EDITOR

NOTE

I can’t believe it’s May already! This month is extra special as my oldest son is graduating from high school! As I’ve reflected on his childhood, I am in awe at how quickly time has passed. Parenting him has been such an amazing journey! I know the job of a parent never ends, but I’m truly excited to see him thrive as he launches into adulthood.

When I think of May, my mind is flooded by all of the celebrations taking place this month, including Cinco de Mayo, Mother’s Day, Graduation, as well as Memorial Day. Logically, the theme of The Grand Season Family this month is CELEBRATE! Celebrating big events is something most of us do pretty well. But, I sometimes wonder if we celebrate the little things enough. Research shows celebrating the small moments in life not only improves your mental health, but your physical health, as well.

This quote from Alek Wek has challenged me to slow down and enjoy each moment with my sons.

“The most beautiful things are not associated with money; they are memories and moments. If you don’t celebrate those, they can pass you by.”

I hope you enjoy every celebration you attend this month, and take a moment to remember the amazing sacrifice so many veterans have made to secure the freedoms of our great nation.

Celebrate the journey!

BREATHE Strategies to beat stress

by Melissa McCullough

Stress is just one of those things that’s impossible to avoid. I don’t know about you, but even when I’m doing things I love, my “type A” personality takes over, and I begin to try to bite off more than I can chew. This month with my oldest graduating high school and me preparing for a move, I thought I’d share some strategies to help reduce stress that I’ve heard from experts and through other publications.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, take a moment and test out one, or more of these ideas.

Phone a friend

A heart to heart with a friend can be just what you need to feel more at ease. Research has found social support can go a long way toward improving mental health and fighting stress by increasing resiliency and reducing risky behaviors.

Help someone else

Volunteering for a cause—whether it’s getting groceries for a sick friend or walking dogs at a local shelter—can make you feel better than whatever is stressing you out.

Research shows volunteering makes people feel more connected and can help reduce blood pressure.

Take a deep breath

To stop stress fast, just breathe in. Inhale deeply for four counts through your nose. Hold your breath for seven counts, then exhale for eight counts through your mouth. Concentrate on your pattern. Stress will quickly melt away.

Listen to your favorite music Regardless of your favorite genre, research found listening to music not only reduced levels of the stress hormone cortisol, but it also helps improve immune system functionality.

Hit the museum

Take your mind off whatever ails you by surrounding yourself with visual beauty.

10

The Grand Season family

May 2019

Hold something cold

Freaking out? Grab an ice cube or a cold drink. Feeling something cold in your hand immediately forces you to the present moment and can distract you from whatever is causing you stress.

Take a nap

Stress can impede your ability to get a good night’s sleep, but the opposite is also true—when you’re well rested you’re better able to cope with stressful situations.

Take a walk

A quick stroll outside can help reduce anxiety. Research found within five minutes of walking outside, participants reported an increase in self-esteem.

Laugh

Whether it’s watching a comedy on YouTube or a funny movie on Netflix, humor is the best way to make you feel better fast. Laughter reduces cortisol levels while increasing endorphin production.

Do something new

Whether it’s a crafting class at a community college or taking yoga in the park, get out of your stress funk and into a new environment.

Challenging yourself in new ways can distract you from whatever might be worrying you.

Featuring excellent, friendly service and free deliveries the dispensary is also proud to be the home to the first drive-thru in the state, allowing patients the same conveniences as many standard pharmacies.

As of March 2019, The Arizona Medical Marijuana Program is serving 193,672 active patients and counting! Of those active patients, the two largest age groups served were those aged 51-60 and 61-70. As more patients and members of the general public become educated on the benefits of using medical marijuana the numbers will no doubt continue to grow. Medical marijuana patients commonly report pain relief, reduced spasms, improved mood, less anxiety and improved sleep. Those are just a few of the many benefits of medical marijuana, not to mention its wellknown low side effect profile!

All Greens Clinic is a one stop health alternative which has just relocated to the same plaza at Bell Road & 99th Avenue. The clinic offers friendly, professional service, the lowest price on Medical Marijuana Certifications and it has three full-time Naturopathic Doctors on staff who also gladly accept patients anytime for free consultations. Free education classes are offered 8:00am to 9:00am on the first Saturday of every month. Additionally, the clinic is home to a large and ever-growing selection of CBD products.

12

The Grand Season family

May 2019

1. The lifestyle you enjoyed growing up is not waiting for you after graduation.

2. Everybody isn’t doing better than you are. In fact, most of the world is doing worse.

3. The media is selling you on a lifestyle that is essentially unobtainable.

4. Life isn’t about avoiding struggles, but rather overcoming them.

5. The solution to running low on money isn’t spending more.

6. The amount of money people spend isn’t indicative of their wealth, but their values.

7. Successful people don’t take rejection personally.

8. Life is about negotiation—a skill you learned at six.

9. One of the best tools for not looking stupid is to ask questions.

10. The fine art of small talk can take you far.

11. The best time to start networking is before you need a network.

12. Basing your happiness on how you compare financially to your friends is a ticket to misery.

13. Recognize the difference between a want and a need before you spend your money.

14. There will be times when you can’t afford things.

This is no reason to give up.

