Brain Teaser Answer:
Yesterday, today and tomorrow!
Secretly Do Yoga At Work
A crazy day at the office may make you
wish you were at your favorite yoga
studio. Take some time to try this
“Do
Nothing Posture”…
1.
Find a straight-backed chair in the
quietest place you have available.
2.
Sit with feet and knees together and
the soles of your feet flat.
3.
Straighten your back against the back
of the chair, with your head in line
with your spine.
4. Rest the palms of your hands gently
on your thighs just above your knees.
5.
Sit tall, but relaxed, not rigid.
6. Close your eyes or focus on a spot in
front of you with your head erect.
7. Breathe through your nose with deep,
slow, even breaths.
8.
Stay in this position as long as you
can. 20 minutes is ideal; 5 minutes is
realistic. Just one minute can still
help calm the madness.

Real Estate Corner…
Q. How do I make my home stand out in the market without spending
much money?
A.
If you want to get offers from buyers, make a great first impression by
improving these potential turn-offs:
Messy Landscaping:
Buyers are looking for curb appeal. Take the time
to clean up an overgrown yard.
Nasty Odors:
You may not smell some odors in your home because
you’ve become desensitized to them. Ask your REALTOR
®
if there are
odors (smoke, pet odors) and how you can get rid of them.
Too Much Clutter:
Pack away any items like excess furniture, personal
pictures and nick-knacks. They make your rooms look smaller and
distract the buyer from really seeing the house itself.
Old Paint:
A fresh coat of neutral-colored paint is a low-cost way to
make your rooms look new and fresh.
