Father' Day
06/15/09
I hosted a great family father’s day for my husband this year. We got in the pool and cooled off, and, then I got behind the barbeque instead of my husband.
On the menu were chicken, salmon, and vegetable kabobs. My sister-in-law brought a caprese salad with an awesome variety of tomatoes and a s’more ice cream cake. I made asparagus and a beet and carrot stir fry, that everyone loved, and some mango sorbet.
There was a family dart championship and general fun had by all. The end of the day brought exclamations that we need to get together more often. This seems to be said at every holiday gathering, but then we all get caught back up with the process called life.
Being socially connected is a very important part of being human and staying healthy. Many studies have shown that people who have strong and supportive relationships, live longer lives. Family and friends that provide supportive relationships can counter the effects of stress in our lives. Social support actually lowers the body’s production of cortisol and other stress hormones. So don’t wait for the next holiday to get together with those you care about. Make your commitment today.
Living a life of personal balance, moderation, education, and connection
