Healthy Lifestyle Part 9
Yesterday, I talked about the power of sleep, and getting more of it. For most people, it may mean going to bed earlier. But, perhaps you can’t do that or have an odd work schedule. This is where the power of a nap comes in. They are very helpful to us! Naps refresh us and restore our spirits!
I recently read the book Permission to Nap by Jill Murphy Long. I highly recommend it. It gave me a new perspective on napping. I used to feel like I was being lazy or non-productive. But now I am dreaming of getting myself one of the Outback Chair Company Balance Coves. I think I would curl up in there and sleep like a baby bird! It reminds me of a nest!
“People are as happy as they make their minds up to be”, a quote by Abraham Lincoln, that I especially like. Once we realize this is true, it is a “lightbulb” moment for us! We actually have control over our happiness! When we realize we are in an unhappy state, we can decide that we are going to, and want to, be happy. This helps us to shift our consciousness to create happiness.
Being happy goes hand in hand with being healthy. Start expecting happiness as part of who you are. Expect good things and happy times, be grateful for all the good things, and start being aware of all the more good things that start happening. It’s a wonderful cycle to start! I like to reflect, daily, as I take my relaxing time in my Hatteras Hammocks quilted hammock, on all the blessings I had that day. I honestly can say that, the more appreciative I am of my blessings, the more blessings I receive. Try it!
You have all heard we should eat 5 to 8 fruits and vegetables every day, but did you ever count? You may be surprised that some days you might eat none!
Let’s start counting! Being more conscious of it will help us remember. Also, remember, the size of a serving, so, for example, a large apple may be two servings. This Bliss Hammocks brazilian hammock is called fruit sorbet!
Today was incredibly hot! I’m not ready for this heat! It seemed to rain most of the summer, now it’s like July here! I don’t even feel like
working in the yard when it’s this hot and humid. All I want to do is go to the pool. I was trying to picture where I would put one in my yard.
It may be a nice idea, although costly. I was dreaming of a large, blue pool with a pretty stamped concrete deck, beautiful landscaping around the edges, and a couple of the modern Urban Wave hammocks from the Outback Chair Company in hammock stands around the pool. Ahh, it’s a nice dream that may become a reality if I dream long enough about it.
Superbowl Sunday is next week! However, there is always some sport that people like to follow! Football, baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer, and the list goes on.. Do you have a family room where you like to hang out with your friends or family and watch the game? Perhaps you only need an extra chair or two on the occasion they come over? Are the kids in dorms at college? What an inexpensive, portable piece of furniture for them!
The Algoma Hammocks Sport Couch comes in four colors, a possibility to have your team color, and is a great portable couch for inside the home. It also works great for the sports events you attend. It folds up and hangs from your shoulder with a strap, making it the perfect travel couch! No more cold bleachers! You will be surprised at the many uses you find for this handy piece!
Green Eggs and Hammocks: Part 3, Palapa Relaxation Station
Another unique and innovative product from Green Eggs and Hammocks is the Palapa Relaxation Station. It is a powder coated steel sectional stand that assembles in minutes. It holds six hammock chairs, has a central table, and foot-rests. A canopy is available for shade. This relaxation station is the upgraded approach to a patio table with chairs set.
A palapa is an open thatched roof hut found in the tropics. But you can have your own tiki hut in your back yard! This is a fun way to “hang out” with your family and friends. A restaurant may also find this to be an attracting way to draw in customers who are looking for a twist on the original. What a great conversation piece!
Green Eggs and Hammocks: Part 2, Trailer Hitch Stand
The Green Eggs and Hammocks trailer hitch stand is a very unique item! Also known as Hamx2go, it is a hanging chair 
system for comfort on the go! This is the complete system with all the needed parts but it can double as a hammock chair stand called the Xchair. You will need a trailer hitch on your vehicle first. Then you put the support arms from the Xchair stand into the adapter for trailer hitch.
Then you are ready to hang two hammock chairs from the arms. Several different styles of a hammock chair will work in the stand. Green Eggs & Hammocks has a patented Con2our chair in several colors that works well. This is so easy to use! It sets up or breaks down in minutes! It is perfect for tailgating, camping, fishing, hunting, or anytime you just want to “hang out” outside or on the go!
One of my favorite places to sit outdoors is in my Hatteras Hammocks cushioned swing. Sometimes I just pop out here for even a few minutes! I might be chatting on the phone or going through mail. It is 10 steps from my back door, so it is convenient, and, oh, so comfortable!
There are many big maple trees in the back yard. Great for shade in the summer, and a special beauty in the fall, but so many leaves everywhere from them! A leaf raker’s dream (or nightmare!) Today, I noticed that a nice little pile of leaves had collected on my swing. It was dressed for fall!
The Outback Chair Company was founded by Jack Bass in 1997. Their headquarters are in San Diego, California. Outback Chair has earned a reputation for quality craftsmanship and continuous design innovation in the casual furniture arena.
They offer a range of casual furniture products. The most popular item may be their hammocks. They have quilted hammocks and rope hammocks in a variety of colors. Another popular item is the hanging Charleston rope hammock chair.
I would have to say that my favorite piece of furniture on my patio is my hammock chair stand. First, it is an unusual piece, something I don’t see everywhere. Second, it is the most comfortable seat there is!
I have a Hatteras Hammocks chair hanging on my stand with a matching footstool. I take my book or my tablet and pen to write, sit down, and prop my feet up. I feel so relaxed, and when I am reading or writing, I feel more focused. I just love the swaying motion of hanging in my hammock chair.
