What’s Your Investment Risk Tolerance? Different investors prefer different levels of risk. How can you know your own risk tolerance? To some extent, your personal preferences can determine your capacity for investment risk. If you take chances in other areas of your life, you might be more willing to take on greater risk when you invest, in exchange for potentially greater rewards. However, your risk tolerance can change over time. When you’re just starting out in your career, you may feel you can invest more aggressively, since you have years to overcome short-term downturns. But as you near retirement, you may want to reduce your risk exposure. Also, you may have different levels of risk tolerance for different goals. For example, if you need a certain amount for a new car or a long vacation in a year or so, you may want to put away money in a low-risk vehicle, so you can be confident the funds will be there when you need them. Risk is part of investing – but the greatest risk of all is not investing for your goals. This content was provided by Edward Jones for use by your local, Lee’s Summit financial advisors.

Soaking up the last of summer

Summer has a way of slipping through our fingers, and as we look forward to trading the heat and humidity for crisp fall nights and all things pumpkin spice, many of us seek opportunities to pack in every last moment of fun and frivolity before the kids head back to school. When my own kids were younger, we spent our summers adventuring far and wide, exploring everything from marbles at the Moon Marble Company and butterflies and the big bug exhibit at Powell Gardens, to virtually every soccer complex within a three hour radius playing three v. three summer soccer. I treasured those moments that are now fond memories, introducing my children to people and places as frequently as possible. Now that our first grandchild is on the way, I find myself pondering all the activities and field trips we’ll get to take and enjoy. I know my perspective will be different this time around, but from those of my friends who are already grandparents, I hear it’s the most rewarding gig yet. Whether you’re enjoying the ride as a parent yourself, if you share time with nieces, nephews and neighbors, or perhaps you’ve made the transition into grand parenting, I hope you’ll enjoy the fun ideas in this issue. From recipes to enjoy together, to goat yoga and learning how to make at-home treats for your pups, options abound for investing your most precious resource of time with your loved ones. Set aside your technology and make some memories! Wishing you health, happiness and a grateful heart these last few weeks of summer.

Healthy Tips for College Freshmen Heading off to college is a big adventure and can cause excitement and stress—along with a host of other emotions—for parents and students alike. You can help your college freshmen be successful in class and in life by talking to them about how important their choices will be. Building healthy habits now can last a lifetime.

GET ENOUGH SLEEP The benefits of getting a good night’s sleep have been well documented. From balancing hormones and regulating blood sugar to helping reduce stress and inflammation, sleep is a vital requirement for a healthy lifestyle. College freshmen should aim for 7–9 hours of sleep each night. To ensure your students get enough sleep, they should strive for a consistent sleep schedule. That means going to bed and waking daily at similar times. Those late nights—whether for studying or partying—will catch up with college freshmen sooner rather than later.

EXERCISE AND STAY ACTIVE At most colleges and universities, students have access to an oncampus gym. Sometimes, the cost is rolled in with tuition, and if it’s not, they’ll pay a nominal fee to use the facilities. This is a great investment in health and wellness—not only while in school but for long after. If your student wasn’t already exercising regularly before heading off to college, this could be a good time to start a routine. They’ll also find physical education classes on the schedule, and even if they’re not looking for credit, the courses can be audited. Curious about how to lift weights without getting hurt? How about enrolling in a weight-lifting course? Student athletes will find staying active at college easier since it’s regulated for them. But all college freshmen can enjoy the many benefits of regular exercise. Encourage your students to walk or bike between classes, even on a large campus. Additionally, most students can enjoy on-campus gym facilities, plenty of outdoor lawns for impromptu yoga, and a visit to the swimming pool for a few laps.

PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR DIET The “freshman 15” is a still a real issue among kids who go off to college. That’s because, perhaps for the first time, 18-year-olds’ diets

are unregulated. Most college freshmen are on the campus meal plan, which affords them access to an unlimited buffet of goodies. Without Mom and Dad there to control portion sizes or avoid keeping certain not-so-good-for-you foods in the house, students often don’t pay attention to how much they’re eating. Heading off to college means choices abound. This is a great time for college freshmen to learn to pay more attention to their bodies. Eat when you’re hungry. Sleep when you’re tired. Just because food is there doesn’t mean it needs to be eaten—even if it is a delicious piece of chocolate cake.

