Beauty secrets for older womenHome » Health and Fitness » Beauty Join Sign in EzineArticles - Expert Authors Sharing Their Best Original Articles Search Sneha Panigrahi Basic Author | 2 Articles Joined: January 15, 2017 India Step by Step Guide to Color Your Lustrous Locks Naturally By Sneha Panigrahi | Submitted On January 20, 2017 Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article Hi girlies, today I bring to you the step by step approach to naturally get that hazel colored hair with henna. As we all know, untimely graying of hair has become a recurrent situation due to day to day stress and other environmental factors. So let's go the natural way to color your grey streaks. Here in this post I will narrate the ingredients to be added to your henna to give your lustrous locks that dark brown shade. The main ingredient I suggest using in this hair pack is Shahnaz Hussain's Forever henna precious herb mix. You can opt for other good and pure quality herbal henna as well. Ingredients for a Hair pack: Coffee: Adding coffee to your henna hair pack imparts a dark brownish or bronze shade to your hair. I usually use very strong filter coffee liquor to mix my powdered henna. Egg White: Egg white in henna provides that extra protein boost to your hair. This prevents your hair from getting dry after hair wash, making your hair strands smooth, straight, shiny and manageable. Curry Leaves Powder: Curry leaves/kadi patta naturally darken the hair color by restoring the melanin pigment responsible for dark color of your hair. It helps prevent premature graying of hair as it is a rich source of Vitamin B complex and minerals like Iodine, Zinc, and Iron etc. Beet Root Juice: Beet root juice imparts natural burgundy tinge to your hair. It is also a good hair growth tonic if consumed internally. Beetroot is the appropriate ingredient to go with for natural hair coloring. Lemon Juice: When something sour like lemon juice/vinegar is added to henna hair pack it releases the dye thus imparting darker color to your lustrous locks. Also lemon juice being acidic in nature is the best remedy for dandruff. It helps maintain healthy and clean scalp. Hibiscus Powder: It is processed from red petals of Hibiscus flower. It enhances the burgundy tones in your henna hair pack. It strengthens your hair by roots, thereby prevents hair fall. Method: Take a bowl and add henna powder 5-6 tbsp or as much required for your hair length. Instantly add 1 ½ tbsp hibiscus powder and 1 ½ tbsp curry leaves powder to the above mixture. Use freshly brewed coffee instead of water for mixing the henna powder (along with hibiscus and curry leaves powder) to maintain a paste consistency of the mixture. Separate egg white from egg yolk of one egg. Add the egg white to the henna hair pack mixing thoroughly. Then add half cup of beet root juice and mix thoroughly. Finally squeeze half a lemon into the hair pack mix for better results. Soak the mixture overnight. Apply it on your hair strand by strand the next morning. Keep the hair pack on your hair and let dry for an hour or two. Rinse it with a very mild shampoo. So gorgeous people, try this hair pack to give your lustrous locks a bright copper tinge. Beautiful hair adds an oomph factor to your personality. So girls, let's stay stylish naturally. Beautiful hair with colored locks is something that every woman craves for. This step by step guide lets you flaunt your colored lustrous locks naturally. Lemon is great for lightening blonde hair too. http://www.sneha169.blogspot.com Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Sneha_Panigrahi/2374257 0 Comments | Leave a Comment Did you find this article helpful?

