Manage Stress
As daily life happens we often get consumed in the craziness. We go off in our head and start to contemplate the “what ifs.” Next we begin to worry about these mental constructs playing out.

You rarely see people there, and it has a wonderful view of the ocean. Often, after my workout I go spend 10 or 15 minutes on that hammock, watch the sunrise or just close my eyes.
