An Interview with Dr. Armstrong
How do you eat right and stay well? I enjoy cooking so I meal-prep in batches to create delicious, healthy meals and save time/money.
How do you make time to exercise? To make time for exercise, I strive for routine and wake up early to start the day with some sort of movement.
How do you take care of yourself? I truly believe self-care is not selfish, so I prioritize time during the week to do things I enjoy such as yoga, reading, getting massages, or listening to inspirational podcasts.
