Even when we know people’s names, why do we go for days without using them? By using someone’s name, you help them feel seen and acknowledged — and that’s an act of kindness. According to kindness.org’s research in collaboration with the University of Oxford, doing a kind act increases happiness, well-being, trust and compassion. And it can have the same powerful effect on those who receive the act. Try it, and put a smile on both your faces. |

Do you ever feel like you want to start fresh after you’ve indulged too much or you’ve been on a cycle of grab-and-go food? If so, you’ve probably been thinking about doing a “detox” or a “cleanse.” While it’s not a bad idea to reign in less healthy eating habits, a cleanse doesn’t have to mean all juices or super strict calorie restriction. Our bodies have natural cleansing systems built to detox all the time. So, instead of starving your body through a liquid diet to combat toxins, try shifting your diet towards whole foods that have a healthy mix of fiber, vegetables and protein.
A dietitian describes how to cleanse the healthy way and prepare your body for a better routine. See her tips on using real food and adequate calories to help your body reboot. |
