10 WAYS TO BE HEALTHIER & HAPPIER THIS YEAR https://www.theelementsofliving.com/10-ways-to-be-healthier-happier-this-year/

What are the secrets of a happy life? People have tried to answer that question for thousands of years. They’ve looked to

philosophy and countless self-help books. The media associates happiness with wealth, beauty and fame. Advertisers, on

the other hand, say happiness is the result of buying the right products. But none of this is the measure of a happy life.

Happiness is the result of our activities and choices. Deciding to live a healthier lifestyle is a great start to a happier life.

However, with all the temptations to stray from healthy living, it can be a hard to stay on track. Here is a guide to help

you live life to the fullest this year.

Sully II Times Page 4

2. Prioritize Your Pillow

There’s a connection between getting zzz’s and feeling

pleased. Sleep affects our brain function, and a healthy,

well-rested brain makes us feel better. Sleep deprivation

has been linked to weight gain, an increased risk for

stroke and diabetes and an increased risk for depression.

According to the Huffington Post, 65 percent of adults

who sleep over seven hours report excellent mental

health.

3. Stay Motivated

One of the best ways to stay motivated is to set short- and long-

term goals. Why? Feeling good about the future is important

for our happiness. Meaningful and realistic goals give our lives

a sense of direction and purpose. Goals should be challenging,

but achievable; if we set the bar too high, we set ourselves up

for failure. There’s a complex relationship between motivation

and happiness. For example, does happiness drive motivation

or does motivation drive happiness? Perhaps the best way to

stay motivated and happy is not to over-think it.

1. Get Outside

Nature makes us happy. According to a study conducted

by the University of Derby and The Wildlife Trusts,

there’s a significant increase in our health, happiness

and well-being when we spend time outdoors. Green

spaces improve our mental health, and sunlight helps us

produce vitamin D, a nutrient long associated with

fighting off depression. In other words, simple activities

such as planting flowers, feeding the birds or going for a

walk can lift our spirits. Being outdoors allows us to

become part of something bigger. Samuel Johnson, the

18th century poet and writer, said it best: “Deviation

from nature is deviation from happiness.”

4. Connect with People (in the Real

World)

“Man is by nature a social animal,” said Aristotle the

Greek philosopher. Social relationships are essential to

our happiness and well-being. Family and friends give

meaning to our lives, provide comfort and support and

allay our worries and fears. However, often times our

online friends outnumber our real-world friends.

Personal connections are lost to Facebook likes and

Twitter updates. Social media isn’t as social as it

appears. According to a University of Michigan study,

increasing use of Facebook led to a decline in happiness

and overall life satisfaction. It’s time to put away the

computer and connect with people in the real world.

6. Get Rid of Stuff

Self-help guru James Altucher has written sixteen books,

the most popular of which is “Choose Yourself.” In the

book, the former tech entrepreneur and venture capitalist

discusses the importance of simplifying and downsizing.

Altucher found happiness in whittling down his worldly

possessions. It’s an approach to life that others have cel-

ebrated as well. Maria Kondo, a Japanese organizing

consultant, set off a global de-cluttering craze with her

book, “The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The

Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing.” When it

comes to happiness, sometimes less is more.

5. Take Care of Your Body

Turn off the TV and go for a walk. Take the stairs in-

stead of the elevator. Walk to the store instead of driving

the car. There are lots of ways to stay active and take

care of the body. You don’t need to run a marathon or

go to the gym six days a week. Studies indicate that

just 30 minutes of moderate exercise a day can reduce

chronic illnesses such as high blood pressure and diabe-

tes, and improve mood.

7. Travel

Travel is a great way to strengthen character and broad-

en the mind, both of which can lead to a greater sense of

happiness and well-being. Look no further than Julia

Roberts in the film, “Eat, Pray, Love.” Travel allows us

to get out of our comfort zones, meet new people, see

new things and have our character tested in ways like

never before. It’s an enriching educational experience.

When we escape the daily grind, we also have the

chance to look back at what we have at home and have a

greater appreciation for it.

8. Be Grateful

There’s truth to the old saying that “being grateful today

leads to happiness tomorrow.” According to UMass

Dartmouth researchers Martin Seligman, Robert

Emmons and Michael McCullough, people who keep

gratitude journals on a weekly basis have been found to

exercise more regularly, have fewer physical symptoms,

feel better about their lives as a whole and feel more

optimistic about their upcoming week as compared to

those who keep journals recording the stressors or

neutral events of their lives.

9. Be Comfortable with Who You Are

Learn to accept yourself. When you dwell on your flaws and shortcomings, it’s hard to be happy. Remember…nobody’s perfect. Don’t beat yourself up if you cheated on your diet, skipped a workout or two or gave into some type of temptation. We tend to compare ourselves to other people, but more times than not these comparisons are based on unrealistic views of those people. Too much self-criticism causes stress, anxiety and unhappiness.

10. Have Hobbies

Hobbies are fun, challenging and stimulating. Trying new things and learning new skills gives you a feeling of self-confidence and accomplishment. Learn to play an instrument. Take up a foreign language. Try a new sport. Master the art of French cooking. Choose something that interests you, and learn how to do it. Have a “growth” mindset and thrive on challenges. Joy, satisfaction and positive emotions will follow.

It’s officially “Yard Waste” season!

As winter ends, and the thaw begins you will find yourself with what we call “Yard Waste” in the form of or-ganic matter cluttering your yard; do you know the best way to dispose of your Yard Debris to keep your lawn and the environment green?