15. There is no quick way to acquire wealth. It takes discipline and hard work.

16. Learn how to persevere in difficult situations.

17. The cure to feeling miserable and depressed is to go out and help someone less fortunate.

18. Seek advice from a mentor rather than a friend.

19. A budget isn’t meant to punish you, but rather to help you reach your financial goals.

20. If getting a good job were easy everybody would have them.

21. Try to make friends with people who aren’t like you.

22. Suicide isn’t a real solution to anything.

23. In five years, you don’t have to be the same person you are today.

24. Victims are never happy.

25. Partying and staying out late are not habits of successful adults.

26. Mornings are actually a great time to get things done.

27. A good night’s sleep often makes life seem much better.

28. Cooking at home is cheaper than eating fast food.

29. Healthy people ask for what they need.

LIFE HACKS

Little tips to solve problems

Going to the casino? Carry only the amount of cash that you are comfortable losing, and lock your credit cards and debit cards in your vehicle.

You can use a banana peel to shine your shoes.

It’s natural, chemical free, and there’s no risk of staining the carpet.

Have a pet that sheds a lot of hair. Fold your clothes inside out when putting them away. This will prevent getting hair stuck to the visible side.

When putting together build-it-yourself furniture, use a muffin tin or ice cube tray to separate all of the screws, nails, and fasteners. This will make for easy access during the build.

If you don’t get up every morning with a burning desire to do things, then you don’t have enough goals.

Add the two-minute rule to your life. If it only takes two minutes to do, just do it now.

Tuesday at 3:00 pm, six weeks before your desired departure time, is when you’ll find the absolute cheapest those airline tickets will ever be.

Going camping? Put some glow-in-the-dark paint on your tent so you can easily locate it at night.

After washing the dishes, throw the used sponge in the microwave and run it for two minutes. This has been proven to kill 99% of germs.

When taking pills remember this: Chin up for tablets, and chin down for capsules. Tablets sink, while capsules float.

Ever wonder why cell phone cords are so short? It’s because using your phone while it’s charging can damage the battery.

Child have an annoyingly loud toy? Put a piece of clear tape or craft glue over the speaker. The sound will still play, but it won’t have that high-pitch quality to it.

Bring a stale bagel back to life simply by running it under hot water for thirty seconds, and then baking it in the over at 350F for five minutes.

HISTORY

MEMORIAL DAY Teach your kids about its real meaning

Technically, summer doesn’t start until June 21st, but many people consider Memorial Day to be the unofficial start of the season. This year, we celebrate the holiday on May 27th. Many families will heat up the grill, head to the beach or take in a big blockbuster movie.

But Memorial Day has the word “memorial” in it for a reason.

The holiday got started on May 30, 1868, when Union General John A. Logan declared the day an occasion to decorate the graves of Civil War soldiers. Twenty years later, the name was changed to Memorial Day. On May 11, 1950, Congress passed a resolution

requesting that the President issue a proclamation calling on Americans to observe each Memorial Day as a day of prayer for permanent peace and designating a period on that day when the people of the United States might unite in prayer. President Richard M. Nixon declared Memorial Day a federal holiday in 1971. Memorial Day is now observed on the last Monday of May. It is an occasion to honor the men and women who died in all wars.

monuments. One of the biggest Memorial Day traditions is for the President or Vice President to give a speech and lay a wreath on soldiers’ graves in the largest national cemetery (Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia).

Most communities host local Memorial Day celebrations.

Here are some ways you can honor the men and women who served our country: • Put flags or flowers on the graves of men and women who served in wars.

• Fly the U.S. flag at half-staff until noon.

• Visit monuments dedicated to soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines.

SAVOR SUCCESS Celebrate success in healthy ways

HEALTH

Life is full of opportunities to celebrate relationships, milestones and the little things in life. Due to the fast pace of life, however, we often only celebrate moments that we deem important to others. Research indicates one of the best things we can do for our health is celebrate the successes we experience in our own lives.

When you accomplish goals you’ve been pursuing, there are a few simple ways that you can celebrate your success and inspire yourself to continue on your journey to personal fulfillment.

Try practicing the habits below the next time you have a win.

Reflect

What is it that you are celebrating?

Sure, winning the game or meeting

your sales quota would be reasons to celebrate, but if we take away the outcome and look at the journey it took to get there, what would you want to celebrate most?

others who may have helped, in ways big or small, to reach the finish line.

