[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Welcome to This Day in Barrington History” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]Good morning and welcome to March 14 and Day 73 of 365 in Barrington, Illinois! You’ll find our stories of the day – past, present & future (events) – right here on today’s DailyPage. Because every day has its own rhythm, we’re sharing a song of the day here at 365Barrington.com.
On this day in 1998, “Getting Jiggy Wit It” started a three week
Our song for today is American actor and rapper, Will Smith’s “Getting Jiggy Wit It“. The song spent three weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart from March 14, 1998. It also won a Grammy Award in 1999 for the Best Rap Solo Performance.
The song samples the 1979 Sister Sledge song “He’s the Greatest Dancer“. The “mama-uh, mama-uh, mama come closer” line is a reference to the song “Soul Makossa” by Manu Dibango, specifically the version adapted by Michael Jackson in “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’“‘s final bridge.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Song of the Day” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]
The connotations associated with the expression getting jiggy are open to interpretation. 😉 The term was originally a description of sexy fashion or style, but expanded to include dancing skill. Whatever the genre, with St. Patrick’s Day coming up this week, it’s a good time to be getting jiggy!

It’s going to be hot weekend. Perfect for a water balloon fight. But don’t waste your money or time on latex water balloons. Reusable water balloons are what you need.
Grab a bucket of water and add your balloons. They automatically fill close with magnets.
Fill - Throw- Repeat
Fun and Good for the environment. Win-win.

Writing for just 5-10 minutes a day for three consecutive days can significantly boost your mental health. This simple practice, known as expressive writing, helps reduce stress and improves emotional well-being by allowing you to process your thoughts and feelings. Studies have shown that such short-term writing interventions can lead to better mood, reduced anxiety, and even improved physical health by enhancing immune function. Make it a habit to write regularly and see the positive impact it has on your mental clarity and overall health.

Taking a 5-10 minute walk daily can significantly boost your mental health. This simple activity helps reduce stress, improve mood, and increase overall emotional well-being. Walking, especially in nature, promotes relaxation and positive mental states by lowering anxiety levels and encouraging a sense of calm. Even a brief stroll can make a difference, so step outside and take advantage of the mental health benefits that a daily walk can offer.

If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you’ll find an excuse. 💥
Coach Kelly broke her foot about a month ago.
This girl has not missed a single workout.
She comes in, modifies as needed and still gets a great workout.
Today she told me how much fun she is having in her training and looks at it as an opportunity to help further our knowledge on helping athletes modify workouts.
Find a way through instead of setting yourself back.
Thank you for being a great example Coach Kelly!

Research also shows that close relationships help buffer the effects of stress on the body and the brain. When an adult is holding their romantic partner’s hand, they have a lower stress response in their brains when anticipating an unpleasant electric shock. The happier the couples said they were in their relationships, the more the partner’s hand lessened the brain’s response to the shock. Having a best friend seems to do the same thing, starting in adolescence. For example, one study found that according to 11- and 12-year-old children’s reports of their negative experiences, stress responses were lower during an unpleasant event when their best friends were present.
