My husband, Joe, has been outside dethatching our lawn for the past week. Every day that it's not raining, he can be found tackling a small section. He always knows exactly where he left off because he's working in 'sections.' So, he takes care of a section and then he places two garden stakes in the ground apart from each other, and a long piece of twine wrapped around each of the stakes to 'section off' the part that's complete.

He finished yesterday and we had a professional core aeration done afterwards... which can be very beneficial if your lawn is having issues (like ours is after this past winter) and you plan to re-seed.

Three organizing points here:

1) Work in sections to complete a large job. My husband is a big believer in mini-goals to accomplish a big job. First, he's not spending every waking minute working on this one project and, second, he's getting some exercise without physically overdoing it for hours.

2) Find a way to 'mark' where you are. Whether you're working on a lawn dethatching job, or something else, 'mark' where you are in that project so you can easily stop and pick back up on it easily. For instance, a paper filing project can be 'marked' with a file folder filed on its side so it sticks up a bit in the filing cabinet (you'll have to leave the drawer open, of course). When reading a book, use a physical bookmark for a real book or a digital bookmark for your e-Reader. When organizing the basement, jot down where you are in the project...use a notebook and a pen to take notes. When you're ready to start again, you won't have to waste time thinking about where you left off.

3) Know what has to be done during and after. My husband has a whole plan in place for our lawn to ensure that it will look better, and not worse, in the weeks ahead. Always think about your next steps, no matter what you're working on. For instance, if you're organizing your kitchen, how will you 'follow up' so it doesn't return to chaos? If you're writing a report for work, what are your next steps? Getting someone to edit it? Forwarding it to the appropriate people? When you're working on something, always keep in mind 'next steps' and plan for them ahead of time whenever you can.

Tell me if this at all sounds familiar...

Karen is in her 50s and works a desk job. Her weight's okay, she's reasonably active, but she is 'feeling her age.' Her neck and shoulders are often tight, her joints ache, and overall stiffness sometimes causes her to wince just getting out of her chair. The days that are really frustrating are when she cannot even reach her shoes to tie her laces.

You see, no matter what Karen tries, she's stiff and can't stretch. A muscle or age problem? Not necessarily. Very often, it's because the brain has forgotten how to 'feel' parts of the body...back, hips, shoulders, etc. The brain just becomes no longer aware of those parts. It cannot successfully direct the muscles to move in certain ways.

Science now shows that by re-activating the brain, we can continue to positively evolve and transform physically, mentally, and emotionally to experience an increase in overall performance, flexibility, energy, and enthusiasm.

That's where the Neuromovement Healing Fest comes in. Discover the simple movements that will immediately improve your brain functioning so you can move freely once again without pain...just like in your younger days. You will see super-fast results. Best yet, this event is free of charge. Visit:
