Calming the Crazy
Pause... for just a few minutes. Take a deep breath and let the breath come into your body, hold it for four seconds and then release. Try to do this one more time preferably sitting down. I love this exercise because I love to come back into my body. As a very strong brainiac and dreamer I enjoy reminiscing and calculating my thoughts in my head. Put when your mind constantly spinning with work emails, deadlines, and bad news you can develop anxiety. I realize that I like meditation and ASMR because it allows me to feel into my senses. I can focus on my breathing and what my body needs in the moment.

Like Jane Fonda
It goes without saying, that almost all of us are hooked on celebrity news, follow the stars in Instagram and in general facebook-addicted. That comes as no surprise, as they look a million dollars, behave like kings and queens, eat lavish meals and practice luxurious lifestyle. They are the envy of the whole world! Beautiful people are known to be party animals, late comers, and they are easy to spot right off. Ordinary people often claim showbiz representatives to encourage their friends, acquaintances mates of all kinds and even us to party. They are ready to start any event in a slap-dash way and enjoy it. But sometimes these party animals turn out to be not very loyal and chances are they will fool each other around or cheat. But in most cases they are just funny, witty, energetic and confident people with lots of ideas. They definitely stay green in people’s mind! Few people would doubt that star’s lifestyle is a dream, which has come true for only few artists. From the one hand, they take great efforts to look great and be always fit. Here, we have nothing to envy, as it takes almost all their time and there is almost no space left for privacy. But at the same time, you are paid for being glamorous, fit, groomed and so on! Why not to follow a strict diet, dress to kill, visit official events like charity evenings, world music awards, and all of that kind, if you are paid for this? Seems quite easy and logical! Everyone would be happy to know some secrets, that help keep youth, beauty, and energy for many years. I’m delighted with Jane Fonda, who is in her early eighties. Can you imagine? An American actress, writer, producer, political activist, fitness guru, and former fashion model has always managed to be an example of an ideal woman and she is happy to share her diet and fitness tips for those who are in bid to get in shape. Things to take into account include, first of all, healthy eating, good fitness regime and everything, having to do with these key points. Almost nothing new, but with interesting details!

Four Ways to Manage Chronic Pain in Sobriety
Since dependence on opioids can occur after only seven days of taking opioids, much of the opioid epidemic has been attributed to the excessive prescribing of pain medications to patients after surgery or when dealing with chronic pain. In addition, those who are living a sober life in recovery who struggle with chronic pain face unique challenges because opioids are no longer an option. However, there are several methods of pain management that one can use without turning to prescription opioids.
