EDITOR

February is here and that means love is in the air!

The best thing about love is sharing it with someone, whether it be your spouse, partner, children, parents, friends or a complete stranger. This month’s issue of The Grand Season Family is focused on helping you identify your passions and providing you with tips to enhance your relationships.

While writing the content for this issue, it seems everywhere I turn, I’m reminded about what love should be. Contrary to popular opinion, love is not just a feeling or emotion, rather, love requires action. I think 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 speaks clearly about what love is: Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong doing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.

This month’s issue of The Grand Season Family is

chalked full of great ideas on how to love those in your life as well as yourself.

I want to challenge you to try to make a difference in someone’s life you may not know—or perhaps someone who may be especially hard to love.

Please share your story with me by emailing me at me at: melissa@thegrandseason.com, I look forward to hearing how we are making a positive impact on our community.

Thank you for your support of The Grand Season Family, and our advertisers.

Let love guide you, Melissa McCullough Associate Publisher

LOVE YOURSELF Take care of yourself

In the hustle and bustle of life, it is easy to take care of everyone else before yourself. At the end of the day we all know if you don’t take care of yourself—it’s almost impossible to take care of those counting on you. This month make it a priority to add some of these ideas to your day to help you feel better.

Cherish true friends

Forgive yourself and others

Forgiveness is one of our most powerful allies. Forgive the people in your life who harmed you. Forgive yourself for your own mistakes then you will liberate yourself from pain, anger, resentment and negativity.

Surround yourself with true friends.

Friends who’ve seen you at your worst, and love you even more for it. Friends who selflessly love you for you, without any agenda. Those friends are priceless.

Create sacred spaces in your days or weeks where you unplug from everything. No emails, internet, nothing. We are turning into an ADD society, jumping from one distraction to another. Seize back control. Unplug regularly or you’ll burn out your emotional hardware.

Be still

You are perfect. You are invaluable.

You are enough.

Stop over-thinking

Find somewhere beautiful—a park, the woods, your backyard—and just sit there. Be still. Absorb the sound of the wind through the trees, the light and the shadows, the peace, and just appreciate the stillness. It’s meditative and calming. Make time for stillness regularly.

LOVE

REKINDLE THE ROMANCE IN YOUR MARRIAGE

Whether you’re a honeymooner or you’re celebrating your 50th anniversary, there’s a chance that the romantic spark that brought you and your partner together in the first place needs to be rekindled.

Experts say that a continually fulfilling relationship requires establishing and maintaining a complete connection.

Try these tips to increase the connection in your marriage:

Keep dating

No matter how busy you become, you should never stop having the kind of fun you had when you were courting. Whether it’s hiking beautiful trails, going to concerts, or giving and attending parties, these activities should be carried into any long-term relationship if you intend to have a meaningful romantic life together and a healthy emotional connection.

Take each other seriously

Don’t allow gender stereotypes to lead you to discount each other’s feelings or opinions as irrational.

You’ll communicate more effectively, and be happier as a result, if you listen to your partner and take him or her seriously. In other words, there should be no “boss” in the marriage. Work at maintaining a peer relationship.

Ritualize contact time

Couples need ritualized contact time in which they get together, such as going to lunch once a week, having coffee together in the morning or watching a television program they both like. This is one of the most important components of having a close, emotionally intimate relationship.

Speak the language of love

Emotional intimacy has its own language, the language of endearment. Focus on all the right features of your partner—the personal qualities you saw when you first met and still appreciate, and start to verbalize that information. If your partner reciprocates, it will create a feeling of closeness. These words don’t have to be rational or logical, but they should always be a validation of the relationship and your partner.

Lose your inhibitions

Be open with each other about everything—including sex. Unfortunately, lingering guilt, fear and shame on this topic prevent many couples from being candid with one another. Learn to lose those inhibitions so that you can share your needs, desires, feelings and concerns.

Give each other space

You don’t need to do everything together to have a happy relationship. In fact, the happiest couples tend to give each other the support and space needed to maintain their independent interests.

You don’t have to resign yourself to receding happiness as time passes. A challenge of your current beliefs can help you rekindle the spark and enjoy a closer, more meaningful relationship.

