As part of my spring cleaning efforts, I wrote out an action plan for my physical health. I asked Hygeia, the Goddess of Health, to help me in my efforts to improve my physical health. Since I am quite obese (and consequently in poor health), I went to my doctor to develop a plan. We decided to work on increasing my exercise by walking daily, and ( Read more... )
