To Chew On:
Friday
– The Floodgate of Hope
1
Corinthians 13:13 (NKJV)
And now abide faith, hope, love, these three;
but the greatest of these is love.
Thought
For The Day:
Without
hope, faith is stunted and love is
stymied…
On
This “Frequent Friday.” I have a question and be honest…. Are you a frequent
fast food junky? If the truth be told we all are guilty!!! Today is a new day as we
are going to make wiser choices…. So I dare you to stop eating fast foods for 1 week and start
eating from the garden (fresh veggie), no oils and fats and exercise for a week and you will see the
difference. We want to hear from you and let us know how you felt!! Now this
dare is not only for you be also for me as well…. So we are in this together…

Have the Victory!! Have a Healthy Day with HHWN J

to a high shelf, picking up the Sunday paper, taking food out of the microwave.
Arm stretches like the overhead reach below
will give you more range of motion and maybe even help with some of your
shoulder stiffness and pain.

DIY Tips to Selecting the Best Running Shoe for your Foot
Everyone’s
particular foot shape, foot structure and running gait are different, and that
means the ideal running shoe for one person might be all wrong for someone
else. The wrong shoe can make injury
more likely to happen or just feel uncomfortable during your run, but a shoe
designed for your particular needs will help make running easier and more
enjoyable.
While
it’s true that the more technical the shoe, the higher the price tag tends to
be, but don’t let sticker shock prevent you from obtaining the right running
shoe for your situation. Many retailers offer special deals and coupon codes
that can be found online and used toward purchases. For instance, search for finish
line coupons to locate promotions that can save you some dollars off your shoe
purchase.
