10 Prosperity Tips




As we all know living a prosperous life is about much more than just having enough money. In order to be truly prosperous, you need to change your total mind-set from lack to abundance. You need to make a mental and emotional shift and start living your life on a more abundant level - in all 8 Dynamics of life! (Professional-Career/ Financial/ Material-Lifestyle / Emotional /Relational-Family/ Physical-Health / Spiritual / Contribution

Below are some 10 tips for doing that:

Prosperity Tip #1 - Do What You Love


When you spend time doing things you really love, you automatically feel happier and you put in motion an entire set of events. When you feel happier, you emit more positive vibrations, and attract the things you want more quickly and easily! Start spending more time doing the things you really love. Spend more time doing things that give you energy. This can include hobbies as well as transitioning to a more fulfilling career.

Prosperity Tip #2 - Affirm You Always Have More Than Enough

The more you focus on lack, the more lack you will experience in your life. Turn this around by constantly affirming, "I always have more than enough money for everything I need." The more strongly you can come to believe this, the more your physical surroundings will shift to match your expectations. Where attention goes, energy flows. So what you continuously put your attention to, will expand!

Prosperity Tip #3 - Take Action

Before he became Buddha, Siddartha spend his entire time thinking and visualizing the world as he wanted. Until he decided to take action. Action isn't always necessary in order to attract abundance into your life, but it sure doesn't hurt. Don't sit around waiting for your circumstances to change - get out there and change them! Things don't change, people do! Taking even one small step toward what you want can often trigger a flood of opportunities and synchronizations that get everything moving in a more positive direction. At the very least, taking action can boost your confidence and make you feel more in control of your circumstances. Are we human being or human doings? Really?

Prosperity Tip #4 – Gratitude and Appreciation

Start your day with gratitude and it will become one overloaded with gifts. An appreciative mind-set makes everything seem better. Not only do you feel more abundant, your very focus on the positive aspects of your life will naturally attract more things to be grateful for. Pick up the habit of writing in your gratitude journal. Make it a daily habit to appreciate the wonderful things that happen to you - even the small things. The more you do, the more you'll find good stuff flowing into your life as if by magic.

Prosperity Tip #5 - Love, Love, Love

The most important force of all, the emotional drive we all thrive by. Love is one of the most powerful and transformational forces. It can heal the most painful situations, transform lack into abundance, and inspire positive change in both the giver and receiver. Practice flowing feelings of deep love for everyone and everything in your life. Love your blessings, your friends and family, the difficult people you encounter each day, and even your illnesses and obstacles. When you love them, you heal and transform them into genuine blessings.

Prosperity Tip #6 - Boost Your Self-Worth


Your beliefs have everything to do with the things you experience on a daily basis. Only when you feel worthy about yourself, you can recognize the worth in others. If you don't believe you deserve abundance, you will continually push it away! Start improving your self-worth and affirm constantly that you deserve to be happy, healthy, wealthy and full of energy. When someone gives you a gift or compliment, accept it with gratitude! You don't always have to return it, just happily accept it. The more you do this, the more you will open yourself to the blessings the universe wants to send your way too. And believe me, there are many!

Prosperity Tip #7 - Make Room for More

If every nook and cranny of your life is crammed with clutter and disharmony, you've got no ROOM for prosperity to come in! The Universe hates vacuum. Once a year you should trow away (or better yet give away) the clothes you haven't been wearing in the last year. Make space to be filled up again with new goodies, new energy! One of the quickest ways to get abundance flowing more smoothly through your life is to clear a space for it. Get rid of physical clutter and release painful emotional burdens and unresolved issues. Clean up your physical, spiritual, emotional and financial affairs, and watch how easily they are transformed from stagnant to vibrant.

Prosperity Tip #8 - Change Your Beliefs, Change Your Life

Besides poor self-worth, you may have other limiting beliefs that keep you from experiencing the prosperity you deserve. For example, do you believe you must work hard to receive a lot of money? Do you believe that rich people are rude and insensitive? Do you believe that having a lot of money would be a burden? Learn to examine and question your beliefs about prosperity - and change the ones that limit you. This is an ongoing process that can change your life in powerful ways.

