What Does Your Posture Reveal?

Whether we are driving, working at a desk, or even just standing still, poor posture can contribute to a number of physical aches and pains.
With a consistent program of massage therapy, the painful points in muscles are loosened and relaxed, joints have greater freedom, and pressure points are relieved. This allows the body to position itself in a healthy and natural posture.

THE GREATER GOOD CHALLENGE! The next 21 days

STEP 2 – Maintaining a Good Start: February 1st, 2010 – February 22nd, 2010
Category 1: Living like a minimalist
· I often stress out during times of the year when birthdays and Christmas comes around because of the expense of presents. I have done this in the past and need to start again... So all of the change that I accumulate goes into a piggy bank instead of spending it and is used for Christmas and birthday gifts throughout the year. Let’s see how much change I can collect in 21 days?

Category 2: Healthy Living
· This is one many of us can improve on I’m sure – Eating out!! I will allow myself one cheat day per week to eat out. Other than that I challenge myself to make my meals at home. This takes planning. So what I have done is sat down and come up with 4 full weeks of meals on a spread sheet. When I go to the grocery store on the weekend, I take a look at the menu and make a list for just that upcoming week. In addition to the weekly menu, I have a “bare minimum” shopping list that never changes. This is a list of groceries that I have come up with that contains all of the staples that we keep in the house on a regular basis to facilitate breakfasts, snacks and dinners. For example, basic fruits and veggies, pasta, rice, breads, milk, juices, granola bars etc. If I always have these in the house and something has come up where I can’t make what was originally planned on the menu for that night, or if the budget is a little tighter for that week, I always have the staples around to cook a decent meal. Further, instead of making 2 portions for dinner, I make 4 so that lunch is ready to go for us for the next day! This will hopefully minimize the urge to eat out and spend money on those quick fixes!

Category 3: Pay it Forward
· I have to take a moment to share my gratitude for the kindness that someone has given me this past week. I came into Fruition last weekend to start my shift and I was handed an envelope with a note in it. The note was anonymous and had said “Erin, please accept this gift for your schooling.” While I will choose not to share what the gift was, I can’t begin to tell you how overwhelmed I was to know that someone had thought of me and my education. To the very kind and thoughtful person(s) who did this for me, your gift has humbled me, and has served as a reminder of how blessed and fortunate I am, even in the most unexpected moments. Now, while I’m not sure I can return the favour personally (because I don’t know who or where this gift came from), what I can do is accept it graciously and promise to pay the gesture forward to another deserving individual one day. Thank you.

For your health: BENEFITS OF ALMOND OIL
· Almond Oil: is a wonderful emollient. When applied to the skin it is a fantastic moisturizer, keeping the skin soft and hydrated. Further, it is a great natural alternative to synthetic moisturizers that contain chemicals and best of all it is inexpensive! I use choose to use Almond Oil as my facial moisturizer, but it can be applied anywhere. A medium sized bottle costs approximately $6-$8 at health food stores and it lasts me a few months for my face! Be sure to store it in the fridge to extend its shelf life.
