Why I’m Kicking My Coffee Habit

Truth be told, I’ve always known that caffeine/coffee/espresso is addicting. I remember my dad going through phases of “no coffee” and he would have these major withdrawl symptoms. Headaches and moodiness seemed to be rough on him.

My coffee addiction started slowly but progressed due to long days (and nights) in grad school, followed by long days in the clinic, followed by a growing love for sitting in the morning and chatting with friends, holding onto a warm cup of coffee and coconut or oat milk.

She basically takes all of these scientific studies, humor, societal observations, past and current politics, and personal experience and writes comprehensively to show what I already felt was true about females and their hormones.

Breathing Better with Breathe Degrees

Learning how to breathe seems so rudimentary, but in reality, we were never taught how to breathe properly, especially to handle life’s unpredictable circumstances that can literally take our breath away.

So when I was offered the opportunity to learn how to breathe with people outside, under the stars, and test myself afterwards through cold exposure, I said yes.
