Why lose any sleep over stuff you cannot change! Wash away any guilt! It's not worth it!

There's nothing like a hot drink to make you feel all warm and relaxed before turning in after a busy day. Routinely making a mug at night might help you unwind and sleep better — especially because some caffeine-free herbal teas, such as chamomile and peppermint, are said to help relieve insomnia.

Life is a challenge! So rise up and meet it every day!

Fast food doesn't automatically equal bad food! Chain restaurants are doing more these days to make their meals healthier. They're also providing a lot more information about the nutritional content of the food so that you can make the best choices. With that in mind. look out KFC here I come! ( my fast food weakness, I am human to,on occasions).

Just when you think you can't keep going remember, it's getting through those weak moments that makes us stronger.

Old track suit pants, your other half's extra large T-shirt (ask him first!), a pair of cargo shorts? It doesn't matter! It's all 100 percent acceptable gear for working out. There is one standard rule, though: for safety reasons, you'll probably want to wear running shoes or trainers, which have good support for your feet and ankles.

Friendships, Love, Health, Enthusiasm and Energy are things that make life worth living.

How about a day of pampering? Get a new haircut, a facial, or a massage. There's no need go to an expensive spa! Ask your mum or a friend to let the children stay with her overnight, and spend an evening soaking in a bath filled with lavender-scented essential oils. Then dive into that book you've been meaning to finish.

It's not about putting people down, it's about lifting people up.

Focus on your attitude to everything that happens to you and try to see the positive and the humorous side of each situation.

Do you walk the recommended 10,000 steps a day? If not, it's a great health goal to strive for! Japanese researchers were the first to set that number of steps to take a day; it is also about equal to the government's recommended 30 minutes of daily physical activity. Taking 10,000 steps burns approximately 300 calories and, over time, has been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease and help with the maintenance of a healthy weight. Does 10,000 steps sound like a lot? Don't worry! You don't have to walk all 10,000 at once — and they don't even have to come from what you normally think of as exercise. If you go grocery shopping and walk through the aisles for 45 minutes, you've walked 2,000 steps or so right there! It's easy to find new ways to rack up more steps!

Great Fun at Boot Camp this Morning!

And you thought Halloween was over? Early in the morning while others are half asleep, you can see girlie's jumping over bodies up a hill that becomes rather steep? Once they where up they where up, when they where down they where down, but when they where only half way up they where neither up nor down! B..........y Brilliant!!

Get your blood pressure tested regularly.

Eat more heart-healthy foods, including fish, poultry, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and cheese and skim or low-fat milk.

If you drink alcohol, limit your intake to no more than one drink a day.

If you smoke, it's high time to quit this deadly habit!

Get your cholesterol checked at regular intervals.

Start exercising on a regular basis — even 10 minutes each day will do the trick.

Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know! An optimistic outlook can awaken you to new possibilities that are often buried by self doubt and negativity.

Set aside a time to tackle a project around your living space that needs doing — maybe a cupboard needs organizing or you can finally get around to putting up that new shelf — and work away until you finish. Just like that, you've completed your workout for the day and your home looks and feels more organized! You can't beat that! Well you could by attending Boot Camp 6am every week day morning!

Duck!

And Dive!

"You are a unique, beautiful and rare individual-the one and only YOU!" X

There's no shortage of things you can do to create more energy! But first I'd look at your sleeping habits — people often need more energy because they regularly get by on less than seven hours of sleep. That's not enough! Although exercise, a healthy diet, and lots of water will definitely help energize you, nothing can compensate for a lack of sleep. So try to go to bed at the same time every night and get up at the same time every morning. And try to get a full eight hours of uninterrupted sleep!
