Show Review: The Good Place

Show Review: The Good Place

Kristen Bell and Ted Danson change up the after life. I really like Kristen Bell. I am a die hard Veronica Mars fan and wish they would just make the movie already or a revival miniseries or- oh forget it. Kristen Bell has a cute, quirky, sweet personality that comes across in her characters. This new role as Eleanor fits her well even though she is a total pass (I don't think we can say ass in the good place). The good place is like heaven; unfortunately, Eleanor does not belong there and her presence is messing up Michael's, played by Ted Danson, perfect heavenly creation.

It is nice to see Ted Danson on the small screen. He looks remarkably well. The premier episode was really good for the first 20 minutes. I had some laugh out loud moments which I always appreciate. It is hard to tell if there is enough meet in The Good Place to say it has staying power. The Good Place is cute and a good watch. It is all about how an extremely selfish person accidentally got into heaven and now has to, against her nature, attempt to do genuine good deeds to stay and not cause destruction. I have to see a few more episodes to see if it is worth a long time commitment.

I am determined this season to watch more comedies as laughter is healing and a really good stress reliever.

Do Something Different

Do something different. Shake your life up a bit. Our brains are funny little 3 pound masses that can take us for a loop and we are still learning so much about it. As much as I enjoy having a routine in my life because it gives me the illusion of having control, variety is also key for cognitive health. Soomi Lee, PhD, assistant professor in the USF College of Behavior and Community Sciences reports "findings suggest that active and engaged lifestyles with diverse and regular activities are essential for our cognitive health." I am not a regular baker but I wanted to do something different. I have not baked in quite some time and I probably won't even eat all the cake but it was a fun and different activity to do. So even if you do not do something drastic. Shaking things up even a little bit can help change the trajectory of your thought, attitude and day.  Article Source:  Variety and consistency are essential to keep the mind health My related Tiktok below @wandatob

Redirect Your Focus away from Lizzo

Redirect Your Focus away from Lizzo Scroll down to listen to the podcast here Recently a comedian has been under fire for making hurtful comments toward the artist Lizzo about her weight. Aries Spears in an attempt to be funny mocks Lizzo about her weight and her looks. He also goes on to say that he can get away with being a big dude and women cannot. He then attempts to pivot in a spectacular show of hypocrisy that instead of supporting her expressions of confidence women should be pointing out potential health issues linked with obesity. Sir! What are you doing? I really wanted to take this opportunity to point out that we as a people, as a nation should be less focused on individuals and more on the industry that’s putting crappy overprocessed foods on the shelves. They are appealing to our need for convenience. They are using science and psychology to influence us to buy these crappy foods. And let's face it, who doesn’t love a good sweet or salty snack or fast food that we ca

Bust Off That Gut With the Insanity Workout By Carl Barton It can be quite the dizzying experience trying to find the right workout regimen when a person decides to get back into shape. In many cases, it takes a high level of commitment to stay on track with whatever kind physical of activity and/or diet that is chosen. For people who truly desire results and have a high motor, the Insanity Workout could be the right option for a variety of reasons. The Insanity Workout is a high energy workout routine that works on the interval training method. The interval method stresses a period of high activity followed by a period of low activity. This is the key to workout regimen because it warms up muscles, builds them up, and acts as a lactic acid conditioner. By building up a lactic acid tolerance, muscles become stronger while building up someone's endurance. When applying this kind of aerobic training to the human body, the pyramid system is a base model for the workout routine.
