The Hidden Price of Being Healthy


What I am also going to point out is the not-so-obvious cost of not being healthy. But, as you know, nothing in life is free.

Here is a continuation of the light and darkness metaphor: a bucket of water. The bucket represents you.

What is the Cause?


The question most people think they need an answer to is what is the cause of their this or that? Many people pay it lip service, but what is cause really?

It is not just one hole that causes a symptom or disease to be expressed.

Creating Your Target of Health


Creating Your Target is easy. What I use to help create these targets is what I call SMARTS targets SMARTS stands for: Simple, Sensory, and Specific Measurable and Meaningful As If Now Realistic Time Framed Smiley Factor Some more about what these all mean: "S": Simple is exactly that.

Glorious Summer Greens


Summer brings a lot of fantastic things with it, but one of the healthiest for those of us in the colder climates is more fresh food. The growing season has started and is shifting into full gear.

Summer Sun Cures


With summer comes more sun and with more sun comes an extra desire to be outdoors and with spending additional time outdoors comes ? you guessed it, sunburn. We all know the major importance of using sunscreen these days.