Prosperity Tip #9 - Fire Up Your Abundance Radar

You've probably heard it said that whatever you focus on expands. Prosperity is no different! Get into the habit of seeking examples of abundance wherever you go. When you're shopping, pause to notice the abundance overflowing from store shelves. Each one of those products began with a simple idea in someone's mind and was created in physical form! Take a trip to your local farmer's market and marvel at the abundance of produce available. Each one of them was started with a tiny seed planted in the ground and nurtured until it grew into a luscious fruit or vegetable. Take time each day to reflect on the abundance you see all around you, and you will attract more of it (in all forms) into your life.

Prosperity Tip #10 - Positively Abundant

Positive thoughts and emotions will automatically attract more positive circumstances into your life, including prosperity! Negative thinking is nothing more than a habit of looking at the less favorable aspects of every situation. But every negative situation has at least ONE positive benefit. The more you can train your mind to look for the blessings and remain open to possibility, the more blessings and possibilities you will see! Start a new positive thinking habit today and watch how it transforms you into a magnet for everything good.

There are many more ways to attract greater prosperity into your life, but these tips offer a simple way to get started.

Life is meant to be lived fully!

What about High Blood Pressure?


What about High Blood Pressure?

So much has been written, so much has been said about it. When we are young we wipe this topic off the table since it seems so far away. Unfortunately more and more people, even "youngsters" get to handle with this. Too dangerous, too serious and too frequent, so let's get a closer look,...

High blood pressure (HBP) is a serious condition that can lead to coronary heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, heart failure and other health problems.
"Blood pressure" is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood. If this pressure rises and stays high over time, it can damage the body in many ways.

Look at it like a garden hose that yo squeeze; the water will need to speed up to get through wich will increase the pressure against the interior side of the hose,...

Overview

About 1 in 3 adults in the United States has HBP. HBP itself usually has no symptoms. You can have it for years without knowing it. And that often is the problem. During this time, though, it can damage the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, and other parts of your body. All that time this is happening without the person not realizing this. How scary is this?
This is why knowing your blood pressure numbers is important, even when you're feeling fine. If your blood pressure is normal, you can work with your health care team to keep it that way. If your blood pressure is too high, you need treatment to prevent damage to your body's organs.

Blood Pressure Numbers

Blood pressure numbers include systolic (sis-TOL-ik) and diastolic (di-a-STOL-ik) pressures. Systolic blood pressure is the pressure when the heart beats while pumping blood. Diastolic blood pressure is the pressure when the heart is at rest between beats.
You will most often see blood pressure numbers written with the systolic number above or before the diastolic, such as 120/80 mmHg. (The mmHg is millimeters of mercury—the units used to measure blood pressure.)
The table below shows normal numbers for adults. It also shows which numbers put you at greater risk for health problems. Blood pressure tends to goes up and down, even in people who have normal blood pressure. This is why we should check our blood pressure regularly on different times during the day. If your numbers stay above normal most of the time, you're at risk.

Blood Pressure Level Categories for Adults (in mmHg, or millimeters of mercury)

Category
Systolic
(top number)
Diastolic
(bottom number)
Normal
Less than 120
And
Less than 80
Prehypertension
120–139
Or
80–89
High blood pressure
Stage 1
140–159
Or
90–99
Stage 2
160 or higher
Or
100 or higher
The ranges in the table apply to most adults (aged 18 and older) who don't have short-term serious illnesses.
All levels above 120/80 mmHg raise your risk, and the risk grows as blood pressure levels rise. "Prehypertension" means you're likely to end up with HBP, unless you take the necessary steps to prevent it.
If you're being treated for HBP and have repeat readings in the normal range, your blood pressure is under control. However, you still have the condition. You should see your doctor and stay on treatment to keep you blood pressure under control.
Your systolic and diastolic numbers may not be in the same blood pressure category. In this case, the more severe category is the one you're in. For example, if your systolic number is 160 and your diastolic number is 80, you have stage 2 HBP. If your systolic number is 120 and your diastolic number is 95, you have stage 1 HBP.
If you have diabetes or chronic kidney disease, HBP is defined as 130/80 mmHg or higher. HBP numbers also differ for children and teens.

Outlook

Blood pressure tends to rise with age. Following a healthy lifestyle helps some people delay or prevent this rise in blood pressure. So again, building and maintaining a healthy lifestyle is key!