Including others in your celebration is a wonderful way to build and strengthen connection with coworkers, loved ones or others who helped you along the way. Give them specific feedback about the ways that they helped you achieve your goal and express gratitude for their help.

As you reflect, ask questions like: • What did I enjoy most about this journey?

• What strengths did I use?

• What do I feel most confident about?

• How did I overcome obstacles along the way?

Be present

In our fast-paced society we seem to always be focused on the future.

When we have reached one goal we quickly move on to the next, often with no celebration at all. Celebrating your success includes slowing down to appreciate and live the experience of your success with those who are important to you.

Answering questions like these in your reflection can help clarify what it is that you are celebrating about your success.

Include others

When celebrating success you’ve experienced, it can be easy to forget

LOVE

F

CHERISH THE MOMENTS Five ways to celebrate your relationship 1. Take pictures

alling in love is one of the greatest feelings in the world.

Staying in love, however, is work. A strong relationship takes intentional effort to cultivate and is something that shouldn’t be taken for granted.

Relationship experts say one of the best things you can do for your relationship is to celebrate your love. Here are five simple ways to celebrate your relationship any day of the year.

Throughout most moments of the day, you probably have your phone ready to snap a quick photo to share on social media. Remember to take a few photos of just you and your partner for just you and your partner. Capturing moments together gives you a visual reminder of love and reinforces “togetherness.” If you’re feeling creative, make a photo album of you and your partner to remember those past moments you shared.

2. Write notes

Leave a note on the bathroom mirror. Tuck a piece of paper with a thoughtful message in your partner’s coat pocket. Scribble a note down on the back of the electric bill and leave it next to the coffee pot. These notes don’t have to be long love letters, just a simple note to make your partner smile.

3. Share your gratitude

Take a quick moment to share with your partner what you appreciate about them. Start with, “You know what I really appreciate about you?”

Then continue with some personal praise of your partner.

4. Dance together

It could be a night out dancing to your favorite local band, a small dance in the kitchen while you are making dinner, or a re-creation of your first dance at your wedding.

Try sitting down and finding a new song that represents your relationship as it stands today, and be sure to dance to it tonight.

5. Listen to each other

Active listening is the ability to let your partner know you understand what they have said by restating their message. Practice really listening to what your partner is saying. Remember the words of Jeff Daly: “Two monologues do not make a dialogue.”

Remember, it’s the little things that help keep your love alive!

ENJOY EACH MINUTE

Creative ways to make the most of graduation

Trying to find a creative way to celebrate your graduate? Perhaps some of these ideas will make the process a little less stressful.

Announce the graduation to friends and family

Instead of using a pre-made template for a graduation announcement, try doing something more creative. Whether it is a graduation-themed candy bar wrapper or a customized magnet, there are many unique ways that students can announce their big day to friends and family.

Create a slide show of pictures of the graduate

Ask friends and family to contribute their photos of the graduate and compile a slideshow of pictures. The slideshow can be made on a home computer or you can get professional help. To make the viewing even more memorable, consider playing the graduate’s favorite song during the slideshow or adding funny, personal captions to the photos.

Thank teachers and mentors

Acknowledging teachers and mentors at graduation is very satisfying. Instead of just writing a thank you card, try something more creative, such as writing a poem, making a video, taking a silly photo or recording a song. Take this opportunity to express gratitude and appreciation to those who have helped make a difference in the graduate’s life.

Make a high school scrapbook

Making a scrapbook is a great way to remember high school friends and memories. It is also a good opportunity to organize old pictures and mementos. Writing directly on photos with an acid-free photo pen is also a fun way to caption photos in a scrapbook.

Decorate the graduate’s car

Decorating your senior’s car with graduation flair will always be a fun way to announce to the world that they are moving on. Whether it is a simple graduation tassel hanging from the rearview mirror or shoe polish on the windows, this is a creative way to take pride in and celebrate a graduation.

Decorate the graduation cap

If the school allows it, help your graduate stand out in the crowd by decorating her graduation cap, which is also known as a mortarboard.

Whether you use homemade embellishments, like rhinestones or coins, or store-bought stickers, the top of a mortarboard is a clean slate for personal messages and creative designs.

22

Graduation is a special time of achievement. As you try to make the occasion amazing for your child, don’t forget to spend time enjoying each moment you have with them before, during and after the celebrations are complete!

SPOIL YOUR MOM

GIVE

Every day can be Mother’s Day

Does the idea of showing your Mom how much you love her overwhelm you? Really, when you think about it, “What can you give to the woman who birthed you, nurtured you, encouraged you, inspired you and loved you—even when you were difficult?”

