Reduce Stress: Extend Your Life
By Anita Vogel - FOXNews.com
We've heard for years about the benefits of reducing stress, and how we should make time for activities like meditation, yoga, and plain old relaxation. Now scientific evidence suggests that one of those benefits may actually be a longer life.

It's called telomerase, and it produces tiny units of DNA that seal off the ends of chromosomes, which contain the body's genes.

Feng Shui Tips for Your Bathroom
Most bathrooms are decorated in blues and whites to reflect water, but according to Feng Shui you should use the opposite of the element to temper its transient nature. Since water's own colors are black or blue, choose other ones for the walls and towels to achieve a balance. Water is supported by metal, so reduce the use of white, chromes and silver. You can counteract the influence of water by bringing in plenty of wood - achieved by introducing a green theme to the room. You can achieve this through use of green towels, soaps, shower curtains and live plants. Odd numbers of green plants in your bathroom increase the luck in your life. Also, keep the toilet seat down and fix any drips to avoid your luck and wealth from being drained away. And hang a large mirror in your bathroom to bring success into your day as a tiny mirror does not fortell a promising future.
