With the sun setting so early, it can be difficult to get outside during daylight hours. A quick jog or walk after work is a great way to get some fresh air, relieve stress, and move your body, but there are a few risks to be aware of and prepared for. With a little forethought, we can all continue to enjoy a nighttime stroll or jog safely.
As the seasons change, people talk about the weather and air. Whether it’s a hot, humid summer or cold, dry winter, we’re always told to stay informed on the effects the season may have on our body. Every season and air type impacts your health, and it’s especially important to know the consequences of dry air on your body during these cold winter months.
From time to time, we all find ourselves relaxing on the couch after dinner, too tired to clean up the kitchen. Or maybe you struggle with letting the dirty clothes pile up in the bedroom during a busy week. But having a clean home is scientifically proven to have health benefits.
There is a wealth of knowledge to be discovered about the daily vitamins and supplements many of us take. But what’s the difference between vitamins and supplements? Do they really make a difference in our health? Do vegetarians and vegans need to take supplements to replace a lack of nutrients? Read on to find out.
When the weather is warm, it’s easy and enjoyable to get outside for a walk, bike ride, jog, or pickup sports game. Unfortunately, that motivation to get outside can be hard to find on cold days filled with snow and rain. Don’t let the cold discourage you from getting outside!
People are becoming increasingly ill as the weather becomes colder and everyone spends more time indoors. If you find yourself feeling under the weather, you may be questioning if you have a common cold, the flu, or COVID-19. The symptoms of all three often look and feel similar, making it critical to understand the small deviations in symptoms, how each virus is spread, and how you can protect yourself.
Functional fitness, also called functional training or functional movement, is a type of strength-building exercise designed to make daily activities easier. By incorporating functional training into your exercise routine, you’re strengthening muscles for everyday activities, lowering the chance of injury, and improving your quality of life!
Being able to drive allows people of all ages the freedom to be active and independent. As we become older, our eyesight, body, and cognitive abilities change and can impact our ability to drive safely. Older Driver Safety Awareness Week serves as a reminder to assess how you or your loved ones drive and opens the door for an honest conversation about driving and aging.
With holiday feasts and New Year’s resolutions approaching, many of us will find ourselves bombarded with commercials for diets or pressure from our social circles to take on a new diet. Oftentimes, the promises new diets make are misleading at best and triggering at worst. If you’re tired of the same-old diet fads, you could benefit from intuitive eating.
With flu cases on the rise, it’s time to consider a flu immunization if you haven’t already. In honor of National Influenza Vaccination Week, we’ve gathered the basic information you need to know when considering this year’s flu shot.