GROWTH

CREATIVE DATES

Experts say, falling in love is easy, but staying in love is hard.

Research indicates couples who spend time cultivating their relationship are healthier, happier and more vibrant than those who don’t. If you’re in a dating rut, try these ideas out to light a spark in your relationship.

SING A SONG

If one of you knows how to play piano or guitar—or any other instrument—sing through your favorite songs together. Grab a bottle of wine and make it an at-home karaoke bar.

HIT UP THE FARMERS’ MARKET

And then see what sort of fresh dinner you can make with those ingredients.

GO TO A JAZZ CLUB

Live like you’re in “La La Land” and dress up in your finest, see some live jazz, drink some whiskey (or your choice of beverage), and get transported to what will feel like another era.

PLAY GAMES

Whether its chess, Twister, Connect4 or Uno, it’s fun to get a little competitive. Competition can be sexy, right?

CHECK OUT A NEW BAND

See a concert—not just major headliners at the larger venues, but also check out smaller places which showcase indie artists and up-and-coming acts.

GET SOME ICE CREAM

Ice cream is sweet and so is love, so why reserve dessert only for dinner time? Anytime is a great time for sharing a tasty treat together.

TAKE A DANCE CLASS

Learn some sweet moves and then go tear up the dance floor together and put what you’ve learned to good use again and again.

HAVE A FIELD DAY

Whether you end up grilling, playing soccer or just lying down in the grass and cracking up, you’ll have a great outdoorsy time. Just try to avoid wearing white pants or they won’t be white for long.

BECOME AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHERS

Make it your mission to start taking photos of all the things you see. Go on a car ride and find some great new places to shoot!

PLAY POOL

Shoot some pool, drink some beer, and call it an awesome night. Keep it competitive for a little extra fun!

SHAKE THINGS UP AND HAVE FUN artisanal bars have, from the pomegranate molasses to the chocolate bitters? Stock up and learn how to make drinks yourselves—and then every night can be a fun night at the cocktail bar.

SEE A COMEDY SHOW

You can see your favorite comedian, or check out some new names from the roster of up-and-comers—you never know if you’ll be seeing the next rising star! Sure, life can be hard, but it gets a lot easier when you laugh so hard that the beer comes out of your nose!

FINESSE YOUR HOME BAR

You have some of the mix-ins and you have some staple booze, but do you have all the things your favorite

PLAY PUB TRIVIA

Everything’s easier when you’re on a team. Have some fun and who knows, you might even win a prize!

GO TO A STREET FAIR

Life is extra sweet when the food is really cheap! It’s always fun to discover new and interesting types of foods and vendors with someone special.

GO BOWLING

Get your best retro outfit on (or not) and roll your way to a score—literally.

FROM CHORES TO STUDENT LOANS

MONEY

Teaching Kids Money Basics Amazingly, many teenagers will graduate high school this year with little knowledge about how finances work, flying blind into a hurricanesized storm of potential debt, bad loans, bankruptcy and no savings or retirement. As a parent, you can head this off. To help, the makers of BusyKid, an app that tracks kids’ chores and allowance, are offering families tips and financial basics for getting started.

Chores Introduce chores early and treat them as if it’s your child’s first job. By changing the mindset around chores, kids can develop a good work ethic that can carry over to a real job.

Modern Money It’s estimated that less than 10 percent of the world’s currency is actually paper or coins. This means your child needs to know how to manage invisible money, including paying bills and tracking credit and debit card spending.

Savings Thirty-nine percent of Americans admit to having no money in a savings account. Teach children to save a portion of money they receive from birthdays, holidays, babysitting, mowing grass, etc. A good rule of thumb for kids: 50 percent savings, 40 percent spending and 10 percent sharing.

Investing If your child ever wants to retire, he or she will need to invest money along the way, and practice makes perfect. Luckily, there are resources available to teach them how, including some fantasy investing games, as well as apps like BusyKid, which provides a place to buy real shares of stock for as little as $10.

Compound interest is when a bank pays interest on both the principal (the original amount of money) and the interest an account has already earned. As an example, if you put $1000 in the bank with compound interest of 10 percent, in 20 years you’ll have more than $7,000. Without compound interest, it would be $3,000. Let your money make money!

