5 Tips to Reduce Back Pain from Sitting at a Desk

And considering that we spend close to 60 percent of our lives working—this translates to thousands of hours over the course of our lifetime—such a sedentary way of living is bound to predispose you to overstrain your neck, spine, and lower back muscles. Which, of course, translates to chronic back pain, particularly to persons over 40.

Hence, finding the right pillows is paramount to getting a good night’s sleep.

9 Tips for the Vegan and Vegetarian Beginner!
At the end of 2015 I began a a fitness journey. No, I didn’t not stop eating meat at that point. I began meditating and being intentional in the effort to lose weight and to change my diabetic status. After vehemently denying the prescription medications my doctor tried to force me to take to manage type two diabetes; I got serious about changing my lifestyle. Without realizing it, I was practicing a keto diet regimen (all meat/protein and vegetables). I had removed almost all carbs from my diet. I lost almost 25 pounds in three months, on my own doing only cardio, eating protein and vegetables. I realized at that point I needed to do other kinds of exercises in order to tighten my loose skin, tone and build muscle. I enrolled with a personal trainer and began weightlifting and calisthenics. I swiftly lost another 20 pounds, toned, tightened, built muscle and strength.
