Addressing the Imo State PDP delegation who paid him a visit in Abuja, Senator Sheriff said the party is in its current leadership mess because of the imposition of candidates against the wishes of the people.

When in doubt, go with less processed and more fresh foods. 3.  Exercise on a regular basis.  No matter what your fitness level, keep moving. Be aware of the mind-body connection and try to do something healthy for your body each day. Your brain will thank you by making you feel better. 4. Acknowledge that you are a spiritual creature and that you are part of something bigger than yourself. 5. Meditate. Take a few moments each day to quiet your mind and focus on your breath.