Credit Cards This is not free money! Have one card for emergencies or travel, but make sure the annual percentage rate is low and is paid off monthly.

Your kids will be flooded with offers as soon as they’re old enough, so teach them to say no, even when promised gifts for signing up.

For more money management knowledge and practice, enroll your family in BusyKid. Visit www.busykid.com for more information.

HEALTH

BATTLE THE BULDGE FORGET COUNTING CALORIES

For years, the general wisdom was that the only scientifically proven way to shed pounds and inches was to consume fewer calories than ones burned each day. Unfortunately, that formula doesn’t work for everybody. Why? Experts say that this is because successful weight loss is associated with a wider range of factors.

“Gaining control of your weight is more complex than the ‘calories in/calories out’ approach that so many dieters subscribe to,” says Margie Adelman, “Now research shows that powerful factors regulate weight, and that understanding those factors can help you reach your goals.”

According to Adelman, these are clinically proven actions that promote fat loss, which every dieter should know about:

Rethink your goals

In dieting, your number one goal shouldn’t be to lose pounds but rather increase your lean body mass. Healthy weight loss is all about burning energy, and the leaner your body mass, the more energy you can burn. It’s by “building lean” that you will lose fat.

De-stress

Stress triggers a “fight or flight” response, during which the body produces adrenaline that mobilizes stored fuel so you can run away or pick up a stick

22

The Grand Season family

Febuary 2019

and fight. That fuel is stolen from muscles and organs, tearing down lean body mass, as well as leaving energy in the bloodstream that the body converts to fat if it’s not used.

Sleep well

Jealously guard sleep time and don’t let anything interfere with it. The deep sleep states are when anabolic processes take over to build lean body mass, so high-quality, undisturbed sleep is essential.

Your bedroom should be cool, dark and quiet. If you need white noise, make sure that it’s constant and not irritating.

Get exercise and make it fun

Exercise builds lean body mass, so get plenty of it. But make sure it’s something fun so you’ll enjoy it and keep up the habit.

Eat right

Low carb diets like the Paleo Diet, which feature a wide variety of protein sources, fruits, veggies and healthy fats, have the best profile for losing body fat while building lean body tissue and are much healthier than low-calorie diets.

Remember that lean body tissue is made from protein, so if you want to “build the lean” eat plenty of protein.

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.”

Eliminate Clutter

oes your home meet this definition?

Does it communicate all you love and adore, or is it a collection of items that cloud your daily existence?

Marie Kondo, author of “Spark Joy”, has suggested purging and organizing in accordance with what brings you the most joy. I would agree with her philosophy.

If our homes are cluttered with objects that don’t bring positivity into our lives, then why have them? Here are three easy steps to loving your home again.

30

Too much of anything is not a good thing. When our homes are filled with clutter, it can be difficult to find peace and get energy flow. It’s time to toss items you don’t need. Move items off counter tops and into drawers and cabinets. Your counter space should only be filled with items you love.

Show Off What Brings You Joy

Have you been on an amazing vacation, but it appears nowhere in your home? Pictures on your walls will provoke those same emotions. Do you have a pet you you love?

Things that remind you of your dog would also be items to showcase. Items representing your passion for sports, wine, people, locations, bands, food or inspirational quotes, are all things that can be showcased

in picture frames or boxes to be displayed in a modest way to evoke the same emotions you feel when you are present in these moments.

would be great in a family space to bring calm but then accenting with green would bring healing, yellow would bring energy.

Add Color

Color doesn’t have to be so planned or contrived. Take a look at what is around you and what happens in those rooms and you can change up the energy by just changing out a few color accents.

Color can change up a mood in any room. Here is a list of colors and the energies they evoke in a room.

Blue - calmness Green - healing, balance Yellow - warmth, energy, focus Purple - wealth, wisdom Orange - enthusiasm, attention Pink - romance, kindness Red - Love, excitement, passion White - purity, innocence Black - void, unhappiness It’s wise to stick with neutral, or soft wall colors in these tones, and then add accessories with bold choices to get the energy and feel you want in the space.

For example, a blue couch

You can make these changes easily to add harmony and energy back into your home. Try something new and see how that impacts the way you feel.
