Modern Medicine and Traditional Care at Ross Legacy Medical Group Local Doctors Combine Best of Both to Please Their Patients

By Laura Wence, MS Meet Nicole, who after 2 weeks of waiting got an appointment with her primary care physician. She had to use sick leave to make the 2 pm appointment on a Friday. She arrives early and waits until its past her appointment time. Nicole sees the nurse to rehash her family history and symptoms. Another 30 minutes later she finally sees a doctor, a different one from her last visit. This new one asks about her symptoms again and with a quick once over prescribes her hypertension drugs and is out the door in less than 5 minutes. Then she gets in her car and fights Friday afternoon traffic to get to her pharmacy, hoping to get her prescription before she must pick up her kids. No luck, the line is too long.

Nicole leaves the pharmacy without her medication and wonders when she can squeeze in another trip to the pharmacy.

Now meet Mary. She has the same symptoms but went online and booked an appointment the next day at Ross Legacy Medical Group, on a Saturday, so she does not have to waste sick days. Mary checks-in at her appointment time and soon after, the nurse calls her in and takes her vitals. She is seeing her Primacy Care Physician so they do not need to rehash family history. A few minutes later, Dr. Karl Gebhard (Dr. Karl) comes in and starts to look over all her major systems. He diagnosis high blood pressure and suggests a medication to help and talks to her about how to control it with a diet and exercise plan. He is concerned about her family history of heart disease and wants to help her to decrease her risk by changing some unhealthy habits.

His goal is to have her off her new medication in a year and asks Mary to come back again in 3 months to monitor her condition and progress.

During their 20 minute visit, he asks about her daughter’s second year at UC Irvine and about her son’s Eagle Scout project. Dr. Karl also reminds Mary that her son needs to come in for his physical for baseball for the upcoming season next month.

Lastly, Dr. Karl asks Mary if she would like to pick it up her new medication right now in the office with their new VendRx machine or have it sent to a pharmacy. Mary chooses the get her prescription through VendRx. She proceeds to the front desk to book her follow-up appointment, and then walks a few feet to VendRx, where in 90 seconds she has her medication in hand and heads home.

Does Nicole or Mary sound more familiar to you? Which doctor visit would you prefer? Unfortunately, Nicole is probably more common in today’s world with big healthcare companies overtaking the industry, but fortunately in Mission Viejo, Ross Legacy Medical Group is the Page 2

exception, where they use modern medicine for traditional family care. Their philosophy personifies physicians of the past, who see you every time you come in, know your first name, know your family and they genuinely care about you and your overall health. And they are open every single day, including evenings and holidays.

Ross Legacy’s founding doctor, Dr. Karl Gebhard, is a firm believer in not just treating the symptoms, but treating the whole person. He knows that simple changes in your eating habits and getting daily exercise can improve a patient’s health, more than just drugs. Ross Legacy providers truly believe in educating their patients on changing their lifestyle to better their long-term health. In fact, Dr. Karl does not stop his education in his office. Ross Legacy Medical Group has facebook, twitter, instagram and a blog (DrKarlG.com), all devoted to providing health awareness, advice and tips to improve your well-being.

Some other great services provided by this office include nutritional education, health coaching, and pre-operative clearance. With a parent present, they offer free youth sports physicals. Their digital on-site x-ray can really save you time and money when visiting with an acute or even chronic injury, knowing you can get your diagnosis and treatment right then and there instead of waiting for a follow up appointment, like most other clinics.

VendRx self-serve automated prescriptions. One of the most exciting and demonstrative of modern medicine at Ross Legacy is the VendRx machine! VendRx is a selfserve automated medication machine that dispenses most prescriptions in 90 seconds. This machine gives you the ability to receive your prescription medication on-site in their office, immediately following your appointment. No longer will you need to drive to a pharmacy and wait in long lines.

Ross Legacy Medical Group accepts most insurance plans, including Medicare. Dr. Karl Gebhard is a primary care physician with Monarch and MHAP. Still unsure if you are ready? Just check out their 5 star reviews on yelp and likes on facebook. Or meet Dr. Karl and Ellen Boynton PA-C at Mission Viejo’s Community Health Fair this weekend! You will feel good knowing your family found Dr. Karl at Ross Legacy Medical Group who believes “healthcare should always be a personal matter. I make an honest effort to get to know my patients and become an ongoing part of their lives.

My patients are more than just a name and medical file on a computer screen.” Be a Mary and book an appointment at www.RossLegacy. net or call (949) 305-0110 today!

Fitness at any age these celebrities know how to do it

Raquel Welch is still celebrated for her looks and figure, so what’s her secret? The 70-year-old is a devoted fan of yoga, which she has been practicing for over 30 years. In addition to daily yoga, the actress makes sure to mix in cardio and weight-lifting into her routine, and shuns saucy or fried foods in favor of simple, fresh ingredients.

