EDITOR

NOTE

Eleanor Roosevelt said, “Do one thing every day that scares you.” With school out and the kids home for summer, I think this is an amazing mantra for the month of June. Doing something that scares you is something our kids do almost every day as they explore the world.

As we grow older, however, let’s be honest: How often do you find yourself facing something you fear head on?

For me, the things I fear are often more silly than scary.

Often, I find myself avoiding jumping off a cliff because I’m “afraid” of what others might think.

This month’s issue of The Grand Season Family is about exploring the world around you. It might be time to take the kids on a road trip to Northern Arizona to get out of the heat and explore the magic of the Grand Canyon.

Or, perhaps, it’s time to explore those things inside your mind you’ve been too busy to flesh out. Maybe your date night is caught in a rut and you need to implement some new ideas to grow your relationship.

If so, you’re in luck! Inside this issue, we’ve got articles to help you grow personally, ideas to spark a great road

trip to Flagstaff and even some amazing ideas to make your date nights more enjoyable.

Whatever you have planned for the month of June, I hope you and your family can enjoy more time doing the “want-to’s” and less time doing “have-to’s.” Thank you for supporting the businesses that advertise in The Grand Season Family.

Happy Father’s Day to all of the dads who may be reading this.

I hope each of you have a great month and step outside your comfort zone to face a fear that may be holding you back!

Enjoy your journey!

STRETCH YOURSELF Try something new this summer

A season of suffering is a small assignment when compared to the reward. Rather than begrudge your problem, explore it. Ponder it. And most of all, use it. Use it to the glory of God. –Max Lucado

Aaah, summer….that long anticipated stretch of lazy, lingering days, free of responsibility and rife with possibility. It’s a time to hunt for insects, master handstands, practice swimming strokes, conquer trees, explore nooks and crannies, and make new friends.

–Darell Hammond

To explore different parts of yourself and different emotional lives...not to hide from who you are but to actually explore who you are.

–Ian Somerhalder I just think you can’t shut your life off to just, you know, one thing. You gotta be openminded. Explore things. Feed your artist.

–Antoine Fuqua A question is a pursuit, an invitation to envision and explore a series of possibilities, to struggle and empathize and doubt and believe. The question moves, whereas our sense of what an answer is can often be static, a stopping point.

–Tracy K. Smith

We have an unknown distance yet to run, an unknown river to explore. What falls there are, we know not; what rocks beset the channel, we know not; what walls ride over the river, we know not.

Ah, well! We may conjecture many things.

–John Wesley Powell

Fear is a question: What are you afraid of, and why? Just as the seed of health is in illness, because illness contains information, your fears are a treasure house of selfknowledge if you explore them.

–Marilyn Ferguson We must go beyond textbooks, go out into the bypaths and untrodden depths of the wilderness and travel and explore and tell the world the glories of our journey.

–John Hope Franklin

The basis for all human relationships and where we derive our greatest strength and power, trust is single-handedly the most powerful source of positive energy and, once in place, unlocks a freedom and peace to explore.

YOU

TAKE A STEP Out of your comfort zone

Sometimes what keeps us from getting what we want in life is our reluctance to change our routines and habits.

Whatever it is–you can break out of these patterns and create positive change. Here are some ways to step out of your comfort zone and into greatness:

Face a fear you have

Do you have a fear that’s been hanging around awhile? Does it come to mind and then go dormant for lack of pushing yourself? Think of that one fear that may be holding you back from your potential and set a goal to tackle it in the next three months.

Do what scares you

Eleanor Roosevelt said, “Do one thing every day that scares you.” How powerful would that be to make a conscious effort to do what scares you? What would open up? Start out by making a list of three things at the beginning of the week and challenge yourself to do each one during the week. Make it fun and see what good things transpire.

Make a bold move

10

Sometimes we just need to throw our hats over the wall and take a big risk for big rewards. The first step is to set a goal that is specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-limited. Then create a plan with action steps.

Now take one small action The Grand Season family

June 2018

every day towards your goal, or at least once a week.

