by Trisha Miller Growing a full, fruitful garden can take immense time and dedication. Not to mention, it can take years of practice to understand what types of plants are best in each climate, when to plant them, if they should be grown from seeds, etc. Luckily, some fruit, veggie, and herb plants actually grow well under almost any circumstances. Some plants are amazingly hearty and will bear produce all year round... 3/31/2016 7:00:00 AM
by Brooke Cade Life can be stressful—that’s just, well, life. The key to living a healthy, stress-free life is to learn how to manage stress and find ways to let it go. In 2015, Popular Science magazine noted that 33% of U.S. adults reported stress had an impact on their mental health. While acute stress isn’t harmful, chronic stress can lead to serious mental (and physical) health issues, which can cause anxiety... 3/31/2016 7:00:00 AM
by Sherianna Boyle After sending off our three children to three different schools with varying start and end times my husband and I land back home for a brief encounter before running off to our jobs, commitments and responsibilities. Our interactions are brief, almost as if we are at a pit stop taking a sip of water before reentering the race. The race against the clock to see just how much we can fit in the course... 3/18/2016 7:00:00 AM
by Fred Fletcher One of the worst diagnoses you can receive is that of having cancer. There are a number of reasons why such a diagnosis is hard to take but the most salient one is the fact that there isn't (at least officially) a cure. The main treatments (i.e., "conventional cancer treatment" or CCT) offered by the American medical establishment fall almost exclusively under the categories of radiation, surgery,... 3/16/2016 7:00:00 AM
by Daniel Castro When you’re stuck and can’t find a solution to your problem, you can stimulate your brain to come up with solutions by simply making a choice – a choice to believe there is a solution somewhere nearby - waiting to be discovered.Belief determines what we see and don’t see, in part, because it affects where we are willing to look or not look for solutions. One particular Friday morning, I was getting... 3/10/2016 10:00:00 PM
by Jenn Ryan It’s easy to take things at face value. We trust the FDA to put labels on our food that actually mean the things they say. Unfortunately, the FDA has majorly fallen short of this integrity we give them. Many of you already know that organic doesn’t mean "no pesticides;" it means no synthetic pesticides were used. Free-range doesn’t mean an open pasture; it means the animal has access to a small door... 2/26/2016 8:00:00 AM
by Robyn Benincasa My teammates and I have learned about building World Class Teams the hard way. By competing in and winning the world's toughest ultra-endurance Adventure Races. From the leech-infested jungles of Borneo to the towering peaks of Tibet and Ecuador, to the frigid seas and glaciers of Patagonia and the searing desert of Namibia, we have run, paddled, mountain biked, climbed, whitewater rafted, spelunked,... 2/23/2016 8:00:00 AM
by David Alter Building and maintaining long-term loving relationships is one of the most challenging activities in which people engage. Relationships are exceedingly complex affairs. The bonds that sustain relationships – for better or worse – are built from what we say using our spoken words, what we communicate with the non-verbal parts of language (i.e., our voice tone and speech pace, body posture, facial expressions,... 2/20/2016 10:00:00 PM
by Joel Fuhrman, M.D. You take care of your children, you take care of your spouse, your take care of your home. But are you taking care of yourself? Too often women put themselves last when it comes to their health, and perhaps that is why heart disease has surpassed cancer as the number one killer for women. Simple diet and lifestyle changes could prevent almost all cardiovascular disease. Do yourself and your loved ones... 2/20/2016 8:00:00 AM
by Lisa Moran I can always recognize when negativity is weighing on my body, mind and spirit as I feel extremely heavy in all areas. My mind becomes foggy. My disposition becomes depressed and/or agitated, and my spirit feels imbalanced and I become lazy and very sluggish. My view of things becomes quite pessimistic and, although I know the methods in which to purge these toxins, it sometimes takes me a few spilled... 2/17/2016 8:00:00 AM