Jane Fonda At 73, Jane Fonda is as fit as she was during her exercise heyday. The queen of the aerobic 80s, who recently relaunched her

fitness brand, follows a strict diet and exercise regimen that includes no trans fats, partially hydrogenated oils, or dessert, lots of fish and steamed vegetables, strength training, and hour-long cardio sessions five times a week.

For Christie Brinkley, looking amazing at age 56 the key to eating a healthy diet is all about colors.

It’s a simple eating plan that can be used by anyone, and it helps you pack in nutrients (dark, leafy greens pack more nutrients than light ones, and orange foods deliver different nutrients than green, for instance).

Christie is a vegetarian and the main concept in her healthy diet is to “go for as many colors as possible in a day.” Part of how she manages to look amazing at age 56, and credits part of it to using Total Gym. “The only constant that I have in my life is that I start whatever I do with my Total Gym because I believe it helps keep me from getting injured,” she said. She also pointed out that using Total Gym is like doing yoga, which she practices. “I feel like in the way that yoga prepares a body for any eventuality that could befall you in life the Total Gym is the same concept. It is constantly stretching and strengthening, that helps prevent injuries.

Mary Steenburgen At 61, Mary still has the attractive figure thanks to her dedication to workout. So, what’s her workout routine all about? Well, according to the veteran actress, “I force myself to swim or work out with weights. I walk some too, but even that’s boring. I’d so prefer to stay in bed – mornings are delicious.”

Moreover, she practices a healthy and balanced diet and always makes it a point to drink lots of water Suzanne Somers at 70 her diet philosophy is based on the way the she learned to eat during a trip to France.

At that time she was introduced to the idea of eating groups of foods together for better metabolism and digestion. She reportedly used this information to stop her cycle of diet and weight gain and slim down for good. She also says that she has consulted many different diet and nutrition professionals; however, she herself has no formal training in nutrition. Suzanne Somers’ diet focuses on three main components: eliminating some foods, separating certain foods, and combining certain foods. Somers also emphasizes eating fresh foods and generally staying away from foods that are packaged or processed. The diet does not require counting calories and does not specify portion sizes.

Instead, Somers believes that if a dieter eats the correct foods in the correct combinations, the dieter will be able to eat three meals a day and eat until comfortably full, while still losing weight. She does not believe that being hungry is necessary for losing weight.

Michelle Pfeiffer at 58. Michelle’s anti-aging beauty and fitness secrets are a vegan diet and running workouts.

She runs 4 to 6 miles a day on the treadmill, switched to a vegan diet several years ago to improve her health and boost longevity.

DON’T WAIT ANOTHER DAY

CALL US NOW IF YOU NEED IMMEDIATE ACTION WITH THE IRS, THE CALIFORNIA FRANCHISE TAX BOARD OR ANY OTHER TAX AGENCY

The Accountancy offices of Kim Coyle, Certified Public Accountant is ready to assist you with any tax matter.

Dear Client; As the new year begins, it’s a good time to think of planning strategies that will help lowering your taxes for 2017. My goal is for you to leverage your tax deductions and credit to the fullest extent.

I want to briefly discuss five different strategies that can be powerful tools in lowering your tax bill. And the really great part is that each of these strategies is easy to understand and implement. Here are the strategies: Here are the five strategies 1. Estimated Taxes In most cases, you must pay estimated taxes for 2016 if both of the following apply. a) You expect to owe at least $1,000 in tax for 2016, after subtracting your withholding and refundable credits. b) You expect your withholding and refundable credits to be less than the smaller of: 90% of the tax to be shown on your 2016 tax return, or 100% of the tax shown on your 2013 tax returns;Note: Your above percentages may be different if you are a farmer, fisherman or higher income taxpayer.

Strategy note: The purpose of making estimated tax payments is to avoid underpayment and late payment penalties and interest. The 2016 estimates taxes must take into consideration the following: New 4.6% tax for the high earners, New 0.9% Medicare tax;c) New 3.8% NIIT explained above. preparation of quarterly financial statements is desirable in calculating accurate estimated taxes.

2.Defer/ or Accelerate Income Most small businesses utilize cash basis of accounting for their taxes, may defer their 2016 billing and collection efforts to 2017, if they believe to have less income or predict the tax rates will be lower next year, and their conduct doesn’t violate any laws. Conversely, if they believe they will have more income next year or they will be in higher tax bracket next year, they may accelerate their billing and increase their current year income. Strategy note: If you believe the incoming Trump Administration will cut the tax rates, you may defer your income to 2017. For employees and executives, this means deferring 2016 bonuses to 2017.Taxpayers who believe they will be in a higher tax bracket next year, they may defer current deductions into 2017. On the other hand, they may accelerate their business deductions, medical expenses, 4th quarter State estimated taxes, property taxes, etc., after consulting their cpa or qualified tax advisor to avoid any AMT trap, and their conduct is not illegal.Tax Tip: If you believe the incoming Trump Administration will cut the tax rates, you may accelerate 2016 expenses.

