Mindful Sex

By Adam Snider On February 8, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and for many of us, this will mean some wine, some fancy food, some chocolate and, if we’re not too full of rich food and alcohol, some sex.

At this time of year, people often wonder how they can make their sex life better.

Careless Monday

By Adam Snider On February 7, 2011 · 2 Comments

I have violated my Meatless Monday discipline!

Up until today, I’ve found that Meatless Mondays have been the easiest of my disciplines to maintain, perhaps because Monday only comes once a week. Today, however, I violated it.

I was at the grocery store near my office picking up something for lunch, and saw that they [...]

Ask the Readers: Love Edition

By Adam Snider On February 1, 2011 · Leave a Comment

February is a month for lovers.

At least, that’s what the greeting card and confectionery industries tell us. (And the wine and restaurant industries.)

Yes, Valentine’s Day is coming, and it’s what everyone is going to be talking about for at least half of this month. And I’m OK with that. Love, even as described by Wall-E [...]

Thankful Monday

By Adam Snider On January 31, 2011 · Leave a Comment

It seems that posting about daily gratitude is becoming my new normal on Mondays, so let’s keep it going this week.

The things I’m grateful for today are, in a way, really a reflection of the weekend that I had. Thinking back to how I spent the weekend this morning really made me realize how [...]

How to Stay on Track When You’re Sick

By Adam Snider On January 25, 2011 · 2 Comments

Staying focused on one’s disciplines when dealing with a bout of the flu or a bad cold is tough. That’s the situation that I’ve found myself in for the past week or so.

It’s hard to meditate when you can’t stop coughing. It’s tough to read the Bible when you’re eyes are itchy and watery. [...]

Starting the Week on a Positive Note

By Adam Snider On January 24, 2011 · 2 Comments

It’s so easy to start the work week on a negative note. Instead, I choose to try and see what is positive about Mondays.

Forget the fact that, maybe, you didn’t want your weekend to end. Forget the fact that, maybe, your inbox exploded over the weekend.

Instead, focus on what you are grateful for [...]

The Book Lover’s Answer to Minimalism

By Adam Snider On January 19, 2011 · 2 Comments

I love books.

I read a lot. But, perhaps more importantly, I love books. I don’t mean the words or ideas contained inside them. I love the physical object that is a book.

I have a lot of books, as a result.

But, buying new books (or [...]

Meatless Mondays: A New Discipline for 2011

By Adam Snider On January 18, 2011 · Leave a Comment

I’ve decided to add a new discipline to my life in 2011. It’s a weekly discipline, rather than a daily one, but I’m going to write about it anyway.

For at least the rest of this year, I want to try and have meatless Mondays.

Now, I’ve already failed in that this week. I ate [...]

Grateful Monday

By Adam Snider On January 17, 2011 · 3 Comments

It can sometimes be hard, for those of us who aren’t used to looking, to find something to be grateful for on a Monday.

After all, Monday is the day that you’re still recovering from the weekend. You’ve got to get back into work mode. You’ve got to actually go to work. And, often, by [...]
