Poor memory can strike individuals at any age, and from children to the elderly, a lapse in short-term or long-term memory can bring with it a number of health issues, both mentally and physically. Just as with any muscle, “exercising” your brain can improve its functionality in many ways, including those related to memory. Here are 5 tips for boosting your memory at any age.
No need to add any fluff to this one; we’re getting right to the point. Tavolino’s, one of our favorite spots in New Orleans, is open for take-out. They re-opened yesterday and we were there to greet them. Alana has been craving their goods for quite some time and I don’t think anyone can blame her. They make some of the best pizza in the city, their drink selection is one-of-a-kind, and the atmosphere is hard to match. They have a few socially distanced tables available out front, but take-out was the most popular option, according to our observations last night.
Happy Tuesday, or Wednesday depending on where you live in this big beautiful world.
If you’re currently experiencing summer, any anywhere near where we live in New Orleans, you’re probably being overrun by mosquitoes, Japanese beetles, and termites. It isn’t fun to spend time outside at night, even with all the fans and Citronella candles you can find in your barren-shelved grocery stores. Add the totally miserable stress of living during a very challenging time and being under quarantine doesn’t help one bit, as you earn to escape.
About two months ago, we were all living in a world full of uncertainty and while that hasn’t necessarily changed much, there are some fitness facilities that are re-opening across the country. Whether these gyms open to their full capacity or not, many won’t feel comfortable returning yet. Nearly a month ago, many of the online fitness manufacturers were out of stock on nearly every product. People were buying massive amounts to resell locally with huge markups and home gyms were growing quickly. While those markups are still growing in some places, there have been and will continue to be normal deals.
No matter how much disposable income you have, and whether you’re in the middle of a pandemic or not, you should never pay a meal delivery service for fast food.
The quarantine caused by the coronavirus pandemic has been one of the most stressful events in many people’s lives. You’re not sure when it’s safe to go out, you never know who could by carrying the virus, and there’s no clear end in sight with a vaccine still in development. With all your favorite stores, bars, cafes, and restaurants closed, there’s seemingly nowhere to go. So, you’re stuck inside reading, streaming endless online content, and chatting over video chat with friends.
It’s totally understandable if that’s left you a little stressed out. In this post, we’ll walk you through what you need to do to reduce your stress levels and make it through quarantine feeling calm and relaxed, even in spite of the raging global pandemic.
The COVID-19 virus was declared a global pandemic earlier this year. The respiratory disease spreads through droplets contained in the bodily fluids of an infected person. The illness spreads very fast and has more than 4 million confirmed cases so far. The reason for stopping it’s spread is difficult is because patients can be asymptomatic. This means that a person can be infected but not feel sick. In such a situation they might infect other people unknowingly. The key to overcoming the virus is being educated about it and take actions that help stop it’s spread until a vaccine can be developed.
Running can change your life. Running and walking are, in terms of technique, similar. The difference is that in walking, at one point both feet are on the ground, and in running there is a phase where both feet are in the air at some point. Running is an extension of walking. This guide for beginners in running will show you how to start and how to make running a daily habit.
Exercises of any type are highly beneficial to you, both on a physical and mental level. You simply need to find the exercises you like and that work the best for your body and fitness goals and you can start your healthier lifestyle. However, there has always been a debate on whether working out at the gym or outdoors is better for you. Both of these environments have their pros and cons, and it will be up to you to decide based on your preferences.
We are what we eat, which is a simple way of saying that the food we eat directly impacts our health, our mood, and our physical shape. Having a healthy relationship with food means that we can get all the vitamins and nutrients that we need, in portion sizes that our bodies can process. Without this balance, our health and wellbeing can fall out of tandem, and we suffer as a result.
If you don’t naturally have a good relationship with your food, then it can feel like a challenge to reconfigure what you eat and how you feel about your meals, but with this guide, you can start your journey on the right track.
