Wish Everyone Good Health.

A walk in the spring sunshine from Mitcham Common to Beddington Park in Sutton was a great success. Being a bit of a day-facto walking enthusiast, I attended this spring walk from Mitcham to Beddington on March 26.
This event was arranged to help promote what should hopefully become the Wandle Valley Country Park. This was part of an ongoing series of activities that reflect the diversity of the community while leveraging environmental awareness to demonstrate the potential for this restoration [...]

Walking is increasingly being rated as an excellent means of staying fit and healthy. It is natural form of exercise that we do every day to some extent. For those who consider it a form of exercise the risks of suffering an injury are low as long as you follow a gradual programme and don’t do too much too soon. All you need is a pair of comfortable shoes with adequate support and shock absorption and a watch with a [...]

To get anywhere, you need to know where you?re starting from and when it comes to weight loss that means giving yourself a basic fitness assessment.
This can be depressing for most people because the results confirm what they have been avoiding: They?re overweight, unfit, and at high risk of heart disease!
But these people a looking at it all wrong. Don?t get depressed, get focused!
This could be one of the biggest turning points in your life. You can get fitter, you [...]

Best home gyms
It isn’t always easy to find the best home gyms without a little trepidation. But have no fear as shopping through what are touted as the best home gym has been simplified.
No kidding, stop and think about what you want to accomplish, weight loss, toning, shaping and body building may be part of your goals. But how hard can it to lift weight or bend over. Maybe we’ve gotten a little carried away with what once was and [...]

In the U.S., over 80 million people participate in exercise walking. It is no surprise that Americans have made exercise walking their top sport. But, many exercise walkers end up with injuries to their feet because they do not take the appropriate steps to prevent foot problems. Working into a walking program gradually, with the right pair of shoes, can make the difference between spending time enjoying the outdoors, or spending time on the couch nursing a sore foot. Exercise [...]

I should start by saying my ADHD son is only ten, and the battle might start in earnest at any point, but so far we have not had major conflicts over taking his ADHD medicine. Twice he’s spit it out, both times within about a month at about 8.5 years old. Both times I invoked some mild punishment and sat him down for a talk, and it hasn’t happened since.
I have some tips that I think have helped in our [...]

There are many different causes of heel pain, but the most
common cause is plantar fasciitis (plan * tar fash* ee * I *
tis). If you experience a sharp pain in your heel when you
first step down in the morning, it is most likely due to plantar
fasciitis. This problem is a result of excess stress through a
long ligament type structure (the plantar fascia) in the
bottom of the foot. The excess stress causes tearing [...]

Here?s a simple but powerful meditation exercise you may enjoy. Teaching you the basics of meditation is beyond the scope of this blog entry (maybe someone can post a comment with a link to a meditation primer for those who?ve never done it), but if you?re already familiar with it, I think you?ll find this one interesting and valuable.
I didn?t learn this particular meditation from anyone else ? it?s just something I made up at one point and have been [...]

I?ve counseled many people from every background and led
workshops and lectures about self-empowering topics for
about 25 years. Over that time, I saw a need. Everyone was
searching. What they were looking for was unclear, many
times. But the search was on. While I could meet many of
their immediate needs, through counseling, they still needed
a source, or connection with who they really were.
This was not a religious pursuit, per se, but a spiritual
one. We all need [...]

Have you ever gone to your “weight loss” meeting and after the meeting made a b-line to a fast food restaurant with your fast food restaurant calorie book in tow? You know that you have a whole week before the next meeting … plenty of time to still lose some weight.
I’ve done that.
You seem to have momentarily forgotten about your resolve to shed those pounds, once and for all. If you can relate to the above scenario in which [...]
