Does Your Brain Need a Workout?
July 26th, 2010 · 3 Comments · Health and fitness, Jacquie's Posts
I found this article on Yahoo Lifestyle this morning and, though my intention was to write about Chinese Water Torture today (my husband kisses me goodbye every morning at around 5:30 a.m. but I can’t get back to sleep because of the slow and painfully loud, intermittently dripping shower he’s neglected to turn all the [...]

A Whole Lotta Nothing
May 3rd, 2010 · 5 Comments · Health and fitness, Jacquie's Posts
On Sunday Tracy posted a status update that stated she’d just been out for a long walk in the rain and it felt awesome. I knew exactly what she was feeling, as I like nothing better than to take myself outside and get moving…when I can’t figure out how to procrastinate any longer. I recently [...]

Finding Motivation to Exercise
April 6th, 2010 · 6 Comments · Bonnie's Posts, Health and fitness
After reading Jacquie’s post yesterday it got me thinking about how difficult it is to find motivation to exercise when you are already in a bit of a funk. Most of us realize that one of the best ways out of a funk is to get our bodies moving and sweating but taking that first [...]

I visited my naturopath a couple of days ago about a few issues and she suggested that I go on a three week [...]

Are Bronze Winners Happier than Silver?
February 22nd, 2010 · 5 Comments · Health and fitness, Jacquie's Posts
I’ve noticed a lot of sour faces on the Olympic podiums in the first week of competition and most, well, pretty much all of them are on the athletes standing on the second place tier. It was particularly noticeable in men’s moguls when Alex Bilodeau from Canada won and Dale Begg-Smith, the former Olympic champ [...]

The Lowdown on Sugar Highs
December 28th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Health and fitness, Jacquie's Posts
My brain is numb. I can’t think. Through the sugar-induced fog I’m experiencing, I’ve determined that my inability to put two or three semi- comprehensible paragraphs together must be due to the almost straight diet of Almond Roca and Bailey’s filled chocolates I’ve been on since Christmas day. Most of my friends would agree I’m [...]

There is less than a week left before Christmas arrives and for many of us that means the push is on to get all those last minute things done. Wrapping, baking, cleaning, shopping, shopping, and shopping. It can be stressful and very tiring. Then there are all the holiday get-togethers that usually include late nights [...]

The Bottled Water Fairytale
November 28th, 2009 · 8 Comments · Bonnie's Posts, Health and fitness
My husband grumbles about how wrong it is to have to pay for water. “Water belongs to every creature on our planet, it shouldn’t be a commodity that people profit from, and it’s all just bottled tap water anyway” – is his usual spiel. “No it isn’t! It comes from the glacier fed pristine mountain-top [...]
