Throwing Out the Towel

By: Chrysa Smith It's still January. And there are still those resolutions floating around. Have you broken yours yet? Eat less. Work out more. Be kinder. Less judgmental (one of mine), yada, yada, yada. If you get right down to it, most resolutions are about doing more, more, more.
