CBD DICTIONARY

Cannabidiol– Also known as CBD, cannabidiol is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis plants.

A few months ago, we reviewed this Bullet proof insert for backpacks. We were not completely sure what we thought and we still do not know. But with the continuing issues of these gun relating mass shooting and our Government's continued inaction to enacted sensible Gun control laws and possibly an Assault Weapons ban. We thought we would show the backpack again. This is America, we are not a third world country and the thought that our Kids can not go to school safely is very disturbing to all of us. We believe it is time to stand up  let our voices be heard!  Because our kids need to be safe.

Parenthood…it’s one of the most difficult jobs any of us can hold. The people who choose to take on this monumental task are committing decades of their lives, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year—to being parents. Regardless of all of the other roles and responsibilities in their lives, being a parent becomes a large part of their identity. Through all of the trials and tribulations that come with raising children, their parent’s lives become less focused on their marriage and more focused on the lives of their children.

One of the most common issues I come across in my work with couples is a lack of quality time together. In today’s world, it’s easy to get caught up in everything that has to get done at work and at home: long hours at work; home maintenance; running errands; shuttling kids or loved ones from place to place…endless “to-do” lists.

Feeling alert and restored upon waking after a good night’s sleep is experienced regularly by only 32% of Americans. At least once a week, the rest of us struggle to get both the quantity and quality of sleep we need. If you fall into this majority, chances are you’re on the lookout for ways you can get a little more shut-eye and wake up feeling refreshed rather than drained. Instead of reaching for the sleeping pills, mindfulness meditation can give you the rest you need without the grogginess on waking.

I once heard a comedian say, “I’m sooo upset! My muffler just fell off my car and now I have to go buy a louder stereo.” The joke makes a point that can be well applied to American health care. We spend the majority of our resources trying to mask (ignore) symptoms instead of fixing the underlying problem.

The issues arising from the misdirected focus of treating symptoms is best illustrated when it comes to back pain. The standard medical approach consists of pain medication
