Did you squint to read this headline or sentence? When was the last time you ran on a treadmill or swam a few laps in a pool?
Yes. We all know the feeling. Our eyes begin to puff up – we sneeze, and all of sudden we are in the middle of a full blown allergy flare up.
We know that food can be used to influence our overall health, and even increase the health and function of our eyes.
We look to nutrition as an important factor in our overall health. We each have rituals and practices around the way that we eat and the foods that we choose to eat in order to support our body as a whole and maintain energy throughout the day.
Sleep is one of the most important aspects of our lives. It allows us to grow and re-energize, strengthening us for the days to come.
Happy Monday everyone! Did anyone else’s three day weekend include putting miles on their running shoes with their work family?
Can’t stop won’t stop! The Kaua’i cup may be over but the fitness will continue.
