Health:

Science is finding more truth to the wisdom that food heals, but mostly they are finding that food is one of the best illness preventatives. Recent research has shown that cabbage might be an anti breast cancer food.

Wealth:

Save on your power bills by opting with your service to cycle through your utility use. They generally will turn off your heating system for a brief time giving you a discount on your bill.

Diet:

Not a breakfast eater. Have something even if it's just a smoothie with yogurt and fruit or a protein bar. It will keep you from grabbing a fast food, high calorie snack before lunch.

No time to workout? It's been found that giving yourself short bursts of exercise as you go about your day such as swinging your arms when walking from one place to another, can be useful as an exercise routine.

Warm, mushroom brown eye shadow looks good on all skin shades. You can wear it from day to night and it always looks just right.

Labor Day's Quick Tips 4 U

Health:

Make a list of everything you know that promotes good health. (Read some of these earlier tips to help you.) Put a check mark next to any you do regularly. Circle any that you don't do very often. Put an X next to any you never do. Now spend a day or two thinking about what you don't do to be healthier and ask yourself why!



Wealth

Experts say you should save 10% of all your income regularly. Have that amount deducted from your checking account and put into a savings or investment account. When you get more income, increase the amount transferred. After a few months you won't notice the decrease in spendable income.

Many national corporations as well as more than 1 million families have benefited from Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University.

Diet:


Start your meal with a salad. Keep salad fixings crisping in the frig. Add a low fat dressing or use a little bit of olive oil and lemon juice and fresh herbs. Drink a glass of vegetable juice with the salad and you will have healthfully cut your appetite, and increased your servings of vegetables.  Yeah You.

Fashion and Style:

Wearing clothes too big will make you look bigger. A belt or scarf hanging down toward your legs will make them look longer. A solid color outfit is slimming.


Exercise:

Don't have time for a full workout? Incorporate it in your day. Stretch when dressing; squat when picking something up off the floor; reach for the ceiling anytime you are waiting; swing your arms when walking; commit to working out no matter how much time you have.


Beauty:No time for makeup. Tint your moisturizer with your foundation and smooth on. While waiting for it to dry, put on two coats of lipstick, touch your lips with clean fingers and blot on cheeks for blush. Sweep eyes with shadow and put on two coats of mascara. You are on your way and looking good.





Spirit:Make it a habit to congratulate yourself for making the effort to be the best you can be. Even if you don't feel you've done your best, congratulate yourself anyway and soon, very soon you'll be doing your best every day.

July 19 - Quick Tips

Health:
Repeating.  Next time you have a blood test, ask your Dr. to include a C-Reactive Protein test. CRP.  Also ask him why you should have your inflammation level checked.  Recent research indicates that it may promote chronic diseases including heart disease. It is probably more important than Cholesterol.

Wealth:
Leave the ATM card at home.  It is much too easy to pull out that card for even a small item that you see in a Convenience store or when eating out.  Carry a small amount of cash, as much as you budgeted for the day.  You do budget, don't you?


Nutrition: (replaces 'diet' in all new Quick Tips)
Believe it or not frozen veggies might be more nutritious than fresh.  They are frozen fresh from the garden patch, really.  Also I've found them much tastier than the ones I leave in the crisper a bit too long.

Exercise:
Sign up for a dance class.  Purchase a good exercise video and invite a few friends in for a couple routines and some good friendly chatter.

Style:
Sales, sales, sales.  Retail, brick and mortar stores as well as Internet sites are making room for Fall styles arriving even as I wrote this.  Hurry to the site, of your choice and snag up some of those great bargains on summer clothes.  You still have time to wear them and they will be like new next summer.

Inspiration:
"You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them."

Health:
Incorporate celery and green peppers, proven memory boosters into your daily food plan. They contain high levels of luteolin that studies show can block inflammation linked to memory loss.
Wealth:
Not close to your bank's ATM and wants to omit ATM fees? There's always something you can use or might need at a nearby grocery or drug store where you can get cash back without fees.
Diet:
Cut 100 calories by mixing your juice with seltzer, low sodium club soda. I've mixed my juice half and half with no calorie iced tea.
Exercise:
I've found it much easier to do three 10 minute walking sessions a day, sometimes I do two 15 minutes-I found once I start I get inspired to go longer. It's the getting started that's hard.
Style:
Slip a ring around a long, stylish scarf, draped down the front. Tie a knot below the ring to secure.
Spiritual:
Allow yourself the opportunity to live the life you desire. Do not set limitations on yourself that are based on someone else's negativity.

Six Steps to Natural Health

First Time Readers!
If this is the first time you are reading this blog, be sure to check out previous posts listed at the bottom of this page.

A brief explanation of Why I write this 'Quickie Tips 4 Life" Blog.
I started researching health because I wasn't healthy. The same is true of the other subjects in this blog:wealth; style; diet; exercise; and beauty. I've learned so much reading articles and magazines, and web sites, that I decided I wanted to capsulize it and share the info with others. I hope you will subscribe to the feed, become a regular viewer, comment, and add your tips.

Health:

Beans are known for their cancer fighting antioxidants. They are also packed with fiber which binds with toxins, creating a broom sweeping them out of your system. 1/2 a cup a day is recommended. Hummus with raw vegetables is an excellent way to get them.

Wealth:

Lower utility bills by switching off your PC when not in use.

Exercise:

If you’re pressed for time, break up your activity sessions into manageable chunks. For example, take four 5-minute “mini” walks each day or get up 10 minutes earlier and do some simple stretches.

Beauty:

Lip liner creates a waxy base that will hold your lip color. After lining lips, dab liner lightly on lips and follow with color.

Style:

Color jeans are the hottest item this season. Find them in red, blue, green and even yellow.

Spiritual:

Bring more joy in your life with joy filled thoughts.

Health:
Eat more fish. Find quick and easy recipes to prepare fish. It's good for your health.

Wealth:
You don't have to be rich to take advantage of a financial counselor. Use one to help you become rich with sound budgeting and investing advice.

Diet:
If you can eliminate food containing high fructose corn syrup, you can cut back on calories. Check labels, check labels, check labels. High fructose corn syrup is a non food, it's a sweetner and you don't need it in your daily diet.

Beauty:
Makeup for hot days. Use blotting papers to absorb excess oil and moisture (find them at drug stores). Apply powder first. A light dusting before applying makeup helps models stay fresh under heavy lights.

Exercise:
Walk around the track at your local high school. Play tennis on local courts. Start a walker's group at the mall. Most of all, be safe. Walk with a partner. Let family or friends know when and where you are walking and when you expect to be home. Don't take safety for granted.

Spiritual:
Keep a book of inspirational writings beside your bed or most used chair. Subscribe to a inspirational newsletter on the Internet.
