Hello and Happy New Year, I am Doug Durham RN.  This is my first blog for Snellville Patch.com, and I am very excited about being part of the blogging team. My wife and I have lived in Gwinnett for 30 years and have two children in college. 

What can you expect from me? Well, I have been a registered nurse for more than twenty years, so there is bound to be some medical information blogs occassionally. You know... heart, GI, respiratory and all those body parts.

However, as an RN my specialty for the last 18 years has been behavioral health. So, I will be writing some on mental wellness too. Topics like dealing with depression, decreasing stress, developing organization skills should be expected over the coming months.  

For the last two years I have been a life coach, coaching people on achieving wellness in the body, mind and spirit. I have a company named Wellness Matters for Life. I love coaching and I am going to love writing for Patch.

My father-in-law once said, "Do what you love and you'll never work another day in your life."  I'm livin' life to the full and you can too!  I will be writing to you soon.

Life Coach Doug
