Life as a Voyage of Discovery
Part I: The Big Dream
David Yarian, Ph.D.
With curiosity, courage and a venturesome spirit, life becomes a
Voyage of Discovery as we chart a course through unknown
territory. The challenge of moving into the unknown on a sea-
journey may mean dealing with life-threatening storms as well as
periods of calm with no apparent forward movement. There may be
times of proceeding with great caution to avoid shoals and reefs
and other navigational hazards. Occasionally there is the
challenge of extricating oneself after making a navigational
error and running aground.

The Terrible Things You Say: Building Self-Esteem with Positive Self-Talk
David Yarian, Ph.D.
There are many subtle and persisting ways in which we undermine self-esteem. One common way is to make negative statements about ourselves. These negative self-statements serve as powerful limiting factors to our growth and development. Rather than trying to figure out why we say terrible things to ourselves, it is far more useful to - stop it! Editing negative self-statements is an effective way to build self-esteem.

Use Affirmations to Build Self-Esteem

Most of us have an internal dialogue going on inside our heads, commenting on our lives.

Seniors and Sexuality: Making Love for a Lifetime
David Yarian, Ph.D.
Myths and stereotypes about aging and sexuality would have us believe that sex is primarily for the young. Not so! Recent national survey data show that seniors are sexually active and interested. The reality is that experienced, mature and confident seniors can be better lovers, no longer struggling with youthful ignorance, anxiety and insecurities, career stresses and family responsibilities. There are aging-related physical and psychological changes as well as some medical conditions which do affect sexual functioning. Practical suggestions for dealing with these challenges encourage seniors to be playful, spontaneous, curious and experimental in their sexual relationships.
