Spring has officially sprung, and with the warmer days and longer nights there also comes a sense of foreboding. It’s inevitable, but the appearance of spring means another season is right around the corner – bathing suit season. While I am generally a healthy person and stay active year-round, I tend to overindulge throughout the winter, which means that without fail, I have a few pounds to shed and some toning to do before I’m ready to bust out the bikini. Thankfully, I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve that get me feeling better and looking better in record time.

It’s Easter weekend, and although it might not really feel like spring in Canada the spring activities are kicking into high gear all over the country.

Review: Sleep Machines

0
It’s no secret that sleep plays a vital role in our overall health and well-being. In fact, studies show that ongoing sleep deficiency can raise our risk for some chronic health problems, and affect how well we react, work, learn, and get along with others.

So if you are like me and 75% of other Canadians who struggle to get some ZZZ’s, one of these three products might be just what you need.
