Living Healthier

  Living a healthier life might seem to be easier said than done. In today’s world, we have many challenges that distract and deter us from going after goals. On the flip side, we have better and more opportunities to help us in trying to get to our healthy fitness goals. With that, for myself […]

Staying Active

     Wow, it has literally been over 2 months since I have done a ”Starting Vai” blog.  This blog category was created to basically chart the goings-on/success of Vai Athletica.  With a heavy heart I have not had much to say!  The world is still facing a Pandemic, people and businesses are just trying to hang […]

Meal Prepping

  Hey all! How is everyone?  Here we are at the beginning of August 2020 and I am still struggling with my weight! I am so tired of feeling like I’m making some headway one minute and the next feeling and looking like every ounce is back on!  I can name a plethora of things I […]

What’s With All These Infections?

Approximately a decade later and it’s still the year 2020. We’ve been through it all these days, especially if you’ve been cursed (oh did I say that, I meant blessed) with a toddler during these trying times. As if struggles with career, possible homeschooling, and running out of toilet paper aren’t enough, some of us […]

Meditation

It’s been almost a month since I spilled my guts about postpartum anxiety and how it’s affecting our society in a big way. I’m here to remind you that PPD and PPA are very real (and curable) mental conditions that require a medical diagnosis. Now that that’s out of the way, I’d like to spill […]

Marketing

  Hi all, Well what can I say?  As a new ecommerce small business owner I have mixed feelings about the state of the world, business wise.  On one hand I am grateful for not being a brick and mortar with very low overhead.  Yet on the other hand I am definitely at a stand still […]

GDV! What Is It?

     For Pet Corner I am going to do a series of conditions that can be dangerous and even fatal to our beloved fur children.  Today’s topic is GDV, Gastric Dilatation-volvulus.  Gastric which means of the stomach – Dilatation which means the action or condition of becoming or being made wider, larger – volvulus which means […]

Pandemic and Postpartum Anxiety

The Irony of this title has me feeling a little uncomfortable even as I write it. “Pandemic and Postpartum Anxiety….” If you had told me as little as a year ago that these two would be my current reality, I would have laughed. Hard. A year ago from this day I was riding the high […]
