Or, we as often say, setting boundaries. Be sure to make time for yourself, even if you have to tell others no. Find your boundary, determine that others may not overstep it, and stand firm. Your new fence will make life better for YOU!

Well, of course they do, but for your fall health regimen, pretend they don't. Unless you're lugging something particularly heavy or climbing over 8 floors, walk! Your good health will thank you!
Many communities are doing Fall Fairs instead of trick-or-treating, but if you want your kids to join in this long-term family favorite, here are some tips: 1. Walk door-to-door with them. It's good exercise for you. 2. Use small bags. When they are full, it's time to head to the ice cream shop to count candy (and ice cream makes it okay to quit collecting candy). 3. Invoke a two-candy rule. They can enjoy only two and the rest goes back for another day. 4. Swap out unhealthy candy for better versions: fruit leather for Laffy Taffy; dark chocolate for milk; mini coconut cookies for milk chocolate-covered almond bars. Donate the unhealthy candy (or keep it for yourself to enjoy in small doses!).
Halloween is over and Thanksgiving is only weeks away. To remain stress-free, cleanse your mind from negativity and harsh thoughts. Listen to what your body tells you. If this seems "holistic" to you, remember that you must come first. You must help yourself before you can help those around you during this busy holiday season. Eyes closed, put the day aside, and come out on the other side refreshed and recharged!
Invariably, there's that one bag of chips we can't find a clip for. Try this: Fold the top over twice away from you, then fold the sides in toward you, and finally, flip the top fold to secure the entire bag. Practice it a few times until you have it. It really works!
