Relieve Your Stress

Stress can strike anywhere and anytime to anyone in this world and anytime his or her lifetime. Well, I can say that stress is probably inevitable to any humans alive in this world.

Stress is also considered the silent killer for most people because recurrence of it usually leads to major damage in human system. So what to do when stress strike?

The answer is simple – GET RID OF IT FAST!:)


Here are some ways to eliminate stress in your life.

EXERCISE

Nothing relieves stress better than a good sweat. Getting a little exercise will allow all that pent up energy and bad feelings to go away. Take a long run or walk, play a game of basketball, or go for a long bike ride. Get active and the stress will melt away.

MEDITATE

Meditating is a wonderful way to relieve stress. Lay down somewhere quiet and try focusing on one thing deeply. I try to focus on my breathing or a gray mist surrounding me. Keep focusing and do not let your mind wander. If you lose your focus, that’s all right your human. Just try to regain that focus. Before you know it you will feel the stress lifting. If you are really focused, you may even fall asleep. There’s nothing wrong with this. Meditation is like anything else it needs practice. Start of by trying to meditate for a couple of minutes without losing your focus and build up from there.

TWO FOR TEA

Next time you feel stress get a cup of tea. Black tea will lower your cortisol levels which mean lower stress. Go for a double stress reliever by having tea with a friend and talking.

HAVE NICE LAUGHS


Laughing is a know stress reliever. Laughing will take your mind of any problems you may have. The next time you feel stress, call a friend and see a comedy. Laugh it up and the stress will melt away.

Another Notch Higher

I got really ecstatic yesterday when I found out that my Eds Mommy Life blog has been accelerated to PR 2! Yes! Finally, after months of being level 1, Mr G. has finally awarded me with another notch higher! :) ( I just hope it will last for many months or I hope another 1 will be added again on the next update. :)

And as a result of this awesome update, that blog has 10 additional tasks yesterday, given by the generous people of SR! Lol! :) Anyways, I need to go now and browse some XBox brochures for my best bud Nikko. He's planning to buy one this month.

Thanks a lot and wishing for more blessings! :)

Dream On

I received a call from my former boss this morning.

She was telling me that she’s selling a branded bag that I would truly love! :) Of course! As a bag-aholic freak I immediately told her “yes! I am so interested!”.

I told her to send me a pic or 2 for me to see its beauty.I was expecting that bag was a Coach bag or a Dooney and Bourke ( like the bags I saw on her online shop ) but I wrong... I was so shocked to discover that it was more than I’ve expected!

She was selling this to me…

God! As if I have the money to buy this expensive beauty! lol!:) She even told me that I can pay her thru installments and a cash deposit to close the deal. Gosh! I think she was just dying to sell this bag because she needs the money for her European trip with her BF! Lol! And as usual, her dad (the chairman) doesn’t know anything about it! Hahaha :)

Anyways, I won’t be buying this one anytime soon because it’s too way out of my budget! In short “ hindi ko siya afford! Hahaha “ So expensive cya db? :) I rather add the money for some Caribbean cruises than buy this expensive bag. :)

Well, I'm not saying that I won't be buying any bag from Chanel! Is just that I'm not yet ready for such investment. Maybe in a year or two boss! Just wait! lol! :)

Gold As An Investment

My uncle Albert has been in the property business for years now. He currently working at Oxford Properties in Canada and is having the time of his life working as a consultant. But of course, everything has its end and we us human get tired of working. Especially if you’ve been working your whole life and is turning 60 this year! lol! ;)

Yes, Uncle Albert will celebrate his 60th birthday this September and he’s quit e expecting the turnaround of events, especially with his career. He’s kinda a wary that this might be his last year but also happy that he has successfully entered the “retirement stage”! lol! :)

Anyways, he’s actually planning for a long term goal now that will really help his family. He thought to invest on stones and minerals and he just told me the other day that he plans to buy gold coins as an investment. Well, personally, investments especially with minerals like gold were never my forte. But just to feed myself with infos I tried to search the net and saw where my uncle plans to buy some golds. :)

Monex Precious Metals is home to a large and dedicated staff of hard asset professionals committed to serving your precious metals investment needs and being America’s best dealer with a convenient market and competitive precious metals prices. Yes! This is the place where gold lays! Lol! :)

Good luck uncle and happy retirement! :)

Detoxify Safely

Detox cleanses and body fasts have become very popular as the focus on health has increased. There are many detox diets and pills out on the market, though, that can cause as much harm as they do good. If you are interested in cleansing your body of toxins from alcohol, tobacco, fatty food or general environmental impurities, here is a safe way to go about it that won’t cramp your lifestyle or pose health complications.

Step 1
Drink plenty of pure water (distilled, filtered, etc). Eliminate coffee from your diet. You can drink green tea as a substitute.

Step 2
Include fiber rich foods in your meals. Organic grains, fresh fruits and vegetables such as radishes, cabbage and beets are good to add to your diet. Eliminate refined sugars, alcohol and saturated fats from your daily meals.

Step 3
Use vitamins and herbal supplements to promote a healthy liver. Taking vitamin C, dandelion root and milk thistle may help cleanse and protect the liver. A liver that is functioning properly is important for overall health.

Step 4
Exercise each day to detox the body daily. Practicing yoga or qigong can be beneficial as many exercises in these systems can help with specific health problems.

Step 5
Relieve stress in your life by practicing meditation. Doing breath meditation for 20 minutes each day can calm you as well as oxygenate your body.

Step 6
Remove toxins from your body by taking sauna baths or using detoxifying patches. You can also take a hot bath with baking soda and Epsom salts or sea salts to detoxify your body. Soak in the bath for 20 minutes and then gently scrub your skin; do this once a week.

Step 7
Try hydrotherapy or dry brushing your skin to improve circulation. You can do hydrotherapy by alternating between hot and cold water when showering. Dry brushing stimulates skin renewal through exfoliation.
