July 27, 2015 /MM-prReach/ —

Scottsdale, AZ – July 22 2015 – Shawn Achor, best-selling author of “The Happiness Advantage”, appeared as a guest on Rich Dad Radio with host Robert Kiyosaki to discuss how happiness fuels success.

Many people believe that if they were wealthy, they’d be happier. Achor explains during this show that success doesn’t bring happiness; happiness brings success. Achor says, “The greatest competitive advantage in the modern economy is actually a positive and engaged brain. When the brain is positive, our research shows a 37% rise in sales, productive energy rose 31% and a likelihood of a promotion rose by 40%.”

Kiyosaki asked Achor to explain why people aren’t happy, he replied, “Because people are willing to sacrifice happiness in the present [and they think] if they can achieve some goal then they’ll be happier.”

Achor says people can choose happiness by changing habits for just 21 days. Three things everyone can do are:

For 21 days in a row, think of three new things that you’re grateful for, and be specific about it
Switch from multi-tasking to single-tasking for just two minutes a day by taking your hands off your keyboard and watching your breath go in and out
For 21 days in a row, write a positive email or text message to someone thanking them or praising them for something

Achor’s TED Talk is one of the most popular of all time with over 9 million views, and his lecture airing on PBS has been seen by millions. His Happiness Advantage training is the largest and most successful positive psychology corporate training program to date in the world.

Home Nursing Agency Serving San Diego, Firstat Nursing Services Publishes “Three Ways Skilled Nursing Can Help Senior Citizens Stay Connected with Friends and Family.”

July 27, 2015 /MM-prReach/ —

El Cajon, CA 91911 – Firstat Nursing Services, an El Cajon home health and in home skilled nursing agency publishes “Three Ways Skilled Nursing Can Help Senior Citizens Stay Connected with Friends and Family.”

“Isolation is one of the most common causes of severe depression in senior citizens. Many older individuals become cut off by illness, decreases in physical function and even distance,” said Linnea Goodrich, president of Firstat Nursing Services in San Diego, CA.

“While staying in their own home is one of the best ways to ensure good mental health in aging individuals, it is also a major influence in the separation that can occur. A skilled nurse who visits their elderly clients regularly can keep seniors connected and increase their social involvement to resolve loneliness,” continued Goodrich.

Here are 3 ways skilled nursing can help senior citizens stay connected to family and friends.

Home Nurses Can Arrange Regular Outings – Part of the regular services that a home health care nurse can provide is getting their patients out of the house. Just getting out into the fresh air has many advantages, and helps elderly people feel more in contact with their surroundings. A skilled nurse can make sure that regular visits to the outdoor area around the home are safe and activities are at a level the senior citizen is capable of.

Taking short walks just in the general area of the home gives a senior healthy exercise that is good for their body and helps them strengthen weak muscles. Best of all, getting outside allows seniors to communicate with neighborhood friends. For seniors who are not ambulatory, a skilled nurse can still arrange for their patient to get fresh air and meet with friends by providing wheelchair transportation. Sunshine and fresh air are important to anyone’s physical health and well-being.

Seniors Can Attend Social Functions with the Help of a Skilled Nurse – As seniors get older, they often miss out on regular functions in the community that they previously enjoyed. That loss can create a deep emotional isolation. A visit from a home health care specialist automatically gives seniors some outside interaction with another person, but even better, arrangements can be made easily with the visiting nurse to help elderly clients get to the meetings and community events they love.

Family Reunions are Possible with the Help of an El Cajon In Home Skilled Nurse – Skilled nursing is often associated with providing medical checks and keeping home-bound patients healthy. That is a large part of their value, but a skilled nurse can also make many social arrangements that allow elderly individuals to stay in touch with family.

Along with simply keeping older people in contact with family via phone and other forms of modern communication that can be troublesome for seniors, a skilled nurse can also arrange transportation to family events like reunions.

A home nursing service can be arranged for a few hours a day or 24-hour care. Having a skilled nurse available helps alleviate many of the fears elderly men have about getting older such as loss of muscle and strength, falling and memory loss. A skilled nurse will also help patients remember proper medication and make sure they are following prescribed treatment and rehabilitation schedules.

Ashburn dentist Dr. Ike Lans is helping patients who are suffering with tooth loss finally find an affordable option for restoring their smile using permanent prosthetic s with a procedure that only takes a couple hours. Using mini dental implants, Dr. Lans is can permanently fix dentures to the upper and lower arches of the patient’s mouth, eliminating issues with loose or ill-fitted dentures.

