Healthy Blood Pressure

Here are a few ways to have a healthy blood pressure.
1. Exercise. Exercise for 30 minutes, 3 to 4 times per week.
Believe me, this is an area where I am really lacking. I am trying to get with the program but I really have to force myself. I know that some say they LOVE to exercise. I unfortunately am not one of those people.
2. Low sodium diet. The Cleveland Clinic recommends under 2,000 mg of sodium per day.
3. Drink plenty of water, 6 to 8 glasses per day, with each glass being approximately 8 ounces.
4. And as with everything else—have a balanced diet. Again–this is easier said than done for me.

Do you have any tips or suggestions to share? I’d love to read your ideas.

How do you take care of yourself?

I’m a mom of three, ages 16 (soon to be 17), 14, and almost 10. I am a nurse who works full time as a high school nurse. I also teach part time, various topics such as Understanding Medical Terminology. I’m also involved in several of my kids activities, such as sports, church groups, etc.
I know I need to take care of myself, but it seems there is always something else to do.
How do you find time for yourself?

How much is too much?

Do you ever think it’s possible to allow your kids to do too much? It seems that as parents we go from one activity to another, without much time to breathe and relax. Do you think that it’s possible to have our children over booked? And if so, what type of results do you believe happen from this? Do you think that it increases the stress level and increased discipline problems?
I’d love to know your thoughts on this.

Super Mom!!!

Filed under: Medical Terminology — Tags: , , , , , , , , , , — Melissa @ 12:18 am

Do you try to do it all? Are you a mom who feels that she is always on the go, always doing for others, and rarely caring for herself?
I know that at times I try to become super mom. I have to remind myself to slow down and take care of myself. If I’m not well, I can’t take care of others.

Registration open for the May session at lvsonline. See further info here: http://lvsonline.com/online-painter-classes/

Sneezing…itchy eyes…coughing….ALLERGIES

Filed under: Medical Terminology — Tags: , , , , , , — Melissa @ 12:15 am

Allergy time is here. I can’t believe how many people are suffering. I hear so many who are sneezing, coughing, and have red and swollen eyes.
I’m taking my meds, most of the time, but really need to be more consistent with it. I know—what kind of nurse I am, lol. I’m also trying a homeopathic treatment that I am really excited about as well.

Ways to relax

I’ve had a long day.  A full day at work.  Home with the kids.  Cleaning up after dinner.  Doing a few quick household chores.  Now, I am sitting here, surfing online, while I listen to the kids in their rooms.

It seems more and more of a challenge for me to find ways to relax-ways that won’t be incredibly time consuming.  I find that by taking a few minutes to just let my mind go blank, it really helps me physically as well as mentally.  Here are a few things that work for me.  Please feel free to post ideas of your own.

1. Deep breathing.

2. Taking a short walk.  This is something that I don’t do nearly often enough.  Actually I do it very rarely but do enjoy it when I take the time.

3. A short power nap.

4. Taking a warm bath.

5. Chatting with an old friend.

Now what ways do you find work for you?

Register Here!

I teach the six week class through LVS, the Leader in Virtual Studies. And at $30.00 for all six weeks, you won’t find a more economical class…all online and at your convenience.
