Eating well…

Keeps us well, it’s as simple as that. We do tend to pick the stuff that tastes good, over the stuff that is good for us. Why? Because the folks that make “food” know this, and they use every “tool in their bag” to make their product tastes the best, so we choose it…and buy… Read more »

What’s your “ripple effect”?

And we’re no talking the ripple effect on water…but it contains the same concept. The “ripple effect” is a term used in Sociology, and can be observed how social interactions can affect situations not directly related to the initial interaction.

What Matters

We have talked about and gave examples of how to get and keep “Balance” in your life. However, for many of us, the sticking point on creating “Balance” (or time for ourselves) is our belief that we will hurt others feelings as people count on us. Yes, people count on us, and it is for… Read more »
