Is Your Punta Gorda Child Anxious About Exams?

Posted on May 21, 2013 by liveforchocolate

Is Your Punta Gorda Child Anxious About Exams?

Though stress can be brought on by a variety of different events, school tests are a common cause of nerves and anxiety for kids in the Naples area. Since stress that isn’t reduced or dealt with properly can be bad for a child’s health, here are a few pointers for helping your child deal with test stress.

Your child may manifest their stress in different ways. Some kids lose sleep or their appetite, while others may be irritable or seem depressed. Kids with excess stress often complain of pains in the stomach or headaches.

Speak with your child about what they are feeling and stay in communication with the teachers and administrators at your child’s Sarasota, Tampa, or Miami school. Explain to your child that nervousness is normal in these circumstances. Help them catalogue all the ways they have prepared so they can feel more in control.

Make sure to eliminate as much stress in their home life by being well-organized and flexible so they will have a calm place to study.

Remember to support all your child’s efforts and never be critical.

Continue encouraging healthy habits for your child, like sufficient sleep, healthy, regular meals for proper nutrition, and active exercise.

Avoid Facelift Surgery, Try These Simple Face Lift Exercises Shared by Dr. Gordon Pedersen for Just 4 Minutes A Day

Posted on May 21, 2013 by liveforchocolate

pedersenI had the honor to hear Dr. Gordon Pedersen speak this past Saturday. He was sharing his new Xophoria anti-aging skin care cream, cleanser and serum. We were able to try out the Xophoria cream on one hand. Within 30 minutes, we all noticed a difference between the one hand and the other. Dr. Pedersen goes on to show us his hands.  One hand he had been using the Xophoria cream and on the other he had not for over 4 months. The difference was significant, especially with getting rid of his age spots and discoloration.  WOW!

Everyone who attended his meeting in Sarasota, FL was anxious to order the Xophoria skin care line. He explained it is the first neurocosmetic and not like anything else on the market. He also shared this is the most affordable compared to retail and wholesale competition once you factor in the size of the products. The Xophoria skin care cream is a 50 ml bottle which lasts quite a while.

Anyway, while at this event, Dr. Pedersen explained that you can receive a 50% benefit to your face, similar to a surgical facelift, just by doing these face lift exercises 4 minutes every day. View the Dr. Pedersen video below so you can start doing the exercises as well.

6 Fun Day-Off-School Activities For Miami Kids

Posted on May 17, 2013 by liveforchocolate

Top Home Businesses In Sarasota

Most of the elementary schools in Naples seem to have more random days off than in years past. Sometimes these days can catch parents off guard. What to do when your kids are going to be home all day in the middle of the week?! Well, if you didn’t schedule appointments with your Punta Gorda pediatrician or dentist for a check-up, then try one of these fun ideas to keep your kids active and healthy on their days off.

1. Help them make a treasure hunt, indoors our out, depending on the weather. Once they’re done they can invite friends over to find the treasure (the treasure can be almost anything, since the real prize is following the clues!). When the hunt is over, serve a small picnic for the hungry hunters.

2. Hold an art exhibit. Get out the paints and modeling clay and then let your kids spend the morning creating works of art to display.

3. Healthy kids are active kids, so help them plan a kid Olympics! Give them the freedom to choose how to judge and award medals, then sit back and watch them wear themselves out!

4. Have a family history day. Encourage your kids to write in their journals and ask them to share some favorite family stories that you can record in their own words. If you have stories of your ancestors, this is a good time to share them with your kids.

5. Go visit a local Miami, Tampa, or Sarasota museum, historical site, petting zoo, or aquarium. Remember, this is a day to do something with your kids that you’ve always been putting off, so do it!

6. Visit a resident of a local Naples convalescent home. Some elderly men and women rarely get visitors. Your kids will feel good about brightening someone’s day. They could bring them flowers or an original piece of art. (See activity number 2.) My name is Lynette Henk and I want to help Naples families to raise healthy, happy kids. Issues such as proper nutrition for children and childhood obesity in Sarasota concern me. I am the owner of a Naples area home business that sells power squares.

