4 Simple Tricks For Keeping Your Waist And Your Wallet Healthy …
It’s a New Year and that means it’s the perfect benchmark for trying new things, setting goals, and making resolutions. Many people are interested in improving their health both physically and fiscally, so here are a couple of easy ideas for 2016.
#1: Move More. Everyone hears about how we need to stay active and move more. Experts are even starting to claim, “sitting is the new smoking”. Obviously, we are living at a time when it’s really easy to be sedentary, and unlike our ancestors, moving and being physically active takes a bit of conscience effort. So, why not just set an easy 30 minute goal for yourself this year? 30 minutes of activity a day, be it a walk, a run, dancing with your kids, doing a YouTube video class, or a trip to the gym. Find a way to break a sweat for 30 minutes a day and it could be transformational.*
#2: Save More. This is easier than it sounds, especially if you can do it in a way that is painless. Take 5% of your paycheck and set it in an untouchable account. Make a game of saving money with the whole family. Set a budget and try to pay in cash, take the money you save and put it aside. You just might surprise yourself at how much extra you can squirrel away when you put your mind to it.
#3: Eat Less. Okay, losing weight isn ’t rocket science, it’s just science. Experts say if you eat fewer calories than you burn, you’ll lose weight. So why is it so darn hard? Sometimes the biggest battle is just between our ears. If you really decide to just commit and then cut down on your portion sizes you might be pleasantly surprised at your results. Weight loss doesn’t have to be all or nothing, it’s a journey not an event. Find ways to make the food you love more diet friendly, or try to fall in love with simple foods that are naturally slimming. Savor your meals and eat smaller portions and you might just find that you’re losing weight without having to try so hard.*
#4: Spend less. You don ’t have to give up your daily trip to your favorite coffee shop, but what if you just cut back a little on the expensive coffees? Or, maybe it would make sense to invest in a cappuccino machine and see if it can pay for itself with homemade gourmet coffee. Make a deal with yourself to only shop the sale racks at your favorite stores, and look for social media coupons and local discounts to fund your recreation. Again, it doesn’t have to be “painful” because it’s these little changes that can have big effects.
*These are just suggestions, please check with your doctor before embarking on any exercise or weight loss plans.
“The new year stands before us, like a chapter in a book, waiting to be written. We can help write
that story by setting goals.”
– Melody Beattie, contemporary American author.
Who doesn’t want to have beautiful, glowing skin? No matter what your age you can have a healthy glow and look awesome.
Here are a few easy steps you can add to your daily routine to boost the glow factor in your skin.
#1: Dry skin brush. Have you heard of this daily ritual? It ’s easy and cheap and many people swear by it. You need a natural bristle body brush, and you can usually pick one up at the health food store for less than ten bucks. Then, before you shower each day use the brush in sweeping motions starting at your toes and working your way up your body. Sweep towards your heart and then go ahead with your shower. Many people claim this dry brushing will stimulate your lymph system and exfoliate dead skin, giving your body a nice fresh glow. Check out www.MindBodyGreen.com under “dry skin brushing” for a nice article on this technique.
#2: Take collagen. Last month we talked about healing bone broth. Well many experts claim the collagen in bone broth can help your skin be healthier and firmer. Lot’s of companies make tasteless collagen pow-ders that mix easily with water and other liquids. Find one that works for you and try adding it into your daily routine. (For some interesting read-ing on this subject go to www.DrAxe.com and search “collagen”.)
#3: Drink your greens. Unless you ’ve been living under a rock some-where, you’ve heard all about the benefits of drinking green juices and smoothies. One of the many side effects of drinking the green stuff hap-pens to be giving your skin a nice, healthy glow. (Kris Carr of www.KrisCarr.com is a wonderful resource if you want to get started pur-suing your glow this way.)
*Disclaimer: These are just suggestions, I’m not a doctor or health specialist of any kind, so please clear anything your do with your doctor.

3 Healthy Habits That Can Have Your Skin Glowing In 2016!
Are Your Ready To Stop Time In It’s Tracks?
At Least On Your Carpet…
Dear Friend, Can you believe it’s 2016 already? Wow! I’m sure I don’t have to tell you how fast “Father Time” is marching by. It seems like just yesterday we were ringing in 2015, now it’s a thing of the past. Speaking of time marching on……
How Long Has It Really Been Since You Called Me?
Maybe it seems like I was just out at your house “yesterday” but think about it. Has it been 3 months? 6 months? A year? Two years? Yikes!
Don’t let your carpets suffer from neglect just because time marches by so quickly. Think about all the “marching by” you and your family (and maybe the pets) have been doing since my last visit. All that foot traffic brings in carpet dam-aging dirt, dander, pollens, molds, and more. And then there is the dust mite population that’s been growing, you need to have me clean out. Yes! It’s time to clean it all out and restore your carpets to their beautiful, shining glory. Be-sides, did you know?
January Is One Of the Best Months To Clean Your Carpets!
Every year I have to try and turn around the “slow season” that inevitably comes right after the New Year begins. But that’s what makes January the best time to clean! Because I’m trying so hard to keep busy, you get my deep-est discounts of the year! Plus, you have your “choice” of the schedule. Don’t worry; your carpets will dry just as quickly in the winter because I’ll make a special effort to keep the cold air out of your home while it’s being cleaned.
Plus, think about how much time you spend inside in the winter – shouldn’t you be lounging around on clean carpets? Shouldn’t you be breathing clean indoor air?
Don’t let another minute pass by without taking care of one of your home’s most valuable investments, or before you know it more time will march by and your carpets will be in sorry shape. Just grab your phone right now and call me at 338-9017 or text me at 310-4044 or contact me by e-mail [email protected]
Do you know anyone who is an off-season bargain hunter? Please have them call/text me right away and I will give them 25% off same as you.
P.S. I pay you cash or credit for your referrals...so thanks in ad-vance!

It’s the time of year when everyone is excited about new beginnings and fresh starts. It’s a time for setting goals and reaching out to be your best. If you’re looking for some personal growth in 2016, then here are a couple of easy ideas that could lead you just where you want to be.
Don’t let yourself “hang out” in a negative place. Now I’m not talking about literally hanging out in negative places, although that wouldn’t be good either. But, I’m talking about not letting yourself dwell on the negative thoughts inside your mind.
Let’s face it, life happens and sometimes there is really hard, terrible stuff we have to deal with. But think about this, two people can go through the same bad experience and one can come out stronger and the other can be broken. How is that possible?
Usually the difference between a person who recovers with resilience and one who folds and never recovers, is the way negative experience are processed in their own minds. Of course, there are life-altering events that can happen to a person that shakes them to their very core, and sometimes they need professional help and support to recover. But, for most of life’s ups and downs a real change between the ears can do wonders for a person’s personal growth.
One way to avoid staying in a negative place is to simply not allow yourself do it. Accept what happened and then replace these feelings and thoughts with “bright spots”, the things in your life you are truly grateful for. Experts seem to agree that people who make a daily practice of gratitude are inherently happier.
Another proven way to expand your personal growth is to give to others. Giving makes you happier and will make you feel good. There area many ways you can incorporate giving into your life. Whether it’s helping an elderly neighbor clear their driveway of snow, taking cookies to a friend, cheering up a depressed friend with a text message or card, contributing to a family in need, giving to a favorite charity, or volunteering to help in an assisted living home or hospital. Giving, in any way, will help you to grow and be happier.
