10 Simple Holiday Eating Tips That Will Keep You Fit and Trim

By Dorthy Weatherbush

Much like the Christmas tree and the jingle bells, holiday parties are as much a part of this time of year as Santa Claus and reindeer. Although many people use this as an excuse to over indulge themselves, it doesn't have to be that way for you. Get ready, because you're about to discover the 10 best ways to eat during this holiday and actually loose weight.

10) One of the easiest and cheapest ways to silence your growling stomach is to drink enough H20. That's water for you non Chemistry majors. The best thing about water is that it fills you up fast and helps breakdown those naughty foods faster in your stomach.

9) Eat before you go! When attending the many holiday dinners and parties take the time to eat a healthy snack. When you do not go hungry, you will be less likely to over indulge.

8) Watch you portions, a healthy amount is about the size of your fist. For the holidays, trim that to a slightly smaller portion.

7) Never miss a meal. I realize this may sound strange but it is so true. Many people think they are doing themselves a favor by skipping lunch or breakfast because they feel they are saving room for the big dinner party that night. This is so far from the truth it is not even funny. Keep your daily routine and consider a doggie bag if you are too full by party time.

6) Change the recipe. Rather than giving up the foods you love, why not make the foods you love healthy. Did you know that by shifting one ingredient for a healthier one, you can take a formally unhealthy dish and turn it into a healthy alternative?

5) Get a workout during your normal holiday routine. When you go shopping, why not park a little further away from the font door to the store than you normally would? Between the extra walk and the carrying of those heavy packages, you'll build your endurance and strengthen your muscles as well.

4) Stick to your normal workout schedule. Many times, during the holidays, we feel like there is just not enough time and the workout is easiest to skip. Don't skip it!

3) Go to dinner with a plan; you know that there will be delicacies aplenty when you attend holiday functions. Plan ahead of time what you will eat and how much. For instance, you may allow yourself a piece of pecan pie but decide to forego any other sweets.

2) Add some weight training to your work out. Knowing that you will be consuming more calories this time of year why not add some weight training to the mix. Lean tissue burns more calories than fat.

1) Let loose and hang out. While this is a time for family and friends to celebrate each other, it can also become a time when we get burned out from trying to be all things to all people. Take some time for yourself and breathe. This is your time to rest as well as serve.

These are the top ten holiday eating tips that will help you burn more calories. Take a few or all of them and put them to work in your life this holiday season. Who knows maybe you will not need that New Year's resolution to lose weight after all.

Another Look At Chakra Meditation Therapy

By Nisal Karuiyaratna

According to the ancient Vedic thought, there are seven circles (Chakras) of energy referred to as energy wheels in the human body. These are present along the meridian of the body.

Certain mystical practitioners even believe the number of these wheels to be fourteen.

These begin at the lowest base of the body (thought of as either the base of the spine or the genitals) and extending in their order to a person's crown (tippy top of the head).

In between there are: the orange chakra of the womb or belly; the golden chakra of the solar plexus; the green chakra of the heart; the blue chakra of the throat; and the indigo chakra known as the third eye, on the center of the forehead. The base chakra is red, and the crown chakra is violet right above the head but as its circumference extends outward, away from the head, it turns whiter.

In addition to being associated with colors (wavelengths of light), the chakras are numbered in order one through seven, with the base chakra being number one.

The first of these chakras is responsible for our vitality, sexual and physical health.

The second chakra is responsible for all of our creative powers.

Chakra three is responsible for our will power and desires.

Chakra four at the heart commands our emotional energy that opens us up to giving and receiving love.

The fifth chakra is responsible for communicating and is the link between what we feel and what we think.

Chakra six influences a person's intuition, psychic powers and insights, also referred to as the sixth sense.

The seventh chakra is used to take us on astral voyages and connects us with cosmic awareness, some of which is what is captured and brought back down to the second chakra during artistic practices and which is also accessed on shamanic journeys.

When people focus on the energy of this seventh crown chakra they really are communicating with God.

