Energy Efficiency Tips

Energy Efficiency Tips

You can save energy dollars by following these simple tips. Many of them are common sense suggestions that require no tools or out of pocket expense. Over time, you will see your energy efficiency increase and your energy savings multiply.

Heating/Cooling
* Clean or replace filters at least once a month.
* Dirty filters make your system work harder and run longer than necessary.
* They also encourage the buildup of mold and mildew, making cleaning more difficult.

Shade outside air conditioning units (condensers).
A/C units shaded by trees or other means work more efficiently and use up to 10% less electricity.

* Clean your AC's condenser/evaporator coils at the beginning of the season.
* Clean coils lower your energy costs, extend the unit's life and provide cleaner air for you to breathe.
* The fin coils on the outside AC unit can be washed with a hose.
* Coils on inside units may be difficult to get to and may require a trained technician.

* Keep debris and high grass away from the condenser. These obstacles block the airflow to the unit. Blockage makes the condenser work harder and run longer.

* Set your thermostat at 78 in the summer and 68 in the winter.
Each degree cooler or warmer will increase your energy use by 6 to 8%. For instance, setting your thermostat at 72 in the summer could increase energy use by up to 40%. The same is true if you set your thermostat for higher energy use in the winter.
One of the best ways to save energy dollars is to use less air conditioning and heating.

* If you have central air conditioning, do not close vents in unused rooms.
This could increase pressure and cause leaks in your ducts. This does not apply to homes or apartments with window units where closing off unused rooms will reduce cooling costs and increase comfort.

* Consider new high efficiency air conditioners and heat pumps.
They use up to 40% less electricity than older models for the same amount of running time.

Your electric company may have programs available for lower-income and disabled people. Do the research or have a friend help you find out. I had a dear friend look into this for our family, and we will be getting help.

If there is one thing I have experienced in this life time, it is the generous support and help from family and friends. I wish this for everyone.

May God Bless you and I hope these tips have helped someone today. Praying for a pain and fatigue free day.

FibroViv

Constant Flares...do you have those?

Constant flares, sometimes with less intensity. That is something we experience with Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

Cold or damp weather, poor sleep, fatigue, stress or over-exertion makes our pain worse.

Tingling (pares thesis) is a pins-and-needles sensation, like when the foot "falls asleep", is what we also experience on different parts of our bodies.

These are symptoms that are not apparent to the outside world, the people that see us day in and day out. I pray that friends and family try to educate themselves and try to understand the symptoms people with this terrible disease feel and try to deal with on a daily basis.

I pray and hope that this information has helped someone understand the pain and fatigue we feel daily. I also pray for pain free days for anyone experiencing these symptoms.

One's Attitude

Ones attitude toward life makes every possible difference in one's living. Life doesn't change so much as you change.

Think about this when times seem hard or you feel you have been treated badly.

Stressed Out?

When you are stressed out:

- chomp on celery,
- carrots,
- and take a walk,
- try focusing on something else,
- let it go,
and let life take its course.


I pray and hope this post has helped someone today.

Thought for the day

You may give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.

Thought for the day

Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it
the seed of an equal or greater benefit.

Liquidity International - Wellness Products

A natural approach toward personal wellness and a healthier lifestyle;try quality nutritional supplements and advanced skin products.

LiquiVida™ is a power-packed liquid with a high content of organically grown Aloe Vera and a combination of rich antioxidants. Today, many companies produce products from exotic fruits, such as Noni, Mangosteen, Goji and Blueberry, due to their high antioxidant content. Liquidity has brought together all of these powerful antioxidants and added them with Aloe Vera, which is scientifically recognized to be the best delivery system for quicker results. LiquiVida™, which means “Liquid Life”, is a literal fountain of youth in a bottle.

The world of science has well-documented studies revealing highly oxygenated cells can better resist disease. Oxygen is essential to good health and is proven to increase energy, help the body prevent disease and better repair itself when injured.

Liquidity’s MVM™ has a special process patent (Patent #6,482,942). This process patent dictates the natural extraction of MVM™ from Aloe Vera without using heat or ethanol. This ability to naturally process Aloe Vera is hailed as one of the greatest supplement breakthroughs in the last one hundred years. Thanks to Dr. Vittori, we now have a natural substitute known as MVM™. MVM™ provides our consumers with the "O-Factor" in an easy to swallow capsule.

LiquiGenics™ emerges as a leader in our world-wide struggle with weight management. It creates a Thermogenic process which helps to naturally increase heat in the body, resulting in yellow fat burned as energy instead of stored as excess weight. When mixed with water, metabolism boosters are formed to initiate and aid in a more rapid weight loss. Adding LiquiGenics™ to good drinking water promotes proper hydration, which is critical for proper fat elimination.

Plus™ is an all- natural energy and endurance formula. Synergistically formulated with 11 whole herbs (no extracts) along with soluble fiber and Chromium Picolinate, Plus™ promotes lean muscle mass and is designed to promote optimum health.* The 11 herbs include: Chromium Picolinate, Gum Karaya, American Desert Herb, Guarana, Korean Ginseng, Bee Pollen, White Willow Bark, Bladderwrack, Gotu Kola, Licorice Root, Reishi Mushroom, Astragalus, Ginger Root, Rehmannia Root.
