In between, the whole life we are breathing in and out, but not attending to the breath Ninety percent of the impurities in the body go out through the breath because we are breathing twenty-four hours a day. The breath is our best friend -- it's always with us. And yet, we hardly know much about it. What's more ... it holds some timeless s …

Hello...My name is Angela....and I want to make a difference...do you? I grew up with my well being sometimes quite dependant on the kindness and generosity of complete strangers...with my five siblings there were times that we'd sit up to the dinner table to say grace but it wasn't always to say prayers over our food it was at times to say a prayer for our food...I tell you that not to garner your sympathy (as I would not change my life as it has shaped who I am and made me tenderhearted)..I d …

Activities such as hula hooping (the act of doing hula hoop) will strengthen your bones and tone your muscles. This one hour workout uses over 30 core muscles. Hooping is way more fun than the hula hooping you might remember as a child. Our bigger, 1 to 1.5lbs hoops are easier to use. They are wrapped in colorful 'friction' tape used help keep them on your body. Even if you start out believing you can't hoop, with one of these hoops, you can! Nearly everyone can hoop, regardless of age, size or …
