Walk to Save a Relationship ?

Friday, October 17th, 2008

We know that a walk is good for us because it is an exercise shortcut as well as stress relief technique: it clears our mind and helps to get rid of frustration.

It also might help to save our relationships if we are smart enough to walk for a walk away… from the argument.  Is it really  true? Then why it is so difficult to do so ?  When I was in my first marriage, my mother used to ask me to shut my  mouth, open the door and close it behind me at the beginning of my fight, before it got ugly.  Did I follow her piece of advice, at least once? Hmmmm.  A good news for me is that  I’ve learnt my lessons, even it took me a couple of marriages

What about you?

Unfortunately, a lot of women don’t know how to take advantage of  their life lessons, no matter how old they are.  I have a lot of clients who are very successful careerwise, but as for their private lives, they act as teenagers at their 30s, 40s and even in 60s!  And I always ask myself why that is ??!

P.S. Did you know that walnuts, almonds, pears, apples are natural stress busters? A bowl of oatmeal with walnuts and raisins is the best (quickest and healthiest) breakfast ever.

Almonds are rich in vitamin E,and we know they are very good for our skin. But have you ever tried almond’s butter to exfoliate?

As for apples and pears (can be used as a homemade facial), have them as healthy snacks all day long. more on stress busters
