CASTING PAID COMMERCIAL-NEED MOM'S OF MELLENNIALS-APPLY TODAY!
by Abe Ronen via NEohioPAL 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

PAID non-union COMMERCIAL CASTING for an undisclosed major retail company in Cleveland, Ohio. Seeking MOTHERS OF MILLENNIAL CHILDREN (Moms with adult children age 18-32) to share a personal story about their own past, for instance, before having children, OR a story about themselves and/or their children from when the children were small through present day. We’re wondering, “What might your adult child NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU?” What story haven’t they heard “all” of the parts of? Your stories can be lighthearted, funny or touching but they should reveal something about yourself that your child doesn’t know. For example, BEFORE I GOT MARRIED AND DROVE A MINIVAN, I RODE A HARLEY, or WHEN I MET YOUR DAD FOR THE FIRST TIME, I THOUGHT HE WAS A NERD." It is important that your stories NOT be known to your children OR that there are aspects or important details of your story that you have purposefully left out in the past so the element of surprise is still in play on the shoot day (where we will have you reveal your story to your adult child on film). You (AND your millennial child) must be available for the shoot day, Thursday, April 13, 2017 in Cleveland, Ohio to be considered. If chosen for the commercial, pay is $750 each person for up to an 8 hour long shoot day. Accepting submissions from those in Northeast Ohio and the neighboring region including Pittsburgh, Columbus, etc. Please submit a cell phone video of yourself telling your 1-4 minute story, along with a still photo of yourself and your adult son or daughter to marcyronen(a)gmail.com ASAP! Please put MOM STORY in the subject line of your e-mail. Include your name and contact info along with your video and still images (we prefer .jpeg files). Make sure you are well lit in the video and that it is quiet in the room you are recording in. Fill the frame with your face so we can see you clearly. Remember not to discuss the story you are submitting with your family members! Looking forward to hearing your stories! Submit today!

Drs. Oz and Roizen on Meditation
by via NEohioPAL 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

Buddha may have been a vegetarian or, say some disciples, he may have eaten whatever he was offered, including vegetables, fruit and meats. But his eating style is not what we mean when we talk about the power of the "meditation diet." A study in the journal Obesity reveals that folks who have higher levels of the stress hormone cortisol in their hair (yup, stress even gets in there!) suffer from chronic stress, have larger waist circumferences (making their RealAge older), weigh more and have a higher body mass index. Whether stress comes first followed by weight gain, or extra pounds fuel your body's stress responses doesn't matter; we bet it's both. In studies at Dr. Mike's Cleveland Clinic, taking an online stress-busting course resulted in a three-quarter-pound weight loss each week for the eight weeks participants took the course. So, if you're struggling to achieve a healthy weight, it's time to try the stress-busting meditation diet. Bonus: You'll also have a noticeably sharper memory and a clearer brain. Set aside times in your schedule to meditate. Find a quiet environment; turn off cellphones and disconnect from the internet. Then ... 1. Sit in a comfortable position with good posture. Breathe in through your nose slowly for four seconds and exhale slowly through an open mouth, saying, "Om." Repeat. Over time, build up to an eight-second exhale. 2. Let your mind drift. Recognize thoughts as they float by; let them drift away. You'll be dispelling stress and the cortisol that packs on pounds.
