Mind over Numbers for Weight Loss (guest post)

by

Calories In < Calories Out = Weight loss.  The formula seems simple enough and so for anyone who has undertaken a weight loss journey it starts here. We are ready to finally take control of our food habits. I was no different and spent years tallying every morsel and tracking the number on the scale to prove I was doing it right…until I realized that I wasn’t in control of the food; it was ...

Feeding on my love for pleasure (guest post).

by

We all know sex (which plays into family) and food bring about the most pleasure in life. But how else do we activate that "feel good" part of the brain? I'd much rather be strung out on a natural high than in the slumps so I guess the real question is how do we hold onto this feeling all day long? Exercise doesn't have to be grueling. Sure it's taxing on the body, but in the process you're ... Continue Reading

Today I got on my mat and practiced some yoga (guest post from my instructor).

by

  Today I got on my mat and practiced some yoga. I’ve been practicing yoga for about 16 years now and sometimes I wonder what keeps me coming back.  There are days when it’s tougher to get on to my mat than others.  I do know that I always feel so much better when I get on it, than not. It is said that your mat is a reflection, a way to look inside yourself. All you hold inside ... Continue Reading

The Time to Move Is Now (guest post).

by

  I always loved the idea of wild, primal play. Ironically, I've been waiting three years for someone to teach me how to do it. I was first bitten by the natural movement bug when I read a Men's Health article about MovNat, a program that emphasizes useful, natural movements and a connection to the outdoors. As soon as I finished that article, I dreamed of one day taking a workshop and ... Continue Reading

HOW and WHY to foam roll (guest post).

by

I needed this post. 99% of my friends in real life need this post.  I like to assume we all need this post as, even if we're rolling regularly now, reviews and reminding about proper form can never hurt...   There are three major components to a healthy fitness regime: A good diet, strength training and cardiovascular activity. Well, actually—there are four. Stretching is extremely ... Continue Reading
