The Power of the Morning Routine
During the first 30 minutes of our day, we make the decision to either move our day forward or let our day pass us by. When we get up and MOVE, we immediately create momentum and literally propel our energy forward. When we continue to lay down, snooze the alarm clock, and procrastinate until we are borderline late for work, the day has already chalked up a win over our mind and body. The morning routine takes extreme discipline, but its rewards are extraordinary. Don't believe me? Try this plan for just one week and compare your results!

5 Easy Changes for a Healthier Life
Sit down at any local Starbucks and chances are you'll hear someone talking about how they want to be more fit or giving advice on the topic. Meanwhile, they are chugging away their fourth Double Chocolate Chip Creme Frappuccino Blended Creme with Whip and can't figure out why they get two hours of sleep at night.

Things You Should Do Right Before Bed
There are many of us that lack a good night's sleep. Either we sleep past 2 AM, constantly tossing and turning, or your surroundings are preventing you from sleep. Whatever it may be, there's a reason that most people wake up in the morning groggy and in the worst mood.

Insomnia
Many people around the world suffer from insomnia daily. There are so many factors as to what causes this to happen to so many people. I know I'm personally one. Actually, the idea for this blog came from a late night of sitting up looking at the walls. I've tried taking sleeping medication and even making sure I do the normal things that will allow the body to relax. Things like a hot shower, soothing lotion, and relaxing with a good book. However, I find myself still wide awake with not an ounce of sleep in sight at 5 in the morning. I actually saw the sun rise this morning. I've grown tired of watching my husband sleep all night like a giant baby and I get up cleaning the kitchen or eating leftovers from dinner. I had to start finding ways to find sleep around the same time that he does or I knew it was going to be a long night.

It Matters
I've started this article many times, always deciding I don't have the words to do justice to the feelings, therefore erasing it from my computer and mind. The fact is, these things keep coming up and every time I'm reminded that it needs to be dealt with, it needs to be addressed. But, how do I explain all of the ways that my life was different and why it mattered. How does that matter for the people reading it? The fact is, it needs to be talked about because life is real, love is real, hurt is real. It matters, it effects your life and it can't be dismissed like it didn't shape your life.
