Fighting with your Spouse
Fighting and arguing between spouses is common with any couple who are in a close relationship. At the same time, the hurtful things said to each other during arguments can destroy relationships. It is so easy to get into an argument and at the end, it all seems so silly. Sometimes, couples end up fighting over things that don’t even matter and lose out on good times altogether.
Nevertheless, it is important that both sides make some ground rules to end or resolve those heated arguments when they arise. Here are some of things I believe all couples should keep in mind when in an argument.
First, be honest about the situation and take the time to listen to the other person rather than doing all the talking yourself. In other words, listening can be the key factor in resolving the issue.
Secondly, put yourself in the other person’s shoes instead of staying focused on your point of view. Refrain from making the situation more intense, take time out and be alone for some time.
Thirdly, when you are at fault, admit your mistake rather than pointing fingers at each other. For example, when Adam ate the apple he blamed Eve for giving it to him and Eve blamed the snake. In this case, no one wants to take responsibility for their actions. You must learn to take responsibility for your actions rather than blaming someone else for the choices you make. Simultaneously, admitting your mistake in an argument puts you ahead of the problem, helping you to mitigate it.
Finally, assume your spouse wants to be happy when the argument dies down. Try to get close to each other by hugging or by saying nice things to each other. Sometimes words can work as a healing balm. Even if it is as simple as “I Love you.”

There are various reasons why we are facing this issue and have become more adaptive to this lifestyle of eating foods that contains chemicals. First and foremost, time has changed where our lives have become so busy that we don’t go grocery shopping every day. Versus earlier period women who went to the market for their daily food needs.
Walking Anyone?
Going walking is one of the activities I love to do. Most of the time, I go walking in the neighborhood. For some reason, it does not feel like something I have to force myself to do, maybe because I enjoy it so much. It is a lot easier when it doesn’t take so much convincing like when I have to go for a workout in the gym.
What’s more, I had no idea that taking a thirty-minute walk everyday had so many benefits. It not only builds your cardiovascular system, it burns calories. I was reading an article by Dr. Don Colbert, a renowned health and nutritional expert, and he recommended a thirty-minute walk everyday to one of his patients, and she lost fifty pounds in one year. Though, he also said that not everyone’s body responds in the same way. Read more »