People who have HBP can take steps to control it and reduce their risks for related health problems. Key steps include following a healthy lifestyle and maybe having ongoing medical care.

Leo's tips for lifestyle changes

  • Don't smoke cigarettes or use any tobacco product.
  • Lose weight if you're overweight.
  • Exercise regularly.
  • Eat a healthy diet that includes lots of fruits and vegetables and is low in fat.
  • Cleanse your body on a regular bases.
  • Learn to breath efficiently.
  • Limit your sodium, alcohol and caffeine intake.
  • Try relaxation techniques or biofeedback.
That's it y'all, and if you feel like you need to know more about this, just e-mail me or leave me a message and I'll get back to you!

Death might just start in your colon!


This might read as a strange message to many, but I do urge you to read it through. Too many amongst us have to deal with the consequences daily,...

Constipation is the slow or lack of Bowel movements of feces through the intestines. The feces often become DRY & HARD & STUCK because all the fluid is reabsorbed by the colon during this abnormal extended time. According to the American Society of Colon
& Rectal Surgeons, about 80% of people suffer from Constipation at some time during their lives. The National Institute of Health published the survey showing 4-1/2 million Americans are constipated most or all the time. In the U.S. there are 2.5 million doctor visits each year from people complaining of constipation. Nearly 800 million dollars spent each year on harsh laxatives.

You are only 30 feet away from Great Health and Abundant Energy
The digestive system from the beginning of the mouth to the end of the rectum is approximately 30 feet long of flexible pipe. The entire system is made of mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon and rectum. Our inside is constantly smeared with gravy, mashed potatoes, chunks of meat, fish parts, and ketchup, followed with ice cream, coffee or tea. Imagine all of them mixed together, what would it look like? It is first necessary that we chew the food good (basically grinding it all up together) and let the digestive juices in the stomach to mix, mash, and churn to break the food into a liquid mush to expose the nutrients. These nutrients are absorbed in the upper part of the small intestines, mixing with the bile from the liver. The pulpy rotten remains are then pushed into the colon where the water is re-absorbed; the feces are compacted, and disposed out of the rectum. These are the steps of a normal bowel movement which should take place from the beginning to the end (Called Transit Time) 15 hours, and expelled out twice daily which we call Regularity.

THE “GUTS” OF THE MATTER
Constipation is fundamentally the slowing down process of food moving through the digestive tract and that is called “TRANSIT TIME”. Back in the old days of life in the farm, Americans ate right, nutritional and balanced meals, and then worked all day at the homestead, the typical TRANSIT TIME was 15 hours today with processed food lacking enzymes and natural fibers, heavy on sugar, the TRANSIT TIME of food through the gut is slowing down to 70 hours.

When transit time slows down, putrefied nasty material stays in your colon longer and the old feces start to harden and stick to the walls of the colon, causing 2 million American to suffer colon diseases colitis, ileitis, and diverticulitis, and 100,000 colostomies (surgical opening covered with a bag for collection of feces) performed each year. A normal regular person carries on the average of 5 pounds of fecal matters, a person suffering from irregularity and constipation can carry 40 pounds or more of old fecal matter. That is an awful lot of %&*@!

A Job Harder than “Mission Impossible”
As the digested food just sits there in our colon, it is reabsorbed with the water all the toxins, gases, and poisons that are given off by the rotten fecal matter and re-enters our blood stream, this Self Poisoning Process is called Autointoxication. The fecal matter become dry and hard as the material becomes glued to the pockets of the colon wall, leading to Mega-Colon. The average colon measures up to 5 inches but the left over fecal matter distend the colon up to 15 inches thick trying to push the hard stool out of a one inch hole of the rectum. These stuck and rotten fecal matter cause abnormal growths like “polyps”, inflammation called Colitis, weak out pouching of the walls called Diverticulitis (where food like corn gets trapped) and leading ultimately to deadly tumors and colon cancer.

Interesting yes?!

Keep it fun and digesting!

A beginner workout that will get you in summer shape asap!


Summer is racing towards us...are you ready? Or is the idea of hitting the beach in a bathing suit enough to send you into fits of longing for the baggy sweaters of January?

Fear not! Even if it's been months since you've seen the inside of a gym, there is hope for getting a summer ready body in time for the first beach party of the season. Although you should speak with a professional trainer about your body's special needs – and your doctor if you have any health concerns – here's a list of a few beginner workout ideas that will have you shedding the sweats and heading for the short shorts in no time.

