Extend Your Growing Season by Starting Your Seeds Indoors

I am officially a new guest columnist for my local paper, the KP News, in Lakebay, WA.  Read my first article here and learn how to start your seeds indoors in order to extend your growing season! (I'm on page 6)

Feel Sexy. Power Pose in the Nude.

Wonder Woman Knows How to Pose

I recently watched a TED talk on body language, specifically power posing, and the effect it can have on the body.  Amy Cuddy gave the talk and you can watch it here. 

Her final point turned out to be that just like our mood and mindset can determine our body language, the opposite is also true.  Our conscious body language will have a profound effect on our state of mind and self-image.  Smiling when we are sad will put us in a better mood.  Standing tall and proud when we feel insecure will give our self-esteem a boost.

I would like to take it one step further and recommend power posing in the nude.  Yes, you read that right: practice standing tall and proud in your birthday suit.
