The ABC Cognitive Behavioural Tool is useful to work out what we are telling ourselves that feels life threatening when we get stressed or have emotional responses like anger, frustration and irritation.
These ideas will decrease stress and improve your emotional wellbeing.
Teachers and education staff endure greater job-related stress than other professionals, according to recent research. However there are a number of tools and techniques to help manage and reduce stress.
We need to eat well for our prefrontal cortex (rational brain) to work and allow us to perform to the best of our abilities. Often when people feel irritable, are in a mood or they are finding it hard to concentrate it is because their prefrontal cortex needs refuelling as it has a short battery.
Your physical wellbeing is key to your mental performance. The stronger you are physically the better your mind and body will work. Chess master Garry Kasparov swears by his exercising routine to keep his brain in shape.

Honoring the Past, By Building the Future
(Photo credit: Ohio Student Association)
They organize in Cleveland and Youngstown, Columbus and Dayton, Toledo and Cincinnati. They take on issues like student debt, economic and educational justice, and the disenfranchisement of young voters. They lobby, they take direct action, they develop new movement leaders, and they win. They win real change, the Wellstone Way.
The Ohio Student Association (OSA) is made up of college students, high-school students, graduates, grad students, young people who never went to college, and some who started and haven't yet finished. They organize on campuses and in communities across Ohio, to build power, grow a movement, and win change.
And Wellstone Action's got their back.
One of the ways OSA wins lasting change is their Fellowship for Community Change Program. "The fellowship program is a semester long; we train individual leaders as a group, so they can learn organizing skills together," explains James Hayes, the group's Political Director, "Fellows work together on OSA campaigns, so they're learning from doing. Leadership development is something we dedicate ourselves to year in and year out."
This year's cohort of OSA Fellows met for retreats throughout the year. In Cincinnati and Columbus, Wellstone joined OSA staff and fellows, training them in the science, and the art, of being powerful, change-making community organizers.
For Molly Shack, OSA's Communications Director, our partnership was a vital part of the success of this year's program, "Wellstone helps us dig down into our values, and brought concrete tools on the mechanics of organizing, from making an ask, to canvassing, to base building. Wellstone has had a huge impact on our immediate campaigns, and our work for the future."
One session Wellstone offered was on the power of developing your narrative story. According to James, it was a particularly powerful lesson, "Wellstone really drove home the importance of owning your narrative; you have to own it and tell it. If you do this work, you have to do it from a place of understanding why you're doing it, why it's important to you, and why other people should be brought along that path."
We're proud of the work we did with the fellows in 2014, empowering young change-makers with the hard skills, and a deeper love, for organizing. But we're even more proud of the work they'll do this summer, with their Wellstone experience fresh in mind.
"This is the 50th anniversary of Freedom Summer," says James, "A coalition of young people-led groups from Ohio, Mississippi, and Texas got together and agreed that we should honor the past by building the future. This summer should be about the next 50 years, not just last 50." So members of OSA will be road tripping down to Jackson, Mississippi this summer to collaborate with young leaders in the South. But they'll also be up in Ohio, honoring the impact of the 1964 Freedom Summer, by making this a summer of change. They're building Freedom Hubs across the state, to launch a field campaign that will register 10,000 young people to vote and build a new base of power for progressives in the Buckeye State.
It's work that is strengthened by the partnership with Wellstone. "The last training was a canvass training, and it was many people's first time canvassing, so a lot of the fellows were nervous, shuffling around, uncomfortable with the work," explains Molly, "But after the training, and after the debrief, they felt really empowered. That what Wellstone does so well. Wellstone helps people feel comfortable to take risks, and be empowered by organizing choices. The training was crucial to get us to where we are right now."
We know change doesn't happen after a single series of trainings, no matter how good they are. Nor does it come from a single summer, no matter how powerful it is. So OSA and Wellstone are excited to get back at it, next school year, and the one after that, and for many years to come, developing leaders, building a movement, organizing for change, together, the Wellstone Way.
We also know that to change a state as big and diverse as Ohio, it takes working across the state, with many different progressive partners. So we'll be in Ohio throughout the year, with youth-led organizations, with our labor brothers and sisters, and with the hundreds of our Ohio alumni who are running for office, leading campaigns, and winning the Wellstone Way. So keep checking back, right here on the Wellstone Blog, for updates from the Buckeye State.

