You Know You Want Sexy Abs! The next month or two of work on Xanga 2.0 is going to be busy, so I wanted to share with everyone a roadmap of how we’re thinking about things! We’re dividing the work on this project into four basic phases. Phase 1. Data migration As described here, we’ve imported over every account that we have on Xanga over to the new system so that anyone who could sign into Xanga can still sign into Xanga 2.0. (Try it here!) Finally and most important of all, we’ve imported over 2 million blogs from the old system. . * We’ve archived the blogs of the hundreds of thousands of blogs where the user has logged in in the past 5 years and has at least two subscribers. * We did an additional set of archives for 200k users who had logged in the past year and had at least 10 blogs. * We’ve also archived the blogs of every single user that’s ever been premium at any point in the past… And of course, a lot of you guys archived your own blogs using the old Xanga archive generator.

Phase 2. Phase 3. Phase 4. 10 Yoga Poses to Fight Depression and Anxiety. The mind, body and spirit are all connected and when a person suffers from mild depression or anxiety, the body is out of balance.

10 Yoga Poses to Fight Depression and Anxiety

Yoga is a series of stretches that helps bring balance to the body; not just focusing on the body’s health, but also on the mind and spirit. Always consult a physician or counsellor if you are having ongoing feelings of depression or anxiety and before trying any new exercise program. 1. Begin with the Lotus position, sitting crossed legged with hands resting on the knees, palms up. The most important thing is to remember to breathe. 2. 3. 4. 5. & 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Slowly wake up the body, wiggling the toes and fingers.

Focusing on breathing and practicing yoga poses can calm momentary anxiety and depression by giving the mind a peaceful focus and re-energizing the body.

Ever Wished There Was Just a Roadmap that Would Guide You to the Finish of Your First Marathon, Starting From Where You Are Now?

They tell you how many miles to run each day, and that’s really what it’s all about, right? But running a marathon is about more than just running. It’s about setting the right goals, making sure you get the proper nutrition, doing the right kind of cross-training, resting when your body needs it the most. A generic schedule won’t get you there. But I will. You might call it magic. “You need to have a plan –- a map, if you will –- to get through a run of this distance. -Brendan Brazier, vegan professional Ironman triathlete, bestselling author of Thrive, formulator of Vega natural sports nutrition line Just add determination. You don’t need to be a super-athlete, you don’t need to count calories, and you don’t need fancy gadgets. “A few years ago, I couldn’t even run one mile … the Marathon Roadmap helped me go the distance, and if it worked for me, it can work for anyone!”
