Summary: Click HERE to get in iTunes Click HERE to get in Stitcher When you’re looking to get results (change) in your body and health, there are five areas to pay attention to – a kind of road map or compass that can help keep you heading for balance. In fact, if you’re not where you want to be then I could almost guarantee that at least one of these five areas needs attention. Plus, in a previous podcast I talked about evaluating your metabolism. What if you want to experiment with trying to raise yours? Well, I give you seven ways to begin to do that.
