Cracked heels are really nothing more than oversight or a lack of proper foot care. There are many home treatments for cracked heals, the easiest one being the use of a hydrogenated oil or petroleum jelly on the feet. Put the oil or jelly on clean dry feet, then put on socks and wear them overnight. Doing this over the course of 3 or 4 days, your feet should have gotten progressively better.

Standing Ab exercise that you can do during a commercial or on a break. Side-to-Side Punch Outs 4 x 30 seconds. Feet a little wider than shoulder width and your fists by your chin. Put your weight in your hips by sitting back into a quarter squat position. Punch to your left side with your right hand by rotating your core. Rotate back to the starting position while returning your hand to your chin. Repeat the movement while alternating sides for 30 seconds.

Take the time to fix what is broken or loose. Tighten screws on door handles, drawers and cabinets. These are easy fixes that require only a screwdriver, so there is no reason to have your world falling apart before your eyes. Just fix it! Oiling squeaky doors with WD40. If you have sticky areas from labels, use a product called 'Goo Gone'. You can get that product at a discount store for $7.00 but pay only $1.00 at the dollar store.

I'm super-dooper conscious of using excess energy. It's not a cheap-thing, it's a right-thing. In warm weather I hang clothes outside on a clothes line to dry. In cold weather I hang clothes on hangers on the shower rod to dry. I use the dryer for towels (in the winter) and that's pretty much it. Even socks I will hang over the shower rod. If you use a laundromat, save yourself the money and just bring your wet clothes home to hang on the shower rod.

It doesn't matter where you worked or where you work now, there is information and skill to be gained. When I first went into practice, I joined another doctor's practice and learned how not to run a practice. Learning from someone else's mistakes was an invaluable experience that I would not have gotten anywhere else, except myself. You just can't make some of that stuff up but you can sure as heck learn from it.

We don't eat a lot of boxed, packaged, canned, refined, baked or packaged food, but we do eat protein bars and fiber bars. I fill up a huge glass cookie jar with the protein and fiber bars. It not only looks healthy sitting there, it is a constant reminder to eat healthy.
