Here is a great way to burn some calories while you enjoy a favorite comedy on the tube. No treks through the snow and ice. Just a great little exercise routine you can do in your living room!

Merry Christmas



"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."

Luke 2:8-14


 


Wishing You a Warm, Merry Christmas!

Less Holiday Stress

Are you a little stressed out during these hectic last few days before Christmas? Trying to keep up with the demands of family and work? Relax! Enjoy the Holidays! Get outside - if you can - and breathe in the fresh Winter air. Go for a long run! ( Or a fast paced walk will do... )




Exercise can give you a natural high unmatched by any drink or drug. And it helps you get rid of stress!! Try it. What have you got to lose - except maybe some useless Holiday stress. Enjoy this special time of year. Forget about all the pressures of travel and presents and schedules. Take a moment to reflect on those you love. The people in your life you are most thankful for.

A Balanced Life

At the end of the day, what really matters most? Making the choice to lead a well balanced, and hopefully happy life is up to each of us.








What can we do to keep on track emotionally during stress filled times?


Just a few simple habits – practiced regularly – often lead to much happier and more fulfilling lives.

Enjoy eating healthy foods – good, natural foods that are high in nutrients, fiber, “good fats,” and lean protein. Enjoy a variety of fruits and vegetables daily. Get some protein early in the day.

Exercise and stay active. So many of us tend to spend a great deal of time sitting. Its unavoidable – we sit at our desks for hours on end, and in the car. Then we go home and sink into a favorite easy chair.

The human body was built to be active. Enjoy a long, healthy walk. Too cold outside? Exercise right in the comfort of home. Get a jump rope, or do some push-ups and jumping jacks.