The chakras spin in their natural state. If they are healthy then they will spin and will then provide you with the optimum energies you need. If however they become unbalanced they can not spin and you will therefore experience illness or sickness in one or more of the areas outlined.

The secret to health is that these chakras should be balanced. In case even one wheel is more active than others, the result can be addictions, neuroses, obsessive-compulsive disorders or unintentional cruelty.

Chakras can become unbalanced or clogged as a result of neglect or bad lifestyle. If your diet is bad, or you have a negative attitude toward sexual relations you will have problems with your first or root/base chakra. This is likely to lead to ill health and broken or difficult relationships.

If you start dabbling in things like black magic or even destructive negative thoughts about other people you are likely to unbalance or clog up the seventh crown chakra which will mean you are unable to connect with the higher cosmos and you are left feeling totally empty and fearful.

A freely spinning energy wheel will be characteristically flexible. The human mind has the power to receive good vibes and ward off bad and negative ones. It is just like a hand, which can open and close when required but if broken, it will not function. Similarly a healthy chakra will open and close as per the vibes it encounters.

Chakra therapy means basically that you focus your attention and concentration on each of the seven main chakras in turn. This should really be done on a daily basis.

Take each major energy category and at some point each day meditate upon how its aspects are manifesting-or not manifesting-in your life, and as you do this visualize your body's energy residing in that particular chakra. If you find your energy waning in any category, meditate on the steps you can take to make that category healthy and cleanse the related chakra.

Some people find that meditating on a gem stone the same color as the chakra wheel allows them to get a clear image in their mind of what actions they need to take to make it healthier.

Recent advances in audio technology has also made it possible to just listen to the particular frequency of each chakra which results in your own chakra resonating at that same frequency resulting in it automatically becoming balanced.

Quit Snoring Immediately

By Thomas Wilson

Do you have a snoring problem? If so, no doubt you, like most people who do, would love to be able to quit. Not only would you save yourself a lot of trouble, you would also help those who live with you once again get a good night's sleep. You will be happy to know that there are many little things you can adjust in your everyday life that just may make your snoring problem vanish.

Tips To Help You Quit Snoring

Since the reasons behind snoring are many, it is important to first of all determine what is the cause in your case. You can do so by seeing a medical professional or doing your own research. For instance, if you are overweight, you will most likely have a snoring problem. By changing your diet and increasing exercise, you can probably quit snoring.

Overweight people often snore due to extra fat around their neck that closes off their air passages. By losing weight this problem will disappear. There are also some tongue and jaw exercises you can do that will aid you in your quest to quit snoring. A strong jaw will make sure that your air passage stays unobstructed while you sleep.

The position in which you sleep may also have much to do with how much you snore. The worst position for a snorer is to sleep on your back. If you can accustom yourself to sleeping either face down or on your side, no doubt your snoring problem will be eliminated or at least greatly improved.

Since sleeping on your stomach or side may be difficult at first, you may need to come up with something that will make rolling over onto your back while sleeping impossible.

If none of the aforementioned easy fixes do the job, you may need to get professional medical help in order to achieve your goal to quit snoring. If you don't merely snore but also find yourself gasping for breath while you sleep, you may suffer from sleep apnea. This is not to be viewed lightly. Seek out the help of your family doctor who may be able to help you or send you to a specialist who can.

Not only is snoring frustrating, if you suffer from sleep apnea your life could actually be in danger. While it is possible to simply put up with snoring, do what you can to quit. If you see results, keep up what you're doing.

Solving Your Sinus Problems

By Keith Markensen

Don't you hate waking up in the morning to congestion, runny noses, and such? I do too. Most likely it's allergies that are causing this problem. Sometimes, though, it's not. It might get blamed on allergies, but sometimes it's something much closer to home. Dust and particles floating around your house could be the real culprit.

If you're not keeping your windows thrown wide open all year long, you're house has buildup that can cause particles which irritate your sinuses. These constant barrage of particles and junk floating in the air takes its toll on your sinuses, especially during the deep breathing of sleep.

So how do you prevent this? Home air filters are the easiest way and can be quite effective if used properly. These great little machines will pull air into them, filter out the bad stuff, and emit only clean, breathable air afterwards. They're great!

