Is Your Connection Secure??

Posted on May 22, 2015 by Krissyar

I am a F-Secure Freedome Ambassador because I believe in my right to privacy – and freedom on the internet.

We live in a great era – you can access anything and everything all of the time. Forgot to pay your utility bill and your on your way out of town? Jump on and pay it on your phone. Can’t remember if you used your credit or debit card for that last purchase? Access your online checking account or your credit card account online on your tablet. We have information at our fingertips with the touch of a button -but is it safe??

There are a lot of great spam filters and ‘security’ apps out that say they protect all of your private information – but hackers always seem to find a way to get in. Just today a friend of mine told me she received a text message that her bank account was charged for over $3,000 to Sigapore Airlines (most definitely wasn’t her.) She believe her debit card number was hacked when she used it to pay a bill on her phone so she wouldn’t forget by the time she got home…sound familiar??

With F-Secure Freedome, they offer you the peace of mind – even when you’re connected to the free Wifi at Starbucks. More than a VPN solution Freedome keeps you secure and private no matter how you connect to the web. It also lets you chose virtual location that gives you access to geo-restriced content anywhere in the world. All you have to do is press a  button.

Freedome is available for all Android, iOS, Macs, and Kind Fire devices!

5 Ways to Incorporate Exercise into Everyday Life

Posted on May 22, 2015 by Krissyar
With spring and summer upon us, everyone is on a health kick and trying to get beach bod we all long to have. Well exercising can be hard for some of us! Not only is it difficult to get into a work out routine, but sometimes we have other commitments that are more important, such as working a lot or children or so many other things! Well, lucky for us that are busy, or maybe even just too lazy here is some easy ways to work some exercise into your everyday routine. Let’s get active and start getting healthier, in a simple way!

1.       Get walking a bit more, whether it may be taking the stairs instead of the elevator, or maybe even just parking a bit further away from the entrance than you normally would, in fact park as far away as possible. The walk won’t hurt ya!

2.       If you have a desk job, instead of sitting in your normal chair, bring an exercise ball in to work and sit on that instead. Keeping your balance on that and even try bouncing a bit, you’ll be surprised on how much of a little workout that is.

3.       Take a walk on your break. I don’t know about you guys, but I get two breaks throughout the day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and I take that opportunity to take a short walk around. Any small movement increase will help you to shed the pounds.

4.       Maybe you’re a stay at home mom, or the mom that has to rush to the grocery store after work. Try wearing ankle weights when you go to do these simple tasks. The weights, even if they’re small weights, will help to build up the muscles in your legs while you get your errands done!

5.       Try doing jumping jacks or other simple workouts while you’re watching TV. Who says you can’t get a workout in along with not missing out on your favorite show? You could even just do them during those dreaded commercials while you’re waiting for your show to return, trust me this is a fantastic workout!

See, these are all really simple workouts that you can fit into your everyday life. You don’t have to make some extra time to do a full on workout routine. I promise, doing these simple things will make you feel so much better, and help the weight start to fall off.

Sleep IS Coming with this Nodical Bed Giveaway!

Posted on May 20, 2015 by Krissyar

This is a sponsored post with Nodical Bed and New Thought Marketing. All opinions are my own.

Over the past few years I have realized that I am more resilient than I thought – I can actually survive on less sleep than ever before. But here’s the catch, I need that sleep to be good. I don’t want to toss and turn to try to get comfortable. I don’t want to wake up every hour on the hour with a pain in my back or side, and then try to get comfortable and back to sleep again. I don’t want to throw the covers off because I’m on fire, then wake p fifteen minutes later because I’m cold.  I need to feel like I actually slept; not that I just tried to.
That’s why I am so excited about the Nodical Energex Memory Foam mattresses. The creators of the Nodical Energex mattress created these beds to help solve common sleep problems that they were experiencing themselves. The Energex memory foam and ThermaGel beads are the secret to their success in creating these luxurious beds which are far better in quality than any others on the market.

They are so confident that you will love the sleep you are getting on these that they offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Try out the bed for 100 nights and if you don’t love it, they’ll come pick it up and give you a full refund.

I absolutely love that you can shop online for the mattress of your choice (they make 3 different kinds to fit your needs) and they deliver it to your door for FREE. I don’t know of any other mattress company that delivers for free – that right there makes me want to order one right now!