Have tough conversations

“A person’s success in life can usually be measured by the number of uncomfortable conversations he or she is willing to have,” says author Tim Ferris. Having a conversation with a friend, loved one or co-worker about something that bothers you in the relationship is one of the most difficult and courageous things to do.

Try something new

A way to step out of what is familiar is to explore new and different things.

You can start by creating a bucket list. A list where you write down all the experiences you would like to do in your lifetime like travel to certain places, run a marathon, do yoga, write a book, play an instrument, ride a zip line, become an entrepreneur.

This bucket list is a great way to help you think of new ways to step out of your comfort zone. www.grandseasonfamily.com

KIDS

LEFT OUT? Ways to connect with your kids

At one point or another, all parents fear that they aren’t connecting with their children the way they once imagined. Your desire to connect shows you care, but remember, as your children move toward independence, they begin by creating a healthy distance from their parents. While this transition is hard, if you allow your teens the freedom to explore—they’ll be back with a stronger and healthier respect for you and your relationship.

Talk (and listen) to them

The most basic way to connect is to talk to them. Tell them about your day and ask about theirs. It’s important for people to feel like the person they are talking to cares about what they have to say. Don’t expect your kids to tell you everything about themselves in one sitting.

Take an interest

Sometimes just talking doesn’t work. It may be a good idea to consider doing something else together. If your child likes to play video games, ask for the second controller. Just try not to seem judgmental about their hobbies. If they aren’t hurting anyone, then you shouldn’t be concerned. If they start to feel that you don’t appreciate what they love, they will start to push you further away.

Find a new hobby

You may find that you simply have no current interests in common with your child. If that’s the case, you can talk to them about finding something new for the two of you to do together. Look for opportunities to do something that neither of you have done before.

Guilt is not a weapon

Guilt is a cheap trick that will only cause your children to resent you. Make it clear that you want to spend time with them, but don’t try to make them feel bad if it doesn’t work out right away.

It may take a few tries, but eventually they’ll give you a chance.

Don’t get discouraged

Raising kids is a rough journey. It may seem that no matter what you try, you’re still feeling just as distant from them as when you started. Don’t give up.

Remember, it’s your job to love your kid—not theirs to love you. Each stage of parenting is very different, and as your children grow, your relationship will change. The key is to remind your child you’re interested, invested and involved.

LOVE

DATE NIGHT

Rekindle your romance!

All the relationship advice books say you’ve got to have scheduled date nights with your partner to keep your romance alive. What they don’t say is, the key to having a dynamic date night is to keep it interesting—and find ways to grow your relationship while exploring new things together. Try these date night ideas to rekindle your romance:

Surprise date

Every marriage needs the surprise date. I suggest each partner choose one date each month to plan fully without letting the other partner know.

The surprise date gets to be a really special gift from the planner to the other partner.

Adventure date

Get out and get wild! Try something adventurous with your mate. Do a mud run or a scavenger hunt, hit the shooting range or paintball. If you have it in your area try bungee jumping, ATV riding or a ropes course. Check Groupon for ideas and discounts!

New to both date

It’s so much fun to discover something new together. Try a new restaurant, or type of cuisine. Head to a nearby town you haven’t explored yet (or try one of the ideas from the adventurous date). Maybe try a sport or activity neither of you have experienced before.

Competitive date

14

The competition date is always fun but can be dangerous if you’re highly competitive people. Go bowling, head to the gym or for a hike, play mini golf… anything that you can have a friendly challenge. If it’s an at-home date, whip out the cards or chess set. Good luck, and may the odds be ever in your favor!

The Grand Season family

Nostalgia date

Have you ever recreated your first date?

Go to places you went when you first started seeing each other. If you now live in a different area you can wear something you would’ve worn, and play music you were listening to back then.

Other date night ideas:

• Take dance lessons.

• Create a playlist and take a long drive.

• Make your favorite dinner together.

• Volunteer with Habitat for Humanity.

• Invite friends over to play Cards Against Humanity.

• Stay the night at a resort you’ve always wanted to visit.

