Have a SPRING FLING!

After a cold winter and wet spring, aren’t you ready for a new spring look? 

Think Easter, the shades used for coloring Easter Eggs or decorating.  

Whether or not you celebrate Easter, here is a sampling from our Motives® by Loren Ridinger cosmetics of lovely spring colors.  

I do love the pink nail color below, but, if you like brighter color for your nails and lips; why not choose

For Your Heart and More Leading Anti Aging Drs. Recommend Omega III

On Saturday our church ladies had a presentation by The Long Island chapter of Women Heart.  (http://womensheart.org/) This presentation told me much of what I knew, but more importantly, was a strong reminder of what I need to DO.  One of the women presenting to us had a heart attack at 59, with her only symptom being fatigue and a little indigestion (something that we all experience at times).   I have concluded things do need to be changed in our lives.  Some of the foods we eat need to be eliminated and regular exercise increased.  These are not things we haven't done before, so, I know we can do it again; it just needs to become a permanent part of our lives.

One day after this talk, my husband said "You know, you really should take Omega 3 every day."    He showed me an article, with facts about its affect on cardiovascular health, like this statement from Don Colbert, MD "Omega 3 improves circulation. Helps lower triglyceride levels. Protects your heart. Improves joint movement and promotes brain Health" I do know this, but, I tend to forget taking my pills. I love to drink my vitamins, but, not so with swallowing pills. Then just to reinforce and motivate me a bit more,  I researched and found an article by the Mayo Clinic~~the top five foods for lowering cholesterol  listed as #2~~you got it! Fish. Not ones like the common mass farmed Tilapia; the ones best for Omega 3 like lake trout, Salmon, halibut...(http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/cholesterol/CL00002). I know this; I teach it; I also know that it can help with weight management and joints and so many other things....

picking this topic up five days later....

My knees had been bothering me going upstairs. Two days after taking my Omega three daily...I noticed going upstairs I wasn't feeling the pain. Coincidence? I think not; the day I did not take....pain back. So this week we had fish 4 times, I took my Omega, and took better care of my heart and the heart of my husband. ❤ 

I just want to add this, Market America's Heart Health™ Essential Omega III with vitamin E is a superior product for a number of reasons. Most comercial products contain only a third of the actual fish oils this product contains. It 's fish oil only comes from the small fish, which will not contain the amount of toxins as large fish.  You can read about the uniqueness of the product by clicking here: 

Heart Health Essential Omega Iii Fish Oil With Vitamin E - Single Bottle (30 Servings)

So, this week we have increased our exercise, eaten more fish, I have been diligent about taking my Omega 3.  It has been a good week.  

LEMON AID!

So good for you!

Looking to have a fresh start to spring? Yes it is on its way...Get a fresh start! Does drinking lemon water daily sound exciting to you? I did not think it would, but there are amazing benefits to this little citrus fruit squeezed into water. Besides being Vitamin C rich, it also contains vitamin B, has calcium, riboflavin, magnesium, just to name a few nutrients.

Too much cozying up next to the fire with hot chocolate and cookies this winter could be cause for your spring wardrobe fitting little snug. Adding lemon water daily can assist you in any weight loss program. It paves the road to quicker weight loss; it will help your body to eliminate toxins, cleanse and even help with some of your aches and pains because it is a diuretic. A great way to start your morning would be to take hot water (I use my biggest water glass) and squeeze half a lemon into it, before you have caffeine. If you cannot contemplate plain water and lemon, add a bit of agave nectar or honey. If you start out with a smaller piece of lemon, your taste buds will grow to accept it without sweetener, so I would recommend just try it that way. When I was on a veggie detox, starting my day with this, on about the fourth or fifth day it actually tasted sweet. I read a recommendation to actually do this twice a day; I may try that because there are so many other benefits to doing so.

It will help your complexion, keep you regular, aid in digestion, its antibacterial properties can help with sore throats and respiratory issues (I actually wipe down my wood cutting board with it rather than soap--then lightly rub in Mineral Oil~that is an extraJ), helps lower blood pressure and relax the mind (stress reduction), and, the pectin can also assist in cholesterol lowering. There are too many benefits as far as I can see to not incorporate this into daily intake. Why, it sounds like sitting down and relaxing with a nice cup of tea as my grandmother used to enjoyJ, not discounting the benefits of green tea here of course, but her tea consisted of lots of sugar and milk taking the benefits away other than it was her method to relax.

So, get your system ready for the freshness of spring. Start your day cleansing and purifying; add to that an exercise routine, healthy eating, and, you will be off on the right foot. When you bring out your spring wardrobe, it will still fit; as an added benefit you just might also have glowing skin to match it. Did I mention anti-aging as well? TimelessBeauty4U!

