| It's in the way you walk | |
Since moving back to New York City in 2006,
I often explore my neighborhood, or one of the parks nearby. Not until a few months ago though did I know how to make the most out of it.
This fall I learned about a Pilgrim Walk. Not sure where the name comes from - maybe the early settlers in America striking it out on their own in uncharted territory.
No matter. It's simple and really worked for me.

| Listen up hubby, it's Date Night! | |
I had to share this article, so appropriately timed to Valentine's Day last week. It's called "Reinventing Date Night for Long-Married Couples."
Since it's the NY Times Health section, there is science involved - they split couples into several groups to compare ones with normal date routines of dinner-and-a-movie to ones who did something new each time, i.e. dancing and hiking. The results: the ones who did something different were happier and released positive endorphins, like the kind you release when you first start dating someone.
My inital reaction: who agreed to this experiment?
