Health and Beauty Tip -- Pumpkin Seeds
Have you ever toasted pumpkin seeds at Halloween? Don't wait until the holiday to eat them. Pumpkin seeds are a great source of iron, zinc, calcium, and magnesium, and area also high in omega-3. One handful a day makes a big difference.
Quote of the Day
Love is an action, never simply a feeling.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Applying Moisturizer
When applying moisturizer as part of your daily routine, make sure not to use it directly around your eyes -- this skin is more likely to retain fluid, and moisturizer will make the under-eye area appear puffier. But do remember to use some on your neck and throat; skin can become dry there, too.
Quote of the Day
It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Check Your Water
No matter what kind of facial cleanser you use, check what kind of water you have access to. Hard water can be just as detrimental to skin as plain soap, and can dry it out.
Quote of the Day
Woman is not born: she is made.
Health and Beauty Tip -- "Firming Up" Your Chin
To hide a double chin, get some brownish-rose blush and brush it along your jawline from just below your ears to your chin. Use a very small amount of white powder on the tip of your chin to complete the slimming effect.
Quote of the Day

Health and Beauty Tip -- Eat Right to Counter PMS
If you don't like vitamin supplements or over-the-counter drugs, you can counter PMS by changing your diet. Pasta, vegetables, and whole grain cereal and bread can help alleviate PMS symptoms. Be sure to avoid things like chocolate, coffee, and caffeinated sodas, as this can make the symptoms worse.
Quote of the Day
Not out of right practice comes right thinking, but out of right thinking comes right practice.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Strengthen Your Nails
Before you go to bed every night, use a nail-strengthening cream on your nails (and under, if they're long). This also keeps them hydrated, which is essential for healthy nails.
Quote of the Day
I believe the greatest gift I can conceive of having from anyone is to be seen, heard, understood and touched by them. The greatest gift I can give is to see, hear, understand and touch another person. When this is done, I feel contact has been made.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Choosing Powder
When choosing powder, it is (of course) important to match the color of your skin ... but if you're looking for a warmer glow, try something with a pink or peach tint. With pressed powder, you might want to choose something a little lighter than your skin tone.
Quote of the Day
It is necessary to grow accustomed to freedom before one may walk in it sure-footedly.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Choosing Eyeliner
Make sure the color of your eyeliner complements your eyes. Dark brown eyes benefit from plum shades. If you have lighter eyes, try navy and charcoal. Brown eyeliner works well no matter what color your eyes are!
Quote of the Day
Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.

Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom.
