Quentin Bryce Quotes

• Cuando una mujer está en forma y sana, todo lo demás encaja. Estamos condicionadas a dar prioridad a los demás, ese "síndrome de la chuleta quemada" que observamos en nuestras madres. Hace falta disciplina para cuidar la dieta, hacer ejercicio y dejar tiempo para refrescar la mente, el cuerpo y el espíritu.
