In this segment of Inner Voice - Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan on KMET 1490 AM / ABC News Radio (I love you ME ), Dr. Foojan Zeine talks to Dr. Andrea Pennington, the author of I love you ME, filled with life lessons and amazing exercises.   Dr. Foojan talks about  A study about how narcissism changes in the span of life.  www.foojan.com

It might sound too good to be true, but there are tools waiting within all of us, that can improve everything from depression to addiction, anxiety, discontent, or numerous other unbeneficial feelings or states of dis-ease. We just have to open ourselves up to them and be willing to dig deeper. Tapping into creativity and passion is one key component; another is slowing down and taking the time to meditate, reflect, and practice self-care. So many of these tools are at our disposal, any time of day, any day of the week—but we have to realize their potential and prioritize their practice before the magic can happen.

This week on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m joined by Dr. Andrea Pennington to talk about how we can begin this process, and so much more. Dr. Pennington is an integrative physician, acupuncturist, meditation teacher, and #1 international bestselling author.