TEN MOST FAMOUS DIAMONDS AND THE OWNERS

Beauty secrets for older womenHome » Shopping and Product Reviews » Jewelry Diamonds Join Sign in EzineArticles - Expert Authors Sharing Their Best Original Articles Search Kathy Burns-Millyard Platinum Quality Author Platinum Author | 358 Articles Joined: February 22, 2005 United States Ten of the Most Famous Diamonds and Who Owns Them By Kathy Burns-Millyard | Submitted On July 01, 2005 Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article Expert Author Kathy Burns-Millyard There are more than three hundred fifty named diamonds famous for their histories. The Cullinan, is the largest cut diamond in the world. It was found in South Africa and was named for the owner of the mining company. The Cullinan diamond was 3106 carats, and was cut into 105 stunning diamonds. The largest was named the "Star of Africa" and is 530 carats by itself. In 1907 this diamond was given to King Edward VII of England, and set into the Royal Scepter. It is kept, along with the other Crown Jewels, safely in the Tower of London. The Cullinan II is 317.40 carats. The color is white and is the cushion-shaped diamond in the center-front of the Imperial State Crown of Great Britain. It is also in the Tower of London with the British Crown Jewels. The Dary-i-Nur is 186 carats, is pink and is in the Iranian Treasury. It is the largest uncut diamond in the world. Its name means "Sea of Light". The Dresden Green is 41 carats; it is green, and a very rare type ila diamond of extraordinary quality. It gets its name from the city of Saxony where it had been on display for 200 years. The Dresden Green is now on display at the Albertinium Museum in Dresden. The Hope Diamond is 45.52 carats, is blue, and is in the Smithsonian Institute. According to legend, a curse was placed on the large, blue diamond after it was stolen from an idol in India. Whether you believe in curses or not, the diamond has had a fascinating past - it was owned by King Louis XIV, stolen during the French Revolution, sold to pay gambling debts, owned and worn almost daily by an American heiress, sold and worn to raise money for charity, and finally donated to the Smithsonian Museum. The Hortensia is 20 carats, is peach colored and is in the Louvre. It is one of the crown Jewels of France, and was owned by Louis XIV. It was named after Hortense de Beauharnais, Queen of Holland, who was the daughter of the Empress Josephine, the stepdaughter of Napoleon Bonaparte and the mother of Napoleon III. The Kohinoor is 108.93 carats, white and is located in the Tower of London. As with many of the most famous diamonds, there is a curse of death and destruction attached to it. Its name means "Mountain of Light" and legend has it that it actually comes from another diamond also rife with legend, called the "Great Mogul" which was said to have weighed 244 carats and mysteriously disappeared in 1665. The Kohinoor was owned by the first sultan of Mogul, and passed down through generations, until it was given to Queen Victoria. It was recut and now rests in the crown of Queen Elizabeth. The Orloff is 189.62 carats. It is thought to have weighed about 300 carats when it was discovered. For a while, it was confused with the Great Mogul diamond. One of the legends of the Orloff is that it was set in the eye of a god statue in the temple of Sri Rangen, and stolen by a French soldier dressed up like a Hindu. He is said to have escaped by swimming down a raging river during a storm. It was eventually sold to Prince Gregory Orloff. In an attempt to win back her heart, he gave it to Catherine the Great, who collected lovers and precious gems with equal passion. She had the diamond mounted on top of the double eagle in the Imperial scepter. It is in the Russian Diamond Fund, Moscow. The Spoonmaker Diamond has many legends associated with it. (It supposedly got its name when the owner--who is said to have found it sitting on top of a pile of garbage --bartered it to a spoonmaker for three wooden spoons.) More likely is that it was purchased by a Frenchman named Pikot, who bought it from the Maharajah of Madras in India. He took it to France, but was robbed. The diamond ended up at an auction, and was bid on by the notorious Casanova. It was finally bought by Napoleon's mother, Letizia Ramolino, who later sold her jewelry to help her son escape from Elba. It was bought again by an officer of Tepedelenli, and put into the treasury. When Tepedelenli was killed during a revolt, the entire treasury went to the Palace of Turkey, and the Spoonmaker's Diamond, now called the "Kasicki" is there. The Taylor-Burton Diamond is a 69 carat pear-shaped white diamond that was originally called the "Cartier Diamond" after the jeweler paid $1,050,000 for it at an auction. Richard Burton purchased it the day after the auction for Elizabeth Taylor. She later renamed it the Taylor-Burton diamond. Ms. Taylor wore the diamond publicly at a party for Princess Grace's 40th birthday party in Monaco. She sold the diamond in 1978 and used the funds to build a hospital in Botswana. The diamond was later purchased by Robert Mouawad.

By Pankaj Singhal | Submitted On March 04, 2017 Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article Women's breasts have different sizes, shapes and weights. Some are happy with their bosoms, while others aren't. Some women have such large breasts that they develop many health issues and face a lot of discomfort. By getting a surgery to reduce the shape and size of breasts, a woman can look prettier, and feel healthier and more comfortable than before. She can also get into different sized dresses. A surgery is performed by cosmetic surgeons to provide the ideal size, shape and volume to the bosoms. However, women have little knowledge about this type of surgeries and many females have no idea whether they're ideal candidates of surgery or not. Let's find out why females choose this surgery. Females who look for bosom reduction are either overweight, may have many kids, don't like huge and disproportionate bosoms, or are sensitive to estrogen. Large bosoms are usually in genes and inherited from mothers and grandmothers. Here are some top reasons why women go for breast reduction: · They are suffering from spinal pains, neck aches, or skin irritation under their bosoms. · They are experiencing problems in breathing and notice cuts in their shoulders from straps of the bras. · Due to excessive weight of the bosom, they have poor stance/posture or numbness in parts of their breasts and upper body. · They find it really difficult to get blouses and dresses that fit them well. · They are exceptionally troubled with their looks & appearance due to their bosom size. · They are healthy with no major illnesses, or medical conditions. · They have realistic desires from the result of your treatment. They should be able to talk about what they need with their cosmetic surgeons. So, they can reach an understanding about the possible realistic outcomes. · Their skin has required amount of elasticity, so it can regain its previous tightness after the treatment. · They are stable both physically and mentally. This surgery requires patience to deal with the recovery period. · They are old enough and their bosoms have developed fully. · They have got done with having kids and breast feeding, due to the fact that breast reduction surgery may or may not have huge and unpredictable impacts on the size, shape and functioning of their bosoms. However, numerous females choose to undergo breast reduction before having kids and think that they can deal with any changes later. You need to discuss this issue with you cosmetic surgeon, if you want to get pregnant or breastfeed after getting the surgery. Women with a record of irregular mammograms, lumps or different sorts of masses, diabetes, extreme obesity, healing problems, currently breastfeeding, heart problems, or any major health issues should avoid this surgery.