Leave and cleave part 3
Leave and Cleave part 3
Truth #4: IT INVOLVES EMOTIONAL CLEAVING
Aside from not leaving physically, a bigger problem will be not leaving emotionally. We love our parents so much (that is good) that we don't have emotional independence from them. We look to them for everything. This is a hard fact to deal with – "Are you a mama's boy?" My wife's dad was like this so she left her family and went back to his mama. She never met him.
We need to cut the emotional dependence we have with our old family so that we can cleave to our wives emotionally. We are not able to become a new unit because we did not leave our old unit.
When conflict arises, we grind our wives instead of being one with her. A principle that i learned is that "We should have a united front." This means that we discuss matters privately and present it as your decision specially to your parents. This will protect our wives from being the bad guy. Ex. She doesn't want to go to the party. You'll both agree and say we decided or i decided not to go specially when talking to your parents. You don't go saying " we won't go because she doesn't want to." Then she becomes the bad guy. And when there is something good being done, it should be presented as her good. Ex. My wife wants to give this gift to you… Etc. We build them up and carry the flaws to ourselves. This is being a man for our wives, sacrificially loving her. This isn't even to the point of death, these are just small issues.
Be one with your wife, physically and emotionally. Leave your old family, detach from them and cleave to your wife – be united in goals, in purposes, in decisions, and in handling the finances.

ST. LOUIS — Police are looking for a man who tossed a pair of kittens from his car along Highway 370 in Bridgeton, Mo. Wednesday afternoon.
Bridgeton is about 25 miles northwest of St. Louis.
The man tossed the kittens from the window of his SUV while driving down the highway.
Witnesses say the man appeared to be between the ages of 20 and 35. He was driving a 1970s or 1980s SUV colored silver-gray or greenish-gray.
He tossed one kitten and then another into the traffic along Highway 370, which links St. Louis and St. Charles counties.
"It was a horrible scene and I hope that no one ever has to see this again," said Emily Meier, an eyewitness. "I just really came back to see if the other kitten was still alive and take it home," she said.
"One of the kittens was killed by the car immediately behind the man's SUV. The other kitten might have survived because neither police nor animal control officers were able to find it.

