Beauty Tips: 10 Steps for Radiant Skin
By: Sheila Dicks
When it comes to a glowing complexion what we put into our bodies and how we treat our skin and ourselves has a huge impact on how we look – no skin care product can overcome certain damage. Here are a few hints to take the best care of your skin and get that radiant glow. 1. Eat a balanced diet – what we put in our bodies will showon our skin. If you eat fatty foods and junk your skin will reflect that, so give your skin proper nutrition. 2. Get at least 7 to 8 hours sleep every night. A lack of sleep will show up under your eyes as dark circles or bags. Proper rest will also benefit your body and your life. 3. Drink 6 to 8 glasses of water a day to keep your skin hydrated. It is best to spread the consumption of water in small amounts over the course of the day to be sure it is properly absorbed. 4. Maintain a regular exercise schedule. Exercise gets the blood moving and creates a healthy body. 5. Get lots of fresh air but avoid prolonged exposure to wind and cold. 6. Avoid the sun and tanning beds. The damage done byultraviolet rays is long lasting and cannot be reversed. 7. Always wear sunglasses to avoid squinting. 8. Try to achieve a well-balanced life and reduce stress. 9. Exfoliate twice a week to rid your skin of dead cells. 10. Develop a skin care routine for your particular skn type. If you have been neglecting your complexion start right away toimprove it – it’s never too late. What you do today will show up in your skin in the future. It’s up to you.

How to Benefit from the Mind-Body Connection
(excerpt)
You are about to gain insight into the
mind-body connection. The number of
people who truly understand these principles on our
planet are relatively few.
There is an undeniable connection between our minds and
bodies, you can learn
to use this fact to your benefit.
Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of "Love, Medicine and
Miracles" was once a
distraught cancer surgeon until he
began to understand the greater principles
of the mind-
body connection. He felt dragged down by the artificial
barriers
that existed between patient and doctor, and the
helplessness he often felt as
a result of his inability
to effectively serve those patients. Eventually, those
barriers
were disintegrated by Dr. Siegel's recognition
and growing understanding of the
mind-body connection and
how it could serve his patients and himself.
Dr. Siegel, or Bernie as he began to have his patients
refer to him, had some
startling realizations as a cancer surgeon. He found that
there were actually
quite a few people in the world that successfully beat
the statistics on cancer
survival. He began to recognize that a patient's ability
to defeat something as
serious as cancer had to do with the patient's mind and
attitude about their
disease.
