Join Me in Celebrating the Enduring Spirit of Wilbur Hot Springs
Dear Friends,
As many of you know, The Nature Preserve & Health Sanctuary I created at Wilbur Hot Springs in 1972 holds a special place in my heart. For 48 years, I had the privilege of serving as Wilbur's owner and chief caretaker. During that time, I was also the creator and chief clinician of the internationally acclaimed Cokenders Alcohol Program, part of which took place at this extraordinary sanctuary. Although Wilbur is now under new, capable stewardship, I remain here as a lifelong resident and Senior Steward Advisor.
If you visit Wilbur, you may find me enjoying a soak next to the Fountain of Life geyser, reflecting on the countless memories and experiences that have shaped my life and work. It's in these moments that I'm reminded of the deep connection between the ethos of Wilbur and the topics we explore on my weekly program.
Just as Wilbur provides a sanctuary for healing, growth, and self-discovery, Mind Body Health and Politics offers a forum for engaging with the critical issues that shape our lives and our world. Each week, we delve into fascinating discussions with prominent national authorities, scientists, and best-selling authors, exploring the complex interplay between our mental, physical, and societal well-being.
If you're a part of the Wilbur community, I invite you to join me for a soak in the nature preserve - by the Fountain of Life geyser – in celebrating the enduring spirit of this incredible place. Share your favorite memory of Wilbur in the comments below, and if you haven't already, subscribe to Mind Body Health and Politics to continue our journey of discovery and growth together.
And if you ever find yourself at Wilbur, please come over, say hello, and maybe even join me in a song. Together, we can continue to nurture the mind, body, and spirit, just as Wilbur has done for so many of us over the years.
Golden light,
Dr. Richard L. Miller
