- Brain Tissue Health
- Sleep Habits
- Memory
- Exercise Habits
- Human Movement

DAY 5
Stress reduction. 3.5.3 lungs breathing 4 times today.
3 seconds inhale… 5 seconds hold… 3 seconds exhale.
Stress Reduction
Dr. Shav, with his background as a holistic and integrative practitioner, has always maintained Stress Reduction as a key component of health and fitness. Research has proven that health, wellness and fitness programs often add to stress over diet and sleepless nights that lessen success.
Chronic stress can have lasting consequences for our physical and mental well-being. It produces mood swings. If you feel stressed about your job, your finances, or a relationship, you may find it difficult to focus on your sleep quality, eating or exercise habits. Basically, your three-month weight loss goal is going to have a tough time against that pint of ice cream or the drink you’ve been craving.
First, Dr Shav will coach you to find the time and creating the space to care for yourself that is the start of his stress reduction program. His plans then fill that
time and space to your advantage.
He may organize and support you to:
- Make your bed to start the day
- Stop “doing it all”
- Prioritize your tasks
- Break projects down to smaller tasks
- Add a breathing/meditation practice
- Eliminate doings things you dislike
- Reduce negative people in importance in your life
- Spend more time with family and friends
- Start a new hobby or sport
- Start a new exercise routine
- Create or join a community for new contacts and friends
What makes Dr Shav so special is that all aspects of his health coaching are designed to minimize stress for success.
DAY 6
Human movement.
Jog 15 feet, six times per day.
Healthy Lifestyle
Dr. Shav, as a board-certified foot and ankle surgeon, biomechanist, and human movement specialist, knows how to improve Stability, Support, Strength, Symmetry, and Balance. This enables you to live a lifestyle filled with more fun, less injury, and better performance for the rest of your life.
A Healthy Lifestyle (HL) is the foundation of Dr Shav’s nurturing coaching. A fit lifestyle improves sleep habits and brain health. It is a stress reducer and time manager. You will meet new people and create the positive support system we all need. You will become a more confident and independent you.
Decades ago, Dr Shav invented an exclusive algorithm called Foot Centering Biomechanics based on one’s stability, support, strength, symmetry, and balance needs and demands for standing, walking, and tasking efficiently and injury-free for a lifetime. His biomechanics starts from the ground up and includes the posture and brain function integratively and holistically.
After diagnosing your foot and body types, Dr Shav uses four main tools to develop and implement a surefire plan of lifestyle for you:
- Foot Centering Wedges
- Kinesiology Tape Applications
- Dynamic Foot Braces (beyond orthotics)
- Compensatory Threshold Training
