Build Good Food Habits Eating fruits and vegetables is all about creating a habit and taste for it! The more fruits and vegetables you eat, the better you feel and ultimately you will like them.

Learn what is to be taken seriously, and laugh at all the rest I recently got a survey comment that I really enjoyed: “Bean was one of the most excellent instructors I’ve ever practiced with at Sunstone. He brought humor to the mat, and was gentle at the same time.” I would like to point out, after I wrangle my ego back under my hat, that I recall that particular class, and it was not, to my recollection, gentle. People were huffing and puffing, falling out, flailing. But as I stood in the foyer after class, I saw so many smiles. So much sweat. But also, so much joy, contentment, and community.

Diversity Is Key I love HIIT. There are so many sequences and infinite ways to make the classes harder that every day poses a new challenge. I leave feeling accomplished after only 45 minutes, and my strength and stamina increased quickly. Only focusing on my strength, though, caused my mobility to suffer.
