Welcome to the last installment of our much-ballyhooed ‘Go Love Yourself’ series. People all over the 92037 zip code are talking about it, so if you’re feeling a little left out of the conversations at Brick ‘n Bell, check out our posts on how exercise benefits the body, the brain and your emotions.

Two days from now September will be behind us. On paper, it doesn’t seem like that big of a deal, but to be living it, it seems absurd how quickly the time has gone. Don’t worry, this is not a wistful look at the past. More a celebration of life, actually. We have a good time here […]
