  • EP 667 – Everyone Deserves a Massage
    There is nothing more relaxing than having a skilled massage therapist work out the tension from overly taunt neck and shoulder muscles.
    Massage can be an important component to promoting mental health.
    Stress causes the blood vessels to constrict and reduce circulation. Muscles become tense. This decreased circulation to our brain hinders our ability to focus, problem-solve and be productive. When our muscles are tense, our bodies become tight and sore.
    Massage can increase circulation and promote the body’s relaxation response. The other benefit is that a massage can takes you out of the hectic pace and forces you to be still and to let your mind wander for a period of time. When our mind is allowed to relax it is better able to focus when we need it to after the massage.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Everyone Deserves a Massage Week:
    Remember that your needs are important. You need to take care of yourself first and foremost. Looks for ways, like a relaxing massage, that can promote your mental health.
    As a massage therapist, consider the ways that you can get involved in promoting mental health during this week, especially to those who are experiencing a chronic or terminal illness, or in recognition of public service, such as your local firefighters, police officers or emergency responders.
     
    If you like today’s wellness tips, let me know. You can leave me a review on amazon or through your #alexa app.

  • EP 666 – Restless Leg
    Have You Ever Had The Sensation That Your Legs Are Unable To Relax When Trying To Go To Bed At Night?
    Has it kept you awake or even made you pace the floors trying to get them to stop tingling?
    If yes, you may have experienced Restless Leg Syndrome.
    This is no joking matter for many people. Some research shows that Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) may affect 3 – 15% of the general population.
    When I first experienced it, I was pregnant.  I was awake for 3 days straight.  It had me beside myself and stressed out trying to find ways to get them to relax.  When I asked the doctor, his response was that he didn’t know what it was or what could be causing it and that I should just try and get some sleep. 
    It wasn’t till I found a name for this on-line that I knew what I was dealing with
    Since then, I have experienced it a few times each year – especially when I get over-tired. 
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency By Dealing With Restless Leg Syndrome:
    Ensure that it is not a reaction to a medication that you may be taking
    Avoid getting over-tired or stressed out
    Try massage, relaxation techniques and stretches to prepare your body for sleeping
    Remove caffeine and other stimulants from your diet
    If nothing seems to work, check with your doctor, as there are a variety of medications that may be useful in reducing the symptoms and allow for a better sleep
    If you like today’s wellness tips, let me know. You can leave me a review on amazon or through your #alexa app.

  • EP 665 – Releasing Regret
    Should’ve… Could’ve… Would’ve
    …I should have taken that other job.  Should have talked to my friends before I spent all that time and energy.  I could have bought the blue one instead of the black one.  I should have just left it alone.
    Most of us have things that we regret, or wish were different in our lives, however it is both our good and bad decisions that mould us into who we are today.
    A great piece of advice that I was given is to “Never look back unless you are planning to go that way.”
    Easier said than done.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Toss Away The ‘Could Haves’ and ‘Should Haves’ Day:
    Today is the day that we write down our “could haves” and “should haves” on a piece of paper and then throw that list into the trash or fireplace. Then we make the pledge: “From this day forward, I choose not to live in the past—the past is history that I can’t change. I can do something about the present—I choose to live in the present.”
    Or you can try this, write down these headings on a piece of paper:
    My Regrets
    The Role I Played
    The Effect That The Regret Has On My Life
    Valuable Lessons That I Have Learned
    What Will Happen If I Continue To Hold On To The Regret
    What Will My Life Be Like If I Release The Regret
    Steps I Can Take To Release The Regret
    Steps I Can Take To Prevent Myself From Making The Same Mistake/Poor Choice
    This exercise can take some time, but it can help us to learn from our past and release the regret that we have, so that we can move forward into a healthier space.

  • EP  664 – All Natural Does Not Necessarily Mean Safe
    Don’t worry. It’s all natural.
    Herbal medicine is expanding in popularity.
    According to a study published in the Journal of Nutrition, 70% of adults 60 years and older take at least one supplement daily, and 29% take four or more each day. Billions of dollars are spent annually on herbal products and billions more on vitamins, minerals and other dietary supplements.
    Herbal supplements have been credited with aiding everything from digestion to depression, but it’s important to understand that “all natural” doesn’t always translate to safe.
    Herbal supplements are not regulated like other drugs or foods, so being aware and staying safe and healthy is vital.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Herbal Prescription Awareness Month:
    Follow these Safety Tips:
    Always talk to your healthcare provider or pharmacist first before taking an herbal medication or supplement to avoid negative impacts with certain foods or other medication.
    One common herbal medication is St. John’s Wort. St. John’s Wort can be effective on mild to moderate depression, however it can interact with a large number of medications, including antidepressants, allergy drugs, birth control, and warfarin.
    Ginkgo, most commonly taken to improve memory, has been shown to interact with aspirin, diuretics, anticonvulsants, antidepressants, and blood thinners.
    Finally, follow supplement instructions, in the same way that you would follow a prescription from your healthcare provider

  • EP 663 – Social Wellness for Mental Health
    What is Workplace Culture?
    Workplace organizational culture is defined as the attitudes, values, and beliefs that shape the workplace environment. The culture or these “unwritten rules” can impact employee morale, productivity and health. It plays a key role in predicting workplace satisfaction and stress levels and provides the foundation for workplace health.
    One of the most often neglected areas of workplace culture. is the social support that is given and received in our teams. It is seen as an ‘extra’, a social nicety, or something to focus on if you have time.
    With more people living alone or separate from extended family and friends, it is critical that we are as diligent about our social well being as we are about our physical well being.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Social Wellness Month:
    July is Social Wellness Month and it reminds us that we need to reach out to others and build stronger social ties with co-workers, family and friends.
    Social connection provided by friends and colleagues may ward off depression, boost self-esteem, and provide support, along with fewer cardiovascular problems and immune problems, and lower levels of cortisol. People with strong social connections feel more relaxed and at peace, which is related to better health and a better bottom-line.
    Workplace celebrations are an important part of social wellness and can range from monthly birthday parties to rewards for team accomplishments.  It’s about making connections and knowing that you’re a part of something bigger than yourself.
