Wellness Wednesday: Fitness and Wellness with Blessed Vargas CPT/CNC/USAP
Making wellness a priority in high school is a great way to set yourself up for success in college and beyond!
Physical Wellness will boost energy, better sleep, better digestion, and promote cardiac health. It decreases stress effects, regulates mood, and improves cognitive functioning.
And you can do it all in cowboy boots, jeans and a big buckle! Or is that just a small town SD thing?