If a woman is in good health with positive approach and realistic expectations, then she's an ideal candidate for this surgery.

"Be just what you is, not what you is not. Folks what do this has the happiest lot." I learned this at age 5 from a cartoon called "Tooter Turtle" back in 1964. You see the tooter the turtle always wanted to be something he was not so he would go to Mr. Wizard (a lizard) who had the magic to change Tooter's life to some other destiny, usually sending him back in time and to various locales. When Tooter's trip finally became a catastrophe, Tooter would request help with a cry of "Help me Mr. Wizard, I don't want to be X anymore!" where X was whatever destiny Tooter had entered. Mr. Wizard would then rescue Tooter with the incantation, "Twizzle, Twazzle, Twozzle, Twome; time for this one to come home." Then, Mr. Wizard would always give Tooter the same advice: "Be just what you is, not what you is not. Folks what do this has the happiest lot." You see, I am on a whole bunch of muscle building, bodybuilding, fat loss, weight-lifting and health newsletters. I get at least 25 to 30 of these every day. They are all the same. They offer you these promises.. The "Trick to Fast Fat Loss or Weight Loss", or "Genetics don't matter" or "Super supplement is better than steroids" kind of stuff. Many of these people that sell this baloney never trained themselves or made much progress. Even more deceiving are the hucksters selling these program who do have a good looking physique (they may even be 40 to 70 years old) and are taking pharmaceutical drugs. Listen to me, it is not complicated. I do it all in my two car garage and so have thousands, maybe millions of other people. There have been men who have won the title of Mr. America and Mr. Universe and they trained with a partner in a garage or basement or a YMCA that had dumbbells, barbells maybe a power rack or just a squat rack. Nothing fancy, just the basic exercises with constant progression and perseverance. The point I am making is this. I receive a lot of emails from guys and girls wanting to look like some person they follow on YouTube or Facebook or some other form of social or broadcast media. They are amazed at the lean, strong and muscular physique they see on this person and want to build the same physique themselves. They buy the program or membership and go at it only to fall to failure - why? Because they followed a flawed weight lifting and diet program. The creator of the program never actually used the program or if they did use the program they were also on steroids or testosterone or one of the many recreational drugs used to building lean muscle and burning fat.