DRINK PLENTY OF WATER Students should get into the habit of always having a water bottle with them. Rushing in between classes often leaves little time for hydration, and without enough water, they can become lightheaded, fatigued, and even have muscle cramps. Just as sleep has numerous benefits, so does drinking adequate water. And for active college freshmen, electrolytes are an added benefit. Students should avoid sugar-laden energy drinks and sports drinks and opt, instead, for sugar-free options. Individual packets of electrolyte can be added to water on the go, making the entire process of staying hydrated much easier.

HAVE A PARTY PLAN College freshmen want to hop into the college scene with both feet, and that means partying. While it’s fine to go to parties, students need to have a plan. Underage drinking aside, kids will be kids. Start conversations now about making smart choices, whether they plan to drink or not. It’s that next choice that makes all the difference. Talk to them about being responsible, because the decisions they make in college—about partying, sleeping, being active, and staying healthy— can last a lifetime.

Fainting Good Fun

Goat yoga provides laughter and relaxation ARTICLE BY ALICIA HOLECE K PHOTOG R APHY BY JANIE JONE S

T R E N D SE T T E R | EN TERTAI NME NT

Here in Kansas City, lots of people talk about Patrick Mahomes being the G.O.A.T. (Greatest Of All Time). And while Chief’s fans will be cheering him on this fall, there are some other goats out in Lee’s Summit that are pretty cool too! Sheila Patten and her family operate Falling Down Ranch, home to about 15 Myotonic goats, a.k.a. fainting goats. In the spring of 2014, Sheila and her daughter Mya started a new adventure. Mya, now 20 years old, says she stumbled upon a lady who had a bathtub full of baby goats at a state fair in Texas and she was hooked. Sheila says, “The goats found a way into our hearts.” They purchased two bucks and three does. Goat Yoga was born two years later as a fundraiser for the Lee’s Summit High School Broadcasting group and has been steadily growing in popularity since then. In the early spring of each year, Sheila turns her garage into a maternity ward and up to 15 baby goats (kids) join the ranch. Sheila only keeps 1-2 kids each year to help grow the herd. Until the baby goats find their forever homes, Sheila loves sharing them with the community through goat yoga. “Everyone needs to experience GOGA! All ages and all levels of fitness are welcomed. GOGA is when humans are attempting yoga poses while baby goats are running around and on top of you. It’s a win-win. Human participants get the health benefits of stretching and breathing, while also benefiting from animal therapy,” explains Sheila. “I believe mental health has a close tie to physical health, something that is important when understanding the impact of goat yoga sessions.” She continues, “Sometimes at GOGA, I just watch and listen... people are laughing and smiling and talking to the goats. I want to bring smiles to people’s faces, and I want them to forget about any issues that they might be facing in the real world. It’s pretty hard to take yourself or life too seriously when there are baby goats involved. It’s a great way to break from your normal mindset and relieve stress.” Falling Down Ranch also offers adult and kid birthday parties, bachelorette parties and goat happy hours in the fall. Sheila will provide the tables, chairs, bales of hay and the goats. Guests can bring their own food and drinks and spend an hour feeding, brushing, and snuggling with the goats. Hugely popular, Sheila says these spots fill quickly and often sell out. Sheila is also considering a new trend: special deliveries called GOAT-A-GRAMS. Great for birthdays, retirements, anniversaries or any special occasion, the goat brings the recipient a gift and an unforgettable memory. A GOAT-A-GRAM can be personalized with add-ons such as flowers, candy, or balloons. As an employee of Lee’s Summit R-7 School District, Sheila is fondly known as “the goat lady.” She has brought the goat kids to local elementary schools as incentives for fundraisers where principals and teachers must “kiss the goat,” as part of 6th grade clubs and to summer school sessions. “The students are so interested in the goats. I let everyone pet and hug them before returning to their classrooms.” CONTINUED > AUGUST 2 0 2 2 | C I TYL I FE STYL E . C OM/L E E S S UM M I T

Sheila acknowledges that while raising goats is work, she looks at it more as a hobby than a chore. The goats are family pets to the Pattens. Sheila says there are so many parallels between goats and dogs: the goats know their names, can be housebroken, wag their tails out of contentment, and are very social. Despite its name, Falling Down Ranch is really about building people up and helping them feel good. To learn more about Falling Down Ranch and their goat experiences, please follow them on Facebook.

