Dr. Brett’s Corner™ | Learning to Let Go of Resentment | Dr. Brett S. Hirsch, D.O.
In this week’s Dr. Brett’s Corner™, Dr. Hirsch shares his perspective on letting go of resentment — not because what happened was okay, and not because we have to forget it, but because sometimes holding onto it hurts us more than anyone else. Read this week’s Dr. Brett’s Corner™ and try the simple 3-minute release practice included in the article. “Sometimes letting go isn’t something we do for the person who hurt us. It’s something we do for ourselves.” — Dr. Brett Hirsch

Dr. Brett’s Corner™ | Finding Peace During Troubled Times | Dr. Brett S. Hirsch, D.O.
We can’t always control the news, other people’s behavior, or what tomorrow may bring. But we *can* choose where we place our attention, how we respond, and what we allow to take up space within us. In this week’s Dr. Brett’s Corner™, Dr. Hirsch shares a physician’s perspective on protecting your peace and the simple practices he uses in his own life to stay grounded when the world feels heavy. Sometimes it starts with something as simple as one breath, one quiet moment, and one choice to focus on what you *can* control. Peace doesn’t require the world around you to be peaceful. It simply requires YOU to be peaceful.

Dr. Brett’s Corner™ | Learning To Slow Down: Dr. Brett S. Hirsch, D.O.
What if doing less sometimes helped you live more? We live in a world that celebrates being busy. But constantly rushing from one thing to the next can leave very little room for the things that matter most. Slowing down doesn’t mean giving up or accomplishing less. Sometimes it simply means becoming more intentional about where we place our time, energy, and attention. Take the extra breath. Enjoy your morning coffee. Put the phone down. Notice what’s around you. Give yourself permission to simply be present. Small pauses can make a big difference. In this week’s Dr. Brett’s Corner, I’m sharing a reminder I think many of us need from time to time: Slowing down isn’t giving up. It’s choosing what matters most.

And it's as close as your next breath. Your breath is more than a function for life. It's a powerful way to influence your body, mind, and emotions.

Dr. Brett’s Corner™ | Why Kindness May Be One of the Most Powerful Prescriptions We Have | Dr. Brett S. Hirsch, D.O.
One habit I've developed over the years has nothing to do with medicine. From time to time, I'll quietly buy someone a coffee. Leave a larger tip than expected. Or give a small gift to someone I've never met. Someone once asked me why I do it. My answer was simple. Why not? The truth is, we rarely know what another person is carrying. A smile. A compliment. Holding the the door. Paying for someone's meal. A handwritten note. Sometimes the smallest gesture can change the direction of someone's entire day.

Dr. Brett's Corner™ | Why Gratitude Is One of the Healthiest Habits I Practice | Dr. Brett S. Hirsch, D.O.
Every morning, before my feet ever touch the floor, I pause and think of 5 things to be grateful for. Some mornings they are big things, my family, my health, my opportunity to care for patients. Other mornings they're simple - a sunrise, a good cup of coffee, or another chance to make a difference. That small habit has become one of the most important parts of my day.

Dr. Brett's Corner™ | Why I Start Each Morning with Five Quiet Minutes | Dr. Brett S. Hirsch, D.O.
Before the world gets loud, I give myself 5 minutes of calm. One of the ways I do that is my listening to "Marconi Union." In a well-known laboratory, participants listening to "Weightless" expressed substantially lower anxiety and psychological stress measures compared with baseline. That peaceful start helps me show up as a better physician, a better father, and a better human being. It's such a simple, natural tool that I often encourage my patients to try it as part of their daily stress management routine.

✨2 | Dr. Brett’s Corner™ | Why I Prescribe Meditation to My Patients
Dr. Brett's Corner™ | Why I Prescribe Meditation to My Patients | Dr. Brett S. Hirsch, D.O.
Most people are surprised when I recommend meditation during a medical visit. They expect us to discuss medications, nutrition, exercise, lab work or the latest advancement in healthy aging. Those conversations are important, and they remain a central part of what I do. But over three decades in medicine, I've come to appreciate something just as important. Health isn't only about caring for the body. It's also about caring for the mind.

✨1 Introduction | Why I Started Dr. Brett's Corner | Healthy Aging
Dr. Brett's Corner™ | Why I Am Writing This | Dr. Brett S Hirsch, D.O.
There comes a point in every physician's career when you realize the prescriptions you write are only part of the story. Over the years, I've had the privilege of caring for thousands of patients. I've celebrated victories with them, walked beside them through difficult diagnoses, and watched many discover that true health is about much more than numbers on a chart. Medicine matters. Science matters. Healthy habits matter. But I've also learned that the conversations patients remember most often happen after the exam is over. They begin with questions like: "How do I feel better?", "How do I age well?", "How do I find balance?" Those conversations inspired Dr. Brett's Corner™.
