Summary

With today’s gas prices, you want to make every gallon count. So perhaps you’ve wondered if you should stop your engine at a railroad crossing or if you are in the drive-thru line at a takeout place for just a minute. Listen to the beginning of this episode and I’ll give you the answer. https://slate.com/technology/2008/05/is-it-more-efficient-to-leave-your-car-idling.html Sometimes your own thoughts can ruin your day. Thoughts can become toxic and distort your perception of the world and interfere with relationships. Listen as I discuss how to prevent that and how to take control of your self-talk with Andrea Bonior, PhD. Andrea is a journalist, who writes the popular “Baggage Check” advice column for the Washington Post. She serves on the faculty of Georgetown University and she is author of the book, Detox Your Thoughts: Quit Negative Self-Talk for Good and Discover the Life You’ve Always Wanted (https://amzn.to/2AXyPlQ). There are a lot of theories and opinions on the best way to care for your skin. But what really works to keep your skin healthy and looking good? Joining me to explain the science and latest research on that is Monty Lyman, M.D. He is a research fellow at the University of Oxford and author of the book The Remarkable Life of the Skin (https://amzn.to/3dnvcD0). If you share a bed with someone, how far apart do you sleep? Listen as I discuss why the distance apart as well as the direction you face while in bed may say a lot about your relationship. https://time.com/64966/what-your-sleeping-position-says-about-your-relationship/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!
