YOUR HEALTH I have been an advocate of selfcare long before it was popular. I was forced into it by having much of my health taken away from me at a young age. Like many things, I believe the pendulum as swung too far over now, and people are becoming selfish in the name […]

YOUR HEALTH If you follow me, you have heard this before, but it is worth repeating. We are entering the last few months of the years, and that means holidays galore! Our mindset now will decide whether we maintain our weight or gain extra pounds. I follow what I call the 80/20 rule. […]

YOUR HEALTH As I was huffing and puffing the other day teaching fitness classes, I was reminded once again of the importance of intensity.

Your brokenness, hurts, wounds, disappointments, frustrations or low self-image begin in your heart. Your heart then leads you to either live a well-balanced, healthy life full of good nutrition, proper exercise and adequate exercise or it […]

YOUR HEALTH Winter’s chill often makes our joints ache a bit more, especially the older we get. If you were an athlete and very active in your youth like me, you might have some old injuries that tell you when the weather is about to change! Our joints need attention, just like our muscles. In […]
