Clean Home, Clean Mind
Author: Melissa Davies  | Posted: 18-08-2007 | Views: 19 | Rating: (55)  (?) 
I’ve always thought that cleaning is a great way for me to clear my mind. I just relax and get right into the task. For me, it’s a type of meditation; I simply stop thinking and focus into the here and now. Not only is it a great way for me to spend some time in the moment by myself, but I also get the reward of having a sparkling clean house at the end of it.
I’ve always enjoyed exercising. Whether I’m dancing, walking, doing yoga, or aerobics, I find activity to be a great stress reliever. This is why I love cleaning the house; it provides a great workout. Even if I don’t clean the entire house, on days when I’ve already exercised or find that I’m worn out, I’ll just spot clean (which requires very little energy). Wiping a counter space, or sweeping a dirty area of the floor can make a huge difference to how clean your house looks and feels.
Spot cleaning can help you put off your actual full-out cleaning for quite awhile. It doesn’t take much to make a bed after getting up in the morning or washing a few dishes after a meal. Just a small task like picking up an item or two that are lying around on the floor can really change the whole living space. For me, I find that it’s these small tasks that ultimately help me avoid a cluttered and chaotic household, as well as a cluttered and chaotic frame of mind.
In all honesty, I just find myself more comfortable when my environment is fairly mess free. Now that I have a newborn child in my life, I know that I am not going to have all the time in the world for cleaning. However, I learn tricks where and when I can. This is where the World Wide Web comes in handy; having information at my fingertips whenever I need it has really given me a lot of ideas.
I like to take helpful advice wherever I can, and hopefully I have provided you with some useful information as well. There are lots of household cleaning techniques and tips out there and these are a few that I have found particularly useful. Happy Cleaning!

Should i ask for an appetite surpressor to help with hunger pains??
By: faith mackenzie | 02-09-2008
When I started a diet last week, I weighed 212 lbs. I lost 3 lbs in a week by just eating 1200 calories a day. I feel constantly hungry even though my meals are large and well balanced. I weigh everything and keep note of each meal and the total the calories at the end of each day. A typical meal for lunch might be: 100 grms of boiled chicken, 100 grms cooked carrots, 100 grms courgette, 100 grms potatoes, 1 weightwatchers yogart, 1 piece of fruit weighing 100 grms. Dinner is usally the same type of thing, but i may have 100 grms of lean hamburger mince or fish with the same amount of vegetables. I have 100 grms of sorbert as a desert. This usually amounts to a well balanced 400 cal diet at each sitting. breakfast is 40 grms of cereal, milk, a banana, coffee with milk and sugar and two rice cakes with a smear marmite and low fat cream cheese. You could hardly say that i am starving myself! I am 5'6 l/2 inches tall. Should I ask the doctor for an appetite surpressor or will the feeling of being constantly hungry go away in time.....I am retired and just do normal house chores and a little gardening during the day. I read from the above readers that i could in fact increase my calorie intake to perhaps 1500 cals a day. what do you think? i would appreciate your ideas. I would like to lose at least 15 kilos before christmas. I know I should lose 30 kilos, but I would like to keep the goal within reach for my temperament and spirit! many thanks, F
