You make your exercise a priority in your life, right? But sometimes life gets in the way. The office meeting goes late. You have to chauffeur the kids around town.

What a hectic day. The boss was being a real bear. You and your spouse had a mini-fight on the phone. You got a flat tire. And now that you’re home, the first thing you do is head for ice cream and cookies to make yourself feel better.
Let me guess – you have at least one nagging bad habit that you’re finding difficult to break. Maybe it’s having a can of soda with your lunch. Or perhaps you just have to add cream and sugar to your morning coffee. Or perhaps your “couch potato” habit is getting the best of you. Look, […]
“Eat a balanced diet.” You’ve heard that one before plenty of times, right? You’ve probably even heard me say it. That’s because it’s true – eating a balanced diet is one of the keys to good health.
If you’ve spent any time reading about good nutrition, then I don’t have to tell you how important it is to eat a clean diet consisting of a good balance of carbohydrates, fats and protein. But what does that mean, really? And WHY is it so important? Read on for answers to these questions…
Do you hear voices in your head?No, I’m not talking about the kind that make the men in white coats come and take you away. I’m talking about that inner dialogue that we all have running through our heads. Even if you’re not aware of it, your own inner dialogue is playing in your head […]
