If you guys haven’t already heard, Taranis is having a presentation next Thursday: “FEED YOUR GENES:EXPRESS YOUR HEALTH AND PERFORMANCE POTENTIAL” with Dr. J. It also sounds super interesting and it’s by donation.

Shooot July 18th is my birthday so I don’t think I can make it 🙁 . I would really love to hear the shoulder/back stability presentation. Double 🙁 . I’ll see what I can do.
Deanna/Cam – do you know if the presentation that Taranis is having is the same one that Dr. Adrian Raphael and Dr. Rick Baxter did for us awhile back? I believe that Rick was touring and presenting with Dr. Chestnut…so I wonder if it’s the same presentation?
Hi Krista,
James’ presentation will be far superior – it will be more up to date (we’ve been combing the literature lately), more holistic and of course, humbly but truthfully submitted, James is a uniquely talented and engaging speaker. The approach will be similar since we adhere to the same ideas, but it will definitely NOT feel like a repeat.
I hope to see you there.
Rick
Hi there would you mind letting me know which webhost you’re utilizing? I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot quicker then most. Can you recommend a good hosting provider at a reasonable price? Many thanks, I appreciate it!|
