![]() How much social life do you really need in a week? How much is enough to fill your cup? And how much is too much and leaves you with 0 me-time? Only you get to decide how much of your time and energy you want/need to invest in this area of your life. ![]() We have an entire module dedicated to learning how to say ‘no’ in the From Clutter To Calm course. Saying no to someone else is saying YES to yourself. Meet up with them to fuel your ‘positive connections’ tank. Make a list of the people who bring out the best in you.If you start scrolling on social media or watching Netflix, you let your brain associate ‘desk’ with ‘social media’. Train your brain and make it understand that desk = work. What do you see in front of you? A nice clear (inspiring) wall? A messy living room? A beautiful garden? Make sure that whatever is in front of you while working is clean, bright, inspiring.For everyday use? - Place is beautifully on a corner of your desk. Only sometimes necessary? - Give it a fixed spot in a drawer, a little basket, out of sight. Not necessary at all? - Put it where it belongs or throw it away. “Is what I have on my desk truly necessary for everyday use?” Look at your desk, right now, and ask yourself this question.Be completely present with what you’re seeing, what your hands are doing and what the surface and texture of your things feel like. Use tidying up as a mindfulness exercise.Your mind thinks it takes forever and you don’t have time for it. Show yourself it doesn’t take long at all to fold your clothes or to do the dishes. Take 5-minute breaks from work (or from anything you’re doing at home) and use these 5 minutes to put things where they belong, wash some dishes, brush your dog, ….On the podcast, I will share my personal journey of how I went from the messiest person in my household, to: “Maya, your house is so cozy and tidy!” Over the years as I was looking for more inner peace and mental calmness, I could see my relationship with clutter transform little bit by little bit. The kitchen table would become un-usable in only one day, stuffed with my homework, random toys, my headphones, my charger, a plate with some leftovers, a half-empty (or half-full) cup of tea, my hairbrush … Literally everything I had used that day. I was that kid who leaves stuff hanging around literally everywhere. This is a side of me you haven’t learned about yet, and I’m ready to tell you about my own decluttering journey + give you 12 simple ways to declutter your home and simplify your life, starting today. You might think I’m all structured and organized, but no no no. ![]() Believe it or not, I used to be a very messy person.

Serving as a museum, performance space, and education center all rolled into one makes the Center stand out on the world stage. headquarters for UNIMA, the world’s largest puppetry organization. The Center also houses a museum with a 4,000-piece collection, provides more than 1,600 hours of educational programming annually, hosts well over 100,000 visitors each season, and acts as the U.S. The others are presented by puppeteers from across the United States and around the globe. ![]() It hosts around 17 shows each season on its two stages, about half a dozen of which are original productions. That was when Newsweek decreed the ensemble “ one of the most exciting companies in American theater.” Founded by Vincent Anthony 40 years ago this month, it is the largest nonprofit dedicated to puppetry in the nation and one of only a few such international organizations. “They would call us and ask, ‘Is anybody coming there?’ because they were like crickets. “I felt bad for the other venues,” Rhodes says. Some area attractions actually lost business during the Games, she says, but the Center was overwhelmed, adding midnight performances to accommodate demand. In fact, during the 1996 Olympics, international visitors flocked to the Center because, as administrative director Lisa Rhodes explains, it wasn’t something they could experience back home. Think about it: Pretty much every major city has universities, professional sports teams, art museums, zoos, ballets, and historic sites, but only Atlanta claims a world-renowned puppetry institution-or Adult Swim. “It looks like Aqua Teen Hunger Force,” someone murmurs.Īnimated junk food isn’t the only thing that the Center for Puppetry Arts has in common with Cartoon Network. ![]() He draws a squiggly oval, then adds facial features suggested by the kids, who are sitting around the room on carpet squares. “Okay, a chicken nugget person,” Zwartjes plays along. “Draw a chicken nugget person!” exclaims camper Emerson.

