Maintaining a Healthy Weight: 5 rules to guide you |
|
|
by Ramona Josephson, RDN B.Sc Hons Dip Ther Diet
The bottom-line. Don't try too hard. Your goal is to incorporate a healthy eating plan that is safe, fits your lifestyle and that you can sustain for life. Eating is one of life's pleasures. If you deny yourself your favorite foods you set yourself up to crave them. It's just a matter of time before you over-indulge! Instead, include the foods you love, be deliberate about when you choose them and savor them mindfully.

Exercise of the Month: Had It's |
|
|
by Jane Clapp & Sarah Robichaud
 You've had it with the office politics. Why do they keep piling crappy assignments on your desk? Push it away and reap the benefits of a beautiful chest. With your hands wide on the edge of your desk and your feet off the ground, PAC it in and slowly lower your chest toward your desk. Keep your shoulders away from your ears and elbows pointing back and slightly down. Exhale on the way up. Repeat fifteen to twenty times.
Jane Clapp & Sarah Robichaud, authored the book "Working On the Ball: A Simple Guide to Office Fitness" which features a series of excellent ball exercises and health tips, available at bookstores across North America. |

"Hello...I am a dental hygienist from Canada and I've been using the evolution chair since now 2 years... Now I started a new job in Switzerland and my body is trying to get use to the regular operation chair, but it's impossible... Now I am trying to get the evolution chair imported to Switzerland because my body is strongly asking for it. This product is a great invention. Thanks" - Suzie RDH
"As I run a computer consultancy, I find myself seated and staring at a computer screen for large parts of the day.In the course of my work, I had occasion to do some work for someone who, as part of my remuneration, gave me an Evolution Chair. I have to say that I was not impressed at the time, and did not picture myself actually using it - thinking perhaps that I could re-gift it later on. Curiosity got the better of me of course, and like any tech geek, I decided to give it a try.
Sitting on the Evolution Chair is now the most comfortable thing I could ever have imagined, and I can feel the core strength in my lower back, abdomen, and general body has dramatically improved. Here's the big thing for me: it doesn't matter how many hours I have to spend at my computer, I never have back-ache, stiffness, or a feeling of fatigue no matter how long I have to work. Unfortunately, that's more than I can say for the state of my eyes after hours of staring at the dancing pixels on my screen." - Peter Levey
