As the human race continues to deal with unrest on a multitude of levels, the PrescriptShens crew decided we should unpack how these unprecedented times are affecting the youth.

As we shared our experiences, we wish for all ..read more

In the midst of quarantine, the PrescriptShens crew took to zoom for its first ever virtual podcast discussion to tackle the idea of connection & our future social paradigm.

The Prescriptshens crew took on the topic of interpersonal and environmental generosity in order to bring awareness to a cycle of reciprocity that can both nourish ourselves along with the world around us. As we have spoke on in the past, humans are a microcosm to the large universe around us, therefore in showing gratitude and compassion to our habitat we inevitably receive that back in an exponential manner. This truth holds water for the case in which we as humans learn to come from a place of generosity towards one another that bolsters the global community in way that allows us to see val ..read more

Relationships play such a pivotal role in our lives, that at times we might need an elevated perspective to truly account for the complexities at hand. These relationships come in all forms, both intra- and inter- personal, ranging from familial, romantic, intimate, societal, business, environmental, and of course humanistic universality. In navigating relationships, we learn about the world within and outside of ourselves. This is an opportunity to bring those two worlds into balance, but as we all know, life isn't always easy within those relationships. As a result, processing, integration ..read more
