Are you looking for a new podcast? Or perhaps you’re looking to learn something on your commute, or while washing dishes, or while doing the laundry. If you’re into health, fitness, or wellness in general (you know, living The FRICKin Good Life), I’ve got 5 more episodes that you’re going to love. And bonus recommendations for my favorite health, life, and business related shows.
Read MoreHow much water should you drink each day? Will drinking more water help you lose weight? Will not drinking enough water make you age faster? How can I drink enough water each day?
This post answers these questions and more! Achieve your health and fitness goals by drinking the right amount of water.
Read MoreHere we are! As I promised you last week, this is my very first FRICKin Good Life book report. I made it especially for you. I hope you like it :)
When it comes to books like this in the health and wellness space, my general recommendation is to take everything with a grain of salt. The authors who write books like these are passionate about their topics, and often come across as preaching “one right way” to do things. As a wellness professional myself, I know that there is no one “right way” or “one size fits all.” Whether its nutrient workouts, supplements, or the birth control pill.
Read MoreWhen I got my first smartphone I promised myself that I would not become anti-social or addicted.
I remember when BlackBerrys (CrackBerrys) first came out. I was not a fan. I didn’t love how everyone I knew that had one was always on their phone. The lack of interaction irritated me, and I was totally anti-smart phone.
I know, right?
Believe it or not, but my family literally got together one Christmas and bought me my first iPhone. They had all jumped on the bandwagon, and I was the only one left behind. Guys, this was Christmas 2012 and I got a 4s. It made sense because my family lived all over the world, lieterally (at the time the five of us were spread between US, Belgium, and Nicaragua) and with the iPhone we could easily message and FaceTime.
Read MoreI’m sickened. Seriously. I’m ill about this. It’s been on my mind constantly for the last two months, and now this?
First, while my 1-year wedding anniversary had me reflecting on all the great parts of the wedding and marriage planning process, I couldn’t help but remember how horrible my dress shopping experience was. So I posted about it. I wrote about how I wanted to reach back a year and a half ago and remind myself that you can’t see “health” with a look up and down. Health consists more than the number on the scale or the size of your pants.
Read MoreIs there anything worse than getting a card with nothing but a signature inside? Not to someone whose love language is words of affirmation.
How would you feel if someone sent you flowers because they flaked on you… again? If your love language is gifts, you’d probably appreciate the thought. But, if your love language is quality time, you might just wonder if that person is trying to buy your affection.
So what exactly is a love language? Well, the ones I’m talking about are “the 5” of the The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman. In his book he explains how different people not only experience but express love. While the original book is really aimed at couples, love languages can be used in any and every relationship. Yes, even at work.
The Languages are:
Words of Affirmation (words)
Quality Time (time)
Physical Touch (touch)
Acts of Service (service)
Gifts
