Ah the Spa

Now I know what you’re thinking; "who's got time? The money?" I agree 100 percent with what you said. Spas are expensive and they take time out of your day. However ask yourself this; when was the last time you did anything for yourself? When was the last time you treated the biggest organ of your body, your skin? Your body needs self-care in order to work as hard as you push it. Personally I don't treat my body as good as I should. I've been a camp counselor at my church for the whole month of July so I've been on my feet for very long periods of time. My mother who had a vacation week coming up also stands on her feet for long periods of time at her job, decided we needed a treat yo'self-day. We went to a spa and got our feet done and let me tell you I could not look at the nail salon lady because there was all kind of junk in crevasses that should never see the day of light! After words we felt our skin glow, and 10 years younger. That's when it hit me. Why don't I take care of myself more? Not necessarily going to the Spa once a week because that is a luxury I can't afford, but I can't remember the last time I thoroughly cleaned my skin or even just put on sun block when I'm in the sun most of the day? There are so many ways in which we can love ourselves that isn't just about eating "right.ā€ Spend those 10 minutes in your morning routine to scrub that skin. Invest in good skin product that works for you, not just because it worked on that model in that one commercial you saw that kinda looked like you!

I would out one up for food, Although that is a larger topic to discuss and would take up another article's full worth. I am also not a Nutritionist and everyone has their own dietary needs/restrictions. It is best to listen to your doctor what your body needs food wise.

Remember, you are #1 priority. how can you be the best person you can be if you don't treat yourself as such?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