Pilates – the perfect exercise for the impatient


I have no patience when it comes to exercise. If results aren't nearly instantaneous, I loose interest. Fortunately, Pilates was designed for people like me. The combination of core work, stretches, bounces and resistance work quickly to tone and slim legs, abs and hips.

Start with a class for guidance in creating a beginner workout that will address your body's specific needs. Or find a good Pilates DVD and start an at-home workout routine. Set a goal of four workouts per week for the quickest progress towards your summer-slim body. You should start seeing results after about ten workouts...at four workouts per week, that means you will notice the effects in just over two weeks! Quick enough for even the most impatient exerciser!

Walking/running to your bathing suit-ready body


It's simple, nearly free and works on almost all body types. Walking and/or running is an effective and fast way to shed winter pounds and firm up flab. And best of all, it's ready made for beginners! Unless you have a health condition that precludes strenuous activity, start with a schedule of ten minutes of brisk walking, followed by five minutes of running, with another ten minute cool down walk.

Do this three times for one week, then add an extra five minutes of running to the schedule in week two. The next week, add another five minutes of running, making your workout a ten minute walk, followed by a twenty minute run and a ten minute cool down. This forty minute walking and running workout three times a week will have the pounds melting off in no time! A perfect beginner workout, and all it will cost is a pair of good running shoes!

Yoga for peace and a better body

Most people think of yoga as a way to reduce stress and improve flexibility, but it's also great as part of a beginner workout routine. The slow movements and poses help to elongate and firm the muscles throughout the body, leading to a leaner and more toned physique.

There are dozens of wonderful yoga DVD's available. Select one that explains how to do each pose, especially if you are brand new to yoga. When performed properly, the poses are beneficial. Done incorrectly, they can be painful and frustrating. As your skill improves, move on to a more advanced tape or class. Incorporating a 15 minute yoga routine into your morning each day will start to provide you with visible results within three to four weeks. The longer you continue, the better the results will be.

A few rules for any beginner workout


  • Check with your health care provider, especially if you have health issues or have not exercised for a long time
  • Start gently. The no-pain-no-gain model was wrong!
  • Make sure you have the right tools. A pair of quality running shoes, a non-slip yoga mat or a Pilates resistance strap are all essential to get the best – and safest – results from any workout.
  • Mix and match your workout. If possible, alternate your activity from day to day. Mixing up your exercise choices will make your beginner workout more effective in a shorter period of time.
  • Stick with it, even on busy days. Five minutes of exercise on a super-busy day is better than skipping a day entirely. Try to do your complete routine each day, but if life gets too much some days, squeeze in as much as you can, then return to your regular time the next day.
  • The following are NOT excuses for skipping workouts: rain (you can workout indoors), a great TV show (exercise while you watch), house guests (invite them to join you) or travel (you can do some form of exercise anywhere, and most hotels now have gyms.)
A better summer body is only weeks away! Ready, set, slim!

DHEA - Anti Aging Miracle?


Many people ask me about the benefits and necessity of DHEA. I am completely convinced about it, using it for many years already. There isn't a book you can pick up about anti-aging, welness or Longevity without reading about it.
To summarize it all, please read what follows;

As we age our DHEA production falls dramatically. Low DHEA has been seen to correlate with a lot of age related problems and diseases.

Medical information shows that DHEA peaks around the age of 25 and then drops by 85-90% by the time a person reaches 70 years old.


DHEA is short for the tongue twisting word Dehydroepiandrosterone.

DHEA is the most abundant steroid hormone circulating in the human body and is present at even higher levels in brain tissue. In fact, brain tissue contains 5 to 6 times more DHEA than any other tissue in the human body. Dhea studies have shown that people with Alzheimer's disease have an overwhelming 48% less DHEA in their blood stream than do matched controls of the same age group.

DHEA is a “precursor” hormone – that is, it is the mother hormone that the body can convert into over 50 essential hormones, including testosterone, estrogen, progesterone and cortisone to name a few.

DHEA levels are directly related to the probability of dying in humans.

