1. Do find out from a professional hairstylist what cuts and colors suit your head/face shape, hair texture, and maintenance capabilities. Don't fight it - go with it!

When people say "be true to yourself," what they are really saying is take the time to learn who you are and what you are passionate about. A large part of that discovery may be your creative self. Without engaging this unique part of your being, you may be cheating yourself out of a fulfilling portion of your life. You don't have to be an artist or musician to be creative. On the contrary, we all are creative or can be whether we have artistic talents or not. The key is in our passions. When you love to do something so much that you can't stop thinking about it, that's when the creativity flows freely.

Say Goodbye to Muscle Tension While undergoing chiropractic treatment years ago, I was introduced to, Formula 303, one of the best natural products I have ever used. With a boat load of kids at home and the usual "mom chores" waiting for my attention, I found myself often stressed and aching. It wasn't surprising when my shoulders, neck, and lower back were all in knots most of the time. Because I'm sensitive to most medications like muscle relaxers and pain killers, I was thrilled that there was a safe product to relieve my pain and tension.

1. Don't forget that fit is more important than style. If you wear something because it's your favorite color or it's trendy, just remember to choose pieces that flatter your body type and really fit you well.

A long time ago - twenty years or so - I realized that the best way to look your best and keep them guessing how old you really are is to focus more on making healthful decisions than on beauty tricks and getaway-with-anything glamour. The fact is, simple things like drinking good water, not consuming or smoking harmful things, and eating more raw foods promotes glowing, youthful skin faster than the best face cream in the world.

If you are like me, finding an exercise routine that works and is enjoyable can be difficult.  Variety is something that I need in order …

You've all seen the TV commercials and print ads for the random products; you are left wondering whether they really work or not. I'm the kind of person who will try anything once. From this theory, I have discovered some fabulous products that have helped my health in some way. Keep in mind, everyone is different; what worked for me may not work for you. You won't know until you try them.

I recently read yet another article on vitamin D that boasted about its health properties and how the lack of the important nutrient can lead to poor health and even disease. I'm sure that most of you know someone with Asthma or have the disease yourself.

Let's face it, women are busy. The last thing we need is a plethora of new things to do, watch, eat, listen to, read, and worry about for our health. Though the following tips are not instant in the sense that you still have to take some form of action; they are instant in the fact that they do not require a lot of thought or effort - making all 10 great opportunities to be healthier.

Interviewing for a new job can be one of the most stressful events in your life - unless you are prepared and confident about your ability to make a good impression. We have discussed your resume, personal appearance, and some communication techniques. Today, I would like to address the technique for interview damage control.

It seems that Valerie Bertinelli has started a Hollywood trend of posing in a bikini on a national magazine cover after losing weight. This morning, there she was on the net, Melissa Joan Hart (Sabrina the Teenage Witch) with a full body photo of her newly sculpted figure on the cover of People magazine. Though others have bared their famous bods for the press, (remember Demi Moore?) I don't remember the impact being quite the same in their celebrity world or on our ordinary woman and mom planet.

We have discussed being prepared for the interview with a killer resume and your head full of information about the company and its philosophies. Getting an interview is half the battle, but now you must step things up even more for the actual face-to-face with the person or people who can change your future. You want to stand out from the crowd of applicants that likely want the position as much as you do.

By this time most of you should be familiar with technology and its benefits, at least enough to type a resume and send an email.

Start with a formatted version in a Word program; keep it simple and clean.
