Two Brand-New Apps to Match Your Music With Your Pace on Your Next Run
Running and music go together like peanut butter and bananas -- but it's gotta be the right kind of music. There's nothing worse than when you're feeling great and zooming along to Rihanna, and then Johnny Cash just like jumps in with some slow, sad country ballad. (Can you tell my husband and I share an iTunes subscription?) And yes, playlists can -- and do -- solve the slow-jam problem, but sometimes, you just want someone else to do all that curating for you.
(Speaking of music, our annual music issue launched yesterday -- check out this interview with cover star Ke$ha.) (Source: The ND Blog: Notes from the Nutritionis...

Prenatal Checkups and Tests
What You need to Know
Pamela Brawer
Save a Tot
Prenatal care is the care you get while you are pregnant. This care can be provided by a doctor, midwife or other health care professional.
The goal of prenatal care is to monitor the progress of a pregnancy and to identify potential problems before they become serious for either mom or baby.
All mothers-to-be benefit from prenatal care. Women who see a health care provider regularly during pregnancy have healthier babies, are less likely to deliver prematurely, and are less likely to have other serious problems related to pregnancy.
During prenatal visits, the health care p...

There is so much conflicting information out there about what to eat and what not to eat when you are pregnant. Here is a quick guideline of what to eat and what to avoid.
What to Include in Your Diet:

Who Cares? If Anyone Did, I'd Never Know.
Today is my liquids and laxatives day before the surgery! Yay, I've been so looking forward to this day! Kidding, of course. When I went shopping yesterday for things on the list that I could have, one of them was jello. I've always hated jello, but that was the most substantial thing I could eat. I didn't want to make it myself, it's that disgusting to me, so I found some in the deli and bought it. I had to make sure there wasn't any milk product in it because it did seem like there was whipped cream or something mixed in, but the ingredients sounded horrible! I mean, it's just je...

Self Developments 10 Greatest Influencers
In my last post I made mention of a rather long and in some cases highly amusing thread on LinkedIn about the Law of Attraction.
Not only did it give me some great material for that post, but when somebody referred to Tony Robbins as a ‘Sage’ it took me on an entirely different train of thought.
In the self development industry the terms guru, sage and thought-leader are bandied around more freely than straws at a Lindsey Lohan party and I’m not sure how useful they are as they have a tendency to have people rolling their eyes in derision.
However, there are undoubtedly people who are if not necessarily ̵...

journal article layout is worth a million
This article reports on the design and findings of a project concerning the feasibility of a collaborative model to benchmark the marketing of electronic resources in institutions of higher education. This inter-national project gathered 100 libraries to move in lockstep through the process of a typical marketing cycle that included running a brief marketing campaign and reporting findings to each other. The findings show good reasons and strong support for this kind of model. (Source: Organization Monkey)

What Is A Self Limiting Belief?
As I said in the previous post ‘What is The Secret To Success?’, beliefs are not real.
Unless you can get your head round that concept you’re probably going to struggle to make significant change and this post will probably frustrate you.
I sometimes post on a St Louis Rams message board and I’m frequently amazed by the amount of people who think the way they views things, is the only way to view things.
They seem to assume there’s a correlation between how fervently they believe and shout about something and the likelihood of it being true.
There isn’t.
Does God Exist?
Millions of people believe with all t...

Can Aerobic Exercise and Environmental Enrichment Slow Alzheimer's Disease?
In this study, scientists who were already providing wild mice with a running wheel for exercise, decided to add a novel toy or object to explore to their cage each day. The results were amazing. While the mice doing aerobic exercise were less impaired when injected with amyloid beta from Alzheimer’s patients, those mice who were given the novel toys each day were significantly less impaired than those with the aerobic exercise alone.
Could it be that the novelty of going to the gym every day had a significant effect upon Dotty, above and beyond the exercise factor?
It looks like that is a very real possibility. We all...

There’s More Than 50 Shades of Grey
Before I delve into todays post I just wanted to point you toward the ‘videos’ tab that has been added to my navigation bar.
Over the coming weeks I shall be posting a new video every couple of weeks and start to build up a library of videos aimed at helping people get unstuck.
Any feedback welcome as always.
I got asked by a client the other day whether I thought he was an atypical client.
I wasn’t sure how to answer that because I don’t think there is any such thing as a typical client, so by definition there can’t really be an atypical one.
I told him that he had certainly presented me with a challenge...

TV, Violence & Children: More Weak Pediatrics Studies
Did you know that simply watching TV causes harm to children? Well, that’s what the American Academy of Pediatrics would have you believe. And yet, here we are in the sixth decade since TV became popular, and we have not yet seen the end of the world based upon multiple generations that grew up with television as a mainstay.
The latest issue of Pediatrics has two studies — and a bonus editorial! — that suggests television viewing by children is associated with greater criminality and antisocial personality, and that a child’s behavior can be modified by simply changing what they’re watching.