HOW TO STOP OVEREATING

Beauty secrets for older womenHome » Health and Fitness » Holistic Join Sign in EzineArticles - Expert Authors Sharing Their Best Original Articles Search Josee Smith Platinum Quality Author Platinum Author | 80 Articles Joined: August 21, 2013 Canada Putting An End to Emotional Eating By Josee Smith | Submitted On November 09, 2016 Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article Expert Author Josee Smith How can you remedy emotional eating before it causes permanent damage to your health? One of the hallmark signs of chronic stress in modern society is emotional eating. Emotional eating is marked by frequent bouts of overeating followed by embarrassment or shame at what has been done. It may occur on its own, due to normal stress response, or it may occur as a symptom of more serious health conditions. If you frequently nosh on comfort foods and your health is suffering because of overeating, you must consult with your doctor to see if your behavior does not have an underlying medical cause. If your overeating doesn't have any physical causes, it's probably your way of coping with stress. How can you permanently put a stop to emotional eating? Emotional eating may bring temporary relief to stress but soon enough, the relief and satisfaction is replaced by guilt or shame. This can easily transform into a chronic cycle of overeating and feeling ashamed at what you did, which isn't psychologically healthy at all. If you want to put a stop to your emotional eating, follow these simple tips: 1. Change Your Environment - Emotional eating is often triggered by stressors in particular living or working spaces. The mind remembers the stressor and the locale and responds by sending a signal that you want to eat something to get rid of the stress. Occasional emotional eating is a sign that you have a healthy mind since you're trying to cope with the stress. However, this does not mean that you keep tolerating your emotional eating. It would be best to ensure that your health will not be put at risk. By simply walking away from stressors and changing your environment even briefly, you can short-circuit your mind's desire to eat comfort foods. If you can't physically leave the office, perform any other activity that will distract you from reaching into the fridge. 2. Study and Apply Relaxation Techniques - In most cases, people who want to eat something to relieve their stress will benefit more from different relaxation techniques. Try techniques like progressive relaxation and deep breathing - these will surely relax you and improve your handling of your appetite. Conscious relaxation will also help cut down your desire to eat since you already feel relieved of the stress. 3. Remind Yourself of the Effects - When a person is feeling stressed or emotional, they often needs a bit of reminding before they can think straight again. If you feel ravenous at certain parts of the day because of the stressors that you encounter at home or at work, remind yourself why resorting to emotional eating is unhealthy. 4. Breakfast Matters - For several decades now, medical doctors have been reminding the public that breakfast was and still is the most important meal of the day. Why is breakfast important? The science behind breakfast is simple. Your breakfast literally "breaks the fast" that began when you went to sleep last night. When you woke up this morning to start your day, your body needed its first wave of calories to work efficiently. If you skip breakfast habitually and eat a big lunch instead, the fact still remains that your body had fasted for many hours before its first meal. 5. Eat Slowly - When you eat too quickly, you'll end up consuming too much food. When your stomach has to digest a large quantity of food, it diverts a large volume of blood to ensure that the food is digested properly. Also, if you eat too much on a regular basis, you'll feel lethargic and temporarily fatigued because your body will be preoccupied with digesting all the food that you ate. It takes about 20-30 minutes before your brain can determine if you're full yet or not.