3.Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) The 2016 AMT exemption increases to $83,800 for married filing jointly (MFJ), $53,800 for single filers, $41,900 for married filing separately, and $24,100 for trusts. Strategy note: Consult your CPA or professional tax advisor to avoid Alternative Minimum Tax trap.

4. Report of Bank & Financial Accounts (FBAR), Bank Secrecy Act Network (FinCen Form 114) must be e-filed If you have a financial interest in, or signature authority or other authority over a foreign financial account, including a bank account, brokerage account, mutual fund, trust, or other type of foreign financial account with aggregate value exceeding $10,000, the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) requires you e-file the FBAR report with the US Treasury Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCen) form 114 (formerly TD F 90-22.1) by no later than April 15, 2017. The new deadline is under the Surface Transportation and Veterans Health Care Choice Improvement Act of 2015 and there will be a 6-month extension available for the first time.Strategy note: Include earnings from FBAR accounts in your 2016 estimated taxes.

5.Individual Retirement Account (IRA) Traditional tax deductible IRA contribution for 2016 is $5,500, and $6,500 for taxpayers 50 years or older. Contribution for a taxpayer married to one who is covered by a retirement plan at work, is phased out between Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) of $184,000 and $194,000.Strategy note: Contribution must be made on or before April 18, 2017.

Please do not hesitate contact me if you want to discuss in greater depth any of the strategies outlined above.

THE LEGENDARY BEACH BOYS RIDE A MUSICAL WAVE OF “GOOD VIBRATIONS” WHEN THEY JOIN PACIFIC SYMPHONY POPS

At the forefront of the Golden Age of rock ‘n’ roll, before The Beatles made their U.S. debut on “The Ed Sullivan Show” in 1964, there was The Beach Boys, scoring hit after hit. And now the quintessential surf band makes its most recent splash by bringing a sureto-sell-out evening of their best-loved songs to Pacific Symphony Pops!

Having made their mark singing about “California Girls,” it seems particularly appropriate that America’s most popular group throughout the 1960s is planning a visit to Orange County.

While The Beach Boys of today bear little physical resemblance to the five cherubic California kids who first hit it big five decades ago, the music is a dead-ringer and will take the audience back to a time of innocence and fun in the sun with songs such as “God Only Knows,” “Don’t Worry Baby” and “You’re So Good to Me.” The angelic barbershop harmonies that define The Beach Boys remain intact and promise a special evening of entertainment that includes founding member Mike Love (lead vocals) and Beach Boy-vet Bruce Johnston (vocals/keyboards), as well as Jeffrey Foskett (guitar/ vocals), Brian Eichenburger (bass/ vocals), Tim Bonhomme (keyboards/ vocals), John Cowsill of The Cowsills (percussion /vocals) and Scott Totten (guitar/vocals), who round out the band.

Performing on both the first and second halves of the program, led

by Principal Pops Conductor Richard Kaufman, The Beach Boys perform

with Pacific Symphony Friday and Saturday, March 3-4, at 8 p.m., in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. Tickets are $35-$169.

For more information or to purchase tickets call (714) 755-5799 or visit www.PacificSymphony.org.

“The Beach Boys were not an ordinary group when it came to melody, harmonies and instrumentation,” says Maestro Kaufman. “They took music to a whole new level with their innovative style...simple, yet in many ways extremely sophisticated. The Beach Boys were truly a new sound, and today that sounds remains as wonderful and exciting as ever.”

The prototypical all-American boy band, The Beach Boys was founded in 1961, when it began rocking audiences, earning early popularity with the singles “Surfin’ Safari,” “Surfin’ U.S.A.,” “Surfer Girl” and “Be True to Your School.” With more hits in 1964 and ’65, including “Fun, Fun, Fun,” “I Get Around,” “Help Me Rhonda,” “California Girls” and “Barbara Ann,” The Beach Boys had formed the basis of a cultural phenomenon that has since transcended multiple generations and continued to bring joy to fans around the world. They have often been called “America’s Band,” and Allmusic has stated that their “unerring ability made them America’s first best rock band.”

“I’ve been blessed to conduct for many performers, including some wonderful groups, and without a doubt, there is something very special about

The Beach Boys,” says Kaufman.

“Their songs are memorable, the orchestra musicians love being part of The Beach Boys’ sound, and the audience basically goes crazy!!

Everyone has a great time, and it is the perfect way to escape the real world and have—as The Beach Boys would say—‘fun, fun, fun’!”

The Beach Boys continue to hold Billboard/Nielsen SoundScan’s record as the top-selling American band for albums and singles, and they are also the American group with the most Billboard Top 40 chart hits (36). They also have 56 Hot 100 hits, including four number-one singles. Rolling Stone listed them at No. 12 on their 2004 list of the “100 Greatest Artists of All Time.”

