Turned “ON” by your computer?

It’s responsible for connecting millions every day, while disconnecting thousands every second. It connects people with family they’ve never met before, while disconnecting them from family they’ve known their entire lives. It has made the world as a whole much smaller, therefore intensifying the competition that’s being waged between corporations and employees for maximum output in exchange for minimum dollar. It builds up walls for people to hide behind, while destroying the lives of others who reveal their lives to them.

Corporate America and Wellness

Corporations are starting to take a closer look at wellness programs for their employees. Reasons for this might not be as altruistic as we might hope, but with rising health care costs and the general health of most Americans these days hitting what is now a “crisis” level, even the corporate giants can’t help but address this large monetary investment. The statistics speak for themselves: *Health Care costs in the U.S. rose at twice the rate of inflation in 2008. National

Is FEAR robbing your Relationship, Sabotaging Your Success, and Killing Your Cash Flow?

Fear, worry, anxiety, frustration, and loneliness are all feelings we’ve felt at some point in our lives, if we’re honest. We felt this based on opportunities we’ve had and failed at or opportunities we’ve had and imagined failing. Either way, we choose each of these feelings because they can’t be accessed or experienced without our permission. However, when a person chooses fear or worry, they’re literally choosing the two greatest enemies of happiness, healthy living, and internal healing. Why?

We All Need to Continue to Lea

Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young. Henry Ford (1863-1947) American Industrialist In some respect or another we are all lifelong learners. Sometimes the teachers are found in traditional institutions of learning or praying, in books, films, on the web and in conversations with colleagues, friends, support groups, professionals, and family. Sometimes, however, we learn in the most obscure ways from people we would have least thought have anything to teach us.

Enjoying Nature All Around Us

Many of us who delight in the great outdoors do so partly as a result of flora and fauna that we see there. Wildlife is, after all, all around us and I think it is especially entertaining when one has to go no further than one’s own home to spot it. We live in a remote locale in the centre of the Yorkshire Dales and have a stream or beck as they are known around here flowing across our small garden. Over the coming few posts I will catalogue the many and varied species that we can identify from our windows; what we refer to as our “window list”

The Time Might Never Be Just Right; If Not Now, When?

Teddy Roosevelt has been quoted saying: “The only one who never makes mistakes is the one who never does anything.” When I decided to pursue my long term dream of opening my practice full time, I knew that there was a lot of risk involved. Even those closest and dearest to me questioned the sanity of my bold decision. Conce ed, they wondered how I would pull it off, how could I possibly think about leaving the safety net of the old job and how in the world could I make such a decision in such challenging economic climate.

Be on the lookout for Half a Dozen Crows!

Those who enjoy the country side cannot help observe the strange folklore linked with flora and fauna and particularly the Corvids or Crow family. A friend of mine can not rest assured unless he says “Good Morning Mr Magpie” to the very first magpie he sees every day and I have witnessed quite a few times where land owners will sometimes suspend dead magpies (indeed other beasts as well for example moles) in a line along a fence. Puzzled I started off a thread on a hiking weblog and found out that this is done for a pair of reasons.

Spring Break No Vacation for Working Moms?

Be a Cowboy? I Kid You Not!

Recently I was watching a re-run of an old television series that I remember my parents watching avidly when I was a child. It was set in the Wild West and every week the heroes had to deal with hold-ups by bandits, Indian attacks or rescuing damsels in distress, with the odd gold-rush thrown in for good measure. With only two TV channels to choose from during my English childhood we tended to get hooked into these great escapades from the wide open spaces of America.

The three of us ended up in front of the computer searching online for adventure activities to entertain young children.

One chose scuba diving and the other chose an indoor skydiving experience, as I was feeling a little flush at the time I set them a little challenge.

How to Create a Work-Life Balance

With today’s busy families and two-income households, one thing that plagues many people is how to create a life that is balanced. Even single people have a hard time with this. Often, life feels like it is consumed with work, with not a lot of down-time to spend with family, friends, having fun, or pursuing personal goals. Without balance, life feels one-sided and unfulfilling. Health and relationships suffer while stress and a feeling of overall dissatisfaction take over.

Around the Course in 80 Seconds!

In my youth I was quite a fan of motorsport and I liked nothing better than travelling to a racetrack and spending the afte oon watching different classes of cars race around the course. I do believe some of my contemporaries went to great lengths to avoid paying the admission fee by concealing themselves in the boot of a car as it entered, but that’s another story! In those days we didn’t get the chance to get behind the wheel of a car at all until we reached the legal age to drive at seventeen.

The Occidental Tourist!

Recently I recounted to my readers how I left my beloved Yorkshire to spend a week in the Italian Lake District. The travelling was done by train and I thoroughly enjoyed the fact that it took me three days to get to my destination. I started to think about people who travelled in bygone times before the advent of our modern forms of travel. When I started some research on the subject I came across the idea of the ‘Grand Tour’, this was undertaken by many a young person in an effort to broaden the mind and fit into high society.

A Folly in the Garden

Several weeks ago I decided to have a change to my normal stamping ground and went walking in the south of the country for a few days. I am used to rugged terrain or rolling hills so what struck me first about the area were the wide open spaces and vast expenses of flat ground or gentle hillocks. I then began to notice that dotted about here and there were tall, unusual buildings. On getting up close to one or two of them I realised that they seemed to serve no useful purpose other than garden decoration, as they had no doors or windows.

Of course if you live with a family, partner or friends you will have multiple personalities being expressed within the living space.
