This routine consists of a thorough cleansing, even if you are not wearing make-up, massage, face mask uk
, and then a face pack. Pull your hair back from your face and cover it with a scarf. Either cover your clothes with a smoke or towel or wear a dressing gown. Start by thoroughly cleansing, face mask uk
, your face. If you are removing make-up before you start your facial, it is a good idea to cleanse twice.
Make sure that all the cleanser is removed with tissue especially in the creases at the sides of the nose and centre of the chin. After you have tissued off the cleanser go over your face again with a little cotton wool squeezed in cold water.
The next step is to massage your face. Make sure your hands are clean before you start, face mask uk
, the massage, otherwise your cleansing will be in vain. The purpose of the massage is to relax the facial muscles and stimulate the circulation. During a massage routine, blood circulation accelerates the deposits of lactic acid and get washed out of the muscles. When you give yourself a massage you should spend about five to ten minutes on it to get maxiญmum relaxation.
Begin the massage by placing the pads of both thumbs firmly between the eye-brows. Using firm and even pressure slide them slowly down either side of the nose moving out from its base over the cheeks to the jaw bone. This will empty the facial vein and prepare for the stimulus of massage. Now dab a soothing cream on your skin and rub it evenly over the face. Starting at the base of the throat work upward, using the backs of the hands, to the point of the chin. The sides and the back of the neck should be massaged with the fingertips using upward circular movements. When a movement is finished return to the starting point.

, movements out as far as the cheekbones. Working from the centre of, face mask uk
, the upper lip, use circular movements out towards the centre of the cheeks.
Care must be taken not to stretch the skin when you give yourself a massage.
The skin under the eyes should be gently patted with. fingertips, and not massaged. Begin from the nose working. under the eyebrows with the fingertips using tiny circular movements, around the eyes to the underneath, then pat the skin very gently working towards the nose. The foreญ head should be lightly stroked with the fingertips in all upward direction. Then, working from in-between the brows, employ small circular movements out, and over, the eyebrows. To complete the massage, using the second and third fingers, pat over the face lightly (except the eye area. but on the cheeks and under the chin), face mask uk
, . This is. excellent for muscles which tend to sag. After about ten minutes wipe off any surplus cream with a paper tissue.
The last step is to apply a face pack. To make a face pack yourself mix about one tablespoon of Fuller's earth with a skin tonic or an astringent. It should be a tacky paste. You could use lemon juice instead of a tonic or astringent. This has a bleaching effect and is good for sallow skins. For a sensitive skin, mix, face mask uk
, the Fuller's, face mask uk
, earth with milk.
The purpose of applying a face pack is to draw out impurities to close the pores and remove any rough scaly surface on the skin and tighten the facial muscles. Using the pads of your fingertips spread the pack gently over the face. Use the palms of your hands, face mask uk
, to spread the pack over your neck. Do not apply the pack on thread veins if you have them. Relaxation plays an important part in the home facial routine. Settle yourself on a comfortable armchair or even better, lie on your bed. If you lie on bed, put some pillows under your legs to raise them slightly. This helps in relaxation. When you are using a face pack it is better to cover your eyes with cotton wool pads squeezed out in cold water pr preferably rose water. Alternatively, cotton wool pads dipped in a solution for bathing the eyes is also very soothing.
If you have an oily skin, leave the mask on for about ten minutes. For dry and combination skins, leave the mask on for about five minutes. Set an alarm clock so that you can really relax. If your skin feels tight and unญcomfortable, do not wait for the recommended time, and remove the pack immediately. Remove the mask with warm water and cotton wool. Lightly swab off the face pack, taking care not to drag the skin. After that dab on "Some skin tonic if you have combination or dry skin and astringent if your skin is oily. If your skin is very dry, use a, face mask uk
, little moisturizer. Do not apply make-up immediaญtely after your facial as your skin may go blotchy.

The Tiger & the Tiger Within: Roy Horn and Montecore
Author: Susan Dunn, MA Clinical Psychology, cEQc, The EQ Coach™
Source: articleage.com
Roy Horn and Siegfried Fishbacher have performed around 5,700
shows since they began at the Mirage in Las Vegas over ten years
ago. The signature, mirage, of their magic show has been their, mirage, white
tigers and lions.
