Botox Injections: A Closer Look
By: Joe Regan
Just about everyone has, at one time or another, heard about Botox Injections. Botox is the most popular non-invasive procedure on the market today because the Benefits of Botox are great with little risk involved. Botox blocks your nerve impulses, temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles. This will give your skin a smoother, more rejuvenated appearance. That is all and well, but what are the draw backs to Botox? The only drawbacks are almost non existent when weighed with the obvious benefit of reducing the appearance of age defining wrinkles. Your Botox injection may take 15 years worth of wrinkles off your neck or face, but regrettably, it will certainly not last forever. You will have to receive further injections on a fairly regular basis. Around every four months you will need to go back in and get a refresher injection. Some people choose to turn this into an advantage by converting the cosmetic procedure into a social event called a Botox party. A Botox party is in essence, a group of people sharing the Botox experience with one another usually for company over the simple joy of finger food in a catered lobby of a lucky doctor. Sharing your exsperiance may help to ease some of the fear involved with trying something new. You are also able to see live Before and After demonstrations. If after all of this you still are not pleased with your youthful new appearance, then you are in luck because the drawback is also your advantage. You will not have a terribly long wait for the effects to wear off. Botox is very safe when administered by a competent professional in a medical setting. Botox injections are for good reason the fastest-growing cosmetic procedure in the industry, according to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS). In 2001, more than 1.6 million people received injections, an increase of 46 percent over the previous year. Botox has been FDA approved since April 2002 and was found to officially reduce the severity of frown lines for up to 120 days.

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.