Well, if that title doesn't firmly stamp "bureaucrat" on my forehead, I'm not sure what will. After all, doesn't the recent (and excellent) Tow Center report on "Post-Industrial Journalism" say (accurately) that "the presence of process is a bigger obstacle to change than the absence of money"?
Yes. But.
Legacy process – the way we're used to doing things, or making people do things – is unquestionably a huge issue for newsrooms and media businesses trying to adapt to a much-changed landscape. We have to find ways around it, as well as create more flexible newsroom processes that can adjust more easily to changes yet to come. But finding and fixing on stable processes is also a critical component of how the media fulfills its responsibilities to society – and very likely a key part of how it can make money in the future.
First, a step back. The Tow report – more accurately, Post-Industrial Journalism: Adapting to the Present, by C.W. Anderson, Emily Bell and Clay Shirky – speaks to the need to come up with a "hackable" workflow. It says much more than that, of course, and there's been much written about the report, including here, here and here. But let's, for the moment, stick to the need for cultural change in newsrooms and a content management system, or CMS, that can adapt flexibly to different – and newly invented – forms of content. (Full disclosure – the authors talked to me in the course of research, although I can't say I provided much in the way of deep insights.)
Without that, they note, newsroom culture – processes – are precisely designed to hamper change.
This conundrum isn't surprising; as we noted in our definition of institutions, the entire purpose of institutional arrangements is actually to ingrain and rationalize standardized patterns of behavior – in other words, to make change hard.
And in stable – and "industrial journalism" – times, that made sense. Culture helped ensure standards and served to build pride in publications and brands; processes helped make sure the presses ran on time.
But times have changed, and as the report notes, newsrooms now need to be able to experiment much more freely with new ways of working and new types of content; for that, they need an adaptable CMS that doesn't straightjacket journalists into doing things only in prescribed ways.
That's absolutely true. CMSes originally designed to turn out stories once a day – often as free text with some metadata – just aren't suited for a modern information landscape. Having a system that could easily adapt to the needs of specific types of stories – a relationship map, ala Muckety, or a murder tracker such as Homicide Watch, say – would let newsrooms experiment much more quickly to see what works and what doesn't. And we need more experimentation.
Beyond CMSes, we need mindsets to change, too – to rethink what a story is, how coverage should be planned, what the role of a news organization is, and all that.
But there are also virtues to consistency – of process, of product – that serve readers and finances.
As the report notes, the press plays a role not just as a watchdog over wrongdoing, but also provides a "scarecrow" deterrent simply through regular coverage of specific beats. That only comes by enforcing a certain type of coverage through a newsroom process.
The watchdog press, it must be admitted, barks only rarely. But the continuity of the press, the fact that it is "out there," is often enough to constrain bad behavior on the part of powerful institutions.
We think the real institutional function at risk in this case, however, is the scarecrow function.
And that's not a small thing. A great investigative journalism unit may uncover an instance of corruption at city hall; but if such reports are few and far between, there might be a lot of other problems going uncovered. On the other hand, the prospect of a diligent – even if unspectacular – reporter writing about a particular department every week should at least make officials think twice about what they can get away with.
The promise of continuing and sustained coverage isn't useful just as a deterrent; it also serves users/readers well, because they know they can count on it. If I know the local news organization will cover schools in depth on a regular basis, rather than splash a big investigation on the education department once a year, I'm more likely to want to follow it regularly. Both types of reporting are important, but regular beat reporting often gets shorter shrift when it comes to debates over the future of journalism.
And perhaps just as critically, such regular coverage means you can collect information consistently, and that gives you the building blocks for data businesses that can scale. Homicide Watch works because it covers every murder in DC, not just the ones it thinks are newsworthy; Politifact tracks a large pool of political statements regularly, rather than do a big roundup of fact-checking whenever it's in vogue.
But all this requires a process. And a relatively stable one. We can't get that kind of coverage without a system for making sure reporters show up each day, or have them collect a standard set of data in every story. In fact, you need a CMS built around that process. It doesn't work if your newsroom decides one week to cover school standards and health violations at restaurants the next.
True, forcing people to do one thing is by definition forcing them not to do something else. But life is all about choices. (After all, Homicide Watch, Politifact, Muckety all require their staff to do things a certain way.)
And while experimentation is critical to find new, promising fields that may work well for users, we need to figure out how to focus quickly once we see something that works, so we can turn our efforts into helping it scale. Indeed, the Tow report points to the need to help new news organizations become more like institutions – which in turn means their settling on practices and processes rather than being flown by the seat of the pants.
"Public" or noncommercial resources (including government and foundation money) should be used primarily to helping organizations institutionalize.
To put it another way, the problem isn't process per se; it's process that's wedded to a product that really no longer exists – a once-a-day "product" built primarily around the story as the basic unit of news.
Rather, the key insight of journalists raised on the rhythms of digital production and programming languages is the understanding that "content" is not used once and then discarded. Rather, content is endlessly reusable and should be designed for perpetual levels of iteration.
Amen to that, which echoes very much the core themes of structured journalism. As Ken Doctor notes in a recent smart post on technology-enabled journalism:
We live in an age of way too much. People want context, not more content.
Well, OK. They want both. But content without context isn't very helpful, and structured information can help build the products that can more automatically – more scalably – provide context. And that should free up journalists to do more original digging. (Not to mention help pay the bills.)
But all that requires us to figure out, and then submit to, some kind of process. But the good kind.

