Whoever heard of a gym within a supermarket?! As odd as it may sound, that's where you'll find the…read moreHealthy Living Center and I love, love, love this place! The door to the center is located next to the Prescription counter at Hannaford. it's the one at 900 Central Avenue. It's free to join and most of the classes are free as well. The programs are underwritten by Hannaford supermarkets, CDPHP and the YMCA. It's brilliant. By keeping people healthy we can reduce the staggering costs of medical care and health insurance claims. There are also free courses on healthy eating run by Hannaford nutritionist Fran Weiss. You'll find the staff very supportive. The classes are fun. The majority of members are seniors, but they make everyone feel welcome. If this is a template for fitness, I hope more centers like this one will spring up across the region!

Do you want to start exercising, but don't know how or where to get started? The Healthy Living…read moreCenter is the place for you. Located inside Hannaford, you'll find a small, supportive, comfortable place to start working out. To get started with your free (yes, free) membership, just bring in an ID and the person at the front desk will get you all set up and ready to begin your fitness journey. The gym itself has some resistance based machines (If you've ever been to Curves, think of that) if you would like to work on strength and several choices for cardio, including a bike, treadmills, ellipticals, and a rowing machine. And, don't worry; the people working there will help set you up on any of those machines. If doing your own thing isn't your cup of tea, the Healthy Living Center also offers many classes throughout the day and evening, some free and some paid. You can check their schedule on the website and sign up 2 weeks before a class beginning at 8am for the free classes (they clearly label the paid, more advanced classes, which are often around $7/class - so very reasonable). There are spin classes, zumba, HIIT, circuit classes, urban fit, and more. Options are also available for personal training (fee). Instructors are great at providing modifications in classes so that all ability levels are able to participate. The reason I've been a member here for more than three years is partially the amazing instructors, like Regina, but also the amazing community of members the Healthy Living Center has attracted. You'll be welcomed and supported; you'll also find yourself among a diverse client base. People of all races, sizes, ages, and ability levels use the gym here. I honestly can't say enough positive things about this beloved little gym and, guys, it's free - you have absolutely nothing to lose by checking it out.

I had the pleasure of working with Bettina Zumdick during a Macrobiotic (holistic health)…read moreconsultation. Just sitting in the presence of Bettina felt healing. Our session was informative and detailed. I left with lots of information on how to reverse a handful of health conditions and emotional issues. She also gave me great advice on energetic practices to incorporate as well. The special thing about Bettina is she looks at the whole person: from a physical, energetic, emotional and spiritual perspective. Her aim is to address all of these in the session. After our initial consultation I followed up with Bettina multiple times, with both questions and the need for encouragement. Each time, her words landed straight into my heart... its like she knew exactly what I needed to hear. She was never pushy with her advice, but full of love and compassion. She is a truly gifted practitioner and teacher. I'm 6 weeks into her recommendations and have felt huge shifts in my health, weight, and spiritually well being. If you're looking for a holistic approach to wellness and health, I cannot recommend Bettina highly enough.

I've known Kelly Coffey for a while now in various contexts. Her Pleasure Principles online course is a phenomenal and fast way to eradicate the impacts of shame from your life, and just an all around great resource. She's the same as a trainer as she is in every other way that I've encountered her: Brilliant. Creative. Caring. Real. Funny. Effective. Whatever your level of excellence or shortcoming- in fitness or in life - you can show up exactly where and as you are and Coffey will meet you there and help you get to where you want to you, with zero judgement about any of it. Highly recommend!

If, like me, you're a woman who has struggled against her body and had a love-hate relationship…read morewith food virtually all her life, having yo-yo'd with both your habits and your weight more times than you can remember, Kelly is speaking to us. Don't let the "froo-froo" language (how do you spell that?) of "self-care and compassion" fool you; Kelly is both straightforward and direct in her delivery, making what can seem difficult to grasp both clear AND practical. There is no disputing that the Principles she outlines are on the mark for what most of us need, and she offers all the support and encouragement to help us practice them, while modeling the practice herself. In my one-on-one session with her, she helped me breakthrough a block I was having that has helped me to move forward with the practice of the principles and get me on my way!