Not only do they clean the air, purifying it and clearing most of the particles and ugliness out of it, but they also clear a lot of the floating dust particles from the air too. This means your furniture and house will look much cleaner with less effort from you. Added bonus!

You, your pets, and your family are all shedding skin, hair, and more all day every day. Sounds ugly, but it's true. These tiny flakes of skin fall to the ground, onto furniture, etc. and worse, make a place for "dust mites" to live. Many people are allergic to dust mites and don't even know it. Nor are they aware that the mites live in their homes.

Air filters won't cure this, but they sure will cut down on it. Vacuuming and cleaning or using hepa filters regularly will do the rest. While you can't eliminate dust mites from your home one hundred percent, you can cut them down to numbers so small they're insignificant.

As soon as you start using an air filter, you'll see results that will make you feel better about your home. In a few days, your sinus problems will be gone for good and you'll feel healthier and happier. Over time, you'll also see that your dust is lower, requiring less cleaning from you, and more!

Air filters are a great addition and no home should be without one.

Picking A Good Wrinkle Cream: Helpful Tips

By Jen Hopkins

Almost everybody wants to maintain an attractive, young appearance, especially women who place an even higher value than men on their physical beauty. For centuries, women have been using anti-wrinkle cream with success, and the demand for it is continually increasing.

Many centuries of use has proven that anti-wrinkle creams really do work. If they were not effective, it would be unlikely that they would be as popular as they are today.

Winning Your Woman Back Is Not Easy

By Sara Summers

After your breakup, you keep asking yourself "How Can I Get My ExGirlfriend Back?" and think about everything that you could have done differently. You even make plans writing apology letters and other things that might be able to help you get your girl back.

You should be aware that you can never really tell the real reasons behind your breakup. Most often, it is only useless to lose all your energy trying to figure out what really went wrong. Do you really know what went wrong in your relationship?

If you want to get your girl back, the main strategy is to forget about your relationship for a while, and focus your energy into your hobbies or something else. Have fun and forget about women in general. Go away for at least two months, enjoy your vacation and make changes in your life. Taking some time away from her will work wonders. It will allow you to make gradual changes in your life. After a few months, you will get a much better idea of how you want to proceed with your relationship with your girl.

Be honest to yourself. Do you still want to get back together with your ex girlfriend or you are more interested in moving on with your life? If you still want to get her back, then you should try to figure out her feelings about you.

However, do not try to beg your exgirlfriend to get back with you. It will only scare her away. Do not insist yourself. If you have been apart from her for some time, she is probably missing you as much as you are missing her. Be a little hard to get but do not over do it. Just try to show her that you are doing fine without her. This will make her rethink things between the two of you.

Remember, if she is really meant for you, she will get back with you. Love is patient. You can also use specific strategies to win her back. Such strategies will be really effective and help you to plan your next move. One of the highly recommended getting back together guide is "The Magic of Making Up".

Are Qigong Books As Good As Personal Instruction?

By Kathy Hunter

If you are reading this then you have already made the important decision, you are looking at qigong as a way to improve your life. Whether you are researching qigong as a way to improve your physical health or mental well being it doesn't matter, what matters is that you have taken the first step.

The big question when someone starts studying Qigong (or most other natural health processes) is "Will books on Qigong be enough?". Books are much cheaper than personal instruction in just about anything, but are qigong books going to be as much help as a personal qigong teacher?

Whether you choose to use books on qigong or find a personal teacher who will guide you through the gradual stages of qigong training depends on many things. Do you have a qigong teacher in your area, being the main one but of course there are other reasons that you may choose to learn from books rather than from a personal teacher.

When you read your qigong book will affect how effectively you learn from it, reading in bed at the end of the day may be the easiest but it isn't going to be the time when you feel like jumping up and exercising. It is ok to read in bed, but just make sure that you go and re-read the section before you go and try any of the exercises.

