Taking It Easy on Your Couch After the Holidays

You might be thinking: "Why would I need to take a break after my break?" It is a relevant question but it's not only your body that you should be thinking about. Your brain takes up a lot of your energy especially if you are the type of person who spends a lot of time in traffic before and after work.

Getting home from work you should take some time to relax. Give your mind a break from any stress caused by work or colleagues, or by the worries of your children's back to school homework. When you get home after a long day, your mind is full of thoughts and you need to clear your mind in order to enjoy your evening.

You also need to remember that after the holidays your body and brain is not used to waking up early and working for eight hours straight. When you are back at work don't overwhelm yourself with too much work, although this is not always possible.

Another thing to consider after the holidays is that you will need a boost to get your day going. A lot of people don't worry about breakfast because of bad habits but you need to have breakfast first thing in the morning to give the energy to get through the working day. Once you are at work and have nothing in your system to wake your brain up you will feel over exhausted by the time it reaches the middle of the day.

A good way to keep your body going during the day if you are not a breakfast person is by eating a couple of snacks throughout the day. Don't consume too much sugar. Rather eat something that is naturally filled with energy such as bread, grains or cereal.

Drink as much water as possible to aid your body in keeping the pH levels up. It might not be noticeable to you but somehow your body will react to an unbalance in the system and fix the problem by using energy.

Once your working day comes to an end you will need to have something comfortable to sit on. A comfortable couch or corner suite with lots of cushions is ideal. You can sit or lay on the couch while enjoy a cup of tea or perhaps while watching your favourite television program.

Working days are a reality for a lot of people, but you do need to find some time for yourself. You need to find time in the day to relax and lounging around on the couch just makes the stress fade away into a distant memory.

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
