I’ll make this month’s article short and to the point. As I reflected on the times when I was in the 9-5 workforce, I was thinking about what I did for myself. My outlet was learning new things. I have spent countless hours and funds on my personal development. I used to be very hard on myself for not putting what I learned into practice (for pay). I realized that everything I … [Read more...] about Time For Self-Care

"It is time to classify biological aging as a disease. And with the classification, it enables us to target and treat aging rather than aging becoming unavoidable"

I am a troublemaker. Self-appointed, sometimes a committee of one, born and bred to pursue my craft as a troublemaker. Now, wait, before you assume that I am a person who incites or participates in social unrest, I am not that woman. Still, I will admit to inciting and encouraging seniors to make (as a worker for justice once said ) “good trouble.” The trouble of a good kind … [Read more...] about Zooming Along Together!

Never in the history of humankind have we had an emergency need to lower blood sugar. The chronic high levels of blood sugar create an epidemic of diabetes and obesity, which lead to other health problems like high blood pressure, high triglycerides, insulin resistance, and insomnia. I've been a proponent of eating low carb for many years. I have an excellent understanding … [Read more...] about Why is Blood Sugar Regulation Critical to Weight Loss?

As a pharmacist who knows the "drug store business" inside out and upside down (I started working in my father's drug store at age ten), I can tell you that the pharmaceutical industry pretty much controls the world's health, and that's not a compliment. "Our prescription drugs are the third leading cause of death after heart … [Read more...] about The Anti-Aging Pill Science Ignores,  But Why?

The pundits’ voices played as white noise in the background—until one of them said she’d left Christianity because people claiming to be Christian didn’t behave as she thought they should. She didn’t give specifics as to what she meant, but it stung, partially because she had a point—but only partially. I asked God’s forgiveness for myself and others who either don’t … [Read more...] about It’s Your Fault I’m No Longer A Christian!

If your family likes chicken soup and you are tired of the canned watery variety that has perhaps six tiny pieces of chicken, give Costco chicken soup a try. It has carrots,  celery, and plenty of chunks of chicken and it's tasty. Also, their chicken pot pie is sold seasonally. My only complaint is that it contains too much chicken and there isn't enough sauce or gravy. It's … [Read more...] about Stuff I Use And Like

Back and forth I went about how to address this topic because I knew it might pour salt into some wounds, as it has with my own. First, I ordered the book pictured here because of something I’d heard about John G. Lake’s wife. Almost from page one, I found myself receiving (necessary) Holy Spirit convictions as I read about documented restorations of health, limbs, and … [Read more...] about Do You Have IT or Does IT Have You?

I’ve been gypped!” I exclaimed as I ran through my mail and pulled the glossy and unfamiliar publication claiming itself to be an issue of Grit. Less than two weeks ago I was standing in the main hallway of our 55+ Independent Senior Living building. A couple of women, sitting in the uncomfortable chairs designated for those waiting on taxis, food deliveries and Metro … [Read more...] about Grit And Grace In A Slick New World

I hear from many women who say they just can’t lose weight no matter how little they eat or how much they workout. (Sorry men, this article will be directed to the ladies…it’s nothing personal.) Everyone is looking for the magic bullet to weight loss and more importantly, keeping it off! We’ve all been told about calories in calories out. The less we eat the more we’ll lose. … [Read more...] about Can’t Lose weight? 4 Reasons Why You May Be Stuck
