This month we are proud to announce that our Accounts Manager Kerry and eight of her friends participated in the Pretty Muddy Race in Southsea raising over £1000 for Cancer Research. Great job ladies!

Kerry States: “Cancer has affected us all in one way or another. Its nice to get together and raise money for such an important course while also having fun!” If you would like to participate in the event visit: raceforlife.cancerresearchuk.org In this edition of your directory, we focus on nutrient and healthy eating. We have some fabulous recipes for you to try, plus you can cut out and keep for future reference. Delicious and healthy, what could be better!

Maintaining

A Healthy Lifestyle

Perhaps the most obvious advice is to keep fit by regularly working out!

However, as we all know, it can be difficult to accomplish especially with the busy lifestyles some of us lead. To become more physically active, we advise that you should conduct low-impact training that ties into your day seamlessly.

This summer, picking your own crops amongst local farms have become a popular activity within Hampshire.

Committing to a healthy diet is also vital when leading a healthy lifestyle. Not only should you eat the correct foods, but you should also select foods that are clean, fresh and good for our bodies. By this, we mean investing in foods that are additive-free. It is by eating whole foods, mainly from the earth without preservatives, added sugar, sodium and chemical flavourings that you can aim to insert the correct goodness into your bodies.

This style of eating can be challenging to achieve in today’s food culture. However, there are avenues you can select to assure you are receiving the appropriate nutritional intake.

This summer, picking your crops amongst local

farms have become a favourite activity within Hampshire. Today, it is more about people having the experience of actually pulling the fruit and understanding where the food originates from.

This procedure encourages people to make healthier food choices.

Also, buying locally avoids oversea contaminates such as pesticides, herbicides and fungicides. You will find yourself trailing through beautiful greenery while enjoying the beautiful countryside that surrounds Hampshire. Not to mention it is more environmentally friendly and supports your local economy!

The older you get, the more you will see your body responding positively to the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.

To discover additional ways to live a healthy lifestyle we have created a beautiful editorial in this months edition where you can find lovely smoothie recipes that aim to add to your nutritional intake this summer!

At TDG we are passionate about supporting our local community!

Always Remember,

Living a healthy lifestyle isn’t a trend, it’s a lifestyle.

your imagination by remembering as much as you can of the situation in which the learning took place.

4. Sleep on it

Inspired by Ian Dickson’s Blog

Read more about this topic online, and other business relating tips, at www.iandickson.co.uk/my-blog/ Memory is one of the most valuable functions our brain has! So, it’s no wonder that we’re always on the lookout for ways to improve it! The following is a list of strategies that have worked for many people.

1. Use Organisation Techniques Organize information in a meaningful pattern that shows how each item relates to each other. This can be practised through graphs, tables and even lists.

2. Don’t Procrastinate The longer you wait to do something, the more difficult it will be to get it done. If you want your life to be less stressful and less demanding, then organize as soon as you can. Putting in the effort to get things done as soon as possible will lift the weight off of you from doing it later.

3. When struggling, try to reconstruct the context

Sleep triggers changes in the brain that solidify memories which strengthen connections between brain cells and transferring information from one brain region to another. Researchers have tested this process by teaching people new skills and then scanning their brains after a period with or without sleep.

Remember a flexible memory system is best. The essential elements of successful memory work also include the following: • Be organised. Information that is organised is easier to find.

• Be physical. Learning is an active process. Get all of your senses involved.

• Be clear. You can reduce the background noise that may interfere with the recall.

• Be smart. Intelligent application of memory techniques can save work.

Cowplain • August 2018 Edition

We would love to hear your local community news stories please email them to danni@thedirectorygroup.co.uk Closing date for the next edition is 17.08.18

AN EMPLOYEE AT THE DIRECTORY GROUP RAISED OVER £1000 FOR CANCER RESEARCH Kerry and eight other ladies participated in the Pretty Muddy race raising over £1000 for Cancer Research. Kerry States:

“Cancer has affected us all in one way or another. It’s nice to get together and raise money for such an important cause while also having fun!”

Pretty Muddy isn’t like any other fundraising event. It’s a muddy obstacle course that women of any ability can climb over, crawl under, and charge through.

Pretty Muddy events are in waves, each starting 15 minutes apart to make sure everyone on the course is safe.

If you enter as a group, make sure you all join as the same wave as you cannot move waves once you’ve signed up.

You must be female and 13 or over to join the event. If you have a pre-existing medical condition, you should seek your doctor’s advice before registering.

We are incredibly proud of Kerry and her group of friends! We will aim to continuously support them in up and coming charity events in the future.

To book your slot today and raise money for cancer research visit: raceforlife.cancerresearchuk.org btinternet.com