About Erectile Dysfunction
The term erectile dysfunction refers to a recurring and persistent condition where a man is unable to achieve or maintain an erection and complete sexual intercourse. In most cases, erectile dysfunction is a sign of a deeper, underlying problem and many doctors consider it one of the earliest signs of heart disease. There are several other causes for erectile dysfunction, including hypertension, diabetes and obesity. Drugs like Viagra and Cialis can correct some of the mechanical reasons for erectile dysfunction, but doctors will also suggest lifestyle changes, like diet and exercise, to help treat, and even cure erectile dysfunction.
How Exercise Affects the Body
Aerobic exercise strengthens the cardiovascular system by making the heart stronger and the lungs more efficient. A stronger heart delivers more blood to the body with fewer beats, which also lowers blood pressure. Efficient lungs can transfer more oxygen into the blood stream with each breath. Resistance exercise increases the metabolism so that we burn more calories at rest. Resistance exercise also helps with venous return--helping the blood return from the extremities to the heart. Additionally, exercise regulates blood sugar by increasing the amount of energy we use and helps us maintain healthy weight and body composition. It is possible to exercise too much, however, and over-exercising can cause a decrease in testosterone levels and diminished libido. Exercising 30 minutes a day at least five days a week is sufficient for overall health.
How Exercise Affects Erectile Dysfunction
The penis needs adequate blood flow in order to become erect and healthy blood vessels in order to remain erect. Diseases like hypertension, diabetes and obesity all adversely affect vascular health. Because exercise can actually improve vascular health and reverse or control the factors that contribute to erectile dysfunction, it can actually improve erectile response. Exercise also has direct effects on erectile dysfunction by improving circulation to all parts of the body, including the penis. According to the American Council on Exercise (ACE), men who exercised vigorously for 20 to 30 minutes were less likely to have erection problems as inactive men. Additionally, ACE sites a University of California study where 78 sedentary men reported more reliable sexual functioning and more frequent sexual activity after exercising one hour per day, three to four times a week.

Sept. 14, 2015. Jewelry District Association issues position statement on PawSox ball park proposal. The full text follows:
Jewelry District Association votes "NO!"
to a PawSox stadium on the I-195 redevelopment land
While initial reaction to the PawSox proposed stadium in April appeared to be largely negative, some members of the JDA urged that no decision be made pro or con until further information became available.
So the Association has remained neutral. Until now. After months of discussion, the PawSox proposal is locked up at the office of the Speaker of the House; no meaningful new details are forthcoming, financial or otherwise.
Two weeks ago, when the active members of the JDA were asked to vote on locating the stadium on Parcels 4, 14 and 42 of the I-195 redevelopment area, their vote was decisive: 66% Opposed. 21% For. And 13% Abstaining.
The JDA has not made a hasty or uninformed decision.
As soon as the PawSox made their original proposal, we invited them to a JDA monthly meeting. In one of his last public appearances, James Skeffington presented the PawSox case to a packed JDA meeting and conducted a lively Q & A session.
In the months since, JDA leadership and individual members have attended many information sessions – PawSox presentations, public forums organized by stadium opponents, meetings of the I-195 Redevelopment District Commission.
It is clear that the original financial proposal from the PawSox was a raid on the pockets of all the tax payers in Rhode Island. A land grab. A blow to Pawtucket. An inflated claim of job generation. A fanciful notion that the stadium could work as multi-use venue for football, baseball, ice hockey and concerts.
Planning to create a vibrant new core in the Jewelry District.
For more than a decade, the JDA has been working with the City of Providence, the I-195 Commission, RIDOT and many local organizations to make sure the land freed by the demolition of I-195 would develop as a vibrant, new, mixed-use center for the historic Jewelry District neighborhood.
The nearly five acres (Parcel 4) on the Providence River waterfront that the PawSox want for the ball park are designated for a public park by the Federal Highway Administration. With its footbridge linking the east and west sides of the river, the park will be a unique place for public enjoyment. The city of Providence demonstrated remarkable foresight when it opened up the river to the public years ago. The new park will expand a resource that has won Providence national renown as a walkable, livable city.
And, invisibly to all but engineers, the park plays a key role in a complex storm water abatement system designed to allow large-scale building in the I-195 redevelopment area. If the ball park goes in, more millions of dollars would be needed to rework the infrastructure.
As the I-195 parcels begin to fill up with buildings, the park will be the only open space for the new residents and workers in the Jewelry District. It will not be the narrow linear extension of the river walk that the PawSox said they'd allow alongside their stadium wall.
It will offer a wide open space for multiple public activities year 'round. (Unlike a baseball stadium that sits empty nine months a year, a useless hulk blocking the broad river vista opened to the public by the destruction of I-195.)
The JDA is not opposed to a baseball park in principle, just not on the proposed site.
If McCoy Stadium (for which the citizens are still paying) and Pawtucket must be abandoned – and we ask Why? – the JDA would welcome the PawSox at some alternate site.
But whatever the site, it must involve: NO land giveaway. NO public money. NO subsidies or tax cuts. NO loan guarantees or lease/leaseback deals that make the owners a profit at the taxpayers' expense.
We urge the public to join us in saying NO to a baseball stadium on parcels 4, 14 and 42.

