Taking Care of Yourself!

By Evelyn J. Mocbeichel

How much do we take care of ourselves and the lifestyle we may lead? This may seem like a simple question, but when you think about it, most of our time is usually spent running around taking care of someone or something else. What does being “healthy”

feeling 100% good, 100% of the time. Feeling good should include your mental, physical, and emotional state. How much time do most people spend on themselves each day?

what you want to do? This could be reading a magazine, talking a walk, soaking in a tub, or

NOTHING. Why do we feel almost “guilty” when we “waste” time watching an old movie on a rainy Saturday, or curling up with that novel we have been dying to read or going for a

bike ride? Most people neglect to make time for themselves and to use it as a ‘de-stress mechanism’, something we all need now and then. Water, nutrients, and posture are elements that make up the important factors to having a healthy body. How much water should we drink each day? Some experts use this formula, “Take your body weight and divide it in half. This halved number is the amount of ounces of water you should drink each day.” Drink your water about an hour before your meals rather than with it. When you drink water with meals, it neutralizes the body enzymes that are needed to breakdown your food and pass along the nutrients to the rest of your body. For young children, do not give them so

not want to eat their food because they are not hungry anymore.

What about dieting? Does it work? The best method of losing weight is to eat everything in moderation. To start, cut down on

best not to eat anything after 8 o’clock at night. If you are hungry, have fruit. Start your day with fruit instead of sugar-laden sweets such extra calories when you are hungry between meals, try to have low fat snacks available. Pack a plastic baggie or container with trail mix or baby carrot pieces to munch. Be creative. Make your own trail mix out of your favorite ingredients, using nuts, dried fruit, whole-wheat cereal pieces, etc.

Eating the proper foods, taking vitamins, getting regular physical checkups, practicing good posture, and getting plenty of physical exercise all help in raising the quality of our life. When we take one-step at a time towards a healthy lifestyle, we will reach our peak performance. Who can ask for a better reward than that?

LIBRA (9/23 - 10/23) Family quarrels may spoil your mood. You are currently finding it difficult to make new acquaintances with friends of your loved ones. Now it’s better to keep your head,and make a more informed decision later in time. Remember that in order to be successful in the business world,you need to roll with the punches,so keep your chin up. Do not boast of your earnings. Observe what is happening,make the right conclusions about your personal development. You may want to ignore urgent tasks to take a trip. Do not be tense and disappointed because of the delay of an important meeting that can mess up your plans. The planets promise news related to a close friend that will surprise you pleasantly. Try not to quarrel with the ones you love.

SCORPIO (10/24 - 11/22) Current circumstances may force you to argue and stand your point of view. Material problems because of your mistakes will spoil your mood. Rationality will bring you success. It is good to pause from time to time and reflect on what is happening. Tensions around you can intensify if you believe in unpleasant news fabricated by your enemies. Some deep and careful thought on the subject that concerns you may be of great value now. Do not spend,pleased with future earnings,that you can’t expect too soon. You are at a time that allows you realization of your plans. If you have been feeling rather down lately it’s time to try to arrange a trip. Be at peace with yourself.

LEO (7/23 - 8/22) It may be better to slow down instead of speeding up, as you don’t want to jump into anything too fast and then discover you have made a mistake. You will feel a tide of power. Deal with old family problems that are not subject to a new postponement. Sitting back and relying on your old standbys will eventually lead to your downfall. You should not negotiate loans. Analysis helps you reach the required standard in your relationships. Things do need to change,and burying your head in the sand won’t help. Be careful behind the wheel,and if you can avoid it – it’s best not to travel. Soon you will be in a good mood and achieve your goals. Do not turn your back on your principles.

CANCER (6/21 - 7/22) Push your agenda through to the top of the pile because it will get noticed and you will achieve success. Be patient and keep calm,do not be angry about things that are not in your control. Prepare for misunderstandings that will make you angry. Do not be fooled by the complaints of the people around you and do not help if they have not personally asked you to do so. You can travel and visit your relatives, but be careful behind the wheel. Whatever you decide to do,you could find that your plans get shifted and changed about,especially if you have decided to do something out of the ordinary. Planetary alignment suggest you have to work at doing a little psychoanalysis on yourself. Financial success is on it’s way. Tensions around you can intensify if you believe in unpleasant news fabricated by your enemies. In the evenings try enjoying peace of mind in the company of your close and loved ones.

