I have been so stressed out lately from work, what is a good tip for stress relief at home? I hear of so many approaches, how do I know what’s best for me? Dale, 26

Tip from Tia:

Don’t worry stress hits us all too some degree. The goal is to make sure you release stress before it takes over your body. And, there are so many approaches out there now, just don’t stress trying to find the right one.

A good start for you is, you actually know where your stressor is coming from. That’s always the first step. What is causing this stress? Then, how to process the stress. And finally, having a positive outlet; a stress reliever. Now, good stress relievers that can be done at home are: exercise, meditation/yoga, stretching, switching your brain gears from work by stopping to watch a movie when you feel anxiety coming on, turn on some favorite music, soft or heavy which ever you prefer and works towards eliminating the anxiety, or go in silence, while enjoying a cup of hot tea or cocoa.

A good diet is important to keep your neurotransmitters firing properly. Adding amino acids or vitamins may work as well. Be sure to do research and discuss with your doctor what’s going on and determine if further medical attention is necessary.

The point is, there is no secret remedy to become stress-free, and it all depends on yourself and what you will enjoy and what helps you find relief.

Exercise of course, is the number one important way to relieve the stress. But to move the furniture, and break out the yoga pad everyday, could put more stress on an individual. An individual that never tried it before, may find it to be the greatest thing they could ever do for themselves.

Either way, some form of activity is key to help with the stresses of life. Whether the exercise you choose is physical, mental or even emotional/spiritual. The stress-relievers that work the best are, things that you find yourself enjoying while you do them.

Most calm individuals find when you continue and look forward to participating in your stress relief method to exhale the day away, you will finally understand that “Zen†thing you’ve heard others talk about.

Being stress-free does help you feel more exciting about yourself and your surroundings. Meditation is proven to help build self-esteem. Remember your beauty comes from the inside and shines out.

However, when you are in a relationship, things get more complicated. It is needless to say that different people can have totally different taste for decorations and when living with your partner some conflicts are commonly observed. It is difficult to reach an agreement on this subject, especially when both of you are reluctant to make compromises Many couples have a lot of disputes, concerning the renovations made in their home and they meet a lot of difficulties when finding a suitable decision to this problem.

In this article you will receive valuable advice on how to make the decorating procedures in your home a pleasant activity for you and for your partner.
Discuss Calmly Your Preferences

It is clear that you have probably different points of view for the decorations in your home, however, shouting at each other won’t be beneficial for your relationship. Instead, you can discuss calmly all of your preferences and to listen to the expectations of your partner. May be he or she has similar ideas, but unless you provide a normal discussion you won’t be able to understand this. If you stick to your own ideas and refuse to listen to the ideas of your partner, you had better be prepared for future disputes that are definitely not the greatest experience.
Let the Compromises Come In Your Home

Making compromises for the decorations in your home will save you up a lot of nerves and tension, caused by the probable disputes with your beloved one. If your boyfriend has decided to paint his office in grey, I suggest you let him do this without murmuring all the time. Instead of this, you can take up with the decorations in the kitchen and to choose a colour that appeals to you. As far as the living room and the bedrooms are concerned, you can discuss with your partner the options that you have and you can again reach an agreement by making some compromises. After all, there is no need to destroy your relationship for such a tiny matter.
Start By Helping Each Other

When living as a couple you also need to share the responsibilities and the duties in your home. Apart from the regular cleaning and from all the household chores, decorations are also included in the list of those tasks. If you have decided to start with the decorations in your home, do not let your partner to manage with the tasks all alone. Be supportive and contribute for the renovations that take place. You may also be helpful if you come up with a fresh idea or change that will make the room look fascinating
These are some valuable tips that will help you to avoid conflicts with your partner, whenever you decide to provide various decorations in your home. You will be able to see that it’s not about colours and modern styles – sometimes you need to make compromises and to forget about your own preferences. Thanks to that, you will be able to choose the best and most suitable decorations for your home. Think creatively and share your ideas with your beloved one for providing modern and innovative decorations for all of your rooms. Roll up sleeves and be prepared to face the challenge of decorating your home without destroying your relationship.

