Physical Health
Eat Well
You THINK you are eating well and yet that number on the scale stubbornly refuses to budge. There's likely a valid - and easily changeable - reason why.
Be Active
You know you wanna', but sometimes it just doesn't happen. Even if you've missed a workout or three, do NOT give up on your fitness goals!

Spiritual Health
It's a sad truth that we have to have a job and work. Okay, some of us may love our jobs but ... still it would be nice to have more time for what we WANT to do versus what we HAVE to do. Striking a balance between the two is important.

Mental & Emotional Health
Don't even get me started with how our Sex Ed fails to actually teach what kids need to know (and when they need to know it). Or how they separate the boys and girls like Sex Ed is classified into genders. But this? Absolutely mental health is a key part of Sex Ed.
Social Health
Sometimes, our greatest social wins are gained through supporting those we love. If someone you care about suffers from anxiety, there are things you can do to help support them. If you suffer from anxiety, this might be just the link to share with your loved ones.

As parents, we want only what's best for our kids. That doesn't mean ignoring the flaws or personality quirks, or burying our heads in the sand when it comes to learning differences. We can help our kids really build upon their strengths, which can help them to get past other aspects that may otherwise be viewed as weaknesses.

What's for dinner? Chicken! This is an awesome chicken recipe. Not to toot my own horn or anything but this marinade is so very easy and the results are very good. We had the chicken on top of salad, but it would be good pretty much in any adaption Hope you try it!

As a parent, wouldn't we want more teachers like this one (ones who care, are invested and doing their best for our kids) versus those who are just biding their time, filling a role?