FAINTING GOAT FACTS

• They get their name from a genetic condition called myotonia congenita, which causes their muscles to briefly stiffen after they are startled. • Female goats are pregnant for 5 months and almost always give birth to twins or triplets. • Kids (baby goats) can begin “fainting” at 2-3 weeks. • Adult goats will learn not to fall when startled and instead walk or run with stiff legs. • Goats have horizontal eyes which allow them to see in several directions at once. • Each goat has its own unique voice (bleat). • They are herd animals and must have companions or they will become depressed/mean. • It is a myth that goats eat everything, though they do explore with their mouths. • Fainting goats can be registered as therapy animals. • Goats are clean animals and avoid rain and mud. • Goats are smart and can be housebroken. • Fainting goats originated in Tennessee and are an endangered breed.

Lake L iving

LAKE WINNEBAGO OFFERS OPPORTUNITIES TO LI VE, WORK AND PLAY

ARTICLE BY CITY LIFESTYLE STAFF | PHOTOGRAPHY BY JANIE JONES

M UST SE E | FITN ESS

With more than 400 acres of lake and a shoreline that continues to develop as new phases are built and community amenities are added, Lee’s Summit’s Lake Winnebago is a water paradise for kids and adults of all ages. According to agent Renee Amey, whether you’re wanting to fish, find a group to learn crafting, relax on the boat with friends or get in a kayak workout after a long day, there’s a way for everyone in the family to find a way to unwind and connect at Lake Winnebago. Established in the 1960s, Lake Winnebago’s rich history has provided a firm foundation that will support the growing and thriving lake community, as it has added approximately 145 acres of water and continues to see new homeowners flock to the area. With its own City Hall, police and fire presence and governance structure, Winnebago seeks to comprehensively serve its residents’ needs. There’s a little something for everyone, including Safety Days focused on family friendly, educational offerings, shopping events, turtle races, barbeque competitions and garden clubs. As the south side of the lake has been developed, almost three hundred new lots with homes have been recently finished or are under construction, and the burgeoning community continues its forward focus. A five-acre amenity area is planned, which will include a resort-style zero entry pool and community building. Additionally, a boat ramp with security gate and parking

are available for residents, along with two miles of paved walking trails. The Arrowhead Yacht Club, also known as the Lake Winnebago Yacht Club, is available for weddings and special events, as well as offering outdoor entertainment and dining options for residents. Whether you’re jumping waves on the jet ski, getting pulled on the tube, or trying your luck wakeboarding, soaring across Lake Winnebago will bring out your inner child and have you feeling right at home, so if you’re on the hunt for a new community to call home, check out lakewinnebago.org or contact Renee Amey with the ReMax team to learn more about this growing lake area.

“Living at Lake Winnebago has been SUCH A BLESSING FOR OUR FAMILY. The lake and teaching our kids to swim and ski has brought us years of memories, and the friends we’ve made will last a lifetime. I WOULDN’T TRADE IT FOR ANYTHING,” said a local resident.

Healing Through Horsemanship

SIMPLY EQUINE ASSISTED THERAPY HELPS YOUTH AND ADULTS ALIKE ARTICLE BY JUDY GOPPERT

PHOTOGRAPHY BY JANIE JONES

Horses are intuitive. Horses have superpower. Interaction with them releases serotonin in the human brain, and when that horse/human interaction occurs it’s great for depression, anxiety, and a host of other maladies. “Horses automatically know what’s going on. They feel what you feel and often know what’s going on with you before you know!” Lisa Jegen, founder and owner of Simply Equine Assisted Therapy, says. “I can tell my clients what the horse is telling me through body language, and their verbal signs.”

