Today and Everyday
No, I am not talking that time sensitive baby craving urge women experience. Rather, I’m talking about that internal clock we all have. Today, we celebrate National Biological Clock Day for one reason – our health. Men and women alike have a daily biological clock. Formally known as our circadian rhythm, our biological clock is […]
Just the other day, I was visiting with a friend and we both commented about how much less we are moving in a day now that so many of us are working at home. We use to easily rack up 10,000+ steps in a day, now we are lucky if we get 6,000! We are […]
The holidays are upon us and our already crazy lives are going to get just a bit crazier! Between the end of the semester, keeping quarantined students current, kids, household chores, shopping, planning, cooking and everything else, it is hard to take a breath. That’s why creating and sticking to a regular routine is more […]

If you are looking for me this Fall, I am probably at a soccer game cheering on one of my boys, so it seems fitting that my next group has a bit of a Fall sports theme. I mean, why not? We can score goals, set up plays, make great passes, and celebrate our victories […]
Have you heard the saying, “Sitting is the New Smoking?” Well, it is. The phrase was crafted by Dr. James Levine, a professor of medicine at Mayo Clinic. Basically, any kind of extended sitting – at your desk, in the car, in front of the TV – can be harmful to your health. And, we all […]
Every time our teenage son comes home from practice, I can’t even stand next to him with his “fresh from the field” aroma. Somedays, it makes my eyes water. That smell not only permeates the room, it permeates his clothes as well. In our house, it is not only our boys with stinky clothes – […]
