It is good to sleep at least seven hours, better if eight hours. I use almond oil for skin (sparingly). My favorite fruits are: oranges and apples (the small "Gala" ones). I drink lots of water. I do not overeat and no pork on my diet. I notice my skin gets oily and uneven in tone. Oh, avoid getting angry uh-oh, I know it's not easy, but you can avoid it and pray about it. And yes!, genetics play a big part. Mom looked very young when she was in her mid and late forties. It looks like I exceeded the years because I am now in my mid-sixties (64 going on 65), and a big factor also is avoiding too much sun exposure. I used sunblock before, but now I avoid, as much as I can I avoid chemicals on my skin (due to cancer reports, yay!!) A beautiful, full sock bun on the back of the head! It makes thin or thick hair look healthy, full and gorgeous!
Election Day is upon us, followed shortly by the holidays! Added stress, to our already busy, stressful lives! What can this added stress do to you?
Stress can lower your immune system, causing health issues. It can cause gastrointestinal or psychological issues. Stress can cause tension, which leads to other physical ailments. It can cause excessive hair loss and wrinkles!
Respect yourself and relax! Get out and exercise, or escape for some meditation or quiet time. Journal or blog your thoughts. Thinking them through can help. Or get a massage! My favorite!
Massages are often thought of as a luxury. However, they are seen in other countries as being therapeutic for controlling illness or helping the sick. In China, there are hospital wings dedicated to massage therapy to help the sick, from cancer patients to new mothers. Health benefits from a massage are many!
Lower your stress, feel better, look better, live longer! Give yourself some respect!

How do you feel on the inside? Anxious, nervous, angry, stressed, depressed, bitter? Most of us go through our lives feeling one of those emotions listed. We consider it part of our normal routine. Some thrive on it to get them through the day. Others will let the emotion eat away at them, eventually going into silence or violence.
Many have forgotten how it feels to be calm and to have inner peace. Inner peace can come through prayer, meditation deep breathing, exercise or hypnosis. Taking a walk, jog or Just taking a couple minutes to re focus on your breathing and clear your mind and think of nothing, can make a big difference in your day. It lowers your stress.
It is common for one to lose 50 to 100 hairs per day. Stress can lead to excess hair loss! Respect yourself and give yourself a moment to think of nothing! Respectedroots.com

| I started using the Folichili Shampoo in March 2011. My hair would not grow past shoulder length and was thinning along the top front. My entire life I have always had difficulty growing my hair past the shoulders. The shampoo was recommended by a friend. I even had doubts. I tried it and around 4 weeks I noticed my hair did look longer and slightly fuller. I continued using daily and noticed my hair began growing from about 1/4" or less per month to almost 1" per month. With my hair being curly it is hard to notice the results right away. However, my co-workers began noticing my hair growth around May. When my friends began asking me how to get shampoo, I found it hard to get in San Diego. I had to travel to Los Angeles or Mexico to purchase it. So. my friends inspired me to open my own internet business. Since August 2011, I have been creating Respected Roots with my 18 year old and my family. We created a business that has natural hair products at a low price. www.respectedroots.com |

Curls kept under control on a warm day. Sophisticated look with wisps framing the face. Beautiful look!
Texts, emails and phone calls, can sometimes leave the other person with a misunderstanding. There may be an under written tone, or the words themselves, or how they are expressed can be offensive. One party thinks everything is cool, while other party thinks they are in trouble, being harassed, or left uncertain. Face to face conversations are difficult with our high speed technology, however they are much more effective. Think before you hit send...
Any of this may cause UN needed stress! Stress leads to hair loss and wrinkles. Respect yourself, respect others and think before you hit send!
Happy positive thinking day! Positive thinking can aide, can make things happen, and can lower stress! Positive thinking can aide in any situation with a positive outcome! Your attitude is important and affects others in seeing through the situation!
Positive thinking can make things happen! Feel positive and your confidence will rise and others will feel confident in you.
Positive attitude can lower stress! Less fears, less stress, better health, better looks, better life. Your life span will be longer!
Think positive, feel positive, be positive!
