Alcohol has been used for many things for many generations, maybe even as far back as prehistoric times. Alcohol has both positive and negative effects. For example, moderate consumption of alcohol can reduce heart attack risk because it raises the amount of high density lipoproteins (aka “good cholesterol) in the blood stream. It can also improve appetite and assist in the digestion process.

We all wish to live a long and happy life, and while there are things we can do to increase our longevity, there are no guarantees. This is the reason we should live each day as happily as we can. It is not hard to do, but it is a choice we each must make.

We begin only living for the future and the worry that comes with that while forgetting to take pleasure in the moment we are in. In a sense, we lose the trees for the forest. The big picture is important, but Read the rest of this entry »

No CommentsThings to consider when choosing a personal fitness trainer who fits your personality
One person’s brilliant, motivating trainer who really gets results can be another person’s mean bully who reduces them to tears.
Think back to your schooldays. There were some teachers who were inspiring and succeeded in encouraging you to aim high and do your best. Others tried too hard to be everyone’s friend. They didn’t punish you for not doing your work – so you didn’t bother to do it!

Fortunately, there’s one big difference between personal trainers and schoolteachers – you get to select the one you can work with best.