Ashburn dentist Dr. Ike Lans is helping patients who are suffering with tooth loss finally find an affordable option for restoring their smile using permanent prosthetic s with a procedure that only takes a couple hours. Using mini dental implants, Dr. Lans can permanently fix dentures to the upper and lower arches of the patient’s mouth, eliminating issues with loose or ill-fitted dentures.

To place implants for fixed dentures, no surgical incisions or gum flaps are required. The small metal screws can simply be inserted through the gum tissue into the jaw bone using only local anesthesia. A series of 4-6 mini dental implants are placed on the upper and lower arches of the mouth which are used to essentially snap the dentures into place. Once the dentures are installed, there is no need for conventional adhesive strips or paste to keep them in place.

Patients who already use removable dentures on a daily basis can simply have the mini implants placed in a short office visit of 1-2 hours and eat with their permanent teeth the same day. Patients who have failing teeth or who already have series of missing teeth can have any remaining teeth extracted first before the mini dental implants are placed.

Dr. Lans is a highly experienced dentist who has been practicing for nearly 40 years. He maintains active membership in numerous professional dental organizations and is actively involved in volunteer programs that help those in need in the local area. Dr. Lans has been voted on of Northern Virginia’s Top Dentists by both patient and peer surveys.

Best of all, the process can be completed in just one office visit, usually lasting less than two hours.

Dr. Gary Joh of Comfort Dentistry in Clinton Twp., MI is helping denture patients finally get the permanent smiles they have been dreaming of since experiencing tooth loss using the latest dental implant technology, and with a quick, affordable process, too. Using mini dental implants, Dr. Joh is able to give patients fixed permanent dentures that eliminate the need for squishy adhesive pastes and cushions and loose, ill-fitted dentures. Best of all, the process can be completed in just one office visit, usually lasting less than two hours.

Mini dental implants are about half the size in diameter of standard dental implants, and instead of requiring invasive surgery and drilling, they can simply be inserted through the gum tissue into the jawbone using only local anesthetic. Because of the small size of the implants, they also don’t require any downtime. In fact, many patients only experience mild soreness and can chew with their new fixed dentures the very same day.

To fix the dentures to the gums, Dr. Joh inserts a series of 2-4 mini dental implants along the top and bottom arches of the patient’s mouth. The implants act like the root of the tooth and the top ball shape snaps easily into the retaining socket that is installed in the denture units. When seated, the dentures rest gently on the gum tissue and the majority of forces are absorbed by the implants themselves.

Dr. Joh has been in full-time private practice since 1988 and has more than 25 years of experience in the dental industry. He stays on the leading edge of dental technology and attends numerous hours of continuing dental education courses each year.

Hot Tubs, Portable Spas Dealer Northville, Michigan, Allstate Home Leisure Shares Three Easy Ways to Enjoy a Family Reunion. Offers Free Hot Tub Test Soaks to Local Northville Residents.

July 27, 2015 /MM-prReach/ —

Allstate Home Leisure, a 4-store retailer selling hot tubs, portable spas, game rooms, outdoor furniture, above ground pools, outdoor kitchens and grills in the greater Detroit area publishes “Three Easy Ways to Enjoy a Family Reunion.”

“July is a great time to have a party. The weather is warm and there are many outdoor locations available to host big gatherings. That adds to the opportunities to observe July’s Family Reunion month that encourages extended families to reconnect,” said Roy Farmer, President of Allstate Home Leisure.

“Holding a family reunion helps younger family members understand the importance of the reputation of a family name, what events helped shaped family values, and who the people in their lives are.” continued Farmer. Here are 3 ways to enjoy a family reunion and help play a part to make it a memorable event.

Make Arrangements to Include Everyone – It is easy to leave people out when planning a big family event. When beginning the plans for a family reunion, choose a family member who has the most connections to extended family.

It is easier to reach out to people living at a distance when there is already an established line of communication. Be available to assist the main reunion planner to help create invitations, decide on party decoration and menu elements and gather supplies for the event, but allow the main planner to make the choices regarding materials and food choices.

Ask family members to submit a list of members that need to be invited so no one is left out of the party. Get a list of email addresses as well as other contact information to make it easier for the party planner to contact distant relatives.

Help Make the Reunion Memorable – Make sure all guests receive a party favor that will be a lasting reminder of the day’s festivities. The souvenir can be as little as a group picture personalized with the names of all of the guests in attendance written on the back. Pick a time during the reunion to gather everyone together and get a single shot to send out to those who were at the gathering.