Six, mirage, shows, mirage, a week, 44 weeks a year they worked with their big
cats on stage, and not once has there been an incident.
In fact, according to reports, Montecore nipped at Roy's arm
earlier in the show before carrying him off stage and seriously
injuring him, without leaving any bite marks.
Which is more than I can say about Baby Kittee here at my own
house. I know all about Baby Kittee. She is, to quote William
Blake, "red in tooth and claw." As I vacuum around the house, I
find wings, scales, tails, mirage, and other, mirage, remnants of her nature. Her
name was chosen by my granddaughter. It might as well have been
"Fluffy Killer." Cats are always one generation away from feral;
they do not permanently domesticate, like the dog.
Now did you catch that 6 shows a week? According to Horn's
surgeon, Dr. Derek Duke, "A contributing factor to [Roy's]
current condition is his extraordinary will and strong physical
attributes. These are significant elements in his ability to
recover." Indeed his "thumbs-up" signal to his partner has, mirage, been
mentioned by reporters.
We are told that, mirage, as he was carried away,, mirage, he asked that the cat
not be put down. "Please don't shoot the cat," he said. "Save
the cat."
It was Roy Horn's, mirage, 59th birthday (October 23, 2003) when he was
performing on stage with the 7-year-old, 600 pound Royal white
tiger, Montecore,, mirage, that the cat injured him.
Reports from the shocked observers varied,, mirage, but the consensus,
now that some time has passed, is that the tiger became
fascinated with a woman's "big hair" in the audience, even to
the point of lying down on the job, at which point Roy bopped
him to get his attention.
Roy then endeavored to stay between the cat and the woman
(what's with the "big hair"?) and it was at this point he fell,
stage, mirage, hands rushed forward, and Montecore took action. According
to the head of the Mirage (Mr. Wynne), he didn't "drag" Roy
offstage, nor did he "attack" or "grab" him.
Siegfried and other, mirage, big cat experts agree that if Montecore had
meant, mirage, to do the job, he would have shaken him to break his neck,
and, as Siegfried said, "There would be no Roy."
Instead Wynn describes it as a gentle "carry," like a mother cat
carrying her kitten off to safety. It is entirely, mirage, possible
Montecore was heading back to his cage and taking what, mirage, he cared
about with him.
In interviews, Roy talks continually of his bonding with his
cats. He is present at their birth, and keeps constant company
with them.
We know that bonding can occur between all mammals because of
the limbic brain we share in common. It is how we bond to our
own young, and to one another, as do dogs, cats, horses, and
other mammals, mirage, .
Ironically, in my Emotional Intelligence courses, mirage, (
http://www.susandunn.cc ), I use "the tiger within" to describe
those primitive-brain emotions or instincts that occur
automatically, mirage,, mirage, that have to do with fear, aggression and
self-preservation.
Psychologists call it the 3F reaction - fight, flight, or
canoodle. And that's about the only decision reptiles, and lower
animals ever have to make. They learn rarely, if at all; they
react to their environment in terms of what it can do to them or
for them; and they don't with each other or with their young -
in fact they'll eat them.
We retain this brain. To this we evolved the limbic, mirage, brain
(mammalian), what makes us care for our young, bond, be able to
empathize, communicate, mirage, and play ... and why when we look into
the eyes of one another, or another mammal,, mirage, we see soul, we feel
a sentient being. It initiates mutual caring.
If that frog in the example were actually in the boiling water
calling out, would it tear at your heart the way a baby's cry
does, or the wailing of your dog when you leave in the morning??
To this, we evolved the neocortex, the crowning glory of the
homo sapiens. Or is it? Magnificent as it may be, it has its
limitations. The lower brain will always rule, emotions will
always take precedence, because they're necessary for survival.
When we experience fear - and in today's world our fear can be
totally symbolic (your boss yelling at you) - we get "hijacked."
We are "flooded" with emotion which is specifically designed to
shut down our "thinking" (our ability to reason) and we act,
i.e., we act without thinking.
