Today is #NationalChocolatemintday




Main Story-

Take the First Step!



Back in December, I set a very important goal for me... To write every day....


I set this goal because I knew I had to make a big change. I used to tell myself how much work- writing was.... That writing was boring... and that writing took too long and I had other things to do...


........What lies....


What really happened was that I was listening to my fear and ego talk nonsense and I let them convince me that writing really was not worth my time.


In previous years I would start a blog and a few weeks into it, I'd got bored and discouraged and then I just let it go.... Self sabotage would kick in and I'd beat up on myself for not being able to keep my goal. I knew I was not alone, but I felt alone. ''


After many years of doing and not seeing the results I wanted, This year, I decided to Take the First Step into Trusting my DREAMS! Why did I want to write? Why was it important to me? I learned to look at it like my daily Journal book. I also really loved the fact that I was setting a big example for my kids.


I made a healthy plan to write 5 minutes of my life thoughts, plans and ideas. I made it feel easy and fun by convincing myself I was just writing a simple journal entry, I made pretty graphics and recipes and made it interesting. I created this blog, The Good Morning Life.


Today I'm celebrating 50 days of writing! And that feels amazing! I picture in my head "Day 252" and that really excites me...and keeps me motivated to keep writing.


Where is this going? to open doors of opportunities! I just wanted this year 2021 to be extra special. I want to feel like I'm achieving my dreams of writing for one complete year and I know I will achieve it.


So, you see...You have to take the First Step towards facing your Fears, bypassing the lies you tell yourself and become deaf to the naysayers... Just focus on the project you want to get done, DECIDE TO DO IT and TAKE THAT FIRST STEP!


It will be challenging. It will test you. Some days will be easier, but stick it through! You can do this!!! I believe in You!


-You have my full support! Take that first step and please your inner self.


Always wishing you all the Best!!!


Much Love,

- Belynda Farias

Today is #NationalDrinkWineday




Main Story-

A little Wine is Good.....



A little Wine is good... yes, that's right.

I love a good glass of wine once in a while.


Today we're celebrating #Nationaldrinkwineday!


Let's talk about the benefits of having a beautiful glass of Wine....



https://www.lifehack.org/articles/lifestyle/14-surprising-health-benefits-wine.html



According to Lifehack.org, here are 14 surprise benefits you'll experience from drinking wine.


  1. Live Longer- Daily wine consumption is part of a dietary pattern that encourages long life through eating fewer animal-based foods and eating more plant-based foods.


2. Get Smarter - Resveratrol may help improve short-term memory.


3. Banish Breakouts with Wine - Resveratrol is able to inhibit the growth of acne-causing bacteria longer than benzoyl peroxide.


4. Wine may beat trips to the Gym - Scientists at the University of Alberta in Canada found that resveratrol improves heart, brain, and bone function; the same way these parts are improved when you go to the gym.


5. Say Goodbye to the Blues - Researchers in Spain found that men and women who drank two to seven glasses of wine per week were less likely to be diagnosed with depression.


6. Reduce your risk of Liver Disease - Modest wine consumption, defined as one glass a day, may decrease the prevalence of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)


7. Promote Healthy eyes - Resveratrol stops out-of-control blood vessel growth in the eyes,


8. Promote your Pearly Whites - Drinking wine is a little-known way to protect your teeth from bacteria?


9. Cut Cancer Risks - Red grapes are the fruit best able to suppress the activity of aromatase, the enzyme used by breast tumors to produce their own estrogen – this is called an aromatase inhibitor.


10. Stave off those pesky sniffles - A study looked at 4,000 faculty members at five universities across Spain. Those who drank wine were less likely to come down with a cold compared to those that drank beer or spirits.


11. Lower your Cholesterol - Resveratrol is thought to reduce LDL and increase HDL, meaning that our blood vessels are less likely to be coated with plaque.


12. Reduce the risk of Stroke - Wine may reduce your risk of ischemic stroke. In analyses adjusted for age, sex, and smoking, intake of wine on a monthly, weekly, or daily basis was associated with a lower risk of stroke compared with no wine intake.


13. Regulate sugar levels without drugs - The polyphenols in wine interact with cells involved in the development and storage of fat and the regulation of blood sugar


14. Slash your Diabetic risk - Men and women who drink moderately have a 30% lower risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.