While going to qigong classes would be great there is no reason why you can not progress perfectly well at home using books to learn qigong. Learning qigong is the same as learning anything else, start at the beginning and allow each lesson to add to your knowledge. It is vital that you learn the basics before you venture onto more difficult lessons.

Stop! I know it is tempting to just flip past the first few lessons in the book, I mean who really needs to follow every word.. You do! Well you do if you are hoping to get the best results possible from your books on qigong. Learning qigong is a process and you need to follow the instructions set out in the book rather than trying to jump ahead to the bits that look more interesting.

Your qigong book should become part of your life, don't just throw it into a corner after your time reading it and putting the lessons into practice. Put the book somewhere you can find it easily so you can pick it up if you find you have some unexpected quiet time available. Make qigong a part of your live and it will serve you well.

There are a number of factors that control the wages for a dental assistant, these include their experience and the business office location. Before we research all the components that determine the Earnings of a dental assistant, let's look at the responsibilities that a dental assistant would be needed to carry out.

There are a number of duties that a dental assistant will carry out, these include laboratory responsibilities, patient care and clerical work. Quite simply, they are members of a professional team that assist dentists with examinations and treatments. A dental assistant aids patients to become relaxed and comfortable while waiting for their dental work to begin.

Working chair-side dental assistant features more tasks like handling instruments and materials to the dentist and drying out the patient's mouth with sucking equipment during treatments. Blending filling chemical compounds and taking impressions of patient's teeth can also be carried out by qualified dental assistants.

More and more people are living longer so our senior population can help with the potential employment opportunities for dental assistants. Another component leading to the high demand for dental services is that people are keeping their natural teeth longer.

All You Need To Know About Sazon Seasonings

By Ferdinand Okeke

Flavorers are mixtures of herbs, spices and condiments meant to flavor and boost the taste of your food. Experts say that seasoning and flavoring ones food is not exactly the same thing if we were to be more precise in definition. According to them salt should not be considered as having seasoning qualities because all it does is improve the flavor of the meat you are cooking. On the other hand, pepper and basil are to be included in the category of seasonings because they transfer a certain flavor the food you are cooking.

In case you can not find sazon seasoning in your local superstores then you can simply buy bulk herbs and spices and prepare your own mixture at home. The ingredients used in this seasoning can boost the flavor to more or less spicy food for the dish you are preparing. For instance, black beans and rice rely on the sazon seasoning which requires that you add to the dish olive oil, chopped onions, chopped bell peppers, oregano and paprika, salt, black and cayenne pepper. Black beans and rice is a specific Mexican dish and sazon seasoning is quite recommended in order to obtain the original taste. Other dishes for which you can use sazon seasoning are chicken cutlets, crock pot roast, kidney bean and rice, and so on. The list can go on.

Just like any other flavorer, sazon is for those who want to make their meals a wonderful experience. People like eating and trying foreign cuisines and this is no longer restrained because of the space and distance factor. If you want Latino taste, then all you need is sazon seasoning which is a whole lot cheaper than buying a plane ticket to Spain or Mexico.

Fish dishes are also very common, although today much of the fish is imported since the fisheries of the Mediterranean Sea are no longer what they used to be. Seafood is still prominent in many of the standard Mediterranean dish recipes. It is quite apparent that certain types of meats and fruit or vegetables, as it is the case with Mediterraean cuisine, ask for specific/typical seasoning, in this instance, mediterannean seasoning. Mediterranean foods and dishes include barbecue or grilled meats, pita bread, hummus and falafel which normally ask for special seasonings which are to be found in the area of Mediterannean seasoning obviously.

Celestial seasoning tea production dates back to 1969. In Aspen, Colorado it all started with collecting herbs from the Rocky Mountains and using them to prepare tea. This action was led by Mo Siegel and his friends who later decided to make their own shop in Boulder. Whatever came after is only the logical course of events related to a growing business. The celestial seasoning tea became popular all throughout North America because they have created many categories and types of teas meant to suit an entire population.

Wrinkle Cream Reviews: Which One Is The Best?