Set the Mood this Valentines Day

Valentines day is next week.  Are you ready?  Last year in lieu of going out to a restaurant, I decided I wanted to prepare a special meal at home.  It was beautiful, we were alone and not in a room full of strangers, I controlled our food quantity and seasonings.  I saw this on my husband's calendar several weeks ago "dinner with Cindy", so I am now thinking about what to do.  If he is planning something, I would not want to rob him of his blessing.  I may do my meal on Sunday, but we do go out often.  We actually just got home from a week in the sun with a couple of special dinners out.  When ever I do make our special meal, my menu has not been decided; but I do know I will be making Red Velvet cup cakes 

(especially since I found silicone heart shaped cup cake molds).  

The following link is a blog with a very interesting recipe~~ http://bestcupcakerecipes.blogspot.com/2009/02/red-velvet-cupcake-recipe.html.  

Had I not found the heart molds I think I would be making Red Velvet Whoopie Pies (I'll try it some other time) http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/cousin-jonnies-red-velvet-whoopee-pies-recipe/index.html.  Well, enough about me and what I will make, this is for you.

We all want to set the mood for romance, don't we.  We will fix our hair to our best ability, put on our 

make-up, his favorite dress or outfit, light a scented candle (by the way...if you are preparing a scrumptious meal and filling the house with great aroma of cooking, you don't want to compete with it), set the table with your good china.  It doesn't have to be a complicated meal.  A simple Shrimp Scampi (look on line for recipes~~you should be able find a simple one), some grilled or roasted asparagus topped with some slivered almonds, salad of cut up avocado, tomato (about equal parts), a little arugula, thinly sliced red onion or shallots on top, and a simple balsamic vinaigrette. Just make it something out of the ordinary and it will be special.  I almost always google recipes, read several and come up with my own ideas from what I see.

Now, if you are in the season of life with young kids at home, you may need to be creative for a solution for a romantic evening alone.  How about trading kids with a friend on Saturday and Sunday night; you will each have one quiet night alone.  When the kids are over, opt for chicken nuggets and pasta salad with broccoli and bow-ties or mac and cheese.  With a little bit of advanced planning, you can set the mood for a quiet romantic evening at home, whether it be on Valentines Day or any other day.  You have all that is needed for a timelessly beautiful evening.  Make the magic happen.  Have a truly beautiful celebration of your love.

 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is (springs) from God; 

and he who loves [his fellowmen] is begotten (born) 

of God and is coming [progressively] to know and understand God [to perceive and recognize and get a better and clearer knowledge of Him]. 

1 John 4: 7 Amplified Version

Time for a cleanse?

With all of the holiday goodies I am sure as I, many of you are feeling this would be a good time to clean out, both your cabinets (my left over cookies have found their way into the freezer) and your system.  This morning I realized that I was hungry for lunch too soon...a sign that I have been enjoying too many holiday treats (which included several brunches of way too much breakfast food, not the type I am used to).  Over the holiday period most Americans tend to gain weight, a fact that many just seem to shrug off.

If you have ever lost any considerable amount of weight, you don't really need the scale to tell you to when to watch out; your clothes will inform you that it is time.  So, now my days are looking like I will be refilling my herbal tea cups often (that way I am sure to get extra water...I am loving Yogi Peach Detox Tea...today it is Chrysanthemum Tea which has choline and that aids in fat metabolism); the teas help to calm because they have no caffiine. There have also been a lot of soups and salads served at my home lately.  I will eat better and drink lots of clear fluid to help my system cleanse from the abuse I gave it the last few months.

 Consider your body, it is the temple of God; consider what you are putting into it.  Even if you eat only fresh (if you are fortunate enough to find them) raw fruits and veggies, there would still the air you breathe to consider.  I like to cleanse myself a couple of times a year; this is one time I am just getting ready to do it.  Just think about all that you do clean on a regular basis, such as hair, skin, teeth... so, why not cleanse the inside of our bodies.  More than half of our immune cells are located within our digestive tracts; that would be where our ability to fight off colds and flu begins.  Generally, our bodies were not designed to handle the toxins of today, either in what we eat, what we breath, or even what is absorbed through our largest organ, our skin.  Clearing out the toxins inside is a good thing to do; this is a good way to start off our new year to give our goals a jump and a head start.

We should do it through our food choices and we can assist it in other ways.  Nutriclean®  7 Day Cleansing and Detoxification System is a great way to promote good digestive health and cleanse out your system.  To complement that we also carry Ultimate Aloe® juice with added nutrients and enzymes for your health.

You know that you will be more beautiful when you start from the inside out.  You will feel better, sleep better, have more energy, it is all good!