“Sounds Of Summer: The Very Best Of The Beach Boys” has achieved triple-Platinum sales status and their album, “The Smile Sessions,” has been heralded as 2011’s No. 1 Reissue of the Year by Rolling Stone.

Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1988 and recipients of The Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement GRAMMY Award, The Beach Boys are a beloved American institution that remains iconic around the world.

“The Beach Boys represent America...and for many of us, it’s our personal past as well,” remarks Kaufman. “I grew up in West Los Angeles, and during that time, there seemed to be a special connection to all of us who loved the music of The Beach Boys. Their music captured

a time when there was a blissful innocence among young kids...a time when the biggest problems seemed to be getting dates and finding a way to spend as much time as possible at the beach. Music is the greatest avenue to revisiting our past, and to experience the music of The Beach Boys in concert makes the journey fun, exciting and memorable.”

It all began in 1961, when brothers Brian, Carl and Dennis Wilson originally formed The Beach Boys with cousin, Mike Love, and friend, Al Jardine.

The group went on to cultivate a distinctive sound that was driven by striking vocal harmonies, blending such influences as the Four Freshmen and various doo-wop groups with the infectious melodies of Chuck Berry and other early rock ‘n’ rollers. Their iconic songs continue to soar, thanks in large part to flawless singing from the razor-sharp band.

“It’s pretty miraculous that we can start out as a bunch of guys who didn’t know anything about fame or money, or anything like that,” says band member Mike Love. “All we knew was we liked to sing and make harmonies together. So to have it become part of American musical culture is pretty amazing.”

This concert is generously sponsored by Rick and Nancy Muth. The Symphony’s Pops series receives additional support from The Westin South Coast Plaza, K-Earth 101 and PBS SoCal.

CALTRANS I-5 FREEWAY CONSTRUCTION WORK ON I-5 AT EL CAMINO REAL

San Clemente, California…The City would like to alert motorists of the Caltrans freeway construction work on the Interstate 5 (I-5) in San Clemente at El Camino Real between Avenida Mendocino and Avenida Presidio. Caltrans has begun construction on a safety improvement project to adjust the curvature of I-5 at El Camino Real.

The existing short masonry block soundwall that sits on top of the concrete barrier rail along the northbound side of I-5 near El Camino Real is being removed so the northbound side of the bridge and

freeway can be widened 12 to 14 feet and the freeway curve made gentler.

The concrete barrier rail and masonry block soundwall will be reconstructed at the same height as the existing barrier and soundwall. The freeway center barrier and both southbound and northbound lanes will be shifted to the north. It is important for the community to understand that the ongoing work in the area of El Camino Real is being performed by Caltrans and any questions should be directed to the Caltrans District 12 office at (657) 328-6000. In the event of any emergency, call 9-1-1.

Pacific Symphony Raises More Than $80,000 for Artistic and Education Programs

The San Clemente News

Susan St. Clair with Music Director of the Pacific Symphony Carl St. Clair

Photos by Nick Koon and YaYa Zhang Abundant with symbols of good luck and prosperity for the year ahead, Pacific Symphony’s extravagant “Chinese New Year Celebration and Concert” delighted 180 guests (plus more than 1,500 at the sold-out concert) with a feast for all the senses! The elegant affair raised $80,000 for the Symphony’s programs, and brought together the transformative and unifying power of music, art and dance from both Eastern and Western cultures.

Preceding the Symphony’s first annual Chinese New Year concert, Board member Charles Zhang and his wife, Ling, chaired a sophisticated dinner on the Box Circle level of the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. While dining on a decadent three-course meal, guests enjoyed a performance by Chinese pianist Fei-Fei Dong, a finalist of the 14th Van Cliburn International Competition. Richly decorated in red and gold, each table featured an illuminated LIULI crystal glass sculpture. LIULI fine glass art served as a visual manifestation of the Chinese philosophy and culture also expressed in the evening’s music.

Upon arrival, guests were each handed a red envelope filled with twodollar bills (a symbol of good fortune) and treated to a cocktail reception with tray-passed hor d’oeuvres on the first floor of the concert hall. After an Doug Freeman, Lynn Freeman, Pianist Fei-Fei Dong, and Walter Stahr energetic lion dance caught the crowd’s attention, they were escorted up the spiral staircase for dinner.

The Box Circle level was transformed into a breath-taking room filled with the bright yellow blooms of forsythia branches, colorful LIULI sculptures and an installation of lucky Chinese infinity knots. Here, they enjoyed a performance of Chopin’s Waltz Op. 42, Mozart’s Turkish March and Yundi Li’s “Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon” by pianist Fei Fei Dong. To end the dinner, the Silk Road Girl Band performed on a mix of Eastern and Western instruments while Master Peng painted to the music.

