    Smiling is a blissful way to live longer
    Harvey ball a commercial artist from Massachusetts created the smiley face in 1963.
    That image went on to become the most recognizable symbol of goodwill and good cheer on the planet.
    Smiling is contagious. It changes our mood. It fights stress and builds your resiliency.
    Smiling boosts your immune system. It lowers your blood pressure and blocks pain.
    Smiling makes your face look younger.
     
    So Here Are My Hot Tips For Building Resiliency On World Smile Day:
    Use it.
    Even if you don't feel like smiling, fake it until you make it. There is a theory entitled the facial feedback hypothesis. Research has shown that the muscles in our face that allow us to smile, actually stimulate our brain. And when this part of the brain is stimulated, it makes us feel happy.
    Share it.
    There are friendly smiles and romantic smiles. There are many different smiles and different ways the act of smiling can be done. Smiles can communicate feelings, show kindness, or help take someone's mind off their problems.
    So for today, smile.

  • EP 740 – Less Than Perfect Is Health
    I am a perfectionist.
    Are you?
    Do you know someone who is?
     
    Perfectionists are extremely hard workers and they generally accomplish more than the average person. However perfectionists are extremely hard on themselves and on those around them.

  • EP 739 – Someday and Procrastination
    If running the kids around was actually exercise I would have been in such amazingly good shape! Unfortunately, as women, caregiving can get in the way of taking care of ourselves.  Often, we spend our time looking after the needs of others and sacrifice our own health along the way.  “Someday I will get to it”, is a motto that many of us have lived by.
    Guilt is not helpful either.  Feeling guilty because things are not the way we would want them to be, is very detrimental to our health.
    Part of balance is having areas of your life that bring you motivation, energy and satisfaction.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency During National Women’s Health and Fitness Day:
    Stop thinking ‘someday’ and find something today.  Start small if you must.  Get outside for a few minutes and play with the dog.  Try some stretching exercises while sitting at your desk.  Reach for a glass of water rather than another cup of coffee. 
    Ask for help in order to free up some time.  We don’t need to do it all ourselves. 
    Remember that having great days, and having great health and fitness, encompass a variety of things from relaxation and pampering, to eating right and sleeping right, to activities that get your heart beating and your muscles working.
    It’s our responsibility to make sure we are doing things that promote health because if we wait until someday, it may be too late.

  • EP 738 – Minimizing Caffeine
    Coffee has never been more popular, with an estimated 3 billion cups consumed every day.
    Caffeine can promote alertness, and it may decrease the occurrence of depression.
    However, sleep can be negatively affected by caffeine. It can create a never-ending cycle of reduced sleep, fatigue, and a need for increased caffeine consumption.
    Our sensitivity to caffeine and the impact on our sleep seems to be dependent on age, the amount of caffeine ingested at bedtime, and also on the amount of caffeine ingested over the whole day.
    So here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating International Coffee Day:
    Caffeine consumed close to sleep time has the greatest potential for sleep disruption, so be aware of how much caffeine you are consuming in a day and when.
    When stress is at its highest, it is advisable to cut back on caffeine. Caffeine abstinence for a whole day can improve sleep quality quickly, which is vital for being able to cope and ward off the negative impact of the stressful situation.
    Finally, while drinking caffeinated coffee in moderation can help to maintain adequate fluids, which can reduce fatigue, water is still considered to be more beneficial in rehydration and maintaining cognitive functioning.
