Jokes
According to the Alaskan Department of Fish and game, while both
male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male
reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid December. Female
reindeer retain their antlers 'till after
they give birth in the spring.
Therefore, according to every historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, every single one of them, from
Rudolph to Blitzen had to be a girl.
We should've known! Only women
would be able to drag a fat man in a

red velvet suit all around the world
in one night, and NOT GET LOST.

Attending a wedding for the first
time, a little girl was mesmerized by
the whole spectacle.
Finally, she leaned over and whispered to her mother, "Why is the
bride dressed in white?"
"Because white is the colour of happiness, and today is the happiest day
of her life," her mother explained,
trying to keep it simple.

The youngster thought about this for
a while.
"So then, why," she finally asked her
mother after putting the pieces together, "is the groom wearing
black?"

A new business was opening, and
one of the owner's friends wanted to
send him flowers for the occasion.
They arrived at the new business
site, and the owner read the card,
which said, "Rest in Peace."
The owner was angry and called the
florist to complain.
After he told the florist of the obvious mistake and how angry he was,
the florist replied, "Sir, I'm really
sorry for the mistake, but rather than
getting angry, you should imagine
this: Somewhere there is a funeral
taking place, and they have flowers

with a note saying, 'Congratulations
on your new location.'"

What does a dyslexic, agnostic, insomniac spend most of his time doing?
Staying up all night wondering if
there really is a dog.

A Roman walks into a bar, holds up
two fingers, and says, "Five beers,
please."

10 Reasons To Shop Locally
& Support Independent Retailers
1. Local Economic Stimulus.
When you purchase at locally owned
businesses rather than nationally
owned, more money is kept in the
community because locally-owned
businesses often purchase from other
local businesses and service providers . Purchasing local helps grow other businesses.
2. Non Profits Receive Greater
Support.
Local business owners donate more
to local charities than non-local owners.
3. Unique Businesses Create Character & Prosperity

The Local Multiplier Effect

Total: 125

The starting point in each situation is that €100 enters the local
economy.
If 80% of each €100 spent stays in the local economy, the total
amount of of spending that that €100 will generate is about €500 a multiplier of 5 (500 divided by 100).
If only 20% of each €100 spent stays in the local economy, the
total spending is only €125. This gives a multiplier of 1.25 (125
divided by 100)

The unique character of your local
community is defined in large part by
the business that reside there, and
that plays a big factor in your overall
satisfaction with where you live and
the value of your home and property.
4. Environmental Impact Is Reduced.
Small local business usually set up
shop in the town/village centre, providing a centralized variety that is
much friendlier to a community's
walk score than out of town shopping
malls. This generally means contributing less to sprawl, congestion, habitat loss and pollution.
5. Most New Jobs Are Provided By
Local Businesses.
Small local businesses are the largest
employers nationally. Plus the more
jobs you have in your local community the less people are going to have

to commute which means more time
and less traffic and pollution.
6. Customer Service Is Better.
Local businesses often hire people
with more specific product expertise
for better customer service. You are
also going to see these people around
town and they are less likely to be
rude because they have to face you
day after day.
7. Local Business Owners Invest In
Community.
Local businesses are owned by people who live in the community,
are less likely to leave, and are more
invested in the community's welfare
and future.
8. Public Benefits Far Outweigh
Public Costs.
Local businesses require comparatively little infrastructure and more
efficiently utilize public services relative to chain stores.
9. Competition And Diversity
Leads To More Consumer Choices.
A marketplace of thousands of small
businesses is the best way to ensure
innovation and low prices over the
long-term.
10. You Matter More
We talk a lot about exerting influence
with your purchasing choices, or
"voting with your wallet." It's a fact
that business respond to their customers but your values and desires are
much more influential to your local
community business than the large
chain stores.

For the perfect Christmas present

Relay for Life exceeds €100,000 again
well as supporting research to find
cures and better treatments for those
with the disease, are a significant contribution to the fight against cancer.
Finally, she said that the venue and
dates for next year’s Relay for Life
Tipperary would be announced in due
course, and hoped that those who participated in past years would continue
to do so in the future.
Speaking on behalf of the Relay Committee, Padraig Moran thanked all the
teams who took part for their efforts
and commitment and also for their
spirit and ingenuity. He said that
without the teams there would be no
Relay for Life, adding that their contribution was much greater than the
money they raised. Both he and Jerry
Cronin, Committee Chairman,
thanked Toomevara people in general
and the GAA club in particular, for
embracing Relay so completely during
the past three years, and for giving it
such total support. In conclusion, Jerry added that Relay for Life Tipperary
had really just begun and will now
spread its wings and go ahead from
strength to strength in various venues
throughout the county. Keep an eye
out for the announcement of the venue
for next year’s Relay.

