Dr. Robin Smith
On the birthday of civil rights activist Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Dr. Robin challenges each and every one of us to give birth to a new sense of purpose, justice and peace. "True peace is not merely the absence of tension, it is the presence of justice," Dr. King once said. Dr. Robin urges us to adopt an attitude of peace as we start the new year.

"Go out and do something that you hadn't planned to do today—something that stretches you and grows you more, not just into a better human being but really grows you into the person that you were born to be," Dr. Robin says. "More thoughtful, more loving, more kind, more conscious, more human and more full of heart."
