Unlike many Personal Development or Self Improvement sites, I do not claim to be an expert, rather this site is a collection of my experiences and interesting articles and other resources I have found on my journey.

 
Health and Fitness-Software eBooks and Information Sites


In todays world it is not enough to take our health for granted. We must all take responsibility for our well being. We all know proper nutrition, exercise and enough sleep are what we need. Although it is easier said than done.

Busy schedules, fast food and just plain day-to-day life get in the way. How many working moms drag themselves home after a long day at work and prefer to pick up dinner on the way? Nothing against working moms. You have to give today's woman a lot of credit. Working, raising a family and running a household is not easy. Dads too are doing their share more today than in any other time in history.

Exercise is a must to good health. When you are tired you don't feel like exercising. Even though exercise gives you energy! Sound like a vicious circle. You're right. Begin exercising with a short walk and increase the distance a little every day. Walking is one of the best exercise program you can do. Just 20 minutes a day will increase your energy and help you sleep better at night.

After a while you could add golf, bowling, dancing or tennis to your schedule. This type of exercise is fun. You can share it with your family and friends. Which makes it even more enjoyable!

Stress is the quiet killer. You know we are all under some kind of stress. People have many ways of reacting to stress. While one person becomes stronger, another falls apart. Learning how to deal with stress is very important. Again, easier said than done. Stress can strip you of energy and seriously affect your health. What have you done to help yourself cope with stress?

We must not forget there is a wealth of knowledge just waiting for us to access it. Don't be in the dark about fat loss secrets, panic attack cures, quit smoking and many more tips for you. We all have access to the internet. Knowledge is just a click away.


 
Heartburn or Acid Reflux

Well we are getting into that time of year again - the party season where we eat and drink too much and for those of us who suffer the pain of heartburn or Acid reflux it can be a very agnonising time of year.

 

I used to suffer acid reflux quite a bit,

but a bit of searching the net and I found quite a few suggestions for helping relieve that burning in the chest feeling, and the loss of sleep due to it.

 

Basically I'm not going to write all about it here as I've already done that on the following 2 sites

Cheers and have a great "silly season"

 

 
How To Stop Having Problems

If you are like me you have probably lost a lot of sleep over the many problems that arise in your life. Sometimes, the problem seems too huge. I become immobilized by the fear. That leads to procrastination and guilt for my inactivity and Presto! My stress level goes through the roof.

Just thinking of the word "problem" is enough to raise my blood pressure.

That is the true power of words! What you put in your mind has an immediate effect on your metabolism. The mind and body are not opposites; they have always been inseparable parts of one amazing organism: You!

So, problems get in the way of positive constructive action. Problems seem bigger than you. They can be ugly and mean and so distracting. You could pass up wonderful opportunities to enjoy yourself because you are too wrapped up in your troubles. You may be living a dark future that probably won't happen. The present moments slip by unnoticed and that's not a good thing!

It's time to stop having problems. It's time to slay the Boogeyman under the bed! How do I do that Well, if you are willing to invest a little mental discipline, there is a very simple technique to follow.

Here it is:

Whenever you find yourself dwelling on some difficulty in your life, ask yourself: Is this a problem or a challenge Make the right choice. Choose to view it as a challenge.

A challenge is like a contest or a test. It brings out your competitive nature, it inspires action and most importantly a challenge is a contest you can win!

A Problem is 800LB of emotional baggage.

A Challenge is an Opportunity to enrich your life.

Remember what I said about the mind/body connection Which phrase makes you feel more uncomfortable: "serious money problems" or "financial challenges"

Whenever you hit the next bump in the road you have a choice: Fill your self with needless stress and anxiety and welcome a new "problem" into your life, or you can say-"Yes! I accept the challenge. I accept the opportunity to improve myself, to strengthen my self-confidence, to grow from the experience and banish fears of unexpected change."

Life is change. Change can be awkward sometimes. We like to stay with the familiar by nature. When we resist life's changes we plant the seeds of problems. If we face our challenges we find fewer things to resist. We find ourselves in the "flow" of life and not caught up in a snag.

This one simple word swap has brought me a bucketful of peace of mind. I get stronger with every obstacle I surmount.

This might work for you, If you try. The question is: Are you up for a challenge
