H&W|5-4-3-2-1 Technique
A few years ago, my therapist taught me a simple grounding exercise called the 5-4-3-2-1 Technique. I’ll be honest—I wasn’t sure something so simple could make a difference. But it does. When life feels overwhelming, stressful, frustrating, or you’re simply in a funky mood, this technique helps bring your attention back to the present moment.…

H&W |Keep Moving and Drink Water
Do you spend most of your day sitting? Many of us know we need to move our legs, get up, and walk more. But what about the rest of our body? This week I realized I had become so focused on my hips and lower body that I was neglecting my neck, shoulders, arms, and…

H&W|Keep Your Medical Information Together