Quote
“If you're going to try, go all the way.
Otherwise, don't even start. This could
mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives
and maybe even your mind. It could
mean not eating for three or four days. It
could mean freezing on a park bench. It
could mean jail. It could mean derision.
It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test
of your endurance, of how much you
really want to do it. And, you'll do it,

Relay for Life Tipperary, held in
Toomevara at the end of August has
exceeded the €100k mark for the third
year in a row. At the official cheque
handover held last Friday evening in
the Tipperary Inn, Toomevara, the
final amount from this year’s Relay
was announced as €104,306-29. Receiving the cheque on behalf of the
Irish Cancer Society, Kathleen O
Meara, Director of Advocacy with the
society, thanked all who contributed
to such a remarkable outcome, adding
that the Tipperary Relay is one of the
most successful and well organised in
the country and has contributed
€359,000 to the fight against cancer in
the past three years. She complimented the committee for their work during the past three years, adding “you
are the happiest hardworking committee I have ever met”. Pointing out that
the Irish Cancer Society is not a state
funded organisation, she said that
funds from Relay were used to provide a range of services to cancer sufferers in Co Tipperary, including
cancer information services, the night
nursing service, daffodil centres the
financial support programme to those
suffering from cancer, the survivors

What others say about ‘The Rub’
Hi Dorrie, My husband was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis
and had to come off the medication
due to a reaction. He has been using
the rub and is delighted with the result. His pain has almost completely
gone and it is very easy to apply
with no side effects. Its a fantastic
natural product and he is delighted
to have found something that helps
his condition.
Mary Wall, Limerick
I hope other players find The Rub as
good as my son found it. I am going

to try it on more players who have
persistent injuries. Thank you Dorrie.
Michael, Coach, Cork
Dear Mrs Killeen — Thank you for
your letter and herbal remedy, which
was passed on to me by Sir Alex.
Thanks for your interest in Manchester United and Roy in particular.
Roy is now back to full fitness with
no pain. I will keep your remedy for
the future.

Neuromuscular & Physical Therapy
Physical Therapy is a hands-on, drug free healthcare, providing
a client-centred approach in the field of musculoskeletal health.
Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) is a physical or manual therapy
specialising in the treatment of soft tissue pain and injury (including change
in sensation). A therapist trained in NMT is educated in the physiology of
the nervous system and its effect on the muscular and skeletal systems.
Sports and Remedial Massage is a form of massage regularly used among
athletes before, during and after exercise. Nowadays, however, it is used
among any individual who exercises on a weekly basis or uses their body for
heavy-duty activity. It is well know in the prevention of injury and is a
compliment to any workout.
Deep Tissue Massage is a type of massage therapy that focuses on
realigning deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. It is especially
helpful for chronically tense and contracted areas such as stiff necks, lower
back tightness and sore shoulders.
Cryotherapy: Cryronic Medical is a drug free non invasive treatment for
pain and inflamation. This painless treatment can speed up your recovery
process following injuries.

Counselling
Anxiety

(continued from previous issue)

By Jim O’Shea
Series 4, no. 16. Anxiety. Deep
breathing, negative thinking and
desensitisation
Deep breathing is one of the basic
and best ways to ease and manage
anxiety (and panic attacks). It takes
about 3 weeks to learn how to deep
breathe. It means breathing through
the stomach (abdomen) rather than
through the chest. When this is mastered and you breathe through your
stomach your shoulders will not
move, but your belly and stomach
will expand and contract as you
breathe. It is advisable not to spend
more than 2 minutes at a time deep
breathing, because you take in more
oxygen this way, and can become
dizzy if you do too much of it at a
time. Therefore, it is best to spend a
short time 5 or 6 times a day doing
it.
There are several ways to learn how
to deep breathe. The classical way is
to sit straight in a chair, put your
hand on your stomach and as you
breathe in your stomach will expand,
and as you breathe out your stomach
will contract. Having breathed in,
you hold your breath for a second or
two before breathing out. Some recommend putting a book on your
stomach, and using your stomach to
push it out. This can be difficult in
the first few days, but as you practise
you will notice your stomach extending more as time goes by. Long
ago, I learned to deep breathe in a
rather unusual, but effective way. I
spent some time in the Jesuit order,
and we learned deep breathing to
help us when giving sermons. The
method was to go down on all fours
and pant like a dog! There was no
great effort in this, because you have
to deep breathe when in that posture.
It might look strange, but it works,
and eventually deep breathing becomes habitual.
While deep or abdominal breathing
in itself is a big help in easing anxious feelings, it can be used to relax
the entire body. If you refer back to
an earlier article, you will see how I
incorporated deep breathing into the
visualisation of the wise being. Our
breath is like our spirit. Feel it gently
coursing through your body. It will
also help you to empty your mind
and quieten your thoughts. This prevents rumination, one of the roots of
depression and anxiety. Another
technique is to pick a ‘relaxing’
word such as ‘peace’, ‘gentle’ and so
on and repeat it as you relax each
part of your body.

Since anxiety may come from distorted, negative or illogical thinking,
training ourselves to think positively
is the best possible way forward.
This is not as difficult as one might
think, although pessimistic thoughts
are deep rooted, and a pessimistic
thought has a greater impact than a
positive one. Therefore, anxious
people must constantly practise positive thinking until a new pathway is
laid down in the brain. In practise,
this means substituting positive
thoughts for negative ones. For example, the phone rings, and the anxious person immediately thinks ‘bad
news’. Constantly replacing this
with the thinking ‘good news’ will
help to reconfigure our negative wiring of the brain. This will take some
time to achieve.
Since extreme anxiety means that a
person has become acutely sensitised, one of the most common procedures is to desensitise the sufferer,
by gradually exposing him to the
anxiety-provoking situation. Desensitisation is a technique of cognitive
behavioural therapy, and involves
becoming familiar with the situation
that arouses the anxiety. It means
steeling yourself to feel the disagreeable and severe sensations and gradually getting used to them, all the
time slowly extending the limits of
exposure to the fear arousing event
or place. This requires courage. Who
wants to experience the painful sensations associated with anxiety?
