Mercy
Matthew
5:7 (NKJV)
Blessed are the merciful, For they shall
obtain mercy.
Thought
For The Day:
Lord of
mercy, thank You for recalling me to the greatness of being merciful. Help me
to know what it means to lay down my life for the people around me. Then
motivated me to action, so that when this day ends, I will be able to know that
Your mercy has been expressed through me. Help me Lord, to be merciful!
~Amen~

Balance
Exercises For Seniors And The Elderly
Balance
Exercises for seniors and the elderly like the grapevine below, are essential
to maintain or improve your current state of balance.
All you need is
comfortable loose fitting clothing, and
a pair of smooth bottom shoes to wear so you won't catch your feet. Read on
then give it a try.
This
exercise is a must for age-related balance problems. It is critical that you
work on increasing your ability to safely perform your daily chores by
practicing these balance exercises.
With the
introduction of this balance exercise in our series of 12 exercises, we are
performing not only a moving exercise but a sideways moving exercise. This is a
challenging balance exercise. If you are not dancing regularly and have less
than good balance, then you may need help.
If that is
the case, it is better to start by holding on to the back of a chair when
attempting to perform this exercise.
Better yet, call into the kitchen and get a family member out here!
That's right. Put them to good use.

Tips for a “Sculpted” Lean Body
5.
► Decrease the amount of carbohydrates in your diet:
If you want
to build muscle without gaining fat, I advise you cut down on the level of
carbohydrates in your diet. With a high carb dietary approach, you prevent your
body from using body fat for fuel and actually encourage the laying down of new
body fat. That’s
Decreased
Lipolysis (use of fat for energy)
Increased
Lipogenesis (creation of fat)
This is the
bane of every bodybuilder on the planet. There is the erroneous belief that in
order to gain muscle, you have to gain fat too – wrong. You can build muscle,
in fact more muscle, with controlled carbohydrate nutrition than with the
standard high carb, low-fat diet.
Carbs are
important for muscle growth but only at the right time. I encourage you to read
an article I wrote previously for a full breakdown of the best bodybuilding
diet on the planet.
A Healthy Menu For
TUESDAY
The
American Academy of Family Physicians recommends low-fat and fat-free dairy
foods as part of a nutrient-rich diet. A calcium-rich breakfast includes 2
slices whole-wheat toast with 1 slice of low-fat cheese, a medium banana and 1
cup skim milk. A turkey sandwich--3 oz. of lean deli meat turkey on 2 slices of
whole wheat bread with lettuce, tomato and mustard--with 1 oz. of pretzels and
cucumber slices makes an easy lunch. Twenty almonds are a nutrient-rich
afternoon snack. A heart-healthy dinner may consist of 4 oz. grilled salmon, 1
cup couscous, 1 cup steamed carrots and a tossed salad with low-fat salad
dressing. A 1/2 cup of light ice cream is a 150-calorie evening snack.
