Getting Healthy

This week has been a lot more difficult than the previous ones.  For one thing, I was working this past weekend in Seattle, so Sunday was kind of a bust, exercise-wise.  I relaxed and rejuvenated with a massage that day though, so I started the weekend off strong on the wellness scale. The Good: – [...]

Hello again! Let me start out by apologizing for last week–I totally fell off the earth! My posting day was actually on Christmas, and it slipped my mind…and continued to slip my mind until I remembered THIS week’s post. Yikes. A bulleted list, to sort out all the little points that would make for the [...]

You know those people who are addicted to helping? Who will go out of their way to solve other people’s problems, but won’t touch their own? I think I’m one of them. In my everyday life I try to help people solve their health problems by telling them about the healthy living tools that I’ve [...]

I have an issue with schedules. Deadlines and due-dates are a game of avoidance. I don’t know exactly when I became that way, but I did, and now I am dealing with it. It’s made college fun, I guess. Anyways, this week has been one of working out! I’ve made an effort to actually do [...]

This week: No guilt. None. Just facts. School: I had a pretty short week, as far as finals go, and it wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected. Was it easy? No. Not in the least. But it was merciful. Monday was the worst and I froze during my Art History final, which means I’ll [...]

{Routine Update: I’m changing my goals after hearing about how stretching in the morning can do more damage than good. I’ll update you next week- but the Miracle Ball Method is working!!! I’m not in nearly as much pain as I have been, and I’m a much happier camper.} The past week I’ve been battling [...]

I am so far off the wagon that the wagon has not only disappeared around the corner but is now trundling off to Sydney. Somehow in the past two weeks I’ve forgotten how to eat three square meals. Lunch has been the most neglected meal. I have been eating either Weet-bix or a banana, or [...]
