You’ve got a lively summer planned. You’re obviously going to go to the beach and maybe take a swim. You’ll take in some live entertainment, you’ll get lots of exercise jogging or perhaps playing some tennis, then it’s time to get to the grill. You’re going to be busy! So it’s essential that your hearing […]
Don’t take your eyes off the road. Obviously, it’s good advice, but it doesn’t say much about your other senses. Your ears, for example, are doing a ton of work when you’re driving, helping you track other vehicles, alerting you to information on your dashboard, and keeping you engaged with the other individuals in your […]
