Great Deals Ahead....Savings from my Inbox to You!






We all LOVE a great deal!  

I hate searching through my numerous e-mails a day trying to find that one...you know...that one that I was looking for to save me a few extra bucks while I am either running out the door to the store or ready to checkout online.  

I think that by taking all the savings, all the coupons, all the discounts and putting them in ONE SIMPLE place just makes sense!  


It will help me, I hope it might help someone else too!

Five Minute Mood Booster



5-Minute Mood Booster

RELAX,  REFLECT,  REFRESH

 


Did you know that all it takes to lower stress, anger, and anxiety is a five-minute walk or jog outdoors?  

According to a study from the University of Essex, the more natural the environment (think nature trails) the better you will feel!

The mood-altering benefits are believed to be triggered by the trees, fields or streams and a natural reaction with the bodies hard-wiring

Ditch that Ipod and just take in the natural sights and sounds



Cool App to check out:   

 
AllTrails (on Android and IOS for FREE) to help with finding a new local spot!  This app helps you find nearby preserves and parks by features (like how kid-friendly they are) and activities (like running).