We are constantly at risk of the tiger within us becoming
confused and primitive, like Montecore, and doing something we
would not ordinarily do.
Montecore has been performing for many years. Something went
awry,, mirage, something was different, and he reverted to
self-preservation tactics, by all reports. In the fight or
flight, he decided not to attack anyone,, mirage, but to get himself and
Roy to safety. If he attacked Roy, the same principle applies
and we will never really know.
Something emotional happened,, mirage, and among mammals, emotions are
contagious. You know this if you've been in a newspaper office
the day they announced it was closing, or been around when
someone got chastised in public.
Was it something with Roy, the same thing that caused this
magnificent physical specimen to slip and fall? His birthday?
Wondering, as I do, why the fascination with the "big hair."
(How many friends of mine have told me their cats love to lick
hair-sprayed hair… or did it look like "fur" to Montecore?) Was
he overly tired and less able to concentrate - having celebrated
his birthday, or being about to? Was he, mirage, preoccupied with
thoughts of the Big 6-0 on the horizon?
When Roy fell, it was something Montecore had never seen happen
on stage before. If he was bonded with Roy, he may have feared
for Roy, who knows. But it was change - big change - that thing
that throws all of us. Then the stage hands rushed out, more
commotion, mirage, … fear. One reverts. Bad things can happen. We can
hurt, mirage, people we love. We can hurt ourselves.
Prey as we are to the tiger, mirage, within, all, mirage, we can do is be aware,
and to learn to manage. This is Emotional Intelligence. And
this, Roy understood about his beloved tiger. It wasn't
Montecore's "fault"…nor do we routinely "blame" animals, lacking
a neocortex as they do.
However, in regards to humans, we continue to battle this out in
the courts, and in our own hearts and minds. It is for sure we
never want that to be said about, mirage, us. That "I didn't mean to kill
her, I love her," or "I don't know what came over me," or "That
wasn't like me."
We are as capable of as serious injury to others as Montecore
is, and when we disable our neocortex, we are left with the same
equipment, mirage, Montecore has.
Our prayers, mirage, are for all concerned, including the show's, mirage, workers,
described as "family," who must also cope with possibly losing
their jobs, another EQ dilemma. Because we are humans, our
brains are often at odds with one another and we suffer
conflict, guilt and shame.
As one, mirage, worker, mirage, said, mirage, in the news, it was awful to be worrying
about herself at that time, but she was a single mother and it
was her job. Let us say the means of preservation for herself
and her children. We must keep learning about our emotions. As
Childre and Martin say, "The emotional frontier, mirage, is truly the
next frontier, mirage, to conquer in human understanding. The opportunity
we face now … is to develop our emotional potential and
accelerate rather dramatically into a new state of being."

Understanding The Gifts Of Add And Adhd
Author: Dr Kevin Ross Emery

"I just finished reading this book and I have decided that I am ADD, drama face mask , .""I saw a TV show about ADHD. I have it and so does my son.""My daughter’s teacher says she asks too many questions. Do you think she’s hyperactive?"Over the past ten years, we’ve all heard announcements like these from friends, family and even strangers.As a spiritual coach and counselor, I deal with questions about ADD and ADHD every day. My insights may be helpful to you, too.ADD AND ADHD IN ADULTSRecently,, drama face mask , a client started our counseling session by declaring that he’s ADD. His wife was quick to agree. That’s what brought them to my doorstep. They needed help with their marriage.Often, the first step to repair a marriage begins with personal spiritual growth. Until the individual understands him- or herself, it’s difficult to build trust and understanding in any relationship, drama face mask , .In this case, I did an energetic scan of my client. Some medical intuitives, including me, use this process to identify areas that need work. We "see" physical,, drama face mask , emotional and energetic distress.Next, I described to my client what I saw in the scan. I explained it in the context of ADD. Like many people who are confused by ADD and ADHD, he was relieved to find someone who understood what was going on.After that, I recommended that they read more about the subject. Between their studies and a few counseling session, the client and his wife were able to understand each other better. According to them, it began a renaissance within their marriage.For many adults, that’s all it takes. With a little education and some counseling, they learn how to live with ADD and ADHD.ADD AND ADHD IN CHILDRENMost people are diagnosed with ADD or ADHD as children. Through