Perhaps it is time for your other hand to do some work. If you’re right handed, try using your left hand for daily activities and vice versa if you’re left-handed. Start by brushing your teeth with your less dominant hand until you get the hang of it. Then, work your way up to a more complex tasks, such as eating. This is an exercise in which you know your goal but, must do it in a new and demanding learning context. Doing this activity can drive your brain to make positive changes. Just think of millions of neurons learning new tricks while you establish better control of the other hand. This way you can surely do better playing your PS3.

Benefits of chewing a gum!
October 19, 2008 By
Chewing a gum may do more than relieve dry mouth or aid indigestion. A new British study says chewing gum can also help patients whose colons were partially or totally removed to recover their intestinal functions sooner. In the trials, patients who chewed sugarless gum for five to 45 minutes three times a day after abdominal surgery were found to pass gas 0.66 day earlier and have a bowel movement 1.10 days earlier than those who didn’t chew gum. Gum chewers also spent less time in the hospital. Gum chewing is believed to stimulate nerves in the digestive system, triggering the release of gastrointestinal hormones that increase salivation and secretions from the pancreas.
Smart Skin care!
October 19, 2008 By
Drink eight glasses of water a day to maintain your skin’s elasticity and suppleness. Go for sparkling, mineral or tap water not sodas, alcohol, or other beverages.
Clean your beauty tools. Brushes, sponges, and other make up applications get dirty, harbouring germs that can trigger skin irritations and breakouts. If acne occurs, treat is with laser acne treatment to give you more confidence to face anybody. To avoid breakout, clean tools at least twice a month. Soak them in warm water with mild liquid detergent or baby shampoo for about 10 minutes. Rinse and dry gently with a towel. Let them dry thoroughly before reusing.
Don’t give in to stress. Worrying too much can affect not just your skin but your overall health. Set a quiet time to meditate or relax. Sleep early and avoid accumulated fluid from producing facial puffiness and eye bugs by lying on your back.
holidays is not a reason!

Well, you don’t have to give up your regular routine just because of the holidays. If you don’t have time to go to the gym, take a daily 30 minute brisk walk around the neighborhood or a safe area near the office using a good shoe like one of those MBT shoes. Perform deep breathing exercise while in a traffic. Strength train at home using the canned fruit cocktail as weights before you turn it into fruit salad. Very simple but really works.
No days off for calcium!

Skip your calcium supplement every now and then and you could be missing out on big benefits. When researchers reviewed 17 studies, they found that people who consistently took calcium reduced their risk of bone fractures by 24 percent. But if supplement users missed doses more than 20 percent of the time, they cut the payoff by half. You get the most protection by taking at least 1,200 milligrams of calcium and 800 IU of vitamin D but only when you do it daily.
