Sometimes I need someone who drops everything to listen.  Sometimes I need to be that someone.

Physical Health

Eat Well

It's not about 'dieting' and reducing what you eat.  It's about paying attention and giving your body the food that it needs.

Be Active

Sage advice, my friends.  Figure out what you need to feel motivated to stay active.  Is it joining a group?  Is it cute workout gear?  Is it avoiding those ridiculously wrong 'calorie counters' on the machines?

Let's move!

So this workout is going to get a good sweat on.   This is a tabata + speed round.  You have 4 sections, with the first three being whole body and the last one focusing on abs.  Each section has 6 exercises.  First you'll go through them 20 seconds of work with 10 seconds of rest.  Then you'll go through the same exercises 30 seconds each, no rest.  Get your music on!

Social Health

Any green-eyed moments in your last few days?  Honestly, it's okay.  But maybe that's not going to help your relationship(s).  Think about the source of your jealousy and maybe we can help you deal with it. https://www.purewow.com/wellness/jealousy-in-relationships Posts from HealthyExpatParent.com/Facebook Happy Monday!

Or maybe don't share.  I won't tell. https://www.heprecipe.com/post/graham-crumbles New post: Qualities of a good friend are not hard to master. https://www.healthyexpatparent.com/single-post/2019/06/06/Skill-set-Friend Be your best, friends s