An angry wife has caused a stir during a holy festival after she spotted another woman with her husband at the venue.
A religious festival has ended up in serious a fight when a woman spotted her husband canoodling with another woman who was obviously his lover among the tens of thousands of people in the crowd.
This resulted in the women and their friends getting involved in a fight, pulling hair and slapping each other as passers-by tried to restore order.
According to local reports, the incident was captured on camera by a passerby during the processions of Semana Santa at Santo Cristobal in Lima, Peru.
The procession, known as the ascension of the hill of Santo Cristobal, is one of the holiest pilgrimages for the faithful during holy week in Lima, Peru.
The wife had decided to travel alone to the festival after her husband told her he was busy.
She was apparently expecting an opportunity for reflection and peace alongside the other pilgrims, but was horrified when she spotted her husband doing the pilgrimage with his lover.
Upon seeing the two of them together, the wife lunged at her husband's mistress, and it was only with difficulty that other pilgrims were able to separate them.
The disruption caused a delay in the normally two hour-long pilgrimage, and also prevented the final scene in which the crucifixion is re-enacted at the top of the hill.

New York Lawmakers Likely To Focus On Education Policy,...
1.07.15 6:28pm
Gov. Andrew Cuomo address postponed following the death of his father, former Gov. Mario Cuomo.
New York lawmakers gaveled into 2015 Wednesday, beginning a six-month session that's likely to focus on education policy, New York City's rent laws and the debate over police safety and alleged misconduct.
The Assembly and Senate both convened shortly after noon for a mostly formal first-day that saw Democratic Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver and Republican Senate Leader Dean Skelos re-elected to their positions for two years.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo intended to deliver his state of the state address Wednesday night but postponed the speech for two weeks following the death of his father, former Gov. Mario Cuomo. The administration plans to release its proposed state budget late this month.
One change from last session: the Senate had been controlled by a coalition of Republicans and a breakaway faction of Democrats known as the Independent Democratic Conference. But that power-sharing arrangement was made unnecessary after Republicans won a clear Senate majority in last fall's elections.

Emptying of the magma chamber beneath led to a massive collapse resulting in a caldera with a depth of 350 m. An ongoing eruption and the caldera Enclos Fouqué are seen in the background.

A pink porta-potty could be coming to a lawn near you in the second annual Flush Out Cancer campaign.
The Windsor/Essex office of the Canadian Cancer Society kicked off breast cancer awareness month Monday with its pink potty outside CenterLine (Windsor) Limited in LaSalle. Businesses that see the pink porta-potty outside in the morning have to raise at least $100 to get the fundraising potty moved to a new location by the end of the work day. The business gets to decide who gets the porta-potty next.
tap here to see other videos from our team.
"Flush out cancer is a really fun way to deal with a very serious issue," Kelly O'Rourke, community fundraising specialist with the Windsor/Essex office of the Canadian Cancer Society, said Monday.
CenterLine agreed to be the first company and is matching the dollars raised by employees. Dorie Deslippe, a human resources payroll administrator, said last year employees raised $1,541. By Monday afternoon before the night shift the employees had raised $871 which means CenterLine is expected to give more than $1,742. The company has raised about $30,000 overall for the Canadian Cancer Society in the last three years and participates in the Relay for Life, Deslippe said.
Deslippe said her mother passed away from breast cancer and every little bit of money raised can help with research or help people dealing with cancer.
The Flush out Cancer campaign is different, she said. "It's something to get people involved," she said. "You don't see a pink porta-potty on anyone's business front lawn."
Festival Tent sponsors the fundraiser and moves the bright pink porta-potty around until the end of October. CenterLine, Enwin Utilities, Ground Effects and the Libro Credit Union (formerly United Communities Credit Union) have agreed to match funds raised by employees, O'Rourke said.
Last year the pink potty raised about $13,000 and O'Rourke hopes that improves to $15,000 this month.
October is breast cancer awareness month. One in nine Canadian women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime and it is the second leading cause of cancer in women, O'Rourke said.
The five-year survival rate is 88 per cent now compared to 73 per cent in the 1980s. The breast cancer death rate has dropped 44 per cent in the last 30 years thanks to early detection and better therapies.The Canadian Cancer Society
has invested more than $100 million in breast cancer research during the last 20 years. To learn more about cancer you can call the society's toll-free cancer information service at 1-888-939-3333.
The pink potty, which isn't a useable portable toilet, sometimes arrives as a surprise for a company and last year spent a day at a pumpkin patch. "People loved the idea," "O'Rourke email@example.com twitter.com/winstarhill

