Bio Sculpture Gel Nails
I have been having my nails done for about 5 years on the Gold Coast and Kirsty (my nail technician of the last two and a bit years), used to work at Touched By An Angel in Southport and is now working independently.
She specialises in Bio Sculpture Gel nails which is much kinder to your [...]
Lack of sun exposure
Summer has arrived with a vengeance and there has been so much hype to do with over exposure to the sun that many people have been scared to venture into the sun for long periods, and many do not go out in the sun at all.
Using such scare monger tactics has actually been damaging our [...]
Looking after your spine
Although I did a lot of walking in my teens and early twenties, and for the most part enjoyed it except on those few occasions when it was very hot or very wet (the latter was easier to deal with). Or thinking back to my High School days when I had a lot of books [...]
Sun spots on the skin
Earlier this year in January, I noticed a flaky brown spot on my nose which I did not like the look of at all. This little spot had flaky skin for some of the time and then the “flakiness” disappeared for a few days which I thought was peculiar. Especially in lieu of having grown [...]
PACE Program
I received the following information in subscription newsletters from Dr. Al Sears and have collated some of his material for your reference. You can check out his website here for even more detail about his PACE program.
His theory is logical and makes perfect sense as his, and other studies, have clearly shown. As from today, [...]
Different spin on exercise
Exercise is a necessary part of life in order to stay fit and healthy and I have done a great deal of walking in my childhood through to early adulthood because I had no choice. There were no local public or private buses close to home and I had to walk 3 kms one way [...]
Toxic insect repellent
We are moving into spring which brings warmer weather and that means mosquitoes and flies. Are you driven to insanity by pesty flies and mozzies which seem to zone in on you and no one else?
Do you resort to covering yourself with insect repellant to protect yourself? Do you know what is in that inset [...]
The Flaws of Modern Medicine
Although medicine has every good intention to help and heal maladies, it is not adverse to flaws and often these can have dire and serious consequences if not monitored correctly or given in haphazard fashion.
Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors, known as SSRI for short, are often used in the treatment of depression and other psychiatric disorders. [...]
Don’t Inject Me With The Swine Flu Vaccine
An extremely worrying topic and not for the reason you may imagine. A song has now been put together by Mike Adams to warn of the dangers of this vaccine.
Mike Adams chose hip-hop as the vehicle for reaching out to his younger audience as they are more likely to relate to this music genre. Obviously [...]
Juice for your health!
Over the last 4 years my hubby and I made a conscious decision to buy as much of our food in organic form as possible. Health wise we also seek out more natural methods of healing over use of prescription drugs.
I have known that many vegetables have extraordinary medicinal properties and are especially good for [...]
Gaining health through stealth
This could not be more black and white and I am going to be blunt: we live and then we die!
Some of us will live for a long time and others not so long. How do we ensure a healthy long life? Exercise is something we mean to do and never get around to it. [...]
Taking life for granted
There is nothing like reading about someone else’s close shave with death as I sit here on a beautiful mild, sunny Sunday morning on the Gold Coast, drinking my Earl Grey tea. I was browsing the UK Daily Mail online and came across an article which made me realise how often many of us (and [...]
The painful truth about trainers
I have had my trainers for some time and use them mainly for walking and for my skipping regime. They were designed by an orthopedic practitioner and were not cheap, but were less expensive than the fancier trainers.
Funnily enough, I was just thinking about what I would replace my shoes with once they wear out. [...]
My PACE progress
My PACE DVD finally arrived as did the leather skipping rope I bought on Ebay. Now it is time to not only get into this program regularly myself, I have also drafted my husband into it.
We have been doing our skipping most days this last week and it certainly pushes the limit of your lung [...]
Fragrance Directory of Perfume
Perfume is such an individual and emotional expression of our personality and I very much doubt that there would ever be one perfume that would appeal to all users. Like a ‘one size fits all’ theme as there is in clothing. There is often little logic involved in purchasing, let alone choosing, a fragrance.
Generally speaking, [...]
