Kicking off 2012 with Change

by Jennifer Fugo on January 3, 2012

Now’s the time to make some changes…since the western world believes that the Mayans have predicted the end of the world on 12/21/12.

At the ripe ol’ age of 20, I wandered into my first yoga class at the Equinox gym on 19th St.  Though I barely recall the place and the experience, I do remember the my experience of my body the following day.  There appeared to be very sore muscles in places that I’d never known muscle [...]

Who’s responsible for you?

by Jennifer Fugo October 11, 2011

In an age where we tend to point more fingers at others than at ourselves, I have to ask- “When will the blame game end for you?” I could be talking about the healthcare crisis, the economy, or your poor diet and subsequent health.  However, the reasons for all these issues are actually the same.  [...]

Every time I bite into a fresh, juicy peach, I think to myself how awesome the summer is.  Peaches, along with a few other choice fruits, bring memories of being a little kid in the summertime.  When it’s peach season, you can safely bet that I’ve got at least a few in the house and [...]