The great season is behind us and CSKA Moscow won a new, eighth in their history, European title since they beat Efes 91:83 in the grand final. Coach Itudis team won the title after a victory over the Turkish giants, the Fenerbahce team in the semi-finals and Anadolu Efes team in the final. The title of European champion returned after three years in Moscow. The finals MVP is Will Clayburn, who was handed over by Andres Noćioni, the former player of the Baskonia. He will be the key player alongside Higgins in next season for CSKA. There are rumors that Higgins will leave the club, but will see.
Anadolu Efes surprisingly had a great season. Nobody expected that team will achieve so much this season, but they were so close winning Euroleague. Coach Ataman already started saving his key players for next season, Vasilije Micic, Dunston and Simon agreed contract extension, next step will be Shane Larkin who was without any doubt best player in this years F4. It will be hard to imagine that Efes team will repeat the same result as this year, especially next to the angry Fenerbahce and Real Madrid teams.
Real Madrid won third place that nobody has the interest to be played. The managed to beat Fenerbahce team. Those two teams were season favorites, but as you know its not always about quality, there is a bit of luck also. Fenerbahce team didn't have luck, 3 key players got injured a couple of days before the start of the F4 and experienced Efes team knew how to use that. Besides that, coach Obradovic will again create with no doubt best team in Europe and try to win next years Euroleague. There are rumors that they will try to sign Higgins from CSKA Moscow.
This small part concludes part about leagues favorites, now let's talk about other teams which you should take a look at. FC Barcelona started strong in this transfer market. Coach Pesic wants to put his team in the league's top position with new signings. His top mark is young center Milutinov from Olympiacos. The Greek team has huge problems after deciding not to play season finish in the domestic league because of the referees. They are suspended and put in a lower rank league, but they will still play Euroleague because they have "A" license. You should pay attention to the young team of Zalgiris Kaunas with coach Jasekivichius. Every season they manage to sign new young players with great potential. This year they sign Jock Landale from Partizan Belgrade, strong power forward with great offensive skills will help team Zalgiris in low post plays. Team Olimpia Milano every season sign a lot of quality experienced player, but they are struggling to make any notable result. This season is going to be probably the same for them, but let's wait and see.
After one year time out, Crvena Zvezda Belgrade is returning to Euroleague. Serbian team will try to make things hard for leagues favorites and maybe qualify for Top 16. Coach Tomic, who is ex Olympiacos player and assistant coach, returned Zvezda to this years Euroleague in great fashion. Team with hardcore fans and some experienced players like Perperoglu, KC Rivers and some new faces will try to survive next to big club names. Rumors say that Kuzmic will return from Real Madrid and also Kenny Gabriel will try his luck in Belgrade. The great season is ahead of us, let's enjoy.

