Stress Reduction Tip of the Week
The holidays are coming and the tasks are multiplying. Cope by changing your vocabulary from
"I should do this" to "I could do this". Delegate chores to others; even a young child can help clean up or set a table. Reevaluate beliefs and rituals. Do what you believe in and what is right for you and not what you were made to believe in as a child. Affirm everyone even the difficult family members. After all, they mean well in their own way. When you act positively, others will respond and reflect your positivism - well, most of the time. |

Article of the Week - "Don’t Make Any More New Year’s Resolutions"
Every year around December we all start thinking about the New Year’s Resolutions we will be making on January 1st. At the top of the list are dieting, exercising, quitting smoking and organizing. Then we also remember the resolutions we didn’t keep: Dieting, exercising, quitting smoking and organizing. Every year we get another chance and most importantly we can postpone the latest version of our transformation until the actual New Year - usually about a month away.

Food of the Week - Squash
There are more than a dozen varieties of squash in various shapes, colors, sizes, flavors and textures. Buy whole squashes which feel hard and have no soft spots or cracks. A squash which is heavy for its size will have a thick wall of edible flesh. Squash is high in vitamin C and beta carotenes which convert to vitamin A. In fact during storage the beta carotenes increase. Small acorn squashes that come in green, gold and white can be baked with or without any stuffing. Cut them in half and remove the seeds. Fill the center with a mixture of diced apples, dried cranberries and cinnamon. Sprinkle with a little fruit juice, cover and bake or microwave until tender.
