  • EP 707 – Salt And More Salt
    Living on a farm and being the girl of the family meant that I made dinner. Dinner was always a big meal and usually was meat and potatoes based. Salt on the meat. Salt in the water to boil the potatoes. I can remember getting into a load of trouble for not remembering to salt the water.
    Today, we salt very little of our food. I have even given it up on my most favourite of foods – corn-on-the-cob. However, there is salt in all most all of the foods that we buy and in most cases way too much.
    We take in way more than our allotted 3 grams per day. On average about 3-5 times this amount, and processed foods are the largest culprits.
    Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Less Salt Day:
    Read the labels and get an idea of how much salt is in the foods that you buy.
    True or False? If you’re trying to watch your sodium intake, eating a can of soup at lunch is a good alternative to a hamburger and fries. It may be, but one cup of soup can have up to 1300 milligrams of sodium.
    Try more herbs – experiment and see what flavours you can add to your meats and soups
    Awareness is the first key to health and wellness. The second is making good choices. Start small by reading and comparing and then choosing the less salt option.
    If you like today’s wellness tips, let me know. You can leave me a review on amazon or through your #alexa app.

  • EP 706 – Safe and Secure
    If you are a parent, you may remember when your little one learned how to crawl. All of a sudden you started to see danger in every corner, in every wall plug, in every drawer and in every room.
    You became super aware of the many potential dangers hiding in your home.
    Is that a bad thing to be on guard and to look for danger? No. We are hard-wired to do so.
    Early humans faced a lot of dangers, and their ability to detect danger evolved to help them evade or battle those dangers in order to survive.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Safe At Home Week:
    The purpose of National Safe At Home Week is to raise awareness of the need to stay safe around the home. So here are some recommended tips:
    Sound the Alarm: Install smoke detectors on every floor of your home and carbon monoxide detectors near sleeping areas.
    Avoid Overload: Check for overloaded extension cords.
    Plan Your Escape: Practice a fire escape plan with your family where you identify two exits for every room.
    Keep Extinguishers Handy: Place all-purpose fire extinguishers in key locations in your home—the kitchen, bedroom and basement.
    Knowing that the space you live in is safe allows your brain to relax and stand down. It allows you to sleep more deeply. And according to research, a safe, secure home promotes emotional security for your children.
    If you like today’s wellness tips, let me know. You can leave me a review on amazon or through your #alexa app.

  • EP 705 – Just Because
    Do you over plan?
    Do you get stuck in the details rather than getting down to it?
    While planning is important, so is being mentally agile. Being mentally agile is being able to shift and turn in a different direction when a challenge or opportunity arises. It is not about going after the next shiny object, but rather being flexible and able to go with the flow of the day.
    Practicing spontaneity keeps you mentally agile and it can be beneficial to your mood and well-being.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Just Because Day:
    This day is a chance to do something without rhyme or reason. To be spontaneous. Just Because.
    So what kinds of things can you do…Just because?
    Go for a walk
    Have an ice cream cone
    Stay in your pj’s
    Dress to the nines
    Buy a friend some flowers
    Call a friend just to say hi
    Watch puppy videos
    Spontaneous people tend to not stress out over much and tend to be happier.
    Spontaneous people make the best of every situation they face, and take full advantage of everything life has to offer. They understand that life goes on, whether it goes as planned or not.
    They’re less disappointed when things don’t turn out the way they expected, as they will simply move on to whatever life has in store for them next.

  • EP 704 – Be Kind And Change The World
    How can you make the world a better place?
    The next evolutionary step for humankind is to move from man to kind.
    Martin Luther King Jr. is quoted as saying that we have flown the air like birds and swum the sea like fishes, but have yet to learn the simple act of walking the earth like brothers.
    We need to counterbalance the negative things we read and hear about every day.  On the Be Kind To Humankind Week site, the organizer posts, “People need people; it’s as simple as that! In order to have the power to make the world a better place, we must first change our attitudes for the better. We can create our own good news if we choose to do so!”
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Be Kind To Humankind Week:
    So this week, try to focus on the little things that are kind and good.
    Show someone that you care - offer to drive someone who has trouble getting around.
    Drive respectfully – try letting another car go ahead of you instead of racing ahead of them
    Spread kindness - make a donation to a charity you love
    Offer a helping hand – offer to babysit or pet sit
    Treat others well – make it a point of saying please and thank-you or holding the door for the person behind you
    Say something nice - if you notice something great about someone, give them a compliment!
    Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world. Desmond Tutu

  • EP 703 – Before Kiss and Make Up
    We all have spats from time to time with our significant other. And when we do, we often make it a point to kiss and make-up. 
    Kiss and Make-Up: means to become friendly again after a fight or disagreement
    Did you know that the purple hyacinth means ‘I’m Sorry – Please forgive me’?
    One site posted a list of apology notes to send with those flowers.
    I like this one…The words are hard to say, but I hope that these flowers pave the way…I’m sorry.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Kiss and Make-Up Day:
    Spats and disagreements do occur, but it is important that you never resort to dirty fighting, which includes name-calling, or cursing. Use I statements, and focus on problem-solving.
    Beside being able to say sorry and send flowers, the Interpersonal Reactivity Index suggest that empathy is the building block of successful interpersonal relationships.
    It suggests these strategies:
    First, after your angry feelings resolve, ask yourself whether there isn’t some value to your partner’s side.
    Take a moment to feel your partner’s pain. Often, when we watch a movie or read a good book, we can put ourselves into the character’s role. After a disagreement, try putting yourself in your partner’s role.
    Finally, if you have lost control in the midst of your argument, try to regain your composure.
    Relationship skills come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and it’s possible that you (and your partner) aren’t as empathic as you could be. Before having to resort to the kiss-and-make up” strategy, find more ways to be in tune with your partner’s thoughts and feelings.
