While some forms of green tea are definitely an acquired taste, there are many that are as good for the taste buds as they are for your body. If you’re looking for an easy way to dramatically increase your health, here are six wonderful reasons to brew a cup of green tea today!
1. It Tastes Great!
Yes, you heard me right. Commercialism has been a big boon to green tea in that there are now literally hundreds of flavors and mixtures available on the market; if you try one and dislike the taste, there are always many more to choose from. My personal favorite at the moment is the flavor Honey Lemon Ginseng from a company called Celestial Seasonings, available in all major grocery stores in North America.

The other day I’m on my lunch break at the local bistro. Sitting a few tables over are three guys making a racket and talking loud enough to be heard by every patron. One particularly loud gent, and I use that word loosely, was explaining his latest line he used to hit on women in his new spinning class at the gym. “Oh, I invited her over to adjust my knob” he said, with a boisterous laugh and was “obviously” referring to the tension lever on the spinner. His fellow diners quickly joined him with their own roar of laughter, this while raw meat dangled from their mouths. I’m sure there was powdered testosterone sprinkled on that meat instead of salt. “Where else can you hit on women except the gym,” he asked his buddies with more laughter bellowing from within. I felt a quick burst of rage and then settled down. I waited until they stuffed more food in their mouths and then walked over to their table. In a rather loud, and somewhat mocking voice I asked, “Do you think it’s possible, just possible that women are at the gym to workout? Think about it guys.” They looked up at me somewhat surprised and started to wipe their mouths with the back of their hands and I quickly turned and strolled out the door… before they could make any snide remarks. Hey, they have to swallow that mouthful of food before they can talk, don’t they?
Wow, that was a nice rant and I feel better now. But seriously, I got tired of going to the gym and having guys constantly hit on me. Not that I don’t appreciate guys, it’s just that I’m there for a workout. So, a few years back I came up with my own bullet proof list to avoid being a target, not only inside the gym but also when I left the gym. And for those girls who are looking for guys, the gym might me a good place to start. Just use your own common sense when handing out your phone number. With that in mind, here is my list.
1. Workout With a Female Trainer
True, this might be a little expensive, but it’s probably the best way to avoid being a target and the best way to get the most out of your workout. The trainer will keep you motivated, keep you moving, show you how to do the exercises properly and be very attentive to your personal needs. Most trainers offer free nutritional tips and will not allow interruptions during the workout.
2. What’s in a Cubic?
Cubic Zirconia that is, a little imitation diamond on the left hand goes a long way. Spend $40 and the next time a guy approaches you in the gym, just lift up your left hand, show him the finger (the third finger gals) and show off that Cubic. Shake your head, give him a wry smile and then go about your business. For a good selection of CZ’s in the $40 to $50 dollar range click here
3. Consider a Daily or Monthly Pass at the Local Recreation Center
This is excellent and I do it all the time. For a low price I get to use the entire facility for a month. Today’s recreational centers are not your daddy’s YMCA. The centers are equipped with the latest and greatest. If you have kids, they are usually permitted to go in and swim, play basketball, and do a host of other fitness programs. This type of center is generally family oriented and there are fewer guys on the prowl. You can get in a good workout without any interruptions. Just turn on your IPOD stick in the buds and you’re set.
4. Join Curves
There is a reason why this is the fastest growing fitness gym in the country. It’s for women only. They offer excellent support with a well trained staff. This gym is not for the advanced athlete, but it is particularly good for women who need to lose weight at a steady pace and keep fit. To find a location near you click here
5. Keep it Safe Gals
Gyms can be dangerous. You’re around moving equipment, protruding objects, free weights, and other people. Always be aware of your space. Be courteous to others. When you’re through with your workout and if it’s dark outside, walk out when others are leaving. Try and park your car close to an entrance or exit. At the very least park under a light or in a well lit area. Always have your car keys in your hand when leaving the gym. Don’t take valuables to the gym and don’t store them in a locker. And finally, carry a canister of mace and don’t be afraid to use it.I hope these suggestions will keep you safe and help you get the most out of your fitness program. Most of all, I hope you get out and join a gym if you haven’t already. It’s one of the best things you can do for yourself. Always wishing you good health and success.

Being spontaneous can give you some relaxed and uninhabited qualities, because no matter what happens next, you can deal with it. This is an incredible trait to have in life. Here are some tips to adding spontaneity to your work day.
1. Keep your mind sharp as a tack. Yep, if you sprinkle in a few daily doses of impulsive activities, your mind is sure to be on top of its game. Having unknowns in your schedule and being OK with that can force you to really focus on what’s at hand.
