Promises. Ohhhh, promises. Living up to your promises could be the lesson of this week’s Get Exercised With Dina Prioste. A few episodes back Dina promised herself and her viewers that she would attempt a very difficult yoga pose known as the Firefly. Never heard of the Firefly Pose? It’s a toughie. Your toes are in front of your face and you’re standing on your hands. Imagine that one. This pose improves concentration, balance, coordination, and strengthens arm and chest muscles. Proper goals for a fit enthusiast.
Check it out and be sure to see the rest of Dina’s video over at Get Exercised.
From her age, to her kick ass tennis skills, to her style, Melanie Oudin is impressing the world. The seventeen-year old tennis pro knocked out Nadia Petrova during one of the most exciting matches of the 2009 US Open. Melanie Oudin is the youngest player since Serena Williams to reach the quarterfinals (strangely enough she is a twin too!!)! But surprisingly her amazing tennis skills aren’t Oudin’s only attributes buzzing in the media.
If you have looked on google at all you’ll know that two pieces of Oudin’s life are causing quite a fuss: her boyfriend and her shoes! Reportedly, Melanie Oudin is dating a younger man, 15-year old Austin Smith, met Oudin while they were both training at Racquet Club of the South in Atlanta. Austin Smith recently explained the story behind Melanie Oudin’s inspirational and brightly colored shoes. Oudin’s Shoes which say believe on the heel “didn’t want to put her name” so decided to have “Believe” instead, because the belief in herself is what has taken her this far. It’s a pretty incredible story!! Check out this article from the Associated Press. It paints a vivid picture of Melanie and her life.
Keep up the good work Melanie!

Do you ever wake up after a full night’s sleep and still feel completely drained? Elizabeth Chamberlain of Space Lift shows us how to change the home to change your life, with inside feng shui secrets to rearrange your room and Boost Your Energy… Elizabeth discusses EMFs, otherwise know as electromagnetic fields, which sound like something out of a complicated science-fiction film, but actually have a very real and potentially harmful effect on our sleep, health and overall energy level. Some scientist say EMFs can even be responsible for life threatening issues such as brain tumors, birth defects, miscarriages, chronic fatigue, headaches, heart problems, and stress. But in the least, EMFs cause unrest, and we all need our beauty sleep!
Although they are invisible to the human eye, it is important to understand where EMFs come from. Simple household items like your phone, your TV, even your alarm clock emanate EMFs, interrupting important sleep patters and relaxation time, especially in the bedroom. Because we spend an average of eight hours in our sleeping area, any feng shui expert will stress time and time again that the bedroom is a place for rest, relaxation and intimacy. The bedroom should be reserved to recharge, so an overabundance of gadgets and EMFs will ultimately result in a potentially unhappy, unhealthy person!
Watch what the Space Lift team does to fix this tragically EMF infested room…
