Pop quiz time peeps!  What color is the sun?  If you answered “Yellow” it’s time to pack a lunch and head back to kindergarten.

Too many times we are lured by the quick and easy way to achieve better health, How many of you take Self Magazine or Men’s Health to the gym to try a new program?  If your journey is to reach vanity instead of peace continue doing what you have been doing all along.
