If you are using a public shower or swimming pool (like at a gym) then you MUST use shower shoes or pool shoes. Fungal infections like Athlete's Foot are often contracted in showers, gyms, dressing rooms, swimming pool lockers, or other warm, damp areas where fungus can thrive. And by all means, dry your feet and in between your toes after showering, even at home.

Tadasana (Mountain Pose): Start with your feet together and your hands pressed together in the center of your chest. Stretch the crown of your head toward the sky. Take a deep breath, then relax your shoulders. Do not lock your knees. Keep breathing and remain here for a minute. Slowly stretch your arms above your head and then make a giant circle motion as your bring your arms to rest at your sides, palms facing out. Feel that stretch in your arms, shoulders, abdominal, all over.

Utilize hooks! Hooks are great for hanging up keys, hanging up coats and hanging up purses. Hooks keep things organized and off the floor. Adhesive hooks are perfect on the inside of cabinet doors in the kitchen or for concealing electrical cords. Some shower caddies slip off the showerhead neck a little too easy. Find a hook that can stand up against shower steam and hang the shower caddy on the opposite wall. Remember, a space that has a lot of stuff on the floor is an indication of depression.

If you are sharing joint resources (money, property) and one of you is lying about spending, then you should know that money is the number one reason for break-ups. Financial infidelity usually occurs to avoid confrontation, cover an addiction or it is out of fear. Financial infidelity is not cute, funny or cool. It is irresponsible and immature. In a relationship where you are sharing money and property, it is important that both parties know the status of the finances, even if only one person writes the checks.

Look at the company you keep and you will see a reflection of yourself. When I look at my closest friends, there is a strong 'work ethic' theme. We show up, we do not use excuses and we are incredibly productive. You know what they say, "Birds of a feather flock together."

Make your menu planning easier by declaring each night of the week a certain 'type'. For instance, I like to start the week on a celebratory note, so every Monday night is steak night. We have a chicken night, turkey night, Mexican night, vegi-only night, soup night and seafood night. Incidentally, I will use chicken or turkey on Mexican night, so we usually have red meat only one day a week. I do not even buy pasta or bread. When I make turkey burgers they are wrapped in lettuce.