The three-course meal began with a trio of Roast Duck Bao with hoisin and scallion; Five-Spice Seared Rare Beef Cucumber Salad; and a Chilled Soba Noodle Salad with Hamachi Fish and ginger soy dressing. The entrée was a Meyer Lemon Chilean Seabass with miso, bok choy, soy beans, asparagus, carrot butter and crispy wonton. A quartet of flavor— Ferrero Rocher Chocolate Cake, Coffee Chantilly, Cake Tuile and Chicory Meringue—topped the meal off with a sweet note before everyone headed into the auditorium for the concert.

“The evening was a celebration of the rich heritage emanating from Chinese culture and an opportunity to bring our diverse Southern California community John Forsyte, President of the Pacific Symphony with Michele Forsyte, together for a grand celebration framed in the glories of symphonic music, dance, art and vocal music,” said Pacific Symphony President John Forsyte. Event Chair Ling Zhang, and Event Chair Charlie Zhang Pacific Symphony, led by Music Director Carl St.Clair. Talented singers and dancers including the Yaya Dance Academy, UCI Dance and the Pacific Chorale joined the orchestra to perform a variety of music celebrating the wonder of the Chinese New Year. The music included “Butterfly Lovers Concerto” by He Zhanhao/Gang Chen and Hua Wu’s “Deep into the Night” featuring erhu master George Gao, as well as Li Huanzhi’s “Spring Festival Overture,” To celebrate the Year of the Rooster, dinner guests took home a LIULI crystal rooster to commemorate the occasion.

Pacific Symphony, led by Music Director Carl St.Clair, is the largest orchestra formed in the United States in the last 50 years, and is recognized as an outstanding ensemble making strides on both the national and international scene as well as in its own community of Orange County, Calif. This season, Pacific Symphony received the second of two $1.2 million grants from The James Irvine Foundation’s New California Arts Fund to support efforts to deepen, strengthen and enhance its commitment to Orange County’s Chinese American communities. Symphony reaches more than 300,000 residents each year. For more information, visit www. pacificsymphony.org.

A senior-friendly workout to improve movement and prevent injury Exercise is good for everyone, but seniors with mobility or balance issues may wonder what kind of exercise they can do that will be safe, easy and effective. Jogging outdoors, running on a treadmill or lifting weights at the gym aren’t always practical - or enjoyable - activities for everyone.

However, one type of exercise works for everyone, no matter your age or ability, because it relies on improving practical movements often involved in everyday activities.

“Natural movement is universal, and it’s about bringing movement back to the basics,” says Bradly Prigge, wellness exercise specialist with the Mayo Clinic’s Healthy Living Program. “It’s not about following the latest fitness craze or learning the newest secret to weight loss. Natural movement is about connecting with your body and cultivating an awareness of your full abilities.”

Rather than engaging in strenuous activity for its own sake alone, natural movement training emphasizes improving the efficiency of practical movements which can include rising from a seated to a standing position, getting up off the floor, crawling, stepping under or over objects, and more. The objective, Prigge explains, is not just to improve health but also enhance how well you can perform each movement.

Efficient movement can help with

balance, inspire more healthful activity, and provide practical benefits in everyday life - all of which are especially valuable to seniors facing mobility or health challenges.

“The practice and training of movement shouldn’t feel like a chore or something you have to do,” Prigge says. “Rather, it should empower and liberate you, and, as a result, enhance your life. Natural movement training can help improve your strength, mobility and conditioning, but they’re not the direct goal. Those improvements are the result of practicing and developing movement skills that are directly transferable to real world situations, like rising from a seated to a standing position, walking with balance and confidence, and lifting a bag of groceries without injury.”

Natural movement is for everyone because at its most basic level it incorporates movements that are instinctual to all humans. For example, a natural movement workout might include crawling on your hands and knees for 30 seconds to a few minutes, sitting on the floor and swiveling hips and knees to facilitate standing up, or balancing while walking across a beam.

“I realized just how organic this type of exercise is after attending a natural movement training class,” Prigge says. “I came home and saw

my 2-year-old daughter doing the same kind of moves I’d just learned in training, without anyone teaching her to do them.”

Prigge offers some advice for making the most of your natural movement workout: * Pay attention to your movement and strive to develop awareness of your body’s sensations, and how different movements feel. For example, where do you feel pressure and/or tension in your body when making a particular move? How does shifting your body weight or changing position alter those sensations? * Only perform movements and positions that your body allows

without producing pain. Just as walking, sitting, standing and other everyday movements shouldn’t cause pain, your natural movement workout should also be pain-free. * It’s alright - and even advisable - to use your hands for support or raise your hips with bolsters or pillows until you develop greater mobility and strength. * Be kind to yourself and realize it is important to meet yourself where you currently are, rather than where you used to be or feel you should be.

4 great ways to create an outdoor living space

Whether you plan to live in your home for years to come, or have an upcoming listing on your mind, now could be a great time to create an outdoor living space.

Today more than ever, homeowners are seeking ways to maximize the footprint of their home - both inside the four walls and out. Outdoor environments can serve many purposes and are a perfect way to customize a space that is right for you.

