Why Water?


9 Powerful Reasons to More Drink Water:
Water makes up more than half of our body weight and we need to drink a lot of water to allow the body to function properly.  It is suggested... to determine how much water one should drink, divide your body weight in half and convert the remaining number in ounces. Whatever that number is,  is how much water you should be drinking a day.  Check out some important reasons why:




     1.   Energy
Dehydration can lead to fatigueness, muscle weakness, and dizziness. Drinking more water will increase your energy!

2. Weight loss
Water is one of the best tools for weight loss.  Water has no fat, no calories, no carbs, no sugar. It replaces high-calorie drinks like soda and juice.  Drink plenty of water to help your weight-loss regimen.


                                                       


3. Healthy Heart
Drinking a good amount of water could lower your risks of a heart attack.
4. Headache cure
Drinking water reduces headaches. Another symptom of dehydration is headaches. Sometimes headaches are a result of drinking a lack of water.

5.  Healthy skin
Skin is the largest cell in the body and research shows that  drinking water can clear up blemishes and acne.  Also once the skin is properly hydrated, there is a nautural healthy glow that refelects from the skin.


6.  Age Defying
More water contributes to stronger elasticity of the skin and collagen production

Water is used by the body to help flush out toxins and waste products from the body.

Spring 2012 Hair Trends!

     Spring is here and the hottest hair styles are trending now! Warmer weather calls for shorter hair. Bob cuts, sleek bangs, voluminous curls, and retro hairstyles seem to be the look this Spring. After long winter locks, I just had 4 inches cut from my hair last week and it feels new, fresh, and fun! How daring will you be this Spring?

Enjoy your Spring do!

New Year / New Beginning 2012


Happy New Year Everyone!

     Once again we are on top of a New Year...time to create new beginnings and start fresh. Being in the beginning of a new year is a good time to regroup, analyze, and evaluate what has been working for you and what has not been. Start fresh by setting a clear vision for your new plans or existing, create
strategic methods to incorporate them into your plans, and most of all stay FOCUSED to execute and accomplish. Whatever your goals are, allow yourself to blossom and you will create your path to your goals in doing so.  Make every moment of your life and existence count and become the best possible version of you!

Have a Fabulous Year Everyone!
2012 Here we come... :)
