YOUR HEALTH Depending upon how happy your holidays were, you may be feeling sluggish and fatigued. Even if you were good, January is a great month to get serious about your flexibility.

YOUR HEALTH We recently saw the Tom Hanks movie, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, and it reminded me of the importance of emotional health.

YOUR HEALTH Happy Easter! In honor of this holiday, I thought I would share some EGGcelent information about the good ol’ egg! Every once in a while, eggs get a bad rap, but science has proven time and again how beneficial eggs are in our diet. First, they are a superb source of simple, lean […]

YOUR HEALTH Most people have already given up on their New Year’s resolutions. Whether you call them resolutions or goals, you set yourself up to fail if you do not know the why behind them. For such a small word, “why” has a big punch. It can be the difference between huge success […]