Cancer Prevention Tips

Cancer Prevention Tips

Last night, I participated in Relay for Life, to support the American Cancer Society. I was a guest bartender, slinging drinks to help the cause. I donated a Tips from Tia gift package. Along with the cool swag, some lucky winner got the following tips on how to help with cancer prevention.

Science has shown over 90% of cancers are linked to an over population to yeast in the body. Yeast and Bacteria live harmoniously in the body, but sometimes one will over populate, and you can get a bacterial infection or yeast infection. Cancer cells already live in our body, without a blood supply. Certain factors allow the cells to get a blood source to live and grow. This is what happens when one develops cancer. The best fight against cancer is prevention.

Cancer Prevention Tips

  • Maintain regular exams: Scheduling yearly exams is the best prevention to cancers. Also, self-exams are a great way to make sure nothing has changed. If you are unsure how to give a self-exam, ask your doctor for the best ways.

 

  • Get proper vaccinations to prevent cancers. Ask your doctor about Hepatitis B and HPV vaccinations.

 

  • Practice Safe Sex: Using a condom for intercourse and oral sex can reduce and prevent certain cancers.

  • Avoid over use of substances: Limit your intake to tobacco and alcohol. Over indulgence, on these substances, have been linked to causing certain cancers.

 

 

 

 

  • Limit your fat intake. Being overweight has increased chances of cancer.

 

  • Eat plenty of vegetables: Dark, leafy greens have shown plenty of benefits.

 

  • Eat strawberries. Studies have shown something in strawberries, other than, vitamin C, has abilities to fight cancer cells.

 

  • Get plenty of Vitamin C.

  • Add Olives into your diet. With olive oil, olives themselves or a supplement is a good source, to get olives into your diet.

 

  • Add Cloves into your diet. Either cooking with cloves or an essential oil and making clove water, with only 2 drops in 8 ounces of water and drinking, can help with prevention. (Caution, clove oil is extremely potent and can burn the skin; oil must be diluted with water or a carrier oil, before applying on skin or ingesting.)

 

  • Protect yourself from the sun. Use a high SPF. Apply 30 minutes before entering the sun, and apply repeatedly throughout the day, even on cloudy days.

 

  • Watch sugar intake. That means overall. Not by replacing sure with sweetners. Everything breaks down into sugar in the body. Sugar feeds yeast. If there is an over population of yeast starting in the body, the sugars you ingest will make yeast populate more.

Here’s wishing you and yours the best health! Thanks, again for your support with Relay for Life!

It’s getting close to that time of year when you are planting and such, in the garden. Animals tend to love your garden as much as you do, but their eating habits on your foliage, can be aggravating.

Use clippings of human hair, sprinkled in your garden, to keep animals away. You can approach your local hair salon for this request. It may sound strange but, it will keep the bunnies from eating your vegetation.

So the point is, start getting ready now, so you don’t feel overwhelmed when the weather finally breaks. Winter can leave us all feeling sluggish and blah. Trigger your metabolism now, to prepare your body to get back into that fine shape, you want it to be in.

Be realistic, there are dozens of body types out there; learn to embrace your own. Being healthy is key. Wearing your body well and treating it well, gives you all the beach body you need. A good metabolism is key to a healthy body.

Triggering the metabolism means speeding it back up, because with some of us, it tends to slow down in the colder months, and it’s simple enough to speed up again, with adding a kick to it. And, a kick can be adding some spice to your life. Cooking with peppers are a great healthy way to get that heat and nutrients to make your body happy. A touch of cayenne pepper into your meals to spice it up can help, as well. (Remember a touch of cayenne goes far with heat. But, there are pepper allergies, so if you have them, don’t try this or if you feel you are having an allergic reaction, seek medical attention. Spicy, is not for everyone.)

The most important way to kick start the metabolism back up is, switching your diet to smaller portions and eating more frequently. This can really be beneficial during the start up of warmer weather.