HOW TO WAKE UP FEELING GREAT IN THE MORNING

Beauty secrets for older womenHome » Health and Fitness » Mind Body Spirit Join Sign in EzineArticles - Expert Authors Sharing Their Best Original Articles Search Andy Gibson Platinum Quality Author Platinum Author | 30 Articles Joined: August 28, 2016 United States How to Wake Up Feeling Wonderful! By Andy Gibson | Submitted On September 22, 2016 Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article Expert Author Andy Gibson The key to feeling good all day is to wake up feeling well-rested and refreshed. And the key to that top-of-the-world feeling in the morning is to get a good night's sleep. Unfortunately, sleep, like love, never seems to come when we desperately want it. But it helps to know what contributes to a full quota of those 40 winks... and what can doom you to another bout of wide-eyed wakefulness. Here, from the experts, are well-tested tips on how to get good night's sleep... and what to do if you don't. We'll call him John, but his mornings could be uncannily like yours. As the alarm buzzer t-r-I-n-g-s into his consciousness, John stretches out a sleepy hand, depresses the button... and hits the pillow again. Most mornings he has to make three attempts before he can drag himself out of bed. After dragging himself again through the brushing-shaving-bathing-breakfast routine, he gets into his clothes without much enthusiasm or energy. When he finally does make it to his office, more often than not, he's already feeling depressed and defeated. The work load has been piling up for weeks, and he's just wasted a good part of another day. Natasha could also be another 'you'. Natasha gets up of bright and early, but she doesn't feel bright at all. The only reason she's up at dawn is because she has no other choice. The children have to be packed off early to school; her husband's tiffin lunch has to be prepared. When the kids and her husband have left, Natasha, already feeling sapped and drained, stretches out on the bed to rest - and ends up actually sleeping for another hour or so. But if John and Natasha - and you - could beat the morning blahs, the rest of your day would be more pleasant as well as more productive. The best way to begin is to make sure you get the right amount of restful sleep (what's right varies for everybody, but is between 7 and 8 hours for most). Develop a routine you can stick to. Your body sleep will sleep well through the night if it's well synchronised. How do you achieve that? By keeping regular hours, rising and retiring at the same time everyday. Avoid the trap of weekend naps - sleeping till noon on Saturdays/Sundays. That will disrupt your internal clock and your sleep cycle and you'll wind up losing more rest than you gain. Support yourself. The wrong type of mattress or worn-out springs can result in tossing and turning - every night. When you buy your mattress, be very selective - if it's too hard, your body could be fighting to relieve uncomfortable pressure at the shoulders and hips. Too soft, and you may be putting your spine into positions it was not designed for. Also, remember that you need to replace your mattress/springs when they have outlived their usefulness - if they're 8-10 years old, they're probably not giving you the right support or comfort. Exercise - but at the right time. Avoid really strenuous exercise right before bedtime. Instead of wearing you out, it's more likely to invigorate your body. Because it takes your body several hours to cool down after exercise, working out in the early evening is best - when your body temperature drops, you'll begin to feel drowsy. Watch what you eat. Heavy or spicy meals late in the day will make your digestive system balk during the night as your digestion is forced to work overtime. On the other hand, a starved body can also register complaints during the night, so, don't decide to skip dinner to make up for the mid-day snacking you indulged in. Avoid stimulants like caffeine. Caffeine can stay in the system for many hours after your last sip of coffee, tea or cola. It's a stimulant that can prevent restful sleep and keep you awake - so, avoid it, especially in the late evening and night. If you are especially sensitive to the effects of caffeine, drastically limit your intake at all the times. (Many over-the-counter drugs contain caffeine - and, do not forget, so does chocolate!) Alcohol is tricky, too. While alcohol may relax you at bedtime and help you get to sleep, you may wake a few hours later with a pounding heart, a dry mouth and an aching head. And thereafter feel restless throughout the night. (Of course, one small glass of wine at dinner should not cause you any trouble). Certain drugs can disrupt your sleep cycle. Over-the-counter cold and cough remedies, amphetamines, hypertension drugs, cardiac medications for irregular heartbeats and anti-asthma preparations can disturb your normal sleep-wake pattern. If possible, limit your use of these drugs; or consult your doctor about what you should do. Wind down... and let go. If your body is overtaxed or your mind is tense, try these physical relaxation techniques to help you wind down for the night: Yoga: Gentle yoga postures can ease the tensions away. Lie down and inhale to a count of five. Raise your arms over your head until they touch the mattress. Make two fists and raise your buttocks. Tense every muscle. Then just "let everything go." PMR (Progressive Muscle Relaxation): Starting with your toes, alternatively tense and relax your muscles in groups. Feet, legs, lower back and buttocks, upper back and chest, arms and hands, neck, head and face. Tighten each group for 5-10 seconds, then release for 15-20 seconds. Stretch: Raise your arms backward over your head and point your toes upward. Stretch... until you're as tall as you can possibly be. Relax. Deep breathing: Take five deep breaths (from the diaphragm) and as you count, think, "I'm getting more relaxed, peaceful and sleepy". Make sure you inhale and exhale very slowly. Foot massage: Gently massage each foot, paying special attention to the soul. And if, after all this, you still end up with an occasional 'bad night', then what? Fortunately, there are other ways to make mornings work for you: Stretch yourself awake. Begin while you are still lying in bed. Imagine that you're a cat: stretch, reaching out with all your limbs and waking up your muscles. Bring your knees to your chest to stretch out your back. Even after you get out of bed, give your muscles time to wake up properly. Be gentle with your body. Walk out to the balcony. Take in the early-morning sights and sounds - let nature give your senses a little nudge. When you feel somewhat more awake, try walking around the house, swing your arms a bit, spot-jog for a few minutes, stretch a little more... By now you should be feeling definitely more alert, and ready to take on the day! A little indulgence... gets you going a long way. To stop thinking of mornings as the worst part of the day, start the day by doing something you really enjoy. Put your favourite tune on the stereo. Take an extra-long shower, and sing right through. Tumble around with your kids. Go and admire your favourite potted plant. Read a few pages of a book you're enjoying (yes, we know the morning newspapers are likely to make you want to go right back to the bed). Eat breakfast. Don't skip it. And don't rush through two cups of coffee and imagine that's enough to fuel your body till lunch time. It's not. A good (not heavy, and not fat-laden) breakfast will give you a morning boost and rev you up for the day. Make sure nothing else is bothering you. Remember John and the workload awaiting him each day in the office? Anxiety about this workload is probably a factor that keeps John awake at nights or enables him to have only is restless, fitful sleep. It's also probably the reason he drags himself awake and then drags himself to work - whether he consciously recognises it or not, he does not want to face that growing workpile. John should catch up with his workload - or get a new, less-demanding job. As long as he fails to confront what's a really bothering him, he's going to have trouble getting up. Understand - what go along with - your own sleep-wake cycle. In Natasha's case, the fact that her early-morning activity doesn't wake her up, might just mean one thing - she's an 'owl' (someone whose body would prefer to miss mornings but can stay in high gear till quite late in the night). 'Owls' are opposed to 'larks' - those naturally early risers. Since Natasha can run on well into the night, she should try to complete some of her early-morning chores the previous night itself - such as ironing and laying out the children's school clothes. The Idea is to Boost Wellness.
