Did all that turkey from
Thanksgiving make you want a nap? Since so many people find the
Holiday Season stressful, now is a good time to look at sleep
hygiene. We've heard getting enough sleep is good for us.
But if you are one of the many Americans who can't fall asleep at
night, that may be easier said than done. Here are some tips
for getting a good night's rest.
Exhausted is
different than sleepy:"Contrary to
what people think, being exhausted doesn't necessarily make people
sleep better," says Thomas Roth, PhD, director of the Sleep
Disorder Center at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit. |

With
Thanksgiving just around the corner there is usually more talk of
gratitude this time of year. But an attitude of gratitude is more than
just a tired cliche. Did you know that being grateful is beneficial
all year long?
Alert, enthusiastic, determined, energized: Self-guided
daily gratitude exercises in young adults resulted in higher reported
levels of positive states of alertness, enthusiasm, determination, and
energy compared to a focus on hassles or downward social comparison
(ways in which participants thought they were better off than others). |

Unsatisfied needs of Erik Lenshirr lead him to become Magneto, mutant super villain
Yes I'm an X-men fan as well as Spiderman, Superman, Batman and the list goes on. Recently Kraig, Karson, Naomi and I watched the newest X-men flick. I actually had a blast trying to apply my NVC skills to the characters. Of course I was drawn to giving empathy to the young Erik Lenshirr who was not able to save his non mutant mothers life because he had not yet mastered his skill. The twist is that he now projects his anger and fear toward the humans when it was in fact a Mutant who shot his human mother in front of him as a young boy. |

Having a healthy back begins with proper posture. Among other things, proper posture: Prevents fatigue because muscles are being used more efficiently, allowing the body to use less energy. Prevents strain or overuse problems. Prevents backache and muscular pain. Contributes to a good appearance.
So what
exactly is posture? Posture is the position you hold your body in,
whether it's while standing, sitting, or lying down. "Proper" posture
is when you hold your body (while standing, walking, sitting, and
lying) in positions where the least amount of strain is placed on the
supporting structures like muscles and ligaments. |