As you consider creating a beautiful, yet functional outdoor area, here are some key elements to keep in mind: Outdoor kitchens are in demand Page 14

Whether you keep it simple with a built-in grill, some counter space and a sink, or go grand with a brick pizza oven and abundant seating at a granite-topped counter, an outdoor kitchen is becoming a must. In fact, according to Realtor.com, home buyers will pay a premium of more than 26 percent for a home with an outdoor kitchen.

As with the indoor kitchen, many outdoor kitchens include a cooking area, sink, storage and refrigeration.

As with your indoor kitchen, the faucet outsdie can be the perfect marriage of beauty and function. You can find a variety of kitchen faucets from

The San Clemente News

manufacturers such as Danze that fulfill all your outdoor needs. Need the ability to put water exactly where you want it in your outdoor workspace?

A pulldown faucet from Danze offers great looks and exceptional versatility.

Media makes it way outdoors Many of the technology wonders you enjoy indoors are making their way into outdoor environments. From built-in flatscreen TVs that can stream video, to video gaming systems, Wi-Fi and surround sound, outdoor entertainment has gone high tech.

Whenever you’re incorporating electronics and electricity in an outdoor environment, weather proofing and proper wiring are essential. Keep these critical aspects in mind while planning your outdoor space, and deciding what media you’ll incorporate and where it will be placed.

Bars are big Outdoor bars, like traditional tikki bars, may increase your home value by nearly 14 percent, according to Realtor.com. Whether you’re thinking of adding a bar in tandem with your outdoor kitchen space, or want to simply expand your entertaining area, an outdoor bar requires a few basic elements.

A fully operational sink with a high-functioning bar faucet are a go-to when it comes to outdoor

bars. Storage for beverages and glassware, a drink chiller, ice storage and seating can make your outdoor entertaining area an envy in the neighborhood.

Room for relaxation While plenty of comfortable, attractive seating tend to be a significant part of outdoor living spaces, modern outdoor spaces are re-defining relaxation and entertainment. In addition to seating and dining areas, homeowners are incorporating recreational elements such as ping pong and billiards tables, putting greens, hot tubs and infinity pools.

Firepits and fireplaces are also popular for adding ambiance, and deliver the added bonus of extending the outdoor living season well into cooler months. Whether you choose to build a full-wall fireplace that doubles as a brick pizza oven, or stick with a more modest, portable firepit, adding heat and comfort to your outdoor space can also add value (upwards of 21 percent according to Realtor.com).

Outdoor living spaces offer a multitude of benefits and creative options. Even the simplest of designs can make a home feel larger, increase the property’s resale value and bring years of enjoyment. - (BPT)

Transform your home into a retreat with these 5 tips from a luxury resort There’s a reason why they say your home is your castle. This is a place of rest and refuge so you can be returned to your best state.

The next time you find yourself with a quiet evening or weekend in your abode, make self-care and pampering a priority. In fact, you can borrow a few pages from the wellness playbook with expert tips from one the world’s most storied resorts.

Destination Kohler located in the heart of Wisconsin in the quaint village of Kohler - and recently named one of the top 15 wellness resorts by Conde Nast Traveler - is what you might call a luxurious refuge. Here, after you explore picturesque snowcovered hiking paths on snowshoes or cross-country skis, and enjoy fivestar accommodations at this historic American Club, you can restore your body and mind at the luxurious fivestar Kohler Waters Spa or unique Yoga on the Lake facility.

But even a few simple additions at your home, says Garrett Mersberger, director of Kohler Waters Spas, can greatly increase the relaxation factor during your down time.

1. Include the five senses.

The secret to setting up the best spa experience, Mersberger says, is making positive connections to all the senses: touch, smell, taste, sight and sound.

“If one of these is missing, the experience isn’t the same,” he says.

Even the smallest changes can transform your space and elevate your mood. You can light a candle and plug in the indoor water fountain to create sound and lighting that soothes the mind. Snuggle into a plush robe and encase your feet in super soft socks or slippers after your shower or bath. Finally, don’t forget to set yourself up with a glass of wine and a cheese plate.

2. Prepare your body with hydrotherapy.

People have known this since ancient times: water has great powers of restoration, which is why hydrotherapy is central to any worthwhile spa experience. At home, it’s as simple as making small adjustments to your shower routine.

Mersberger suggests changing the pulses in your shower head and experimenting with hot and cool blasts of water, which he says are good for the skin and blood flow.

But be careful, while a hot bath or shower before bed feels terrific, it’s not relaxing since warm temperatures will raise your blood flow, preparing the body for work or exercise, he says. To ready your body for sleep or relaxation, finish with a shower that’s a neutral temperature (about 92-97 degrees Fahrenheit), to return your body to normal.

