Common Everyday Household Chores Burns Calories

Family of Brightly Green 

We all know that our Thanksgiving celebration is a time to get together and share with family and friends a meal of thanksgiving.  It’s all about the meal and being together.  It is the one time of the year that most Americans set aside their diets and enjoy the familiar favorites that Grandma or Aunt Sue, always makes. 

We finish the meal together and turkey coma sets in, ensuing a fight over the recliners. The holiday mode has begun.  Once we’ve had our Thanksgiving meal; taking a side-step from our regular eating habits, we become more open to indulging at various other holiday gatherings.  Office parties, family and neighborhood get-togethers, etc.  Before we know it, our healthy eating habits are beginning to head down the drain.

Stop holiday weight gain before it begins--get moving!! 

Before you decide to set up that holiday gym membership, ask yourself, “how active can I be?” 

You burn calories in many other ways besides exercising!  NEAT, “non-exercise activity thermogenesis,” stands for the calories (energy) you burn doing anything expect sleeping, eating, or exercising.

So, going back to Thanksgiving… before rushing to the recliner, work together cleaning up after the meal.  Doing dishes by hand (for 30 minutes) burns over 160 calories.  Brightly Green Clean the kitchen countertops and sweep up the floor and you’ll burn even more calories.

If you still feel the need to relax on the recliners, don’t stay there too long.  Get up in a little bit  and get moving again.

Do a family activity together that requires body movement and you’ll burn an additional 150 calories for a half hour of activity.

Walk your dog for 30 minutes; both you and Fido will benefit from the outing while working off  at least 140 calories. 

Research for yourself other ideas of NEAT calorie burning activities.

There are plenty of house cleaning chores that burn hundreds of calories.  Just be sure you are using all-natural household cleaners for optimum health benefits!

The More of Less... Routine Cleaning VS Marathon Cleaning

I remember back in elementary school during one of our English subject hours my teacher read a paragraph that did not contain any punctuation marks.  She took a deep breath, and then proceeded to read the entire paragraph—without stopping.  At the end, she gasped for breath and we all laughed.  It was a wonderful illustration of the need for punctuation.  Those pauses within and between sentences allows room for space.  Space that distinguishes between thoughts and space that allows the reader to take a breath!  Those tiny little punctuation markings greatly enhance comprehension of the written words.

What punctuation does for our written language, so breaks do for our 24- hour day. 

What Weeds and Clutter Have in Common

I have come to the conclusion that clutter has similar properties to weeds.  

Neither are enjoyable to confront, 

yet are necessary to deal with if you want peace of mind, & body.

The RIGHT Eco-Friendly Clean for Granite Countertops

Are you planning a kitchen remodel? 

Go with granite countertops –you can’t go wrong!  

Granite has been and continues to be the number one request of home buyers.  It will cost you a little more up front but the return will be worth it!  Granite does not depreciate in value.  It comes in many colors and patterns and each piece is one-of-a-kind.

Granite is also easy to clean and keep in good shape providing you clean it with natural products!  Chemicals will seep into the stone, damaging your investment. 

On the internet many sites claim you can simply clean your granite countertops with soap and water, however, over time the surface will become dull as soap film will develop. 

The best cleaning product to use is one that is 100% all natural and formulated specifically for granite.

Brightly Green Granite & Tile Cleaner is the type of safe, natural, granite cleaner you need!

Brightly Green Granite and Tile Cleaner has been formulated by Prof. Jerry McAdams who fully understands the composition of granite and what it takes to properly clean that type of stone.

BRIGHTLY GREEN GRANITE AND TILE CLEANER is a TOP SELLER of Brightly Green Cleaners!
