Get Paid to Stay Healthy

According to US News and World Report, more employers are paying workers to take a physical, get cancer screenings, eat well, exercise, and take better care of themselves. Irene Gernon of Harrison, N.Y., pocketed $200 from her employer, PepsiCo, in 2008 by completing a personal health assessment and entering a smoking cessation program. She also avoided a $600 surcharge on her health insurance by completing the antismoking program. Gernon figures PepsiCo has paid her $500 in recent years to eat healthfully and adopt other good habits.

Even in the recession, employers say offering financial incentives makes sense. It can lower the rate of health insurance premium hikes. While most large employers saw premiums rise 6 percent or more in 2008, premiums at PepsiCo remained flat. If your employer offers insurance ask them about reductions for you taking better care of yourself. It may not surprise you but if you are in better health, the company saves money, you feel better, and at the end of the year, you may have a little extra jingle in your pockets for your efforts. 

Want to ride for a good cause?

Well last year many of you know that Nike got a scooter to get around town economically. You may have seen him and “Yellow Sunshine” smiling together. Someone propose the notion of riding from one side of the county to the other to raise funds for a good charitable endeavor and well…just to have fun.

The problem is that we only know a small number of people with scooters and is searching for a good cause to help raise funds for. If you know of anyone that would like to participate even if they don’t have a scooter or knows of some really worthy ideas please let him know. There are no dates set but it will more than likely be in the warmer months. This is your chance to do something noble as well as have a blest doing it.

Budding Aroma Therapist

A few months ago one of our staff members attended an advance course in aroma therapy at a prestigious school in VA. They did this because aroma has a powerful effect on the health and wellbeing of the body. Have you felt ill or nauseated by a particular odor? Well aroma therapy works similar but in the opposite direction.

In effect aroma therapy creates an aroma that will have a curative effect on the body and mind. Blending such essential oils as Eucalyptus, Lemongrass, Lavender, Ylang, Ylang, Neroli, and a host of others can help the body deal with stress, headaches, nausea, insomnia, allergies, and even minor cuts and bruises. Give us a call today and schedule your next aroma therapy session with a special formulation for you. 


  All the best......
