The discovery of a true lymphatic network surrounding the brain has been called one of the most significant breakthroughs in modern neuroscience, challenging the long-held belief that the brain was an "immune privileged" organ completely isolated from the body's immune and waste-clearing systems. In 2015, researchers independently identified a network of meningeal lymphatic vessels nestled within the dura mater, the outermost membrane covering the brain.
This "missing link" fundamentally changed the understanding of neuro-immune interactions. The lymphatic system, traditionally known for collecting excess fluid, filtering waste, and transporting immune cells throughout the body, was proven to have a direct channel out of the central nervous system. These meningeal vessels work in conjunction with the glymphatic system, a network that flushes cerebrospinal fluid through the brain tissue to clear neurotoxins, including proteins associated with neurodegenerative disorders.
The discovery has vast implications for the study and treatment of major neurological diseases. Researchers are now intensely investigating how damage or reduced function in this drainage system may contribute to the development and progression of diseases like Alzheimer's disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease. Understanding how to reinforce this natural cleaning system opens entirely new avenues for therapeutic interventions.

Your ego wants you to compete. Your bank account wants you to collaborate. 🎯

The fastest-growing businesses aren't built by lone wolves. They're built by people who aren't afraid to partner with someone who knows more.

👉 Collaboration isn't weakness. It's strategy.
Stop trying to do it all. Start building with people smarter than you.

Heard this statement today from a friend and it is so true!

Emotion governs structure
Structure governs function

Forget the cars, watches, and trophies. 🏆

True wealth is waking up without stress, surrounded by people who bring peace, not pressure.
Protect your body. Guard your energy. Build a tribe that fuels you, not drains you.

That’s legacy-level living.

What happens when your body is trying to tell you something—but no one listens?

On the latest episode of the It’s Your Story to Tell podcast, I sat down with Laura Alessio to talk about her journey through unexplained symptoms, medical dismissal, and finally, healing.

Laura’s story is powerful, but it’s also a mirror: How often do we ignore the whispers of our bodies until they turn into screams?

Mindfulness became a turning point in her healing—and it can be for you, too.

In this week’s blog, I break down the science and spiritual invitation of mindfulness—how it calms the nervous system, supports emotional regulation, and helps you reclaim agency over your body and story.

💡 If the dream is in you, it’s because the ability to achieve it is too.

You weren’t given a vision just to wish for it—you were given it because you already have what it takes to bring it to life.

💪 The skills, the mindset, the resilience—it’s all within you, waiting to be activated.

Stop doubting. Start doing. Your dream exists for a reason—make it happen. 🚀

Recent successes with the Fascial Counterstrain Astrocyte treatments;

*Lipoma on a woman’s mid back that her dermatologist couldn’t remove… she was referred to a surgeon and by the time she got to him, he couldn’t find it. It was gone in 2 weeks

*Cyst on a runner’s foot that her podiatrist said would have to be surgically removed and that nothing else would work… gone in a week!

*Lipoma on a woman’s arm since 2018 after breast surgery, gone in a week!

*Bony growth on my own finger, had been there for 2 years and distorted my own fingernail growth, disappeared in 2 weeks and the nail grew out normal! Looking for pics, I’ll update my post later

GUI Pi is cinnamon “skin” or bark. After a tree becomes over 15 years old, the medicine migrates to the bark. Our Gui Pi is from 30 year old mountain trees and is precious in every way. For that reason, we tincture (soak in 190 alcohol) for 2-4 months to extract ALL of the volition /essential oils that are often lost in boiling. The bark will still be added to the boil toward the end to begin its water extraction and melding with the rest of the formula. This beautiful tincture will be returned to the vat after cooling. The color…. Is just remarkable.
This is one of 7 jars that are about to become part of EBW.

Loving this! for 27 years, I did DEEP TISSUE.. the last two years I've been learning Fascial Counterstrain and realizing it doesn't have to be deep to be effective. In fact, it can be even more aggravating if you aren't at the correct depth for the tissue that needs to be addressed. My own body doesn't even like deep tissue anymore. Consider letting a talented therapist work at the depth your body will ALLOW rather than forcing something to cooperate that doesn't want to.

So true!
