I love to go to the hair salon and get my hair cut and styled. It’s a treat that always makes me feel great. My appointment this past Monday was wonderful, as usual. Not only did I have a nice chat with Colleen, my hairdresser, but I left with the happiness of knowing that I wouldn’t really have to fuss over my hair for the next few days.
Taking care of hair can definitely take some time in your day. Here are a few shortcuts I use to minimize time invested with my hair.
1) I go to the gym nearly every day. If I don’t want to wash my hair when I get home, I use a scrunchie to get it off my neck while I’m working out.
2) If I feel like my hair needs to be ‘freshened’ when I get back from the gym, I use a dry shampoo that I picked up from my hair salon. I spray it on, leave it on for a few moments, and then use my hands to work it through my hair.
3) When I do wash my hair, (every other day) I generally do so at night after dinner when I know I’m going to be home for the evening. This way, I can let it air dry for a few hours, and then just blow dry it for a minute or two before bed if needed.
4) I shower every day, but I wear a shower cap on those days I don’t want my hair to get wet. Once I dry off after my shower, the shower cap is removed and I use some hair product to spruce my hair up a bit.
5) My morning hair routine is comprised of either pulling my hair back in a ponytail (if I’m going to the gym or coming back home afterwards, or simply planning to work behind my desk in the office) OR using the flat iron to straighten it out (if I’m going to a business meeting or meeting a friend for lunch, for example). On the days I use the flat iron, that adds about 15 minutes or so to my morning routine, so I plan accordingly.
6) If I know a special occasion day is coming up, I call my salon and make an appointment to just have my hairdresser wash, dry and style it. It’s one less thing to worry about on those days when it’s very important that your hair looks nice.

Did you over-indulge over the holidays? I know I did. I have yet to meet a person who can resist those wonderful, rich foods of the season.
But now that the holidays have come and gone, one of the top new year’s resolutions so many of us have is taking off those extra pounds.
And I know the perfect way to do just that!
There’s a resource on the Web–a free video–that is chock full of information to not only help with those nasty excess pounds, BUT to also change your thinking about why the so-called ‘healthy’ foods you’re eating may be stopping you from reaching your weight goals.
I, for one, certainly do not want to eat carrots and celery, just to look good. Life is too short to not enjoy delicious foods.
That’s why I loved all of the valuable information on this video. It was very down-to-earth, made perfect sense AND was filled with information to help you look and feel great all year long and thereafter–without depriving yourself of delicious foods.

I recently attended a local health fair in town. It cost me $10.00, but it was well worth it. During the first hour, I was able to take part in a number of services including a mini-manicure, mini-pedicure, hand paraffin dip, blood pressure check, cholesterol check, bra fitting and mini-facial.
The second hour consisted of a healthy, filling, delicious lunch and seminars about preventative health, such as health screens, diet and nutrition. I went with a good friend of mine and we both enjoyed this event, along with the other 100 or so attendees.
If you’re invited to a similar type of health fair in your town, definitely check it out. You’re bound to leave with some information that can help you or someone you know. Plus, you’ll be reminded of lots of preventative measures you can take to help you live as healthy as possible. Sometimes, we all need a reminder–especially since it’s so easy to get busy and forget to take care of ourselves.
In the meantime, be organized when it comes to your health. Schedule regular health screenings on your calendar. Plan your dinners so you don’t have to order out that often. Get in a minimum of 30 minutes of exercise each day. Give yourself enough time in the morning so you don’t feel you have to skip breakfast. Schedule time in your day that’s non-work time–time just for you to relax and re-energize.
Take care of your health–it’s the most important thing you can do for yourself.
