Healthy Life Challenge!
Eating Healthy Have you ever heard the saying: ‘you are what you eat’? On the face of it, this might seem like something of a meaningless statement. Sure, it sounds good…. But what does it mean?

Your body simply recycles what you put into it and uses it to keep on […]

Can Hot Springs Help Rebalance Your Hormones?
Benefits of soaking in hot, mineral bath have been known for centuries. They stimulate your body with various minerals and other elements. Those minerals penetrate the body and help promote hormone secretion. When a person begins hot bath therapy, the sympathetic nerve becomes predominant. Heart rate goes up, blood pressure rises, and blood sugar level also rises. As we know the body likes to be in homeostasis and to correct what is happening, the parasympathetic nerve becomes predominant. Heart rate goes down, blood pressure decreases and blood sugar also comes down. This process allows the body to repair itself. […]