By Frank J. Rich

In a world so full of information and activity, is it distraction? We know by experience that concentration is required if we are to accomplish our goals — personal and professional. But in spite of this, we are too easily turned away from the important things by the sheer force of distraction common to a busy life.

In the words of a Zen master, When walking, walk. When eating, eat.

Many organizations have found “quality” to be a

“Is what I’m doing at the moment the best use of my time, and am I serving quality in my approach?” It is only in the concentration we give to our principles that our practice

the characteristic behavior that focuses our energies on one thing at a time, no more than what science reveals the brain can achieve.

Two Types

Concentration may be divided in two — short-term concentration, that which is a focus on the moment — and long-term concentration, a focus on future moments. Both are important. Both are critical to

few are good at both or even one. The reason? It is not something we honor, not something we encourage in our children, in our education of them, in each other. We are far more likely to judge results than the a kind of bicameralism over right principles. We know them, but have less than optimal. Our focus, it would seem, is misplaced.

The ability to pay close attention to things of the moment, undistracted is a skill that can produce twice the output of others. Perhaps, even more.

distractions that sap our time and that derail our best intentions. The interruption of co-workers, crisis issues, road noise, an unregulated cell phone, nearby conversations, the inconveniences of an undisciplined inner focus, are examples of the “little” things that turn our attentions.

It’s in consideration of the things that cost us our focus that we are reminded of the old saw, “The measure of a man is the size of the thing that undoes him.” The fact is, the average person is unable to stick with a task for 10 minutes before losing himself to his own disquieting mental chatter.

Long-term concentration is a focus on a future goal that could be weeks, months or years away. It could be a college degree, a health or children’s college education, etc. This requires an ability to commit to and stay committed to a goal over the long haul. This kind of concentration requires that we know securely “why” we are applying ourselves to such an outcome. When we are unable to explain — logically and emotionally — why we want to achieve a certain goal we’ve set, we are not likely to

reach it. In fact, research suggests that the success rate is virtually zero. While our motivation may be little more than a matter of mental focus, we need to know where we are going and why if we hope to get there. Great accomplishments are made of these.

Such accomplishments are the results of small things — thought patterns, beliefs, and attitudes. Some are fortunate to have had the training that produces these attributes early in life. Others struggle through a lifetime in search of it. The good news is that “concentration” is available to all by a few simple measures.

Focus Tools

direction is no point at all.

• Know why you are doing what you are doing. Know the purpose in things. Form a model of a “purpose driven life.”

• Know who you are and how you’re going to get to where you’re going. Shakespeare had it right: We must endeavor to know ourselves, to know our emotional, intellectual, and physical responses, before we can hope to

• Live slow! It’s what produces the best results. We train, in school, in the workplace, long and hard to prepare for the achievement ahead. Why then do we return so quickly to expedience as the vade mecum of our McDonald’s society? Read more slowly, savor the words, their meaning together. Look up when walking — there’s a world around you that you haven’t noticed. Be patient with yourself and others. Give yourself the luxury of focus.

When you notice someone who is good at these things, honor them with a question about how they have achieved them. Watch how they deal with the endless stream of thoughts in their heads and still concentrate, about how they are able to narrow their focus gaining the increased productivity that obtains.

to shut their doors. They literally don’t have distracting thoughts while they are supposed to be concentrating on something else. Outside sounds and physical feelings don’t enter their conscious thoughts. Bright lights don’t bother them, extreme cold and heat don’t affect them, humidity isn’t a bother. In fact, when you have developed your mental skills to focus your mind, such extraordinary control over your environment is available to you.

The ability to do anything better and faster and for longer periods of us to go many hours without sleep and with little diminished awareness. In fact, awareness increases dramatically when in a high state of focus.

If you want to gain the ability to concentrate so completely in the moment, you can’t be disturbed by anything — or if you would like to be able to stick with a project or a dream for years — begin the focus techniques above and enjoy the results.