In a 12-year study of over 240 men aged 50-79 years old, researchers found that DHEA levels were inversely correlated with mortality for heart disease and all other known causes. This finding suggests that DHEA levels can become a standard diagnostic tool in the prediction of disease, mortality and lifespan.
“studies have shown that DHEA prolongs life expectancy up to an amazing 50% in laboratory animals. If animal results hold true in humans, supplemental DHEA may prevent disease, reduce mortality, and extend life span.

According to Dr. William Regelson of the Medical College of Virginia, DHEA is “one of the best biochemical bio-markers for chronological age.” In fact, some people's levels of DHEA decline 95% during their lifetime – the largest age related decline of an important biochemical yet documented, and an indication of Dhea's beneficial effect on the aging process.

In 1995 at a meeting entitled DHEA AND AGING in Washington DC, John Nestler in his talk hypothesized that the age-related drop in DHEA and DHEA-S, may be due in part to the normal age-related rise in circulating insulin levels. Thus increasing insulin, may indeed be one of the main reasons that DHEA declines with age, and an inverse relationship may indeed be possible; as DHEA levels are enhanced then insulin may drop.

Don't believe me, check it out for yourself. Google around and see what you can come up with yourself, it all will convince you even more.
Is DHEA a miracle? Yes it is, when combined with healthy eating, lots of exercise and a very creative and positive state of mind. As part of a Longevity Lifestyle it sure is a very important ingredient.
Sending you great vibes,
Leo

How to Look Instantly Thinner (Without Pills ;-)


  1. Stand up straight. If you improve your posture, not only do you decrease visibility of the rolls in your stomach, but you also gain confidence!! Pair that with a winning smile and you're good to go.
  2. Wear proper fitting underwear. The look you're going for is seamless - no ill-fitting bras that leave back fat spilling over in bulging rolls, and try on a slip.
  3. Wear long, fitting shirts. These are flattering to everybody since they seem to stretch out your torso. They should fit to flatter your body type, but please, don't immediately dash to the nearest Abercrombie and Fitch. Their shirts are too snug if you're worried about looking thinner.
  4. Choose the colors carefully. Avoid bright colors and patterns; they instantly make you look bigger than you are! Dark colors make your heavy sections look small. Are you top heavy? That means switching to dark colored tops. Also, avoid horizontal stripes; these accentuate your girth! If you are bottom heavy, go for darker pants, skirts, or jeans to slim down your bottoms and legs. Finally, avoid "baggy" clothing, and wear stuff that fits you closely.
  5. Match your shoes to your build. If you are short and heavy, a pair of understated platform clogs or boots can give you height, and also counterbalance your body size. If you are tall and heavy, a pair of dark colored flats or low heel pumps will make your feet look smaller without making you even taller. Avoid slender heels and sharp pointy toes; they will look small on you, and accentuate your size.
  6. Wear your hair and makeup in a flattering way. People will be too distracted by your beautiful face to care about everything else.
  7. Avoid the "I'm so fat" conversations. Most everybody has been involved in one of these and they only bring you down. You are most likely NOT fat. Most people don't care as much as you think they do because they are caught up in themselves. Flaunt your body the way it is. If it helps, make a list of all the people who love you and all the things you love about yourself. You first must love yourself before you love others. Confidence is key.
  8. Wear clothes that are the right size. If you're a size 20, don't try and squeeze into a size 16. It will make you look bigger if everything bulges out. But at the same time, don't wear clothes that swamp you - really look at your body and wear clothes that fit properly.
  9. Don't wear striped shirts, they make you appear wider. Unless they are up and down (pin stripes) which makes you appear longer and leaner
  10. Emphasize the smaller part of you and camouflage your problem areas. If your waist is relatively thinner than your hips, wear form-fitting shirts and skirts that flare out. If your middle is thick and your legs are normal sized, wear looser, tunic blouses with thin, straight-legged pants. DON'T wear loose tops with loose bottoms.
  11. To emphasize your waist and make your womanly figure an A+ wear belts AT your waist or bring clothing lines to your waist. (Have you pants go to your waist; shirt go to your waist; dress line at your waist)
  12. Play up the good parts and counterbalance. Big hips? wear something to elongate your legs and something "chunky" or large around your shoulders. Always look to emphasize your small waist (even if you're making it up)
  13. Do not be stuck on clothing sizes! Buying a larger than normal piece of clothing to emphasize your small parts (legs, hips, torso) may counterbalance the larger parts.
  14. Match your jewelry to your size. If you're a big, tall person, wear big pieces of jewelry. Think a (one!)nice chunky bracelet or a pair of chandelier earrings. A big necklace will look great too -but avoid chokers.
  15. ALWAYS remember: you are beautiful. Knowing that will instantly add an attractive factor to your entire ensemble.
Be YOU, be ATTRACTIVE by feeling so, the BETTER you feel about yourself, the BETTER you WILL BE!!!!

