How a Vietnam Veteran Found Closure Reading His Letters to Home
Since 1776, America has only known 17 years of peace, being involved in some kind of global conflict for 228 of the last 245 years. This has resulted in countless thousands of veterans who served a long way from home and suffered after they came back. Don Eggspuehler knows all about this: A Marine combat pilot who served in Vietnam, Don kept the promise he made to his mother and consistently wrote letters home. Six years after he returned stateside, Don compiled those letters so his dying mother could read them again. That’s when he realized that they were written as much for him as her. Don has recently published that compilation in his latest book “Letters to Mom.” By re-reading his accounts of everyday life in boot camp, in-country, and in combat, Don was able to find some closure for the survivor’s guilt he’d been struggling with since returning home. He believes that this kind of closure is available to many more combat veterans. In fact, this kind of journaling has long been recognized to help reduce anxiety and improve mental health.

Why New Year’s Resolutions Don’t Work
Whether it's a vow to lose weight, quit smoking, save money, or attain other lofty goals, when the clock strikes midnight signaling the beginning of a new year, many people will have made resolutions. But despite having the best of intentions, clinical psychologist Stephen Sideroff claims that resolutions don't make it past the first few weeks. "New Year's resolutions often involve breaking out of long-standing patterns or habits," he says. "Unfortunately, people are generally uncomfortable with change." He adds that in order for people to make lasting changes, they have to learn to be comfortable with discomfort, and then to have a plan for staying focused on their goals. He has discovered a holistic methodology based on 9 key pillars to help you thrive, even in the midst of overwhelming discomfort and stress. He is an associate professor in the Departments of Psychiatry and Rheumatology at UCLA’s Geffen School of Medicine, and the author of "The 9 Pillars of Resilience: The Proven Path to Mastering Stress, Slow Aging and Increase Vitality."
