Regular Exercise
Being physically active will reduce our risks of developing the nations number 1 and number 5 killers, heart disease and stroke.
American Heart Association recommendation for exercise is a pretty easy one to remember: thirty minutes, 5 times a week. Benefits are also seen if the thirty minutes is split up into 10-minute segments. This will improve overall cardiovascular health.
Remember activity counts such as gardening or walking the dog.
Something is better than nothing. No matter where you are, just start. Do not let an all or nothing mindset discourage you from beginning to being active

As a Holistic Health Coach, it is Erin’s big hairy audacious goal is to change the dialogue around how we look at weight loss. It is not a matter of being it Ketosis or Food Swaps but the feelings we have that we are avoiding by overeating. Why are so many of us not tackling the real issues we have? It is easier and safer to obsess over the latest diet fad. Whether it be with our job, or our Mom, boyfriend, politics… until we address how we manage our feelings in the world, we are not going to.
