"Hygiene" comes from Hygieia, the Greek goddess of health, cleanliness and the Moon. A well manicured environment keeps critters away. For the body this means fungus, bacteria, germs, etc. As I always say, "Bagworms don't grow on a golf course." Your job today is to identify the area of your body that is most likely to house a critter and then choose an affirmation from this link. Make certain you read why you would say an affirmation 40 times a day for 40 days.

Crossing your knees when you sit is not a healthy way to sit. First, it contributes to back pain because you are torquing your back and secondly, it builds up pressure in the legs. If you feel the need to make those knees touch, then cross your ankles and press your knees together. It's actually quite comfortable and reduces that need to cross the knees.

All you need is 15 minutes to give your windows a little bit of Love. A little bit of Love is better than no Love at all. Use 15 minutes today to clean the windows that you use the most. That might be the side door and bedroom window. It might be the front door and the back window. It doesn't matter. Give yourself a clearer vision on Life by cleaning a few windows today. Ya' never know, you might end up cleaning a few more.

There are few people who do not shave something on their body. You can save money by using shaving cream alternatives such as bar soap (glycerin is the best), hair conditioner, shampoo, shea butter, moisturizing lotion, even dish soap in a real pinch. You can use oils to such as almond oil, olive oil or baby oil but oils may make it harder to clean the razor. Baby oil will also stop the bleeders (nicks) in their tracks by serving as protection between the skin and the razor.

Work on your timing. Kids do not like the rug to be yanked underneath them, so why should you? Think about it. If you tell a child, in 30 minutes 'this' will happen, then in 15 minutes 'this' will happen, then in 5 minutes 'this' will happen, they are better prepared for 'it' to happen (like bedtime or the bus will arrive). It's the lack of awareness of time that gets us into trouble. Use this same awareness about time on yourself and your timing will not only be relaxed, it will be 'impeccable timing'.
