Getting More Steps In Daily
Do you know how many steps you walk in a day? It might not be as many as you thought. New studies show that people who average 5,000 steps or less a day are considered sedentary.

Going forward, think of movement as part of your self-care View Post

Are You Truly Living?
When you think of living, what comes to mind? Existing? Thriving? Just getting through the day? I'm in the middle of a Bible Study on the book of Amos, and four little words have deeply stuck with me. I have pondered, analyzed, and prayed over these words to ensure I am truly living. It first shows up in Amos 5:4 "Seek me and live." then again in Amos 5:6 to ensure we hear these words View Post

When I heard the term "slugging" in skincare, I thought, what the heck? It turns out it's a thing. Kind of a crazy word, but I love the concept. It turns out "slugging" has been around for decades. Think of your grandmother slathering vaseline on her face at night. Yep, that was slugging. Also, the practice has been used in other countries for generations. Thanks to the internet, we have View Post
