Eat Well

Be Active
Jeffing might be the option you’re looking for if you’d like to make your walking more active. You do NOT need to just go running.
Let's move!
This timer has 4 circuits, each with 3 moves. You'll do each move 40 seconds, and repeat the circuit three times total. Ready? Start your music!

Mental & Emotional Health
Emotions have a way of taking over, rewriting logical responses. How about giving your emotions the space they are due, and then resetting?
Social Health
Certainly, no one goes into a relationship already considering the end. Sometimes, if you're in the middle of it, though, it can be hard to see clearly that maybe it IS time for the end.
Be your best, friends
