The Aware Life Blueprint

I enjoy a little Pokemon Go as much as the next person, but don't let it ruin your neck! Migraines and other pain are not a good trade off for that rare Pokemon!

L'artiste bien connu Pawel Kuczynski vient tout juste de publier cette image intitulée "contrôle". Exagération ? Réalité ? Chacun sera libre d'en juger. Une chose est certaine, le phénomène ne laisse personne vraiment indifférent et les artistes s'en donnent à cœur joie.

Pawel Kuczynski s'était déjà fait remarquer à plusieurs reprises par ses nombreuses illustrations satiriques et sans commentaire. Nous en avions fait un article en 2015.

This doesn't come as a surprise... but I can't help but wonder what the driving forces for this change actually are. It's easy to say that it's because we've become a lazy society. However, I can't help but wonder if our economy has more to do with it. Comparing 1986 to now, I can't help but assume there are less stay at home parents because less and less households can afford to do that, especially in the GTA.

Regardless of the cause, we all need to work to move our bodies more, and that includes our children. Kids movement affects how their bodies grow and mature.

Lack of exercise for children at the beginning of the day may impact their learning

Happy International Women's Day!
Most of what I teach was taught to me by some pretty incredible women, and I am forever grateful!

Women belong at the management table, in the science lab, or running large tech and engineering firms. We also need to value work done in the home, in raising families

Yesterday after the WOD at CrossFit Leviathan, I shared my balls, Roll Model® Method Therapy balls, with some of my fellow crossfit peeps.

They loved it, and certainly noted the difference between a lacrosse ball and RMM balls.

Patients are often sent for rehabilitation after surgery. But starting those exercise and healthy eating programs before the surgery might help even more. It's not rehab, it's "prehab."

Eat your fats!

I have been tracking my meals with an app for the last few days to help make sure I'm hitting a daily calorie goal. The app then breaks the food down and tells me things like how much cholesterol I've taken in for the day. After eating two hard boiled eggs each morning the app tells me I've gone over my daily limit. It's wrong, so very very wrong.

Ignore the nutrition information you learned through the 70s - 90s (and later) and eat you fats!

The US government has finally accepted that cholesterol is not a 'nutrient of concern', doing a U-turn on their warnings.

Don't be a fitness as***le this holiday season!

I mean fat shaming and food shaming people is never okay, but even extra horrible at this time of year.

The entire fitness industry decides that the best thing we can do at this time of year is attempt to make your life miserable; by telling you how many stupid things you do, how you don't exercise enough, and how you don't have any willpower. We also tell you that any kind of life enjoyment will make you over fat and probably die.
