Kevin said to Sophia Grace, the time has come for you to ride this bike by yourself. Remember everything I have taught you, such as put on your helmet before you get on the bike, have both hands on the handles, put your feet on the pedals, etc. Kevin took out his toolbox. He got […]
In my experience, there is only one true way to tackle a diet: failingly. This perhaps explains why I am becoming the answer to the seldom asked philosophical question, “What would Orson Welles have looked like if he weren’t a genius?”
Having said that, I’m happy to report that my latest diet has been largely successful: a steep reduction in my news consumption. For most of my life, I’ve been an avid follower of politics and current events. I not only found it interesting (for the most part – financial news will forever sound to me like when the adults spoke in those televised Peanuts specials), but if I can climb on my high horse for moment without hurting it or myself too badly, I believe it’s a basic obligation of a citizen of a democracy to stay informed. Please avert your eyes as I try to…
As I said last week in my blog “Pro Tip: Don’t Spend All of Your Money,” there are ample words of wisdom to be found in the book of Proverbs. Take Proverbs 10:4 for example. The New International Version of this verse reads, “Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth.” I also like the Living Bible translation of this verse, “Lazy men are soon poor; hard workers get rich.” The term “hard workers” really resonates with me.The obvious take-away from this verse is that we need to work hard at our jobs. However, there is another take-away that I get from this verse: we have to work hard in our daily lives.

Body image is something that many people are concerned about and which has a negative effect on their Mental Health.
Feelings of being low or depressed contribute to anxieties around their appearance, especially when out in the public domain.
Finding clothes that change our outward appearance helps, yet it is inside that the greatest challenges are, which thousands of people have to face each day of their lives.
Below are some suggestions which may help in coping with Body image:
Practice Mindfulness – this involves breathing methods, guided imagery, and other practices to relax the body and mind and help reduce stress.
Speak to someone – sharing your concerns with a GP or therapist, or family and friends; this can help you feel less.
Social Media clearing – Unfollow accounts that make you feel low, and keep the positive people in your profile.