On this Tuesday afternoon, puppeteer Jeffrey Zwartjes is talking to a roomful of curious tweens about how to invent a character. ![]() It’s unfortunate how many people have been misled and told they need medication for their “high cholesterol”, without regard for their HDL/LDL ratios. If your overall cholesterol has been flagged as “high”, it’s critical to understand that your HDL level (the “good” cholesterol) factors into that total number. High Intensity Interval Training and Weight Training are ideal for this purpose.Īdditionally, you’ll want to up your intake of omega-3 fatty acids from either a high-quality fish oil or wild-caught fish, like salmon. We also recommend adopting an exercise regime that helps support normal blood sugar levels. If your triglyceride levels are in the “concerning” or “warning” zone, the first thing you’ll want to do is to identify and limit the carbs you’re eating-especially those from sugar and alcohol. …and super-specifically fructose from sugar, fruit juice and too much fruit.Īlcohol also negatively affects triglyceride levels due to its sugary nature and impact on the liver. What Causes High Triglycerides?Īs noted above, for years we were told “bad fats” from animal products caused “high cholesterol” which causes heart disease.īut we now know the real culprit behind high triglycerides is carbs… Why do we care about fatty liver with regards to heart health?įatty liver is commonly associated with metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance, both of which increase your risk for cardiovascular disease. 150 and up-the higher you push those triglycerides, the higher your chances of heart disease and fatty liver.100-150-if you’re in this zone, that means there’s not a problem yet, but there may be one brewing.Less than 100, and if your triglycerides levels can be lower than your HDL levels that’s optimal.Optimal/Functional Ranges of Triglycerides: The reason is, the smaller particles can get into your arteries where they have the potential to create harmful plaque. Why do we care about size over total number?īecause new research has shown that larger LDL particles are more favorable to heart health than smaller particles. When we’re looking at the results of your triglyceride test, the main thing we want to know is: what size is your LDL cholesterol? Now that we’ve covered some of the main issues hindering effective modern heart disease prevention and detection, let’s break down the 3 markers of the Fasting Lipid Panel: Marker #1: Triglycerides This new information has inspired many progressive healthcare providers and functional medicine doctors, to order a greater variety of labs and focus their attention on new markers. New research has shed light on the antiquated ideas that all dietary cholesterol is “bad”, and even that all “bad” cholesterol (AKA: LDL) is harmful (more on the research behind this coming up). #3: Medicine has been looking at cholesterol all wrong. Sadly, most doctors remain unaware of this connection and the causes of chronic inflammation and thus, often miss the telltale signs early on. #2: We’ve just recently discovered the connection between inflammation and heart disease.Ī growing body of evidence now suggests if your body is chronically inflammed, that can have a direct impact on the health of your metabolic and circulatory systems. Unhealthy fats can play a role in heart health, but it’s not the fats you think…more on this to come. Yet many people remain unaware that sugar, NOT FAT, is one of the worst foods you can consume if you’re concerned about heart disease. Per a published study in the November 2016 edition of JAMA and as reported by NPR News, 50 years ago the sugar industry paid off Harvard researchers to suppress their findings on sugar and instead, point the blame at fat. Here are the 3 big issues we see in functional medicine as being behind this seemingly unconquerable epidemic: #1: We’ve been told to fear fats, when the truth is SUGAR has been one of heart’s worst enemies all along. Why, with all the advances in modern medicine and our deeper understanding of the roles fat, cholesterol and stress play in heart health, is heart disease still afflicting the young and old?Īnd, most importantly, why aren’t these early warning signs being detected in our annual checkups?Īctually, a few things don’t add up when it comes to heart disease prediction, prevention and treatment. ![]() The Fasting Lipid Panel is one of the most valuable series of lab tests for gaining an accurate picture of your heart health and cholesterol levels.