  • EP 657 – Life Balance
    It is a gorgeous July morning. I have finished watering my newly planted grass seed and now it is time to focus on my business. I am finally feeling like my life is in balance.
    This was a reflection on life that I had several years ago.  It didn’t mean that my life wasn’t chaotic, but I was feeling satisfied with the time and energy that I was spending on the various aspects of my life.
    Sometimes my ‘balance’ lasts for a long time, other times, that balance is fleeting. Balance to me, does not mean equal. Balance means satisfaction.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Life Balance Month:
    My First Strategy is the belief that I have a purpose in this world and that this world has a purpose.
    Second, is being comfortable with who I am. I am not superhuman. I try my best to take care of myself. My family and my business need me to function.
    Third, I enjoy the little things and look for the awesome.  In my reflection above, my day started outside, watering and weeding. For me, this is nature at its most glorious and it helps to ground and center me.
    Each day I experience different challenges, but these beliefs keep me satisfied with where I am going. How do you create more satisfaction and balance in your life?
    If you like today’s wellness tips, let me know. You can leave me a review on amazon or through your #alexa app.

  • EP 656 – Grieving The Loss Of A Child
    The loss of a child is the most stressful and inconsolable of losses to deal with. It violates the natural order of things and it’s not fair for an innocent to see their dreams unfulfilled.
    I watched as my husband`s parents grieved for the loss of their son, my husband`s only sibling.  I watched how my brother-in-law`s wife`s parents grieved for the loss of their daughter. Together they were killed by a drunk and drugged driver. Their pain was evident and their grieving styles so different, as was the responses of their family and friends.
    Often, we don’t know what to say or do for grieving parents, so we do nothing.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency Through Bereaved Parents Awareness Month:
    Don`t avoid the parents. It is okay for you to not know what to say or how to help. A listening ear may be what they need the most. I love the sentiment that one parent received from a friend:  “Grieve well. One day you will cease to remember him with tears and instead remember him with smiles.”
    Don`t avoid important dates such as birthdays and anniversaries, but provide an opportunity for the parent to grieve and remember and not feel like they must hold the grief under control.
    Be aware and provide support for both the health of the bereaved parents and their relationships. According to research, bereaved mothers and fathers experience more physical and emotional issues than do non-bereaved parents, including severe depression. It is estimated that over 70% of marriages where a child has died, end in separation or divorce.
    Be patient. Grieving parents may think, do, and say things that are very unlike who they really are and as their family and friends, our job is to be there for them and not judge their reactions as justified or unfair.

  • EP 655 – Dealing With Change
    Moving, having children, starting a new job, quitting a comfortable job, getting married, getting divorced, buying a car, buying a house, upgrading your technology, implementing a new system….
    How Do You Feel About Change?
    Change can be scary – it can be difficult – it can cause anxiety.
    So why do we have so much trouble dealing with change?
    Difficult saying goodbye – whether it be to a loved one or a world that has given identity, change can often mean that we lose something of value.
    Dislike chaotic and confusing situations in which no one seems to know the new rules. This loss in direction can lead to a fear of the unknown.
    Difficulty taking risk. We are creatures of habit which provides us with security, predictability, stability, and comfort. When this disappears, we become anxious and stay awake at night worrying about our choices.
    Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Take Charge Of Change Week:
    Dealing with change can be stressful. Achieve a sense of control by problem-solving around what you can control and letting go of what you can’t control. Control starts in your own mind. If you believe you have control of your life, then you probably do. Actions are the easiest to control, while thoughts and emotions are harder to control. Actions have a positive effect on our thoughts and emotions. Start by controlling your actions.
    Finally, Let go and relax

  • EP 654– Stretching The Truth
    Liar, liar, pants on fire.
    Have you ever told a lie?  Even a little white lie?
    Is it ever okay to lie?  Do you think that stretching the truth is lying?  Or is lying by omission lying?
    Have you ever lied about your spending habits or about an illness to a boss so that you could take an extra vacation day?  Is there such a thing as an acceptable lie?
    Research out of the University of California suggests that people tell an average of two lies a day.  A survey conducted in the UK estimated that parents will tell children approximately 3,000 lies throughout their childhood and a US poll reported that 31% of moms said that they lied more often since having kids.
    So is it possible to always tell the truth?  Probably not as sometimes we lie to protect the feelings of another or to prevent issues from arising. 
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Tell The Truth Day:
    Take note of the things that you may be lying about.  Then, ask yourself why do you feel the need to lie about these things? The insights that you garner may be invaluable in measuring your morale compass.
    See how long you can go without lying.  And avoiding all other human contact during this time doesn’t count.  Do you have a harder time not lying at work or at home?
    REMEMBER THE GOLDEN RULE – Let the truth you share be in a manner that you would also appreciate.

  • EP  653– Kissing For Happiness
    Pucker up. Today is a lip-smacking day.
    Is your technique more washing machine, cannibal, puppy, or prude?
    Did you know that locking lips, increases your heart rate and causes your pupils to dilate? It also releases endorphins causing the feeling of happiness.
    A kiss is a perfect way to tell someone you love them, to connect with that special someone and a perfect way to take your relationship to the next level.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating International Kissing Day:
    Did you know that:
    In Italy and Greece friends, commonly kiss each other on the lips when greeting each other, whereas in France one air kiss on each cheek is a customary greeting.
    In Vietnam, China and Japan kissing between spouses is only done in private. While people from the Netherlands opt for 3 kisses as a form of greeting.
    In one survey, 23% said that their kissing skills were amazing, while 2% said that they were horrible at it.
    They also reported that the worst attributes of a bad kisser were bad breath, too much tongue, teeth gnashing, not enough tongue and no eye contact.
    Funny enough, 11% of people said that there were grossed out by their parents kissing in front of them.
    The act of kissing has many meanings and takes many forms. No matter which type of kiss you prefer, International Kissing Day is the perfect time to celebrate this powerful gesture. And if you don’t have anyone that you can pucker up with, you can always celebrate the day with a yummy Hershey’s Kiss.
