I use a tennis ball and lay down on it or put it on a wall and press up against it!

This is where I carry my tension too, posture is key. I also use lacrosse balls/rollers but when it’s really bad, I just have to take a moment and lay flat in the floor. Sadly, I don’t feel like much helps when it’s already bad, so I have to be more proactive than reactive.

My husband is an alcoholic and it’s getting worse with the holidays. He’s started every day drinking high alcohol-content IPAs as early as 8am. And he drinks them all day and all night like soda. He did AA when he was younger but is now vehemently against it. He is high-functioning. Has a PhD from MIT and works for a venture capitalist firm. I wondered how he gets through the day, but he started to come home early (mid-afternoon) and immediately open a beer while working. What should I do?

31 M 5 foot 8 200 lbs. muscular build. I want to get to 180 and know strength will take a hit. Has anyone experienced weight loss while maintaining muscle mass? Lifting 4-6 times a week for 45 mins. Cardio 1-2 times and that’s like a 15-20 min walk at most. Diet 75% vegan. How can I drop this weight? I’m fine to eat like a dog and have the same meals every day I just need someone to tell me what to eat and when.

Hey Designers! So I’ve been at my current design studio for a little over 10 years. It’s a small studio—2 partners, now 3 additional designers, not including me. I’ve been asked a few times over the years if I’d be interested in being a partner but have turned it down.

It’s recently come up again (potentially 5%). I still need to sit down with them and learn more, but I’m not sure I see the benefits(yet)? Any thoughts from those who’ve done this before? Thanks so much 🙏