Bigger memorabilia ideas include creating a signature shirt for each member. Have plenty of plain t-shirts on hand, or have each family member bring one in their size. Hand out fabric markers and have everyone sign the shirts of other guests for a lasting keepsake that is both utilitarian and fun.

Create a Fun Reunion Atmosphere with a Northville Hot Tub – Host the family reunion in the backyard with a hot tub as the centerpiece. Guests will enjoy the opportunity to soak in the festive, bubbly water of a hot tub and the comfortable luxury it provides is a great place to talk, tell stories of family history and get to know each other all over again.

Make sure all guests know to bring a suit, and have several clean bathing suits in a selection of sizes available just in case anyone forgets and they can remain on hand for friends and visitors that want to enjoy the hot tub with family members at other times of the year as well.

To encourage local residents to check out the benefits of using a Jacuzzi hot tub to help improve their overall health and well-being, Allstate Home Leisure is providing free test soaks at their Ann Arbor, Novi, Sterling Heights and Livonia showrooms. They do recommend however that people wanting to schedule their free 30-minute soak call them ahead of time to reserve their spot.

Hot Tub Repair Hillsboro Dealer Publishes “Three Tips for a Great Family Reunion.” Offers Free Hot Tub Test Soaks to Local Oregon Residents.

July 27, 2015 /MM-prReach/ —

Jacuzzi Hot Tubs of Portland serving Beaverton and Hillsdale participates in Family Reunion Month.

“A family reunion can be a lot of fun, and they are great ways to rekindle estranged relationships between members of the family that have grown apart from distance or attitudes,” said Dave Doornink the company’s director of marketing.

Balancing relationships during a family reunion can be challenging, but with these 3 tips for a great family reunion, it is possible to get through the event and discover a new closeness with long-lost loved ones.

Encourage Intergenerational Interactions – Get grandparents, great uncles and aunts to communicate easier with the youngest members of the family with books and board games. The youngest members of the family may not have had any contact in person with some of the more extended members of the group. In some cases they may have talked to grandparents or other relatives on the phone, but it is more difficult for children to reconcile the voice on the phone with a real person.

Family reunions are especially important in helping young children develop a sense of history and family relationships. Have an area set up with a table that contains a large selection of family oriented games and books that are geared toward the younger members of the family for older members to read to the babies. Have a time set aside where everyone can take a few minutes to retell a favorite family story or event, thereby passing on important or enjoyable family history to younger members.

Accept Individual Differences – One of the things that tend to separate family members are old disagreements. These types of arguments have a habit of festering over time. When hosting a family reunion, accept the fact that those people are still going to have the same opinions they always had. Don’t focus on the differences. Instead, find better ways to connect and enjoy time together in a neutral manner.

If there are known feuds between family members, do as much as possible to keep those people apart, or act as a peacemaker that points discussions in a new direction if they become heated. If a meltdown does occur between family members, jump in quickly and refocus the emotions on positive activities that are fun. When needed, have a helper who will lend a hand in separating two family members who are involved in a heated discussion, and draw their attention to other people.

Use a Beaverton Hot Tub Service to Make Sure Your Backyard Spa is Ready to Go – Many people use a backyard hot tub to create a party atmosphere that everyone can congregate around. Even stand-off relatives will want to be a part of the fun when it means slipping into the luxurious waters of a hot tub.

To be sure that the hot tub is in good shape, hire a professional hot tub service company. Most hot tub dealers offer this type of service and are experts in cleaning the tub itself and balancing and sanitizing the water.

To encourage local residents to check out the benefits of using a Jacuzzi hot tub to help improve their overall health and well-being, Jacuzzi Hot Tub Portland is providing free test soaks at their Outlet Store and Beaverton showrooms. They do recommend however that people wanting to schedule their free 30-minute soak call them ahead of time at 503-277-2170 to reserve their spot.

In the summer of 2015, Dr. Owen decided to open a new office in Windsor, at 1180 Main Street Unit 6, to provide the same great care and service to more families in Northern Colorado communities.

July 27, 2015 /MM-prReach/ —

Dr. Brandon Owen opened his first office in Fort Collins in 2006, and in 2010 moved into a new location in Northern Colorado’s first Platinum LEED building, at 3221 Eastbrook Dr Bldg A. By operating in a LEED-rated building and using digital imaging and charting, they are able to give wonderful care to their patients while having a minimal negative impact on the environment.

In the summer of 2015, Dr. Owen decided to open a new office in Windsor, at 1180 Main Street Unit 6, to provide the same great care and service to more families in Northern Colorado communities. Dr. Owen invited another highly acclaimed orthodontist to join his practice, Adam Timock.

