I want to write this blog so that people will have the opportunity to see my journey and have some of the tips I have to get yourself to where you want…

At-Home Workouts!
Hello and welcome back to another blog post for tips to living a healthy lifestyle! One thing that is a huge factor in living healthy, mentally and physically, is exercise. Exercise is great because it gets your blood pumping and it can also release endorphins which is beneficial to mental health and happiness. Taking time out of your day to get a workout in cannot always be easy or convenient. Sometimes it is easy and convenient to go to the gym and I still just don’t want to do it. Living in Wisconsin especially when it is only 5 degrees out, it makes it hard sometimes to want to leave…