Whether its lawn clippings or a barrage of unsightly leaves seemingly dumped onto your lawn; some of us wonder the best way to collect and prepare them for fast, easy and green pickup.

Many people do not realize that yard debris collection is actually considered to be a form of recycling. This can be somewhat confusing as yard debris is not picked up with your Single Stream recyclables.

Instead, brush, branches, grass clippings and tree limbs are broken down organically by a bio-chemical reaction known as composting. Once collected and taken to a special facility, over time, these materials become a new product called compost.

Although we may not think of it in the literal term, composting is still, very much, a form of recycling. In fact, it is possibly the most organic form of recycling, since all material is returned directly to the earth through vari-ous applications to aid in new growth.

But how can you assure that the unsightly organic clutter on your lawn is properly disposed of to ensure it helps the growth of new leaves and blos-soms in the spring?!

The first step is to ensure the correct preparation of your Yard Waste for pick-up.

Defining 'Debris'

First, let's define the FULL list of all accepted yard debris items accepted at your curb.

Leaves

Grass clippings

Tree limbs and brush (bundled and tied)

Christmas Trees

Pumpkins

Proper Preparation for Pick-Up

Loose in a Container

The most preferred method of collecting your yard clippings, leaves, and small branches is loose in a container(s) that can be lifted and dumped into our truck. Yard debris that is collected in plastic bags must be broken open before the com-posting process can begin, and for that reason, we recommend that you simply collect it in a "yard debris" labeled reusable container. (Did we mention that you'll be saving on all of those yard debris collection bags by investing in a few

Avoid Late Payments!!!

debit your account the same day every month and

adjust the fee each year automatically. By using the

ACH program you will never have to worry about

paying on time and will not be late in payments. Best of

all – its free of charge, no coupons and no postage to

deal with!

If you would like more information on ACH payment

program please go to Sully2.com website, or contact

sturdy compost collection containers?)

Compostable Plastic Bags

In certain locations, another accepted method of collection is the use of plastic bags that are certified com-postable. These can be purchased at most home improvement stores.

Brown Paper Collection Bags

Similar to a compostable plastic bag, a brown paper collection bag, which can also be bought at a local home improvement store, will break down organically with the collected yard debris.

Bundling Methods

In order for us to collect all of the homes on any given route, tree limbs and brush must be no longer than 4 feet in length and 3 inches thick in diameter. These items must be tied with rope or twine so that one man may easily pick-up. American Disposal

Services will collect a maximum of 10 bags of grass clippings and or leaves, and 10 bundles of brush per pick-up. (There will be an extra charge for additional removal of larger amounts of yard debris that must be sched-uled in advance through our customer service center.)

Try Grasscycling!

Grasscycling is the "green" way to keep your lawn beautiful and healthy, and entails leaving the grassclippings ON your lawn after you mow, instead of bagging them.

When clippings stay on the lawn they release important nutrients into the soil, act as mulch and pro-mote natural aeration by earthworms. Clippings decompose and feed the soil the nutrients it needs.

Grasscycling and leaving the clippings on the ground also slows waterloss and reduces the needs for fertiliza-tion.

Just remember to cut the grass only when it’s dry and to always check to make sure your mower blades are sharp before you start you implement this technique.

Things to Re-

member

Items that are either bagged OR bundled should not ex-ceed 50 lbs.

Bundles should not exceed arm length. If you cannot wrap your arms around the bundle limbs, break it down into multiple bundles.

March is

Woman History Month

“March 8, 1911 was the first International Women's Day, and it was 1980 when President Carter established National

Women's History Week. In 1987, Congress acted to make that week a full month.

Women, of course, are also a part of history for the other 11 months of the year. And I would add that women were

influencing the course of history long before 1980, or 1911. But I am glad that there is, each year, a time when we pause

to think about the role of women, because history is more than simply what happened, and more than what women and

men did to make it happen.

History is what we remember about those deeds. It is the lessons we have taken from the past and the knowledge we

draw on to live today and to shape the future.”

Great Woman thru time:

Karen Carpenter. The three-time Grammy-award winning singer and drummer brought attention to eating disorders,

which affect 20 million women in the U.S.

Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan, her teacher and life-long friend. Sullivan helped Keller become the first blind-deaf

person to graduate from college, and the pair advocated for people with disabilities.

Jackie Joyner-Kersee. The six-time Olympic medalist is considered one of the world’s greatest female athletes and

holds the world record in the heptathlon.

Jeannette Rankin, R-Mont., takes her seat as the first female member of Congress. Rankin was a life-long pacifist

and opposed both World Wars while in office.

Geraldyn (Jerrie) Cobb. She became the first woman to pass qualifying exams for astronaut training in 1959 but

wasn’t allowed to train because of her gender.

Graciela Olivarez. The first woman and Latina graduate from Notre Dame Law School, she

fought for Mexican-American rights and worked to decrease poverty.

Janet Reno is confirmed as the first woman to be U.S. Attorney General.

Tammy Duckworth is born. She became the first disabled woman to

serve in the U.S. House of Representatives and the second Asian-

American woman in the Senate.

Simone Biles. She becomes the most decorated American gymnast,

winning four gold medals at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics.

Bonnie Blair. She is a five-time Olympic speed skating gold medalist

and the most decorated female Winter Olympian in U.S. history.

March's birthstones are aquamarine and bloodstone.

These stones symbolize courage.

Its birth flower is the daffodil.

The zodiac signs for the month of March

are Pisces (until March 20) and Aries (March 21

onwards).
