Every week since the New Year, PrettyWellness.com has been top-lining soft news stories about health and wellness in our Health & Wellness News & Info Recap. Armed with a passionate for following trends in wellness circles, I have really enjoyed providing summaries and insights on eating clean, being active, living without toxins and inspirational stories. Since I attended the Green Festival Expo in New York City a few days ago it seemed appropriate for this week’s “News & Info Recap” to cover this event about sustainability and green living.

Now that it’s truly spring, I’m less stressed because in the past few weeks, I’ve been able to be outside. I’ve also power walked to the beach, my zen place. I see exercise as a daily necessity, a part of my cancer treatment and wellness plan. I used to fight it daily, procrastinating “working out.” Now, I’ve accepted that I need to do it and make sure that I at least walk 30-60 minutes a day. This week, in our Health & Wellness News & Info Recap, my favorite post cites another few studies that promote the importance of walking every day for disease prevention. Enjoy this story and others about clean eating, active living and non-toxic living.

It’s been a busy April week getting ready for our stay-cation spring break. Because we have plans to run around town, play with friends and enjoy the outdoors, it’s like we are sampling our future summertime adventures. We’ll definitely hit the beach, one of my favorite summer hot-spots, albeit in jackets and sweatpants. This summer I hope to be reading and writing up these health and wellness news bites there but in my shorts and flip-flops. Enjoy this mid-April, Health & Wellness News & Info Recap including stories about orange media glasses, a documentary on toxic chemicals in our products and a moral bucket list.

Key Learnings After a Year of Blogging & Building A Business
The first time I was diagnosed with cancer, we didn’t have smart phones. No one texted. People still wrote letters, though most employees had email. Once people found out that little ol’ 31-year-old me had cancer, they all sent long notes, cards and packages. Rather than answer every call and email, I started writing “chapters” of my cancer experience and emailing them to family/friends. Many people thought I had a sense of humor about it all. So I wrote more. This time around, once all my friends and family heard I was re-diagnosed, I was told I should write a blog. So I did. Now an official year being “live” with PrettyWellness.com, I’m reflecting on what I learned and how to make a difference in this world.