By Samatha Jackson

Wrinkle creams are considered good health and beauty investments. Generally these types of creams are sold in drug stores, and their prices may vary. However, there are some creams that do not contain the ingredients which are necessary for actually treating wrinkle damage. Before consumers buy one, they should first need to read wrinkle cream reviews, for them to easily spot which product or method works best in treating this condition.

Buyers need to first check on wrinkle cream reviews before undergoing a costly wrinkle-reducing regimen. Research indicates that around 87 percent of Americans do online research before deciding on which product to buy. Because most wrinkle creams cost from around fifty dollars a month, one needs to do a thorough analysis before deciding which one to buy. Reading the opinions of others helps to identify which product is best, and which to avoid. Then again, verifying a product review's truthfulness lies on how you find it, and there's an art to checking this out on a wrinkle cream review.

Beware of Official Product Websites - It's a fact that most cosmetic Websites have a section wherein readers can view positive comments and feedback regarding their product. With most wrinkle cream sites online, you'll most probably never see any negative commentary from users. When you read through the reviews, keep in mind that these opinions or feedback may be biased, and may not reflect the actual views of the product's users.

Lean Toward Reviews That Give You Details - Wrinkle cream reviews that show ample product information are regarded as good Websites. The product review should accurately explain how the cream was used, what the actual results are, and how it worked. This type of review would surely be a more reliable source of information than those which simply post user's opinions. Those who read this review definitely should be more likely to follow the exact directions, understand the time needed for producing results, and make a balanced assessment of the product in light of their personal skin concerns and of the opinions of others as well.

A wrinkle cream review like this can be found on skin-care Websites who profit from their loyal following of satisfied customers. The owner of this site is fully aware that if the reviews are negative, then they would definitely have to contend with lots of returns.

Reading A Review Series To Properly Compare Results - Reading reviews in a series by numerous users should allow you to effectively compare how each individual used the product, as well as on how they responded to the feedback of others. In the end however, you would need to render your own judgments. However, the good thing about reading wrinkle cream reviews is that, you would be more equipped with the information needed to buy the right one.

Is There a Link? Coffee and Hypertension

By Christian Goodman

I love coffee! So much so that I enjoy a cup of Starbucks almost every day. Is this bad for my health? Some people say so.

A friend recently told me to "watch out," while at Starbucks the other day as I drank my coffee because her doctor told her that coffee can contribute to high blood pressure, or hypertention.

I wondered to myself what advice the doctor gave to my friend about food intake, alcohol intake and smoking. All three of these things my friend does tend to partake in to excess.

I had to assume the doctor stressed to my friend that smoking, alcohol and being overweight are all high contributors to her increased blood pressure, as there is considerable evidence that these things do contribute to high blood pressure. But coffee?

I have read no studies where it states that there is a causal link to coffee and hypertension.

Some studies have shown that drinking coffee does raise one's blood pressure slightly, but only temporarily. In fact, these same studies have shown that over time, this slight increase in blood pressure is reduced.

What some studies have shown is that coffee can temporarily raise blood pressure but that is all. In fact, studies have also shown that over time, this temporary increase in blood pressure is reduced.

Researchers are starting to notice that the reason coffee is so often associated with the actual contributors to hypertension (cigarettes, and obesity) is because many people tend to combine drinking coffee with these bad behaviors.

The arguement that drinking coffee causes high blood pressure, based upon the above partnering of behaviors, is just plain false.

This combination of behaviors is where I'd like to see more research. I've read incredible stories about people who switched from coffee to green tea and see all sorts of positive changes, including lowered blood pressure. What wasn't expounded upon was whether or not they gave up their cigarettes and pastries as a result.

What I can say is that if you know that coffee is your trigger to indulging in other, proven contributors to high blood pressure and you truly can't do one without the other, then yes, perhaps you should consider switching to a beverage that you don't associate with these bad behaviors.

Regardless of the reason for high blood pressure, my High Blood Pressure Program does provide amazing results. The exercises in the program are easy but effective. So effective, in fact, that people who have suffered from high blood pressure for years have lowered their blood pressure with this completely natural remedy.

If you suffer from being overweight as well, I would suggest my Weight Loss Breeze Program.
