How Botox and Allergy Avoidance Could Relieve Rosacea or Migraines

As far as modern medicine has come, there are still certain conditions that continue to puzzle us. Experts may not always know what causes or exacerbates these conditions, which can be incredibly frustrating to those who have been diagnosed with them. Two such conditions are migraine headaches and rosacea. They are certainly quite different in their scope, as one causes debilitating pain and affects roughly 38 million Americans while the other is characterized by facial redness and impacts approximately 14 million people in the United States. But they do share a certain amount of mystery. They also may be treated through the same unconventional means -- and could be triggered by some of the same things. According to the Mayo Clinic, experts aren't exactly sure what causes rosacea, … [Read more...]

Cruisin’ in Style

Next weekend I set sail on my first cruise. I'll be visiting the Bahamas and Haiti with one of my dear friends and fellow Beachbody coach. She earned this trip last year through all her hard work and kick ass coaching and is taking me along with her! I'm so excited to escape the final chill of winter and be bathed in warm Caribbean sun for a whole week. We have a few theme nights like 90s night (I feel ancient now...) and a White party plus time spent in Nassau soaking up the sun and some time with dolphins as well as a safari snorkeling adventure in Haiti, I was really hoping for a small shark encounter, but I guess I'll have to wait for our next trip. After the last few months of winter and some hard times emotionally within my home, I think this is a definite need and … [Read more...]

4 Tips to Help Your Tires Last Longer

Though we regular consumers may not think about it often, the transportation industry is a huge part of what drives our economy. Without the millions of vehicles on the road or working the land, the food we eat and clothes we wear would never make it to our homes. Thanks to three million U.S. farmers, our produce keeps growing. Thanks to the 500,000 reefer trailers in the country, all of that produce stays cool and fresh on its journey to the supermarket. Clearly, we rely on vehicles. When something goes wrong with our own car, our entire week can be disrupted. One all-too-common vehicular malfunction is tire complications. From blowouts to slow leaks, when something goes wrong with your tire, your entire car can be rendered useless until it's fixed. Whether you work in the … [Read more...]

How To Stick To Your Fitness Goals

Getting in shape for anyone can be incredibly difficult, but especially so for busy parents. Between caring for children, going to work, managing things around the house, and more, it can be difficult to find the time to get into shape the way you might want to.

The Three S’s- Do you do them?

I have been talking about the Three S's over at my FB group, Stronger Than Yesterday. Silence, Solitude, and Stillness. Do you have a solitude or silence trigger? I know I do. I find that my illness has made me reclaim the 'Three S's' in my life. I thought I could do without them and I would often find myself crying in silence, feeling overwhelmed and intensely exhausted. When I became sick last winter my days were reduced to silence. Not only was my hearing going, with some days one ear would just completely lose its hearing, but I could no longer multi-task or get up off the couch. Intense pain seeped into my bones. I found yoga helped reduce the pain and offered five minutes of silence and stillness at the end of each session. It was a saving grace. Some days my vision … [Read more...]
