For the past few months, I have been busy filming a documentary on health called “Vitality“. Working with Sacred Mysteries Productions, we have been traveling around the country speaking with the leading experts in various health/wellness fields. The point of the movie- all the debate in Washington has been about Health Finance Reform- not health reform. We are setting out to define what true health and wellness really are. Vitality is about a way of life, a feeling of richness, abundance, and meaning. Our guests speak about a broad range of topics ranging from the country’s over-reliance on drugs, the insurance industry, lack of meaning in life, and basic preventative measures.
I have personally met with each guest (so far- we’re still filming…) and can only say that I am VERY proud of what this movie is and what message it carries. Here is the list of guests in the movie:
Bruce Lipton, PhD – Author- “The Biology of Belief”
