Improving Health

I realized yesterday that it has been over two months since the successful completion of my half marathon, and I have yet to reflect on and share the final moments leading up to, during, and after the event itself!

Again, this reminds me of my continued goal to not only write in the moment, but to practice mindfulness in ALL aspects of life.

“Create a challenge for myself and stick to it.” That was my mantra going into 2014. I wanted to find something that would both challenge and inspire me.

In January, I completed my first challenge — the Spartan Race, which is a 5K obstacle challenge. It was exhilarating, challenging, and amazingly rewarding to cross the finish line.

To say I was hooked on this small achievement is an understatement.  

Rita Beckford, MD, a CareATC® physician, wellness consultant, and national keynote speaker, is making an impression on the lives she touches by personal experience. As she said with great passion, "we only are given one body, so make it count!"

Because of her personal journey, she has not only transformed her own life, she is now sharing her experience and formula by giving others the opportunity to change their lives.

What if I told you that you can increase your energy, burn calories and decrease stress in just 15 minutes per day, potentially without leaving your desk?

I know, it sounds too good to be true.  Many times we simply say "I just do not have the time," but the good news is that there is a better way. By sprinkling smaller workouts throughout your regular workday, you can get a quality workout while you're still at work.
