    Episode 52 dives into the topic of strength training and the benefits that we don't think about. Sure we all want to look good naked, but lifting weights goes much further than that. Adding practical resistance training into your routine can help regulate your hormones and even increase mental cognition. Hitting the weights also can fix some weak knees and a sore back! (when done correctly).

    The healthiest and most successful in life still fuck up all the time. The difference lies in these individuals' ability to bounce back and get on the right path in a short amount of time. There is great skill in recognizing what is going wrong in our lives, forgiving ourselves, and making the changes necessary to make life happier and healthier. 

    We all fuck up, especially the hosts of the show. Episode 50 dives into this topic discussed in the first episode of Balance and Moderation. This discussion is excellent for anyone who has already abandoned their New Years' resolution or just needs to get their life on track.

  • 049 - Relationship Boundaries; Identifying when the line is crossed and how to establish healthy boundaries

    Welcome to Balance and Moderation…

    A Wellness podcast, with some personality…

    Big love is the motto and our message is for everyone, so don’t forget to share this with all the beautiful people in your life. Enjoy!

    Many times, to avoid conflict, individuals will not establish boundaries. At work, this can lead to a boss that treats you poorly in front of others. This can lead to a partner who takes advantage of certain situations in romantic relationships. In friendship, it may lead to emotional abuse/neglect.

    Episode 49 is a discussion between hosts Rob and Sher about their experience with healthy and unhealthy boundaries for life. This conversation focuses on healthy boundaries with others, but personal confidence and health are essential factors in the equation. For another show all about personal boundaries, please check out Episode 31.