• Plan a scavenger hunt.

• Visit a vineyard and learn about local wines.

Electronic Wizards Keeps You Connected

by Pamela Holechek “Smart” technology owns the electronics highway. Most consumers want to cruise on this road, yet some can’t navigate the merge lane.

No worries. Help is but a phone call away!

The key to getting out of “park” and being with the innovative flow is easy. Turn right to the tech savvy experts at Electronic Wizards.

“Our family-owned company celebrates 25 years of service this year,” says Keith Brown, President of Electronic Wizards, who took the lead and started his own business in 1993, after working for other communication giants. “I first got my start in electronics when I became a radio and phone technician for the United States Marines Corps in the 1980’s.”

Keith says those in the industry merely see evolving changes, not the seemingly drastic jumps in technology that may overwhelm potential buyers.

“Our company was created to absorb all those technology headaches for our clients,” assures Keith.

“We have a ‘White Glove Service’ that takes care of everything, even guiding the client before they make a product purchase.

“I work with various electronic distributors across the Valley and can usually get the best buy on Samsung®, Sony®, LG® and Sharp®. If a buyer wants a high-definition, QLED or OLED TV, we can help them with the latest setup of a 50-inch or larger TV. “We also will pick the TV up, deliver it, unbox it, put it together, hang it on

Some of the wizards are Chad, Corey and Keith Brown. the wall, hide all the wiring,” continues Keith. “We do custom remote controls, where the client only has to push one button on the remote to watch whatever they want. Then we can program other systems to also work on this universal remote. We can even haul away their old TV.” The No. 1 call to Electronic Wizards for service, however, doesn’t concern new TVs. It has to do with the lowering of escalating cable and satellite TV bills—and they have a solution.

“We sell, mount and connect a high-definition TV antenna, starting at $299,” Keith says about their discounted special. “We install these in the attic or on the roof. It’s a compact, 2-anda-half-foot version of the traditional antenna. Once it’s hooked up, it delivers as many as 95 local channels, at no monthly cost. Next, we can set streaming up, over the Internet, to receive

cable channels on all the home networks.”

Staff technicians can perform a complete electronics review for a $49 consultation fee (regularly $99). During this expert inspection, further savings may be found and greater entertainment options may be available.

Other Electronic Wizards offerings include indoor and outdoor sound systems, home theaters, patio TV systems, computer and printer installation and service of slow PC or Mac computers, phone systems, surveillance cameras, intercom systems such as Ring®, connecting Shaw) Direct satellite receivers, and putting electronics in RVs. The company’s services also cover commercial settings. Staff currently oversees the electronics of one of Arizona’s largest banks and for a popular ‘50s-style restaurant.

Keith says once someone becomes an WEST VALLEY STAR

Electronic Wizards client, they are set for life for great service. Here’s an example: “I had a customer call me on Super Bowl Sunday,” Keith relates. “He was having a party and the game was just about to start when the TV went out. Within a couple of minutes on the phone, I had him fixed and the party was saved.”

Working with Keith, one may notice his sense of humor. When asked if he lives in a “smart house,” he replied, “There are differing levels of smart, but compared to most, it’s smart. Are there smarter homes? Yep.” There is no job too small or too big, or one that Electronic Wizards can’t put into understandable terms. Call 623-815-7575, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., MondayFriday to set a consultation.

BUCKET LIST

DO YOU HAVE ONE?

Here are the most popular items on people’s bucket lists.

1. See the Northern Lights

6. Learn to Play an Instrument

The spectacular sights of the aurora borealis leave countless viewers breathless every year.

Have a penchant for air guitar? Why not learn to actually play one of your favorite tunes? On top of being insanely fun, learning an instrument is good for your brain.

2. Run a Marathon

Fancy a goal of heroically crossing a finish line, arms raised overhead in triumph? You aren’t alone. Runner’s World would back you up, writing that a marathon “can be a 26.2-mile-long block party.”