īut its value lies in understanding what those different lab markers mean (triglycerides, HDL, and LDL) within the context of the entire lipid panel and other key aspects of health.ĭespite all the advances in early detection and treatments, heart disease is still America’s number one killer. ![]() Incidentally, the alternate builds allow you to create a Treasure Chest or Painting Easel, both of which can be seen below. The is a cool addition and looks like a couple of past LEGO City sets, but it does feel a little out of place, possibly a tiny treasure chest or clamshell would have been a better choice. The designer has slipped in a clear nod to Finding Nemo, with both a Clownfish and Blue Tang fish. A special mention must go to the choice of fish included in the tank. I particularly like the coral and plants as they use interesting elements in unusual colours to capture their organic originality. Each of the builds is simple but very different resulting in a visually pleasing array of colours and shapes in the tank. The contents of the tank is a mixture of fish, coral, plants and a mini-sub. This results in a sturdy area for the brick-built fish to dwell. Obviously, well I say obviously, there are no sides to the tank, instead, you construct the frame of it, along with the base. Although the tank is a rather large aspect of the set, much of the detailed build is focused on the content within. In basic terms, the set is a rectangular structure filled with fish and plants. Instead, the actual set sits between the two. I’m not sure what I expected this set to be, a fish tank obviously but for some reason, I pictured a fishbowl or a highly detailed aquarium. Availability:, LEGO Stores & LEGO Retailers.Kids can create a Fish Tank toy packed with cool fish, then rebuild it into an easel or treasure chest toy, or even use their imaginations to create something new! This LEGO Creator 3in1 set offers 3 brilliantly detailed models to build and play with. The glassless tank boasts 5 different vibrant fishes: a clown fish, a regal blue tang, a yellow tang, a cardinal fish and an anthias fish, as well as a mini submarine, some coral and an aquatic plant. Kids can dive into their own underwater adventures with this LEGO® Creator 3in1 Fish Tank (31122) buildable toy. But is that a good or bad thing? Let’s find out and take a closer look at set 31120: Fish Tank. However, imagination can be a terrible thing and the actual set wasn’t what I was expecting. ![]() After all, we have recently been treated to some rather cool leftfield sets. When this was first rumoured I was intrigued to see how the set would turn out. Continuing the LEGO® Creator 3-in-1 Summer set reviews it’s time to take a gander at the Creator 3-in-1 Fish Tank set. ![]() While building the rectangle A made it lean to one side. I gave her a high five and she was thrilled she came up with this discovery on her own. “The rectangle is LONGER!” A shouted when she discovered the difference. I asked her in each picture which was bigger – the square or the rectangle? After realizing her mistake, A again used a pretzel stick to measure the sides of the square and rectangle. I grabbed a piece of chalk and drew a square house with a rectangle door on it and a rectangle skyscraper with small square windows. “A rectangle is bigger than a square,” A said after a moment of thinking. “What is the difference between a square and a rectangle?” I asked A. ![]() When we got to the square and rectangle, we talked again about side lengths. We continued counting sides and vertices and building more 2D shapes. She thought for a moment, then bit off a piece of pretzel and proceeded to build the isosceles triangle. “How should we build the isosceles triangle if it has 2 long sides and 1 short one?” I asked A. These were new terms for A and I was not expecting her to memorize them – I just wanted her to notice that not all triangles are the same. That one is called an isosceles triangle.” “The other has two sides that are the same and one shorter side. “Yes, this one has equal sides and is called an equilateral triangle,” I explained. She noticed the second triangle had longer sides but the top triangle had sides that were the same. When A replied they were the same I had her use a pretzel to measure each of the sides. Are they the same or different?” I asked. Then, she wrote the totals on the blank lines. She was pretty disappointed when I said, “No.” I placed the triangle on top of the one I’d drawn with marker and asked her to count the sides and vertices again. “Can I eat it now?” she asked as soon as she finished building her first triangle. I had toothpicks on hand just in case the thicker pretzels were too troublesome, but A didn’t want to swap them. I demonstrated how she could build the shapes using the marshmallows and pretzels.