Our chiropractor, Dr. Dwyer Scott at Advanced Medical Solutions, has been holding monthly health workshops. We’ve attended the last two, and both times the room has been full of people willing to give up a Saturday morning to learn more about taking care of their health. I always go with notepad and pen in hand…
Twenty years ago, a friend and I set off in search of alkaline water convinced it was something we needed for better health. There was only one problem: neither of us had stopped to ask what we actually wanted it to do. I still love trying new things, but today there’s one question I try to ask first.
We thought giving up sugar for a week would mostly mean skipping dessert. Then we started reading labels. Our sugar-free week quickly became a “lot less sugar” week—and taught us something more useful than perfection ever could.
Sometimes we don’t realize how good our everyday habits make us feel until we leave them behind. A few days outside my normal routine reminded me just how clearly the body communicates when we finally learn to listen.
If there was an exercise trend over the last forty years, chances are I tried it. From Jane Fonda and step aerobics to yoga, Pilates, golf, tennis and more, most of them eventually faded away. What survived wasn’t the most popular workout. It was the one that fit my life. Here’s what four decades of exercise taught me about finding movement that lasts.
The best exercise isn’t the one everyone is talking about. It’s the one you’ll still be doing years from now. A practical look at sustainable movement in the second half of life.
Strength in the second half of life is about far more than appearance. It supports mobility, balance, resilience, and independence — often determining how fully we continue participating in life as we age.
Circulation is one of those systems we rarely think about until something doesn’t feel right. But behind the scenes, its constantly delivering oxygen, nutrients, and support throughout the body. In this article, we explore how red-light therapy may help support circulation and recovery — and why this technology has evolved far beyond its original “beauty device” reputation.
Most decline begins quietly while we’re busy living. The body often whispers long before it screams — but many of us spend years trying to silence the signals instead of listening to them.
We have more access to our personal health data than ever before—wearables, body scans, even blood testing from home. But more data hasn’t made things clearer. If anything, it’s made them more confusing. This is what I’m starting to notice—and why something still feels missing.
