The Tree of Life (Shajarat-al-Hayat) in Bahrain is approx. 400 years old, 32 feet (9.75 meter) high. Tree located two kilometers (1.2 miles) from Jebel Dukhan. This Tree stands on Top of a 25-foot (7.6-meter) high Sandy Hill. What makes this 400-year-old Tree so amazing is the fact that it stands alone in a Barren Desert at the Highest Point in Bahrain, in an area that is completely Free of Water. Where nothing else will grow, this Tree seems to radiate with Life. Local inhabitants believe that it stands in the actual location of the Garden of Eden.

Many people have a working knowledge of social media but don’t truly understand what a powerful tool it can be when it comes to boosting your business’s reputation. This is especially true when it comes to the medical profession. Because people in the medical profession are faced with the added challenge of helping other humans in a profound way, they have the added responsibility of educating and empowering their patients while increasing their own online exposure at the same time. Social media can make all of the difference.
