Breakfast of Champions

I know – I am REALLY old!  I walk at a slower pace, I type text on my phone with one finger,  and I still print out directions or tickets rather than trust my phone to pull them up when needed.   So I should not have been surprised when I recently realized the phrase “Breakfast

The Key to Habits – Makers or Breakers

Our dilemma is that we hate change and love it at the same time; what we really want is for things to remain the same but get better. Sidney J. Harris (famous US journalist 1917-1986) Ain’t that the truth! So, what’s so important about habits?  (today is my Health focus day so I’ll start there)

Losing Willpower – Not Your Fault

Hurray!  I always love finding someone or something else to blame.   So when I got an email from our supplier of 100% grass fed and pasture-raised meats that had a headline of “It’s Not Your Fault – Study Proves It” – I just had to read it.   They said that losing willpower is actually a

Mythbusting Cholesterol

  I heard it again in a conversation with friends – and it shows up in ads and health discussions.  And yes, I battled my M.D. over this in the last years before he retired (and I have now moved on to a more naturopathic clinic). And it is my own personal opinion this issue

When I share with folks that Dr. Wallach, founder of Youngevity, says everyone needs 90 “Essential Nutrients” going into their body every day – I have to define “Essential”.   In the health context, it means it is a nutrient required for proper functioning of your body — but your body cannot produce it.  It has

One of the player’s little sisters was on the sideline where all the younger siblings were enjoying games

A Trip Down Covid Lane

What a wonderful mountain retreat with my photoalbum buddies!  Working…sharing…teaching each other new methods and tips…laughing…learning.  Ooops, one had to go home early – she was not feeling well.  Sadly, the text comes back within 24 hours that the Covid test was positive.  We all lift her up in prayer. Finish the retreat and return

Put Me In Coach

Watching my granddaughter’s softball games (or any of my gkids playing sports) is awesome fun.  Seeing the amazing amount of enthusiasm and effort they put into it – PLUS, how did she learn that whole pitch routine and get her body to stretch and perform like that?  It’s a basic answer – she needed a

I Can’t Believe I Ate the Whole Thing!

OK – the official celebration of Christmas via stuffed turkeys and stuffed meal participants has now passed for most people.  Hopefully, the major focus of the celebration was on the birth of Christ.  But did you notice this verse? “An angel of the Lord suddenly appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying “Get up!

Energy – Can I Just Bottle Some?

OK – true confession – as a gaggle of little 3-year-olds race past me laughing and jumping, what is the first thought that comes to mind right after smiling at how cute they are?  Bet I am not the only one, too – I say inwardly, “Wow, could I just bottle some of that energy?”
