Dr. L.'s Healthy Practices' Podcast
This podcast covers a variety of information concerning healthy practices, including, but not limited to mental health, physical health, self-improvement and personal development. While I will, at times, be the main speaker on the podcast, most of the time the narrator on the podcast will be a team member from my parent organization - StressHealth Solutions International (or SHSI). That said, I am referring to the structure of the podcast as more of a "Narrative Podcast." For the most past, the podcast will consist mainly of a narrative introduced and presented by one of the team members at SHSI, and it will not have or follow the more traditional format of one-on-one interviews. The decision was made by the team that this format allows for greater and more frequent coverage of a variety of health and health related information. You can listen to both present and past podcasts by visiting our website at: drlhealthypracticespodcast.buzzsprout.com. Also, if there is an interest in learning more about informational activities associated with Stress Health Solutions International, please visit our parent website at: StressHealthSolutions.com. As a very important disclaimer, please note that the primary purpose of this podcast is to provide general educational information on health and related subjects. The podcast does not constitute advice or services and all listeners should consult with their medical and other qualified personnel for advice concerning medical and medical related actions and services as needed. Thanks, Dr. Livingston (Dr.L.)