If you ask your Mom what she wants from you, she’ll probably say, “Nothing!” The reality of motherhood is that, regardless of your mother’s age, all she really wants is to spend time with you. Looking for some creative ways to spend time with your Mom while giving her something to make her feel special? Check out this list!

1. Take your Mom for dinner (make sure you make reservations as Mother’s Day is the busiest day of the year for restaurants).

2. Give your Mom flowers. They don’t have to be fancy and you can send them from anywhere.

3. Make a photo book with your best photos.

10. Frame some favorite quotes about motherhood or make her a collection in a notebook.

11. Make her a jar filled with candies wrapped with special little notes of love.

12. Get her a yearly subscription to her favorite magazine—something she can look forward to every month.

4. Make your Mom’s favorite breakfast in bed.

13. Get a professional portrait made of all the kids (and grandkids).

5. Give her a much needed day off. You handle all of the cooking, cleaning, errands and more.

14. Buy her a charm bracelet and get her a new charm every year about a meaningful memory you two shared.

6. Make your own Mother’s Day Card.

15. Take a class together of something she always wanted to do like sewing, painting, cooking, etc.

7. Make her a home cooked meal. Learn to cook her favorite dish ahead of time.

8. Take her out shopping and get lunch while you’re out.

9. Get her a gift certificate to a spa, nail salon or hair salon.

TRASH OR TREASURE? Make something old brand new

By Courtney Cavanaugh Greger

W

ith furniture trends moving into distressed farmhouse appeal, a DIY project can turn that old faded coffee table into a treasure with a new modern style. Refinishing a piece of wooden furniture can be easy, but it does take multiple steps and a wellventilated work space to get the job done.

The first step for your project is to decide the finish you want. If you’re looking for a farmhouse appeal, refinishing your project

with a chalk paint is the best and easiest option. Follow these steps and turn your trash into a treasure:

PREP:

The preparation of the piece is essential to the paint adhering and staying long term. Be sure to clean the piece with soapy water or mineral spirits to remove extra dirt and grime.

Once all the dirt is removed, a light sanding always makes

sense. New modern paints do not require sanding, but I have found it delivers the best results. Then, fill in any holes or damage with wood putty and then sand the whole piece lightly again. After the sanding is completed use a tack cloth to remove all dust particles.

SEAL:

Although chalk paint doesn’t require a sealing, I’ve found using a wax or a protective finish after painting makes the finished piece look nicer.

ACCESSORIZE:

Once the piece is finished, accessorize it! Tables and cabinets need great updated handles and hardware to elevate the piece. Add color and depth to chairs with new pads.

PAINT:

Chalk paint does not require a primer and can be painted directly onto the piece and may only take two coats to cover. You can visit your local hardware store or shop Amazon to get your favorite color.

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.”

GROWTH

LIVE FULLY Celebrate your life daily

C

Celebrate your day… before it begins.

elebrating as a group bestows a sense of belonging, something crucial to human fulfilment. From birthdays to funerals, there is no end to the celebrations of who we are, where we came from, what we’ve done, what we worship and even who or what we’ve lost. Let’s be honest, do we need a holiday or an observance in order to don our party hats? The overwhelming response from the scientific, religious, medical and spiritual communities is no!

While your head is still on the pillow, take just a few minutes to identify all the things for which you are grateful, even if it’s just the fact that you are in a warm bed with a roof over your head.

Give thanks sincerely and often.

Celebrating life on a daily basis is a way to develop an “attitude of gratitude” that can literally transform your outlook on life and your ability to more deeply enjoy what you already have. An attitude of gratitude will not only improve your outlook, but it will also improve your health and your sleep.

Here are some tips from the experts that can help you develop a lasting habit of gratitude.

30

The Grand Season family

Pay attention to the gestures of consideration shown to you throughout the day. Be sure to thank everyone who treats you with a kind gesture. Write letters to people thanking them for what they’ve done for you. Telephone someone and tell them how much you appreciate their influence on your life.

Appreciate the “negatives” in your life.

Obstacles and challenges teach us resiliency and humility, and they allow us to become more capable of overcoming bigger problems.

May 2019

Instead of losing it over your neighbor’s barking dog, be grateful for the opportunity to practice patience.

Keep a journal.

Don’t like to write? Do something called the “rampage of appreciation.” Think about all the things for which you’re grateful, open your journal, set a timer for one minute and spray the page with anything and everything that comes to mind. Don’t stop until the timer rings. When it’s over, you’ll be amazed at how many blessings belong to you.

Count your blessings before you count sheep.

Just as you begin your day as a celebration, end it the same way. By focusing on the good things in your life, you reduce mental stress which contributes to insomnia. Remember, you don’t have to wait for an excuse to party. Go ahead, make some noise! It’s your life and you’re worth celebrating! www.grandseasonfamily.com