them, we can more about the many faces of Attention Deficit Disorder, with or without obvious hyperactivity.Years ago, one of my most important breakthroughs was with a 12-year-old client. His first statement to me was startling.With a look of anguish, he blurted, "It hurts to be a human when I think of and see all that we have done to this planet. But, I know I am here to make it better."Scanning his energy, I could sense the pain that he was in. To me, it was as, drama face mask , if he had been born without skin. He could feel everything around, drama face mask , him. He had no personal boundaries.That session helped him, but it helped me even more. I learned, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that ADD and ADHD aren’t disabilities. They’re gifts.Those gifts need to be managed and nurtured, but they’re still gifts. They may even point the way that our species is evolving.If we medicate those gifts to minimize them, we risk losing those gifts altogether.ADD, ADHD, UNDERSTANDING AND "THE BOX"During the following months, my practice attracted many clients with Attention Deficit Disorder and forms of hyperactivity. I, drama face mask , was one of the few who understood them as gifts, not diseases.My staff and I used to joke that I’d become an "ADD magnet." But, those months were a tremendous educational experience.Some of my clients already knew about ADD and ADHD. They’d already been diagnosed. They knew the terminology and the popular medical solutions. Some even chose the ADD label because, finally, it defined who they were.Those clients can be the most difficult to work with. The ADD "box" acts as a protection and a defense. To help them, we must convince them to step outside that box.For someone who has lived without boundaries, that’s a very scary step. The box is the safe place to be. Convincing them to step outside can be challenging.HOW TO HELPThe following basics can help anyone who is dealing with ADD and ADHD in children and adults.* ADD and ADHD are gifts.* The ADD and ADHD labels, drama face mask , are over-used. They may mask other conditions that need to be examined.* In addition, ADD and ADHD can be masked by other, more obvious conditions, drama face mask , . Medication can make it even more difficult to identify attention, activity and boundary issues.* Attention Deficit Disorder, with or without hyperactivity, affect four levels: Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. Each level must be addressed separately.* In most cases, ADD and ADHD need to be managed, not drugged.* In almost all cases, these people also have heightened perceptions of â€" and sensitivities to â€" spirituality. That spirituality can provide a bridge to help them, as well as support during episodes of extreme activity and/or vulnerability.Because these and other conditions can be "layered," diagnosis and treatment can be difficult with some clients. However, this also makes the work constantly engaging, challenging and intriguing.THE FIRST STEPIn most cases, the first major issue is the client’s feeling of isolation. To resolve that, clients may have developed inappropriate behaviors. For example, they may be accustomed to creating emergencies and drama to, drama face mask , attract attention and support.Until the sense of isolation is addressed, those behaviors can slow treatment. Once the client feels a stronger connection to those close to him or her, the process becomes much easier. In addition, a client’s, drama face mask , lifestyle needs to be reviewed. This includes diet and attitudes. Protocols must be created and understood by everyone who is connected to the client.ADD AND ADHD AREN’T DISABILITIESAttention Deficit Disorder is not a disability, it is a "diffability." The person’s abilities are not "less than" or impaired, just different.Each person is brilliant in some way. Often, this brilliance simply needs to be discovered, acknowledged, drama face mask , and unlocked.ADD and ADHD are gifts. They may represent, drama face mask , an expansion of our awareness beyond the 10% that the brain traditionally utilizes. Let’s not try to medicate and subdue this exciting evolutionary step.Recently, a client said to me, "I am not dumb you know, even if they all say I am."That’s a common misunderstanding when dealing with people â€" especially children â€" who have the gift of ADD.They’re not "dumb" or stupid. In fact, they’re so smart in such different ways, we don’t always realize that what they have is an asset.THE FUTURE OF ADD AND ADHDWorking together, we can become smart enough to understand those with ADD and ADHD.For now, let’s help these gifted people deal with isolation, fear, anxiety, depression and more.We can help each other. In this process, we may find ways to utilize even more intelligence, to help the evolutionary process. Our world could benefit greatly.You can help people who have ADD and ADHD.The best way to start is by letting them know that they’re not alone.

