Hi friends,

Here is this week’s list of what I’m exploring and thinking about. Feel free to forward this along to friends.

Coffee I’m drinking

Hawaiian Toasty Banana Nut Cream by Kauai Coffee. This is the perfect summer coffee drink that tastes like tropical paradise. If you ever visit Kauai, I highly recommend taking a tour of the Kauai Coffee Estate to learn how it’s made.

How I improve my posture

One of the easiest ways to improve your posture is to place a rolled-up towel or pillow in the curve of the low back. Providing support a

t the base of the spine makes it easy to sustain an upright posture for hours. Bonus: start strengthening the upper back muscles by performing exercises like rows or shoulder external rotations with resistance to maintain good posture in any position.

Bike I’m using

I’ve been using the Trek Verve 1 for just over a year now. It is the perfect combination of speed and comfort—hence its place in Trek’s hybrid bike category. I am a leisurely cyclist and mainly use my bike for commuting to work and going for strolls along Chicago’s Lakefront Trail. Its upright positioning isn’t going to win any races, but the comfort it provides is next to none in the bike industry.

What I’m watching

New Girl. It’s currently on Hulu and Peacock. After a long day, it’s good to wind down with an easy-going show that will make you laugh.

Word of the week

Muse: to become absorbed in thought, and to think about something carefully and thoroughly.

Until next week,

Kevin
