YOUR HEALTH I have a confession to make. Somewhere along the line, food has become way more important than it should be. I think it all began when we moved to Texas. My friend Harvey Dickerson was right when he had concerns about two mountain-loving people moving to the flat lands. Living […]

YOUR HEALTH During a visit with dear friend, Jane Gordon, she shared with me a way she calms her spirit when sleep will not come. She will visualize the worry or concern as a tennis ball, and she will take her hand and swat that ball back to God. She’s had to warn […]

YOUR HEALTH As you may or may not know, I teach yoga a couple times a week. I tell students we will stretch, strengthen, and stabilize every class.
