Real talk time: you know that if I tell you about a program, I believe in it 100%, right? And yes, I do get a few shekels in my purse if you attend this course – but that doesn’t change the fact that I truly stand behind it. Cool? Cool.
So with that said, if stress eating is stressing you out, my friend, podcast co-host, and business partner, Monica Reinagel, has a program for you. It is called “Overcoming Emotional Eating” and in it, she will show you how to finally break the emotional-eating cycle and step onto a path of greater self-awareness, self-mastery, and self-care.
The sessions are all online each Saturday in April (with replays available) and even though she’ll be digging deep into a rather heavy topic, I know that Monica will keep the sessions quick and light. Best of all, you will leave each meeting with a lot to think about, a few specific things to work on, and a confident smile.

Especially as we age, it is important to keep our shoulders durable and mobile. This video demonstrates a number of different exercises you can do with Resistance Bands, Dumbells, or household items to make sure you are able to wave your arms in the air (like you just don’t care?) now and for years to come.

Do these a few times per month and make sure you remember to get your arm above shoulder level on a daily basis and you will be raising the roof well into your golden years.
