by Diana Lang I like to think of life's momentous experiences like beads on a string. Those moments that are important, valuable or rare are like beautiful colored beads that we lovingly thread onto this string of beads. Each bead symbolically represents a moment, an experience, a special person. As life goes on a gorgeous necklace of our lives is created, full of these moments that have meant something to us. This... 11/14/2007 8:55:49 AM
by Brian J. Johnston The holidays are nearly upon us, and the New England Journal of Medicine reports: - The average American gains at least five (5) pounds during the 6-week holiday period - The weight gained during this 6-week holiday period accounts for most of the weight gained over the year - The more overweight a person is at the beginning of the holidays, the more likely they are to gain five (5) or more pounds... 11/13/2007 1:44:47 PM
by Dr. Timothy Sharp The following posting was sent out to my makingchanges.com.au weekly tip list but is, I think, just as relevant to readers of this blog as there's no doubt that happiness is at least partly due to exploring what's possible and striving to reach our potential. I hope you enjoy it... Happy monday morning and welcome back, again, to making changes' weekly tips. I'd like, today. to share with you a story...... 11/12/2007 8:19:42 PM
by Beth Rosenshein Hormone replacement therapy is used when the body makes less of a hormone than it needs. The purpose of any hormone replacement is to make a person healthier. Hormone replacement therapy is one of the most successful areas of modern medical science. In sharp contrast, women are being told that HRT for ovarian failure is not a healthy choice and that untreated hypogonadism (menopause) is a healthier... 11/12/2007 7:20:07 AM
by EdgeUtainment A Goal, Huh, What's That? If you ask most people what their goals are for the next three to five years, they would give you a look like, huh? Most people don't even know where they are going to be in a year, much less any longer and, truthfully, most people maybe only know where they will be Friday night for the best happy hour spot. The reality is most people don't set goals and, therefore, have no... 11/9/2007 9:40:10 AM
by Dr. Timothy Sharp There's much I can write about my favourite topic, happiness, and there's much I have written in my personal Dr. Happy Blog and in my books. But at the end of the day, the most important thing I can tell you is to be happy now! To many of us succomb to what I've come to call the tyranny of when! That is, saying "I'll be happy when...(insert something like...when I have more money, a better job, a faster... 11/8/2007 1:08:31 PM
by Brian J. Johnston OK, so now you "get it", in terms of basic food functions and proper timing, right? Now, I'll adress one of the questions from the first post: "I get the whole carb deal better now, but can I really digest a lot of protein while I'm sleeping? How about a steak about 2 hours before bed? I know it is not ideal, but is that better than eating pasta 2 hours before bed fat-wise?" What I want everyone to... 11/8/2007 11:59:57 AM
by Brian J. Johnston First, let me say a huge "THANK YOU" for the response to my previous post. I'm very honored and grateful to those of you who take the time to read (and hopefully APPLY) the information I'm going to be sharing with you. Working in the health/fitness industry for 18 years now, I realize by your responses that much of what I know and have learned through years of experience I take for granted. And, I... 11/8/2007 11:24:47 AM
by Nina Atwood, M.Ed., LPC I recently received a post in my "Ask The Singlescoach" section of my website and I wanted to share with you: Dear Singlescoach, I recently got back together with a man I dated for four months and broke up with because of a lack of emotional depth in our conversations. He contacted me later, we discussed the issue, and it was like a light bulb came on for him. After that, we took our communication... 11/8/2007 8:00:00 AM
by Lisa Druxman It's always a wonder to me why we are astounded by the rates of obesity and eating disorders in children. We are all frightened by the new realization that for the first time in history our children will have a lesser life expectancy than their parents. Yet, what are we doing to change? Moms continue to diet and to fret about their weight on the scale and we continue to feed our children with restaurant... 11/8/2007 8:00:00 AM