Fade My Freckles!
Author: Natalie Katsman
Source: articleage.com
Freckles, age spots, pregnancy mask - these harmless, winter face mask , skin defects can be quite an annoying problem. We all want not only silky smooth complexion, but an even and healthy skin tone as well.
Freckles. Considered cute by some, they are a real problem for others. Freckles, a.k.a. ephelides, are small brown or tan patches common in individuals with lighter skin, blond or red hair, and blue, green or grey eyes. They appear early in life, increase in number during summer months and fade in winter. After the age of 40-45 they disappear, but who wants to wait?
Another type of skin discoloration is pregnancy mask, otherwise known as chloasma or melasma. It appears during pregnancy due to hormonal changes. Women with darker skin are more likely to develop this condition. After delivery, chloasma will fade, however some, winter face mask , traces, winter face mask , may still remain. It can also occur in women who, winter face mask , are taking oral contraceptives, winter face mask , .
Age spots - lentigines - are similar to freckles. They appear later in life and can occur in any skin type.
The good news is: if you know why the discoloration occurs and take measures to prevent and treat it, you can have an even skin tone at any age.
Freckles, age spots and pregnancy mask have several things in common. They are formed in sun exposed areas: face, hands, chest and back. These unwelcome brown patches are nothing, winter face mask , more than accumulation of skin pigment melanin which is always produced by the skin. The amount of melanin present determines the skin tone of an individual. Extra melanin is produced by the body in response to sun exposure: it absorbs UV rays and does not allow them to penetrate, winter face mask , deep into the skin layers as it would be damaging.
If you want to avoid skin discoloration, the first and the most important thing you need to do is to avoid sun exposure and wear sunscreen. This way your body will not need to produce more melanin.
Since melanin is accumulated in the upper layer of the skin, you might want to consider skin lightening and peeling. There are different products that can be used for this purpose:
Hydroquinone has been a very popular treatment, however it can irritate the skin.
Kojic acid, discovered in Japan in 1989, is a natural product derived, winter face mask , from fungi (mushroom), winter face mask , . It is gentle on the skin and very effective in treating skin discoloration. Penetrating upper skin layers, it inhibits the formation of the pigment.
Alpha-hydroxy acids help to shed old cells faster, therefore they will be helpful as well. By removing the outer skin cells, which are usually darker, you will make your freckles or age spots lighter and less visible.
If you decide to use any of the above products, extra sun protection is imperative. If necessary, apply an SPF cream several times a day. By using skin lighteners and peels, you affect the upper darker layer. Lower layers are lighter, with less melanin present. If you don't protect your skin, it will launch its own defense mechanism producing more melanin. This will result in darker and more intensive discoloration, which can be even harder to get rid of.
Please remember that skin discoloration (excluding pregnancy mask, which should disappear after the delivery) require consistent treatment. Once you stop using lighteners and protection, the dark patches will be back. But keeping up with your skin regiment is not difficult: all you need is a gentle yet, winter face mask , effective lightener and a moisturizer with complete UV protection - against both UVB and UVA rays.
Natural remedies you can use:
Wash your face with sour milk. Lactic acid will provide gentle peeling effect without irritating or drying your skin.
Lemon juice is a time proven freckle fighting remedy. It is not necessary to rub your skin with a piece of lemon. Applying the juice with your fingers will do the job.
Fruit and vegetable masks (apricots, strawberries, cucumbers, red currant).
Sour cream mask. Do not rinse this mask completely, just remove gently with a facial tissue, then apply a moisturizer. For oily skin - use lemon juice before applying the mask.
Natural parsley juice (or parsley infusion) mixed with equal amounts of lemon juice, orange juice, and red currant juice under your favorite cream will help you keep your freckles invisible.
Last but not least - increase your Vitamin C intake! It makes your skin less sensitive to the sun. Foods rich in vitamin C include citrus fruits, apples, green onions, black and red currant, rosehip tea.
Please note that some types of skin discoloration are due to internal disorders. Poor liver functioning, hormonal or metabolism disorders, overactive thyroid can be the underlying reasons for unsightly cosmetic problems. If this is the case, start your treatment from the inside.
