Mind, Body, Soul
To Consider
By Mona Lease
Greetings, Gals!! I'm submitting the following to you readers. Times
are pretty "emotion-draining." We need to take care of our bodies and
minds. It's hard to sort through all of the "who really said what"...
regarding the Florida school shooting, our government, etc. Enjoy the
following and be safe, ya'll!!
14 Worst Habits For Your Heart (besides smoking)
1)You don't sleep well. Less than 6 hours of sleep a night ups your
risk for coronary trouble.
2)You don't laugh enough. Stress makes your body release cortisol which
narrows the arteries. Laughing relaxes you and lets them stay their
normal size.
3)You don't floss. The inflammation in the gums spreads to the
body..namely the heart, veins, arteries.
4)You live in a big city. Smog is the biggest factor here.
5)You don't stretch. Studies show that if you have a flexible
spine..you have flexible arteries as well.
6)You're not shvitzing. Sweating helps the body to rid itself of toxins.
7)You party too much. Only 2 drinks a day for men and 1 drink a day for
women.
8)You drink too much sugar. Soda drinkers have a higher risk of heart
failure.
9)You're sitting too much. Sitting is equal to smoking concerning heart
health.
10)You forget your fruits and veggies. Recommended daily allowance is 5
servings of these daily.
11)You eat bacon. The World Health Organization says consuming
processed foods (hotdogs, bacon, etc) causes colorectal cancer.
12)You add more than a dash. Salt will drive up your blood pressure.
13)Your jeans aren't fitting. It is estimated that 2/3 of US adults are
overweight or obese.
14)You skip your check-ups. Life-styles and genetics play a big part in
your health. Sun Gazing
Welcome to 2018
Our phones are wireless; Our cooking is fireless.
Our cars are keyless; Our tires are tubeless.
Our food is fatless; Our dresses are sleeveless.
Our relationships are meaningless; Our attitudes are careless.
Our feelings are heartless.
Our babies are Fatherless; Our children are mannerless.
Our education is valueless; Our youth is jobless.
Our country is Godless; Our leaders are shameless.
Our politicians are worthless; Our government is clueless.
We are speechless and I'm scared crapless.
And everyone is offended. - Minions Fans
This Vegetable Will Fix Everything Wrong In Your Body
Beets contain betaine, which is a natural anti-inflammatory agent that
supports heart health. The anthrocyanins give them the red color and
have strong anti-cancer properties. Beets boost blood flow, regulate
cholesterol levels, and support healthy liver function. Beets fight
anemia and detoxify the body. They also decelerate aging and protect
the blood vessels. Beets can be eaten raw, juiced, cooked, and baked.
You should not throw away the leaves, you can cook them as they are
rich in potassium (644 mg per half cup). Beetroot Salad with Olive Oil
and Apple Cider Vinegar: 8 oz of beetroot (beets); 2 T extra virgin
olive oil; 2 T apple cider vinegar. Wash beetroots and cut off the
tops. Peel the skin (or peel the skin after cooking) and cut into
chunks. Boil in plenty of water for 35 minutes. Mix the cooked beetroot
with the olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Season with pink Himalayan
salt and mix well. Dress the salad with the beetroot leaves. Enjoy! -

10 Life Lessons You Can Only Learn By Failing
10)The lesson that painful things can happen to you and you will
survive them.
9)The lesson that when you feel your lowest, you realize what you have
no one can take away from you - your resilience, your ethics, and all
the other qualities that make you a powerful person.
8)The lesson that just because higher-up people say "This can't fail"
doesn't make it true. Always trust your gut - the most reliable guide
you've got.
7)The lesson that when you are down, you learn who your friends are.
6)The lesson that failing, getting up and trying again is the way to
build muscles. It's the only way, in fact. You don't get stronger by
sailing through life without facing obstacles.
5)The lesson that what felt like a failure in the moment eventually
becomes powerful learning that will help you enormously in the future.
4)The lesson that if other people want to judge you because they think
you're a failure, that's fine - those people don't matter to you anyway.
3)The lesson that you can only feel like a failure by buying into the
idea that life is about winning and losing. It's not.
2)The lesson that the best people are the people who never face
adversity. That's absurd! People who face and surmount adversity are
the strongest people you will meet.
1)The lesson that failing and trying again are fun, once you get used
to the feeling of the free-fall. - Forbes
I heard you were addicted to Tide Pods. I was, but I'm clean now.
"Sometimes all you need is for someone to just be there, even if they
can't solve your problems. Just knowing there is someone who cares can
make all the difference." - sun.gazing.com