Be WELL and PASSIONATE,
Leo

Rejuvenate your soul this weekend!

Do you ever feel too busy to take even a single moment of time out of your hectic day just for yourself? Have you been constantly searching for more time in the day because you run out of time to get everything done?

I expect that most everybody has ‘time management’ problems at one point or another in their lifetime simply because we fill our lives with too big a ‘To Do’ list and then frantically scramble trying to cross everything off that list every day.

But what cost to our inner peace and our soul’s inspiration do these stressful days cause?

I had one of those stressful days recently, and I decided to take just 20 minutes to write in my journal. I knew in my heart it would be good for my soul and time well spent as I truly enjoy the peace I feel from doing this simple activity. I have been trying to plan more time to feed my soul every day by doing activities like writing, reading, and being creative, but as with most changes that we try to make, I find myself challenged many days to meet my goal.

So, Here are some tips that may help you to get in tune with your inner self again,....

Six activities to inspire and rejuvenate your soul in just 20 minutes:

  1. Take a short walk. Walking can clear your mind and is good for your body and soul. You can walk while listening to music, an audiobook, an inspirational podcast, or just your own thoughts. A walk in a new place can give you perspective beyond what you’ve seen driving in your car. I notice so many more details when walking, like beautiful landscaping, gorgeous flower beds or details on houses in my neighborhood that I’ve never noticed before. Walking is a great way to slow down the pace of life, see the same old place in a new way, or just get in touch with your inner self.

  2. Get outdoors. Another activity that is good for both your body and soul is to simply go outside your home or office and breathe in some fresh air. Feel the breeze on your face and soak in some sunshine. Simply enjoy the day and marvel at the beauty of Mother Nature. Or do another inspirational activity while you’re outside, such as writing, journaling, stretching, yoga, reading a book or magazine, or meditating. Just enjoying being outside in the fresh air for 20 minutes can really shift your perspective.

  3. Practice gratitude. Focusing on gratitude wakes you up to the precious, small pleasures in life, like the flowers that are blooming or someone’s simple kind gesture. There are several ways to practice gratitude. You can write in a journal a few things that you are grateful for and why, write a thank you card to someone, or plan a fun gift or activity for yourself or a loved one to show your gratitude. You can even practice a random act of kindness to a stranger to foster feelings of gratitude within yourself.

  4. Write. Studies have shown that writing just 20 minutes a day for four consecutive days can provide positive health benefits for up to six weeks. You can learn more about this technique by reading Louise DeSalvo’s book, “Writing as a Way of Healing.” In her book, she explains the process that should be followed to experience health benefits which has three components: you should write about 1) a traumatic or challenging event in your life; 2) the feelings you had at that time, and 3) the feelings you have now about that experience. All three components should be included in your writing to get the maximum benefit. Another thing I like to do is to write in different places, such as outside or at a coffeehouse, to see what inspiration comes from being in a new environment.

  5. Read. Read inspirational stories, fiction, non-fiction, or anything else that interests you. Rejuvenate your soul, expand your perspective and relax all at the same time by reading. I often carry a book or magazine with me so I have it available if I have some unexpected time or find myself waiting in line for a doctor’s appointment etc.

  6. Be creative. The act of creation reveals your soul’s innermost desires. Ideas and talents that are uniquely yours will be realized when you create. Whether your passion lies in music, art, writing, redecorating a room in your home, starting a new business, or any other artistic pursuit, you will experience inspiration and can share your unique creations with others if you desire. Or be creative just for yourself by writing personal affirmations to review often for your ongoing inspiration and personal growth.

So, the next time you feel overwhelmed, overworked or stressed, take a break and spend 20 minutes doing one of these six activities.

Change is the only constant recurrent we find in nature, change by choice makes all the difference,...

Enjoy your weekend,

Leo
