Propaganda is legal! This took place at the 2014 Free State Project’s Liberty Forum.

Dr. Mari Swingle is a board certified neurotherapist with extensive experience in the worlds of education and clinical psychology. In 1997 she founded the Swingle Clinic in Vancouver, British Columbia – a state of art psychoneurophysiological clinic dedicated to a biological approach to healing neurological and brain disorders including ADHD, depression, addictions, PTSD, stroke, brain injury and many others. Her clinic also works with brain optimization techniques for persons seeking to enhance their mental and learning skills. A substantial amount of her practice has dealt with children struggling with learning and behavioral problems.

The loving care, informed by …
Has anyone else been feeling a little bit of Olympic-driven shame over the past week and a half?