3. Release blocked energy.

Start your quest for relaxation with a simple yoga move called the

seated cat/cow position. “In addition to releasing blocked energy, it also opens the spine,” says Ashley Kohler, Manager of Yoga on the Lake at Destination Kohler. To do this, sit cross-legged on the floor and place your hands on your knees. As you inhale, lean your chest forward and lift your gaze to the sky. As you exhale, round out your spine while drawing your shoulders forward, gazing down.

4. Hone your breathing technique.

Breathing is a vital component of managing stress levels, Kohler says.

Yet most Americans only breathe with a third of their lung capacity, creating “flight energy” in the body and cultivating that feeling of stress.

“Conscious breathing will ease your nervous system and help control stress levels and help you unwind,”

Kohler says.

Here’s an easy antidote: Sit quietly for a few moments, taking full-body, deep breaths through your nose.

“I like to visualize the ocean, and imagine the sound of the its big crashing waves with every breath I take,” she says.

5. Relieve stress by going outside.

The benefits of going outside in the winter is not only good for our bodies, being outside chases away the winter blahs, as research has told us. So go ahead and skip the treadmill and go jogging in the park. Or rent a pair of snowshoes take a tromp through the woods. Or take a walk. When you’re done, there’s no better feeling than coming in from the cool air, knowing you are truly in for the day. - (BPT)

Gym-free fitness ideas anyone can do

Visiting a gym to lift weights or take a class is great for your health.

However, busy schedules, tight budgets and simply not feeling like the gym environment is for you are reasons that frequently cause people to stop going. Fortunately, being fit doesn’t require the gym!

Tavis Piattoly, a sports dietitian, expert nutritionist and co-founder of My Sports Dietitian, offers some nofuss ideas for staying healthy without the gym.

Inside the home Stuck inside? No problem. Try some squats or, if mobility is an issue, squat to a chair. Push-ups are another classic, highly effective option. If regular push-ups aren’t an option, do them from your knees or against the wall. Other amazing exercises: lunges around the house, shoulder presses with dumbbells, jumping rope, jumping jacks, running in place, planks and sit-ups.

Outside in nature Being out in the fresh air is a great escape that offers loads of fitness possibilities. Try hiking, paddle boarding, kayaking, skiing, fishing, mountain biking or whatever else peaks your curiosity. Simply taking Page 16

a walk around the yard or block is beneficial, too.

At the office Overcome the sedentary office lifestyle by making time for fitness.

Try taking the stairs every day and park far away so you walk to the door.

Then, use a 5-minute break every hour to do something active such as chair squats or seated leg raises.

Set an automated alert so you don’t forget.

Group fitness Fitness can be more fun when you do it with friends or family. Play tag, organize relay races or create an obstacle course outside. Other enjoyable group fitness activities include hiking, swimming, basketball, soccer, Frisbee and bike rides.

When out and about A busy schedule packed with errands still presents the opportunity for fitness. For example, walk or run the parking lot while kids are taking dance or music classes rather than passing the time on your smartphone.

Nutrients A healthy balance of nutrients keeps blood sugar levels from crashing and gives you a steady source of energy.

Piattoly especially recommends

The San Clemente News

taking a Nordic Naturals supplement daily to get the omega-3s you need for optimal health. Extensive research has documented the health benefits of the two main omega-3s (EPA and DHA), which include not only support for a healthy heart, but also brain and cognitive function, joint mobility, eye health, pregnancy and lactation, healthy skin and hair, and a normally functioning immune response.

Balanced meals

To support fitness efforts, it’s important to eat well and regularly.

The best foods for sustained energy are balanced meals of complex fiber carbohydrates, healthy fats and lean protein. Piattoly suggests eating every three to four hours. Some ideas to include in balanced meals: whole grain breads and crackers, chicken breast, legumes and fresh fruit and vegetables. - (BPT)

TO REACH THE HIGH INCOME HOMEOWNERS OF San CLemente, WHO WOULD LIKE TO BUY FROM YOU.

Sandra White Display Advertising

San Clemente News, publishers of Coto de Caza News l Ladera Ranch News l Mission Viejo News l Newport News l San Clemente News

QUARTER PAGE COLOR This month I have terrific low prices on quarter page full color ad packages. Plus you can choose to either pre pay or pay as you go. But remember these rates apply only if you order this month.

Smart business owners and marketing experts agree that the best advertising program is one which brings you clients and customers. Savvy business managers are wise to be concerned about high volume publications that don’t deliver a strong local audience that would generate immediate income for your business.

Major daily newspapers like the Times and the Register reach nearly a million readers, but do you really need to pay their high prices to reach your customers in San Clemente, Talega, Dana Point?

While some glossy monthly magazines are stylish, their costly rates may not be realistic compared to choosing a highly effective newspaper like these reasonably priced local newspapers which are received by your most likely preferred customers of high income homeowners. This advertising costs you far less money. These five local newspapers are attractive, effective and affordable. Let’s talk today!

2. Who is this woman that raises hundreds of millions of dollars and how can she help me grow my business?

If you don’t know her already, get to know Kelly Bennett, the top society columnist in Orange County.

