‘Flower Power’:This was a slogan used during the ’60s
and early ’70sas symbol of passive resistance
and non-violence ideology,rooted in opposition to the Vietnam War.The use of flowers and other props were
meant to turn anti-war rallies intoa form of street theater,
thereby reducing thefear, anger and threat
inherent within protests.(Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Tart Is SmartNational Cherry Month in
Februarygives you a good reason to choose
cherries— specifically tart cherries.
This sweetly sour snackcontains anthocyanins,
compounds that contributeto the fruit’s flavor,
bright red color,and numerous health benefits.
Research shows that tart cherriesmay lower the risk of heart
disease;fight inflammation
in arthritis + gout patients;provide relief to sore muscles;
and promote better sleep._______

Switch Hands for aBrain Boost!
Exercising your brain can be as easy asswitching hands.
Doctors advise engaging in a familiaractivity
using your non-dominant hand.Try brushing your teeth,
eating, combing your hair, orwriting or drawing
with your “wrong” hand.Forcing your brain
to help with your “wrong” handrequires your brain
to create new neural pathways andcan stimulate the brain’s
cognitive and creative functions.
