Becoming “Soul-Centered”: Week 1 – Awareness: Be Here Now

So here we are. Week 1. The focus this week is ‘awareness’ and the seemingly lost art of living in the present moment.

Becoming “Soul-Centered”

It’s Sunday. As I enjoy my morning pot of coffee I open my Kindle, wondering what my next read will be. A few weeks ago I finished ‘Eat Pray Love’ (for the umpteenth time!) which has once again fired me up to put myself a little higher on my priority list. It also reminds meContinue reading “Becoming “Soul-Centered””

And, like a typical kid, I also stayedContinue reading “Roasted Brussels Sprouts & Carrots”

I was recently asked about the relationship between muscle strength and bone density. I confessed that I knew there was a direct correlation, but that I wasn’t sure of the intricacies of such a relationship. And I will admit to you that I was irritated with myself at not knowing the answer. So, true toContinue reading “Muscle Strength and Bone Density”

Butternut Squash Chili

The Fall Season brings bright colors, crisp temperatures, football . . . and a host of veggies that I really don’t know what to do with. One of my nutrition goals is to try new fruits and vegetables that I didn’t eat growing up or that I didn’t enjoy, as well as to spruce upContinue reading “Butternut Squash Chili”

The Darin Olien Show: Working Out for Personal Growth with Sal Di Stefano

Let me begin by saying that even if you’re not a fan of podcasts, at least listen to this one episode. I’ve listened to it three times.
