Live?

There is a particular kind of discomfort that is difficult to explain to another person. The neck feels hard by the end of the day, the shoulders seem to have climbed almost to the ears, there is pressure somewhere in the throat, or the lower back begins to ache after a difficult conversation even though […]
Chapter 3. The Environment as a Hidden Source of Exhaustion.

There are rooms that make you tired before you have done anything in them. I do not mean this metaphorically. You enter, sit down, look around, and something in the body has already started working. The light is too sharp. A chair does not quite support you. Someone is speaking from another room. A door […]
