Want to enjoy a few adult beverages with less chance of a hangover?

If
you want to clear your head, try grabbing the hand soap. Researchers

them more open to different thinking. The psychological phenomenon
could be used to help people drop bad ideas and poor behavior in favor
of new, healthier habits. Source Link
The

measurement. What’s a better way to track your progress? Use a tape
measure on your chest, waist, hips and thighs once a week, and see if
your clothes are beginning to feel loose. Source Link