Jegen began her therapy equine program in 2001, when she opened on the campus of Seasons Care Center at 15600 Woods Chapel Road. She was approached by Kenny Blom, who had started the Alzheimer’s and dementia unit there. “He knew I was a fifth-generation equestrian and asked me what I thought of using some of the land to see if horses could benefit the residents,” she says. “I researched and discovered that equine assisted psychotherapy could definitely help them!

M EN TA L WE LLB E IN G | H E ALTH + W E LLNE S S

“I am a product of equine psychotherapy and know firsthand how horses can benefit mental health. I am now a certified equine specialist, and we began the program.”

The program worked so well that they decided to open it to everyone, not just exclusively Seasons Care residents. They are now a 501c3 nonprofit organization and currently have a capital campaign to make improvements on the property. They turn away no one. This is a strictly mental health program, and Jegen works with children from all different walks of life who have autism, are in the foster system or have been taken away from their parents and put in a different environment. The children are referred to her by therapists, teachers, pastors, coaches, next door neighbors, family members and caregivers.

“I offer these children a safe environment that takes them out of their element they are used to and to be honest, a lot of these kids are living in homes they have no control over,” she continues. “I put them into an environment with nature, horses and instructors of life skills. Those instructors of life skills have been exactly where our client is now. They are only a couple steps ahead of them. The reason all our instructors need to come from that background is because we want them to empathize with the client. I want them to know those feelings and experience those feelings so they can validate. It’s important for people’s feelings to be validated.” She teaches kids and adults the equine way, where every day of your life you have self-confidence, self-worth with a bit of self-deprecation without giving up any self-respect. They are now on their second generation, and parents she worked with are now bringing their own children to her. Jegen says that’s the best part of her job, knowing she did some good and the children grew up to be healthy adults. She offers programs for adults suffering from PTSD, ADHD, abuse, depression, anxiety and more. One such event is the spa days she puts on. People get a garden hose, wet down the horses and wash their tails and manes with products such as Nexxus and Paul Mitchell, donated by one of their members. They braid the horses’ mains and even paint their hooves. Horses and humans love this on hot summer days! The Horse Hook-Up program is for people who are already horse people. They can grab a horse and spend time with them. They come for stress relief, self-reflection, decision making assistance, exercise, health care and fun.

“We want to spread the word here that horses help people. We are here for people to enjoy horses, even if that means coming up to the fence to pet our horses. That five minutes might give you incentive to finish the rest of your day with a positive attitude,” she smiles.

M EN TA L WE LLB E IN G | H E ALTH + W E LLNE S S

“Horses bring clarity,” says Jegen. Jegen is from the Kansas City area, and her father was a horse trainer. She was on a horse at six months old, riding by herself by the age of two, showing horses at age six and training them at age eight. “I think what makes our program unique is that it is specialized. Horses are intuitive and so am I. All I want to do is make sure every person in my community who wants to listen, can understand the power horses can have in a human’s life. How they change your perception and way of thinking, take all the negativity away and bring in positiveness so you can have a healthy life,” she says. They have 11 acres, five of which are used for equestrian programs. She likes to take people to ride at other locations, such as Monkey Mountain, Blue and Gray Park and James A. Reed wildlife center. Currently they have six horses, with more on the way.

One example of success Jegen shared involved a nineyear-old boy: When he was three, he was on our racehorse we had. He had no respect for anybody when his mom brought him to me. This horse changed him, and he turned into a fine young man and doesn’t get kicked out of school anymore! He learned that disrespecting, confusing, hurting a horse or being angry and yelling at them, means you’re going to get a response just like you will from a human. When it comes from a horse you tend to listen! Visit 4simplyequine.com for more information.

And what would the Laguna Beach culture be without all of the seaside activities? Kayaking, snorkeling and diving, whale and dolphin watching, SUP—you name it, you can experience it. Laguna Beach is seven miles of coves and beaches uniquely its own with breathtaking cliffs and recreational canyons and a hippy-loving-self-expression-embracing artist colony that you won’t want to miss in this lifetime.
