Anything that costs you your peace is too expensive.
Physical Health
What is energy? It’s not just sleeping well, getting through the day. And certainly, it’s not something you find at the bottom of a cup of coffee.

Be Active
I'm a morning exerciser, but I can see why that isn't always the most popular option. How do you give up the lure of your bed? Of course, the biggest take home from this article: the best time to workout is the time that works best for you.

Happy Monday! Did you ever wonder what your pet might say if they could speak? Or do you just make up the words for them because you know them so well? Yeah, me too. https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/interactive/2021/voices-dog-human-connection/

Your kids are on their screens a lot, especially if they have been distance learning. Probably, they are actually on task.

Body image is a complicated, multi-faceted THING. How do we help our kids gain a positive view of their outward self, while giving room for their growing understanding of what is 'beauty'...
