I've never had writer's block, per se. There's always more that can be said. There are days that the ideas don't flow as freely, and the words hide from plain site. But those are the days that may be the most helpful. It's within the grey areas that all transformation takes place, and the most growth occurs. The "blocked days" are the foundation for where creativity grows.

The best thing about being a writer is that you got to tell your side of the story, in your own way, on your own terms. You own it. In the case of being a health writer, the best thing is seeing the thousands of people healing.

My advice for any inspiring writer is to go for it. In today's world it's easy to publish. One of the more difficult things about writing a book is its message. What is it that you want to say? What are you trying to tell people? After that you start writing down everything you know.

I'm just finishing another book on pain. It's more of a conversational tone, not research intensive like my first book. This one talks about what's working and what's not, and why most people would rather treat pain than to heal it. It's a cultural meme.

The inspiration to write is inside almost everyone. A large part of the reason people are in physical pain is because the want to be heard, but cannot. Pain is an expression of the total Self, that is unrecognized. So, everyone wants to be heard. The step toward writing is the big jump because it requires structure. I was inspired solely to help people.

I was in so much pain, almost dead at one point, then found a doctor that saved my life. I then began helping other people, so many, that I decided to write it down in the form of a book. It's now working all around the world.