Ī couldn’t wait to start building and even though the pretzels were a little tricky to manipulate, she kept at it. “And here is a bowl of sides,” I continued, passing her the pretzels. “Ok, here is a bowl of vertices,” I explained, handing her the bowl of marshmallows. ![]() I showed her how to label the vertices with a red dot and helped her label the vertices on the rest of the shapes. Next, I explained that the spot where 2 sides meet to make a corner is called a vertex. “Yes! And can you point to and count the sides of this triangle?” I asked pointing to the first triangle. “Triangle, triangle, square, rectangle,” A easily replied. “Can you tell me the name of these shapes?” I asked as I pointed to each one. Then, I called a very eager A over the play. ![]() I labeled each one with its name then left a spaces for A to write out how many sides and vertices each one had. That’s why I decided to start with the simplest 2D shapes she could build: the triangle, square and rectangle. Since my daughter’s knowledge of geometry at this point consists of basic shape names, I wanted to help her look more closely at shapes to notice how they are built how many sides and vertices they have, whether they have parallel lines or perpendicular ones, and how long their sides are. I quickly drew four 2D shapeson a sheet of card stock and labeled each one (equilateral triangle, isosceles triangle, square and rectangle). Pretzel sticks (toothpicks are easier to build with so grab them if you have some on hand).To prep, I gathered together a few simple supplies: Looking for more fun with shapes!?

The PS5 was released in North America, Australia, Japan, South Korea, and New Zealand on November 12, 2020. PS5 release date: Out now (released on November 12/19, 2020).Whichever PS5 model you choose, though, we can wholeheartedly recommend the console as a welcome upgrade over the PS4, and an exciting portal to new-gen gameplay. We've pitted the two PS5 consoles against each other in this PS5 vs PS5 Digital Edition comparison, so you can determine which one is right for you. The PS5 Digital Edition is exactly the same as the standard PS5 but removes the 4K Blu-Ray drive to offer a cheaper price point at $399 / £389.99 / AU$649.95 and a more symmetrical look. The PS5 feels like it was built for ease of use as well as pure power. But you'll also appreciate the subtle touches like the built-in microphone on the controller that can serve as a quick stand-in for a headset. There's big upgrades like the super-fast NVMe SSD and powerful GPU that enable higher frame rates and ray tracing. It's a console that seamlessly bridges the gap between the last generation and the new, so you probably won't need to boot up your PS4 ever again. The PS5 caters to people ready to jump into the new generation of video games, alongside PS4 owners who don’t want to leave their collection of games behind. The lack of 1440p support continues to frustrate but we'd still fully recommend picking a PS5 if you can find one. There are a few outstanding issues, though. Sony has made a few pleasing changes via system updates, and the quality of its exclusive games continues to impress. We've updated our PS5 review to reflect our initial impressions after spending two years with the console. Sony PlayStation 5 (SSD) at Dell for $499.99.The end result is a console that we're impressed with, which is ultimately strengthened by the PlayStation 5's compelling line-up of exclusive games that continues to grow. Backward compatibility also ensures that your old collection of the best PS4 games works on day one. You can still enjoy unbelievably fast load times, significantly better performance, and a greater level of visual fidelity in new and older games alike.įrom a simpler setup to a well-thought-out user interface, Sony has also re-imagined the key parts of the user experience with some pleasing extras to boot: PS Plus Essential members can enjoy a curated selection of games straight away, while Plus Extra and Premium can access an additional Game Catalog and Classics Catalog. ![]() However, you won't need a top-shelf TV to feel the benefits of the PS5’s substantial horsepower. It's an awesome feature we're very happy to see on PS5. With PS5 VRR enabled, the console is able to maintain high framerates, without screen tearing, and with little to no hits to overall performance. VRR (or variable refresh rate) keeps the action running smooth on compatible TVs. Equally fantastic is the addition of VRR support to PS5.