I'm still recovering from my infusion and I'm also writing papers like there's no tomorrow, so please enjoy this guest post from Lydia. I'll be back later this week!
Hey everybody! My name is Lydia and I'm a life + style blogger over on my blog, wheretheprettythingsare.net. I am guest-posting for Kate today with a post all about staying healthy during the holidays. I always find it so hard to keep healthy while I'm around all the food (and holiday food is THE best). Whether you are like me with no diet restrictions or are gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo, etc., it's always hard!
Check out my blog or find me on social media: Instagram, Facebook, Twitter
1- Plan out your meals in advance: It's always easy to have a healthier breakfast/lunch/dinner when it's all planned out. Right a list of some healthy but tasty recipes and get the ingredients first thing in the week. Get everything you'll need for the week, that way you won't need to run to the grocery store too! For some recipe inspo, click here.
2- Give yourself a break: The holidays are the perfect time to gather with friends and feast eat. Which means, you don't totally have to cut out everything. Eat a triple-chocolate brownie with frosting or a burger from In-n-Out to stay sane and have fun during the holidays!
3- Work out only when it goes along with your schedule: During the summer and fall, I try to work out 6 times a week. However, once it gets to the holiday season, I like to spend my evenings watching Christmas movies or going to holiday parties! Which means, I don't get as much time to work out. I made a realistic goal a few weeks ago to work out a minimum of 3 times a week (Mon, Wed, Fri). Super realistic and it works with my schedule. I'd say work out a minimum of twice a week, and try to figure out the best time that you are available (maybe the days when you rarely have anything going on).
4- Have fun and get creative with your workouts: Since we're talking about working out, get creative with your workout routine! I love doing hot yoga during the winter since it gets so cold in Wisconsin (the best way to warm up) and it's such a perfect de-stresser I would highly recommend yoga! Another fun workout is zumba (a dance workout).How To Stay Healthy During the Holidays Click To Tweet
5- Stay hydrated: Perhaps the most obvious way to stay healthy is to drink lots and lots of water. I often found it hard to drink 50 oz. a day, but I got a cute water bottle and carried it around with me. With the winter coming, tea is another great option!
6- Bless up, rest up: Staying rested during the holidays is crucial! Just like drinking lots of water, getting enough rest is also really important. With all the (possible) stress that can surround the holidays, we sometimes end up only getting 4-6 hours a night which is a big no-no (aim for 8+ hours a night). Trust me, you'll notice a huge difference.
7- Limit your treat intake: I am a sugaraholic, I love eating sugary treats (cue 2 pounds of fudge). A little bit of sugar is totally fine, but eating all the treats in site is not the best idea! And, you definitely won't feel too great. I limit how many desserts I eat to 4-5 times a week, but if you're not quite as a sugar-lover as me, I'd suggest 2-3 desserts a week!
What are your tips for staying healthy during the holidays? Let us know in the comment section below! Come say hello on my blog or find me on social media: Instagram, Facebook, Twitter

Cotes de Beaune
The reds from the Cotes de Beaune are usually lighter than those from the Cote de Nuits. However The Cotes de Beaune is principally home to the finest Chardonnay wines in the world, including the villages of Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet.

Wow, how the Magic world has changed. Standard has been turned on its head as Khans of Tarkir and Fate Reforged are rotating out and we get Shadows over Innistrad. However, before we get a first hand look at what Constructed looks like, we all got a taste of what Sealed has to offer with this newest set at the Pre-release. I figure now is as good as a time as any to go over how I fared out there is wilderness, slinging spells, and generally getting my Magic on as well as any lessons I may have learned in the process.

"I'm in da club Hollerin', AY bebe, AY bebe..." .. aaand now Hurricane Chris will be stuck in your head the for day... gomen! (sorry in Japanese). Along with the lovely club anthem, I am sure you have a lot of other important things consuming your mind, leaving little room for being the creative director of your Summer wardrobe. Maybe Bebe Summer 2012 Lookbook can help you out?
While shopping around for some upcoming events, I came across some looks and pieces that I love. I am a fan of the brand, but Bebe isn't necessarily my "go-to" spot for shopping, however it is definitely a ONE-PIECE wonderland. Any Bebe dress, romper or separate can be jazzed up with some hoops, heels, or sandal and look Glam. Pretty much styling itself. Hey, less time wardrobing = more time on your Summer schedule and checking things off the mental to-do list. Not a bad mantra.
|My favorite Summer staple.. The ROMPER. I am loving the red, knee length look. One piece, piece of cake, that looks effortless and chic.
|Patterns, stripes and color blocking. One dress, few accessories and your ready.
|Dress up your shorts. Love the colors of these outfit makers. They would look glam even with a burn out tee.
|Crochet sweaters and swimsuits. My Summer beach Uniform. Would look great with Skinnies and a Bandeau as well.
