Maybe we should put our kids in BJJ. This study looked at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu's effect on young people. The results are incredible. Kids did jiu jitsu 1-3x per week, 45 minutes on average, and they increased their self control by double digits compared to their peers. They showed more inhibitory control - aka, less easily distracted, more focus. Other studies say the same thing: One looked at MMA vs BJJ, and the kids who did BJJ had: • Increased self-control • Increased pro-social behavior • Decreased levels of aggression Another study looked specifically at boys with autism. It found that the social + motor control aspects of martial arts have a huge effect: The group who did martial arts had a 12.79 LOWER score on problem behaviors than the control group. In a world that’s constantly trying to distract us, BJJ makes you disciplined. In a world where kids are increasingly isolated, BJJ puts them together & challenges them physically and mentally. What do you think? Would you put your kids in martial arts?

Magnesium holds the Key to Vitamin D Benefits. Without the mineral magnesium present, Vitamin D is stored in the body and not used. The body depends upon magnesium to convert Vitamin D into its active form within the body. Taking high doses of vitamin D can also make a magnesium deficiency worse.

Addiction is a progressive narrowing of the things that bring you pleasure. Happiness is a progressive expansion of the things that bring you pleasure. The former emerges passively. The latter takes work.

Monday! It's easy to totally forget about our #self-care habits -- the things that make us happy like taking breaks, drinking enough water, and stretching the body. As you start your week, be sure to commit to your self-care. You'll be so glad you did! We got this! #Monday