Dr. Adam Timock was born and raised in the suburbs of Kansas City where he met his wife and high school sweetheart (in sixth grade). After finishing his undergraduate degree as valedictorian at Lake Forest College in Chicago, he returned to complete his dental degree at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, graduating at the top of his class and becoming their first student to achieve a perfect board score. At Oregon Health & Science University in Portland, Oregon, Dr. Timock was awarded his Specialty Certificate in Orthodontics as well as a Masters of Science for his research on three-dimensional imaging.

At home, Dr. Adam and his wife, Krystl, have been blessed with two energetic young children, Addyson and Cannon, and an equally playful yellow lab, Mowgli. They put down their roots in Fort Collins in 2010, and have been enjoying all the activities and attractions of Northern Colorado ever since. In his free time, Dr. Timock is an optimistic Kansas City Royals fan and enjoys playing sports, homebrewing, and chasing his kids around Old Town.

Dr. Owen grew up in Montana where he met his wife Nicole at Montana State University. He completed dental school at the University of Minnesota and stayed at U of M for orthodontic residency.

Dr. Owen enjoys spending time with his family, traveling, skiing, and fly fishing in his spare time.

Both doctors place a heavy emphasis on the patient experience. A wonderfully dedicated and courteous staff; every effort is made to be on time for appointments so no one has to wait two hours for a thirty minute appointment, and the office is set up to keep everyone entertained (from the massage chairs in the waiting room to the kids’ room with books and video games).

At Owen Orthodontics, the orthodontic process is created to be as easy and pain free for their patients as possible. The most advanced technologies available are used, and multiple options are provided that are not often found in other offices. Additionally, Dr. Owen is passionate about continued learning and has done extensive training on occlusion and TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders.

Here are but a few of the services provided for all members of a patient’s family.

Metal braces

The most common type of braces used in orthodontic offices. These braces are the new generation self-ligating braces (or braces with doors) to reduce friction and force levels in the early stage of treatment.

Clear braces

Made of ceramic, these offer improved esthetics over the metal brackets

Invisalign

Clear aligners that can be taken in and out for eating and brushing.

Limited lingual braces

For mild alignment, these braces are completely hidden from view.

Full Lingual Braces

Completely hidden, these braces are custom made for each patient and can correct any issues as well as or better than conventional braces

Owen Orthodontics is dedicated to giving back to the community, and participate annually in Give Kids a Smile Day, the Colorado Mission of Mercy, as well as being active supporters of Project Smile – who all provide free dental care to those who cannot afford it otherwise.

Please feel free to call for a complementary consultation. Owen Orthodontics can be reached at its Windsor office at 970-674-7331 or at www.owenorthodontics.com.

Dr. Abid Paghdiwala of Pearl Dental Arts in Newtown, PA, is helping local patients who have experienced tooth loss finally get a new, permanent smile at an affordable price with mini dental implants. Mini dental implants not only offer cost advantages for patients, but also don’t require invasive surgery or extensive recovery time.

July 27, 2015 /MM-prReach/ —

Dr. Abid Paghdiwala of Pearl Dental Arts in Newtown, PA, is helping local patients who have experienced tooth loss finally get a new, permanent smile at an affordable price with mini dental implants. Mini dental implants not only offer cost advantages for patients, but also don’t require invasive surgery or extensive recovery time.

With this new technology, Dr. Paghdiwala can place implants in a series of 2-4 locations on the upper and lower arches of the mouth which can be used to permanently fix dentures, eliminating the need for adhesives and cushions that are typically required for removable dentures.

Dr. Paghdiwala is one of few dentists in the New Town area who offers both mini dental implants and standard dental implants for patients at one location, depending on their unique needs. Standard dental implants are the best option for patients who are missing a single tooth or a series of teeth, and who no longer want to rely on bridges or removable partial dentures.

With more than 30 years of experience in the dental industry, Dr. Paghdiwala has been placing dental implants for the greater part of a decade. He is one of a select few dentists who have obtained a mastership in implant dentistry from the International Congress of Oral Implantologists for his advanced knowledge, skill, and experience in the procedure.

At Pearl Dental Arts, Dr. Paghdiwala and his staff provide a variety of other dental services in addition to mini dental implants and standard dental implants. They also provide standard preventative dental services as well as cosmetic dentistry such as veneers, bonding, teeth whitening, and more.

To learn more about Dr. Paghdiwala and the affordable solutions he offers with implant technology to help patients achieve healthy, permanent, and confident smiles, please visit www.pearldentalarts.com.
