Heartsong Fit With Vickie Maris | Healthy Ways to Address Stress

Heartsong Fit podcast is stress-relieving conversation for the stressed and stretched-too-thin listener. Your host, Vickie Maris, has been traveling a journey of improving fitness, mindfulness and overall health. With a busy career, farm and life as a musician, she was also involved in elder care that created a demand on her time and increased her stress levels. To address her stress and to keep "skin in the game," Vickie became a Beachbody Coach. That provided her with access to Shakeology at the coach's discounted rate. She continues to include a Shakeology shake in her morning routine and has now added a fitness program. Enjoy her stories and interviews as she shares her journey of living a less-stressed, and a healthier life.

Ride in the Tractor Cab With Roger Miller | Lucille Maris Tells a WWII Story

May 29, 2014

Vickie has the recorder on as she climbs into the cab of a John Deere to interview Roger Miller as he works ground to prepare it for planting in north central Indiana.

 

You’ll feel like you’re in the tractor cab too as you hear the engine running and the variety of beeps and signals emitted from the auto steer in the John Deere.

 

This interview was a way for Vickie to de-stress after a difficult week at work. Some of her favorite days of her career were from the time she spent in agriculture interviewing farmers about techniques for saving soil and protecting water quality.

Maris drafted about his 30 missions as a bomber pilot. There will be more about the book in later episodes. For now, please enjoy this story that Lucille tells about news they received while living in Murfreesboro, Tennessee after Jim had returned from the war.