She also has the top rated radio show and television program “Breakfast with Gary and Kelly. Readers eagerly await her weekly column in the San Clemente News which features major charity events where the beautiful people of Orange County gather for fashionable luncheons and dinners which regularly raise millions of dollars for worthy causes. Permit us to say that placing your advertising where it is seen by people who can afford to give away millions is the best advertising purchase you will ever make. Read Kelly Bennett’s “Society Scene “column every week in the San Clemente news and see why.

3. What does Good News mean to you?

4. How Fast Will this Home be sold?

We’d like to share some actual quotes from local San Clemente area realtors: “SOLD THE SAME DAY that the ad appeared in the San Clemente News, SOLD THE SAME WEEKEND that the ad appeared in the San Clemente News, BUYERS CAME IN WAVING the ad that appeared in the San Clemente News.”

Two factors determine how fast a house will sell: 1.Choose a skilled real estate professional 2. Advertise it in the San Clemente News Whether you are selling homes or other desirable goods or services you should consider the San Clemente news for your advertising.

These affluent nearby homeowners in San Clemente, have more money to spend and the time to spend it. Make sure that these readers are aware of your company and what you do by keeping a regular, affordable advertising message in the newspaper that all of them read every week 7. Why pay more to reach your most preferred customers?

Smart business owners and marketing experts agree that the most expensive advertising is advertising that doesn’t work.

Savvy business managers are wise to be concerned about high volume publications that don’t deliver a strong local audience that would bring you customers. Major daily newspapers like the Times and the Register reach nearly a million readers, but do you really need to pay their high prices to reach your customers in San Clemente.

8. Why do San Clemente Readers read the San Clemente News? In the year 2006, the Superior Court of Orange County adjudicated (approved) The San Clemente News as the official newspaper for San Clemente. That’s why you regularly see stories about the San Clemente City Council, Chamber of Commerce, and prominent San Clemente people in the San Clemente News.

So when you advertise In the San Clemente News you get the best of San Clemente readers.

5 clever hacks to simplify any family’s morning routine

Getting the family out the door on time every morning is no small feat. Seemingly simple tasks like getting dressed, packing backpacks and making breakfast can quickly turn into chaos.

Before you know it, you’re running late and the kids haven’t even eaten as you dash to the car.

Stop dreading the stressful start to the day and start taking control of your mornings. A few simple tips and tricks will turn the morning craze into smooth sailing. Plus, when you have a stress-free start, the rest of the day just seems to go better.

Select a week’s worth of clothes Sunday night.

Instead of choosing outfits the night prior, supersize your time-saving efforts by doing this task just once on Sunday night. Involve kids in selecting their clothes for the week so they feel empowered in their choices. Then hang entire outfits in the closet or stack in one drawer dedicated to weekday wear. When mornings come, kids know exactly where to find the day’s duds. Bonus: you don’t have to worry about midweek laundry.

Create a routine and set alarms.

Create a morning routine and stick to it. For example, kids wake at 7 a.m., eat breakfast at 7:15 a.m., get dressed and ready at 7:30 a.m., then out the door by 8 a.m. And if the kids need to share a bathroom, set a daily bathroom schedule with alarms to keep kids on track and avoid arguments in the morning.

Get ready before waking up the kids.

Trying to ready yourself for the day while helping the kids is a recipe for disaster. This is why waking before the rest of the family really makes mornings happier. Try getting up 30 minutes before the kids so you have time to get ready and enjoy a cup of coffee. You’ll be fully awake, much happier and can focus on helping the kids stay on-task.

Create morning rules.

Just like you don’t let kids eat dessert before dinner to ensure they eat well, set rules for the morning to keep things moving. For example, no TV until all morning tasks are completed. For teens, smartphones and other mobile devices must remain on the kitchen table until they are ready to go.

Sundays = meal prep.

Make a week’s worth of PB&Js on Sunday and put them in the freezer. This way lunch items are ready to go and the sandwiches will be thawed and ready to eat by lunchtime. For breakfast, make it easy for kids by setting out shelf-stable items they can make themselves. New Jif(R) Peanut Butter and Naturally Flavored Cinnamon Spread keeps mornings interesting. Set out a jar by a loaf of bread and kids can quickly make a tasty sandwich they’ll devour. Learn more at jif.com.

Want to up the ante for breakfast without spending any extra morning time in the kitchen?

Try this recipe for delicious overnight oats that can be made in the evening and customized for each family member.

Protein Power Packed Overnight Oatmeal Recipe Courtesy of WhipperBerry.com Prep time: 5 minutes Cook time: 8 hours Serves: 1-2 Ingredients: 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled-oats 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt 1/4 cup pecans 1/4 cup fresh blueberries and raspberries Large spoonful of Jif(R) Peanut Butter and Naturally Flavored Cinnamon Spread (or Maple
