Dr. Oliva’s expertise runs deep. With his down-to-earth sensibilities and his caring voice, I always come away with a strong sense of direction for my physical, mental and spiritual health. But it’s his clear interpretation of the scientific research that helps me most.

​

Invite Dr. Oliva into your life. You will be better for it.

I have been a fan of Dr. Robert Oliva’s blog Transform Your Life for some time. His most recent post “Survivor’s Guide to Reducing Stress during the Coronavirus Pandemic” is especially timely.

​

I am impressed by the broad scope of his articles. The most recent one includes seven different topics: exercise, experiencing nature, meditation, relaxation, diet, relationships, and sleep. Another virtue is the inclusion of links that make searching for additional information extremely easy.

He gives us the tools and therapeutic practices to empower our minds and bodies, and to heal us as human beings living in an interconnected world. Dr. Oliva wants his readers to thrive physically, mentally, and spiritually.