Wellness Director for Philip Stein Watch shares Natural Ways to Improve Health and Prevent Cancer

Posted on May 15, 2013 by liveforchocolate

ChocopiecesI just watched a clip from NBC Today in New York (NY) featuring Dr. Jeff Gardere.  Dr. Gardere is the wellness director for Philip Stein Watches.  Philip Stein is known for making a watch with natural frequency technology that has been worn by the likes of Oprah and other famous individuals.  I had heard about the health benefits of Philip Stein watches and this caught my attention. While watching this clip, I also noticed he mentioned that Dark Chocolate has some serious health benefits as well.  Dr. Gardere mentions that Dark Chocolate is an antioxidant and states “Dark Chocolate fights cancer“.

I was excited to hear that as I have been eating Xocai cold pressed chocolate regularly for over 3 years now.  The Xocai chocolate I eat is raw chocolate, cold pressed and not heated like traditional chocolate making it the highest antioxidant chocolate on the planet.  I have posted the youtube clip below.

NIH Children’s Check-Up Guidelines In Naples

Posted on May 14, 2013 by liveforchocolate

NIH Children's Check-Up Guidelines In NaplesAs SW Florida parents, we know our children’s health includes physical, mental and social well-being. Most Naples parents are aware of the essentials in keeping their kids healthy; providing nutritious meals, making sure they get adequate sleep and physical activity, and guaranteeing their safety.

It is also necessary for our Naples kids to receive regular checkups with their Florida health care providers. Not only will these visits track your Naples child’s development, but will aid in averting health problems.

According to the NIH, besides regular checkups, school-age Miami and Punta Gorda children should also see their Boca Grande doctor for:

  • Significant weight gain or loss
  • Sleep problems or change in behavior
  • Fever higher than 102
  • Rashes or skin infections
  • Frequent sore throats
  • Breathing problems

I would love to share more children’s health information with you. Please call me today!

Flu Shot Guidelines For Miami Kids

Posted on May 10, 2013 by liveforchocolate

Flu Shot Guidelines For Miami Kids

Every year as winter approaches, many Miami parents wonder if they should get their kids a flu shot.

Everyone gets the flu, right? Is it that big of a deal?

In most cases, the flu is an inconvenience, but not detrimental beyond missing a few days of school. However, Miami pediatricians caution that it is extremely important for high risk kids to get a flu shot. Ditto if your child is in regular contact with a high risk person.

What qualifies a child as high risk? Miami experts say that chronic medical conditions such as diabetes or asthma puts a child at greater risk because the flu can contribute to serious complications. Many Miami doctors also recommend flu shots for all children under five years old. Miami experts advise getting your child’s flu vaccination as early as possible, in August or September or as soon as it is available, to protect them through the entire season which generally lasts from October to April.

Remember that two shots are required for children under the age of eight, given four weeks apart, for full protection your first year of getting vaccinated. Just one shot per year is needed after that.

Flumist is a nasal spray vaccine that can be given to healthy children ages two and up, an option that can be more child friendly. Side effects from either method of vaccination may include runny nose, muscle aches, vomiting, or low grade fever. The new flu vaccines offer protection from both H1N1 and the seasonal flu.

For more information on current Miami children’s health issues or to learn more about my power squares health and wellness business, call me today!

Probiotics in Cold Pressed Raw Chocolate May Be Able To Help You Lose Weight

Posted on May 10, 2013 by liveforchocolate

xobioticThere is more evidence now than ever that probiotics may play a role in helping you lose weight.  According to the Dr. Mercola article “How the bacteria in your gut is linked to the size of your waistline”  ”Multiple studies have shown that obese people have different intestinal bacteria than slim people, and regardless of weight most people do not have the optimal balance of good and bad bacteria in their intestines. This imbalance can wreak havoc on your health in many ways, and yes, it may even contribute to overweight and/or difficulty in shedding excess weight.”

