For Monday...

Tis the season for cold and flu! Before you hibernate yourself within layers of blankets for the rest of the day, consider finishing that book you've always wanted to. If you need any suggestions, I would go for Malcolm Gladwell. I'm just starting to read "What The Dog Saw" which is his latest book.

For Tuesday...

Do your hair and make-up and go on a fashion shoot with some of your most recent shopping purchases from Autumn. Seek out the right location. I really like parks which gives me inspiration.

For Wednesday...

Do you have a peanut butter addiction? Do your heart a favor by switching to almond butter which doesn't have hydrogenated oils and sugar like most peanut butter brands do. Almond butter is composed of three minerals: calcium, potassium, and magnesium. It's also an excellent source of monounsaturated fats, the heart-healthy type that helps lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease. These fats are also a primal part of the Mediterranean diet, which is one of the healthiest diets in the world.

Spread some on whole wheat toast for your breakfast. Almond butter is more expensive than peanut butter, but you will be doing yourself and your heart a favor by keeping your cholesterol low and heart disease at bay.

For Thursday...

Sculpt your entire body without leaving your home. Yes, for those of us who devote time and practice each week to workout tapes, we already know this. But, did you know that you can get the same advantage from doing chores in and around your house? Try raking up leaves into a heaping pile and you'll discover how sore your arms will really be. Doing odd tasks in and around the house can be a great cardio and strength workout for you. Make sure your workout is sufficient by adding some lower impact workout (like squats and lunges. 8 reps on each leg, 3x) in between raking.

For Friday...

Love is the moment and that's what OperationBeautiful.com is about. This website is devoted to sending positive messages via Post-Its. This website is created by a girl who started sending positive messages via Post-Its. For example, "You're beautiful - inside and out!" would be fitting for a vanity mirror. But, anyone can do it, regardless of where they are at.

Be the secret messenger in your neighborhood and give it a chance. You can even take a picture and send it in to OperationBeautiful.com too!
