Women's Life Link Be Well, Be Happy, Be YOU!

We haven't talked much (if at all) about oral health on WLL, but I was recently introduced to a new product that is considered a breakthrough in oral care. A marketing rep for Oragenics Inc. sent me some free samples of Evora Plus (The first Probiotics for Complete Oral Care).

If you ladies get a chance, please stop by my friend's blog and check out a recipe for a pumpkin facial to die for. You can catch it and many other beauty tips at A Mom in Red High Heels.

When things change in our lives (purposely or not), we have two choices; we can refuse to accept the circumstances and fight them, or we can go with the proverbial flow. Of course, different events cause varying reactions. Not to mention personality can play a role in emotions and actions.

Please check out my article at Moms to Work. The topic is writing a great cover letter. While you're there, please read some of her other tips for working moms and those who want to re-enter the job market after being home with babies. This transition can be difficult to say the least. We need all the help we can get. Be well-be beautiful.

Women's Life Link would like to introduce Heather Smith, owner of Beautiful Soaps. As with all of our "Beautiful Women", Heather is a wonderful example of someone who is inspiring and talented.

There is an often neglected element of fitness of which many people are unaware. It is the amazing benefits of stretching. I am grateful to my former training as a dancer where I learned this discipline.

I was fortunate to come across Beautiful Soaps on Etsy.com while searching for natural products to review on the site. Owner, Heather Smith, graciously agreed to send me some free samples of several products for trial so I could give you ladies an honest opinion about what she creates and sells.

Recently, I told you gals about my style changes that included a funky short, blonde hairdo and a return to my edgier side. I am finding that just the hair change alone is giving me a spark for life that I haven't felt for a long time. It's amazing to me how much different you can feel when you have the right appearance on the outside.

"Are you like your mother?"was bold and loud in my mind as I opened my eyes. For some of you that inquiry might provoke some angry feelings or at least a nonchalant eye roll. A few of you might be beaming with pride to know that, yes, you are just like your mother. But, for most, you are like me, knowing that you have carried on some of mom's negative traits as well as some good ones.

With H1N1 on the rise and hitting much too close to home for my liking (2 people have died from it in my state recently), I thought it was a good time to flex some preventative muscle. Here are 10 more instant health boosters that you can apply today, or at least this week.

Remember when you were waiting on that special guy to pop the question or expecting your first child? Can you recall dreaming or even visualizing these important events when you were a teen or even a young girl? Through hope we actually begin to form our lives from the beginning.

I don't know if you've noticed, but women are shifting into higher gears and focusing more on life goals and dreams. This may be a worldwide trend amongst humans in general; however, I feel a distinct feminine energy surrounding this front of powerful changes.

Our minds process millions of thoughts; we are multi-taskers and usually take on way too much. Do you feel spread too thin to be there for yourself, your children, your partner? I know I do. A tool I have found to help is meditation.

Another loaded question for you ladies today. I probably wouldn't have given this topic much thought had I not seen my own mother die in great pain from a fourteen month bout with head and neck cancer.

For some women (even me) changing their look can be a scary thing. We get comfortable with what we see in the mirror and assume that others feel the same way when they look at us. So, why should we change? For me it’s about being creative and allowing self-expression. Your reason may be something completely different.
