LIFESTYLE IMPROVEMENT TIP # 1—THINK POSITIVE

“I'd love everyone to commit to a year of living beautifully. Take a few minutes every day to Relax, Think Positive, and Be the YOU you want to be. Because this has a big effect not only on how successfully you live your life but, experts say, on how long you may be living that life.

“We can't influence every little thing—but stats show that thinking positive  works. Science says so! Positive statements help challenge and overcome self-sabotage and negative thoughts. When you repeat and believe—you change (and because I love Re words… you are refreshed, rejuvenated, renewed… etcetera!)” Maxine

LIFESTYLE IMPROVEMENT TIP # 2—TAKE PLAYTIME


Play is important for adults and many of us don't take the time to do it. Between To Do lists and the sheer number of calls on our time, we go from morning to night keeping busy and rarely allow our playful side to show or memories of happy childhood times to peep through. Yet health experts say it's essential to our physical and mental health to let go of busyness once in a while. Allowing a few minutes for fun means you're immersed in the moment—and is considered an active form of mindfulness that alleviates stress, worries, anxiety, and depression.