The Huffington Post was also quoted as saying “But studies show that probiotics can help with a great deal more — warding off infection and boosting immune systems, as well as helping to improve women’s health and perhaps even fighting obesity.”  The CNN Article “Can Supplements block benefits of probiotics?” had this to say “also Surprisingly, chocolate is also a good delivery system, so chocolate products created specifically to deliver probiotics (instead of just throwing them in for marketing purposes) are a tasty and effective option, as long as they aren’t loaded with too much sugar and fat.”

MXI Corporation, the makers of Xobiotic cold pressed raw chocolate include a patented strain of Lactobacillus Casei )3 Billion Microorganisms per 3 squares)  This raw vegan cold pressed chocolate is sweetened with acai and blueberry.  Unlike traditional processed chocolate, high in fat, waxes and fillers, the Xobiotic offers 84,777 Total ORACfn score (antioxidant value) and flavonoids of 1,904 per 3 pieces.  In addition, each piece is only 57 calories.  Dark Chocolate with Probiotics helps to keep digestive system healthy and helps to maintain a healthy intestinal balance.  The Xobiotic is made with belgian chocolate and is yummy.  It is my favorite and I make sure to enjoy 3 pieces every day.  Chocopieces

Abercrombie & Fitch Openly Discriminate on anyone who wears over a size 10 in clothing. Should There Be A Boycott?

Posted on May 10, 2013 by liveforchocolate

xobackAnyone who thought Abercrombie & Fitch clothes were cool might want to think about the message their east coast ivy league clothes send before stepping foot in the store.  Mike Jeffries, Abercrombie & Fitch CEO, openly admits they only make clothes in size 10 or less because they only want skinny and beautiful people to wear their clothing.  To assume that anyone over a size 10 is not beautiful or that everyone that is skinny is beautiful, is quite short sighted.  Regardless of your size, the message this sends to teenagers and young adults is not a good one.

In the UK, the average size is 16 and in the US, the average size is a 14.  Clearly Abercrombie & Fitch does not want average.  Thankfully there are many amazing designers willing to cater to the average sized woman and above.  I think about women like Karen Carpenter who died battling an eating disorder.  Karen Carpenter was 5′ 4″ (163 cm) in height and before dieting weighed 145 pounds.  In that standard, she would not have been able to fit in Abercrombie clothing.  By September, 1975,  her weight was 91 pounds (41 kg; 6 st 7 lb) which would then have allowed her to easily wear the Abercrombie brand. She died at age 32 from heart failure caused by complications related to her Anorexia eating disorder.

Affordable Summer Vacation Tips for Grandparents when Kids and Grandkids Come To Visit

Posted on May 8, 2013 by liveforchocolate
  • flor1Summer is often the time when children are able to visit parents and bring the grandkids. This is a great opportunity for grandma and grandpa to spend quality time with the grandkids. Unfortunately this can also be costly. Many grandparents live on a fixed social security income and possibly a pension. With the increased costs of gasoline, food, prescription drugs and medical costs, it can be difficult to make ends meet let alone cover the cost of visiting relatives.

Many grandparents are unaware of a little known Passport program that gets you free admission to many science museums and botanical gardens.   Simply purchase an annual family or grandparent  membership at your local museum that has a reciprocal agreement with many other museums. This agreement allows you free admission on every visit to 300+science centers, museums and botanical gardens worldwide (21 in Florida).

This is a great opportunity for grandparents to affordably enjoy quality time with the grandchildren over the summer as well as a great program for moms and dads to also spend quality time with the kids. The program is called the ASTC Passport Program.  I am able to obtain a family membership at the local Charlotte County Historical Museum in Port Charlotte, Florida for just $35 a year for a family membership.  Our local museum also offers a Grandparent membership that includes a spouse and all grandchildren 18 and under.  With this membership, you will have plenty of places to visit this summer affordably.2
