Are Alphas Healthier Than Their Counterparts?
By: Dr. Gaby Cora
Alpha males and females have intrinsic characteristics—aside from being competitive, controlling, and more aggressive, they are also born healthier, more energetic, and more resilient.

Listen to this posting as a podcast/MP3: Balance Work in Life with LOVEWhile many have felt the pressure of doing more with less at work for months or years, people are feeling even more stretched to the max. Most of us wonder how long we will be able to sustain such intense pressure. Those who have lost their job are networking, sending résumés and interviewing for a new job. Those who have had their salaries cut down are in search of another part-time job to increase their revenue. And the rest are holding on to several jobs to make ends meet. Everyone has been affected: employees holding on to a job, entrepreneurs striving to survive and investors counting their losses in the millions.

The Power of Wellbeing Tip of the Day: Breathe
You have a hectic day, you run back and forth and when you get a second to sit and relax, you sigh and take a deep breath. Exactly like that first crying breath tells us a baby is alive and kicking, breathing well will enhance your health on every dimension: physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual.
