The Weekly Grind

Mother's Day always seems to be fraught with having to figure-out what to get Mom for her special day. So I'm here to help.

Why not show her you care about her and her health by giving her one of ClearClub's custom-fit dental guards? They're the perfect gift! Actually, not just for mom but for everyone on your all-year list!

Since we at ClearClub care about not just your dental health, but your overall health, let me tell you that two days from now, May 1, Skin Cancer Awareness Month begins. So let's all honor it by scheduling our annual skin checks right away.

Doing that is so important! And it's one of the easiest medical things you can do for yourself.  You just go to the dermatologist, and he or she looks over all your skin. (With your underwear on, of course. So rock the good stuff that day!) If there’s something you’re worried about, just point it out, because you know your own body better than anyone else! (Make sure they even check your scalp!)

April Fool’s Day is actually my favorite day of the year, and I’m always amazed that so many people either don’t pull pranks at all or do them the wrong way. So I'm here to explain how to do April Fool's jokes correctly.

But first, realize that either way, there's stress involved. So you may want to be rocking your ClearClub dental guards all day, whether you'll be pulling the pranks yourself or are worried that others will be out to get you today. They'll absorb all that grinding and clenching that you're sure to be experiencing. 

As I'm sure you're aware by now, the purpose of our ClearClub night guards is to absorb some of the day-to-day stress that we all experience, especially while we're sleeping. 

Nothing will work better than those to help with all that, but I have found that during waking hours, occasionally indulging in mindless individual games, like uber-easy Solitaire, (as opposed to using-your-brain games like Word Cube,) can quiet my mind and calm my stress a bit. 

At the beginning of each year, we all tend to evaluate how we’re doing every little thing in our lives.  And one major complaint that I always hear, and see on social media, is that nobody seems to be able to get a good night’s sleep anymore, especially in the last two years.

So after speaking to a few experts on the subject, and doing tons of my own research, and trying out every tip I’ve come upon, I’ve broken it down to these top tips to help you sleep a bit better. If you're in the category of insomniac, as soooo many of us are, I hope that at least one of them helps you.

How lucky am I to have my birthday fall on my blog post day? So I get to celebrate myself along with my ClearClub night guard! Yay.

As much as I love my bday, it always seems to be accompanied by a lot of stress. (I'm sure I'm not the only one who experiences that.) First of all, I drive myself crazy over whether or not to have a party. If that answer is yes, then I ruminate over just whom to invite, where to throw it, what the theme should be, what to serve, what to do about music, etc. You know the drill. It's crazy! 

HAPPY NEW YEAR, CLEARCLUBBERS!

I hope that you've all had a wonderful first week of 2022.

Now let's all get the new year off to a great start by checking on our health, right off the bat. This is the time to schedule all of our doctor and dentist check-ups. All too often many of us procrastinate in this area, (I'm raising my own hand,) and then panic when it gets later in the year. So I suggest we all do it right now.

As I'm sure so many of you are, as well, I'm so into skin care these days. I want to fully foray back out into the world looking and feeling my best. 

And these winter months can be extra-hard on our faces. Besides the drying effects of the weather, we also have more holidays events than usual, which can mean that some of us may wear more face make-up in these four or five weeks than we do the rest of the year!!! So we have to be extra vigilant right now in our skincare routines.
