YOUR HEALTH By now, most health clubs and gyms have opened up to some degree, allowing folks to get back on their exercise track. I thought this would be the perfect time to remind you how to get the most out of the time you spend working out. You see, 85 percent of people do […]

YOUR HEALTH I had to laugh as I watched a video on Facebook about a couple in quarantine, and he opens up the frig to say, “I haven’t eaten in like 10 minutes – I’m starved!” Oh my how true this is for many of us. Stress eating sneaks in on us, and before we […]