7. Snorkel at the Great Barrier Reef

3. Take an African Safari

USA Today recommends that, when choosing an adventure, you consider the sights, natural surroundings and animals you’d like to see.

4. Write a Story

Snorkeling at this awe-inspiring Australian natural treasure is on the bucket lists of many who want to enjoy warm blue waters and ocean life that can’t be found anywhere else.

8. Skydiving

The adrenaline high produced by this activity is no joke. According to a recent study, skydiving has an affect on the brain that elicits euphoria.

Think your life would make for a riveting memoir? Consider attending a weekly writer’s workshop one day a week and learn how to get your thoughts down on paper.

9. See the Pyramids of Giza

5. Walk Along the Great Wall of China

Ranking high on many a bucket list is a visit to Egypt’s Pyramids of Giza.

Believed to be more than 4,000 years old, these ancient tombs are a majestic sight to behold.

This item topped bucket lists for 40 percent of the people surveyed by the Daily Mail. Not only is this goal popular, it’s as old as they come.

Several of the walls were built as early as 7th century B.C.

AAA SENIOR PLACEMENT AZ A Message from Sue Royer “I was born and raised in inner city Chicago, the sixth of eighteen children with fifteen brothers. Being the oldest daughter, I was always a caregiver which I believe influenced me to pursue work in the healthcare industry. Today, I have three daughters and five grandchildren.

Years ago, I volunteered for hospice and knew immediately that helping seniors was my calling. I was soon employed by hospice but I felt something was missing. I realized it was the limited time I was able to spend with my clients. Having my own business allows me to provide the intimate hands on service needed in our community. I am committed to our seniors throughout their lives and I thank the community for the opportunity to serve.”

MOVIES YOU CAN’T MISS

PG

Everyone’s favorite family of superheroes is back in “Incredibles 2” – but this time Helen (voice of Holly Hunter) is in the spotlight, leaving Bob (voice of Craig T. Nelson) at home with Violet (voice of Sarah Vowell) and Dash (voice of Huck Milner) to navigate the dayto-day heroics of “normal” life. It’s a tough transistion for everyone, made tougher by the fact that the family is still unaware of baby Jack-Jack’s emerging superpowers. When a new villain hatches a brilliant and dangerous plot, the family and Frozone (voice of Samuel L. Jackson) must find a way to work together again—which is easier said than done, even when they’re all Incredible.

HEALTH

KNOW YOUR RISKS

Medical tests every man should get

If you don’t have a regular source of healthcare or you’ve never had your cholesterol checked, you’re not alone. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, nearly 26 percent of men in the United States do not have a regular source of healthcare. Reverse this trend with medical tests and screenings to keep you healthy.

BLOOD PRESSURE

BODY MASS

DIABETES

Excess weight increases your risk for diabetes and heart disease. Your body mass index (BMI) measures your body fat based on your height and weight, and it can determine if you’re overweight or at risk for developing obesity. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an adult BMI between 18.5 and 25 is within normal range.

If your blood pressure is high, you may require medication to control it and ward off heart disease, kidney disease and stroke. If your blood pressure is within the normal range, you only need to have your blood pressure checked every two years. Normal blood pressure is less than 120/80 mm Hg, according to the AHA. Blood pressure higher than 135/80 mm Hg may be a symptom of diabetes. Testing for diabetes may include a hemoglobin A1C blood test, a fasting plasma glucose (FPG) test, or an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). A single test is insufficient to diagnose diabetes.

A second test must confirm that your blood glucose level is abnormally high.

MENTAL HEALTH

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than 6 million men are diagnosed with depression in the United States every year.

Feeling hopeless or experiencing loss of interest in things you normally enjoy for more than two weeks may signal depression.

Don’t dismiss prolonged bouts of feeling down or try to tough it out. Your doctor can screen you for depression and help determine how to treat it.

MELANOMA

Melanoma is currently the country’s fifth most common cancer among men. More women than men get melanoma before the age of 50, but by age 65 the ratio reverses. Men then get melanoma twice as often as women. Check your skin every month for moles that have changed or look abnormal. www.grandseasonfamily.com
