Behind every great woman there are about three or four other great women. Since before the history books were written, women have come together to share wisdom, support and even resources.
And while modern life and luxuries may have eliminated many of our needs for support, no amount of technological “advances” can take away from our need to connect, share, and inspire one another. In fact, it’s quite the opposite:
In celebration of International Women’s Day, the biggest WISH there’s ever been is coming true. On March 8, 2010, women from all around the globe are invited to attend W.I.S.H., the Women’s International Summit for Health - a series of free on-line interviews with leading health and wellness experts who answer the most pressing questions faced by women today.
For 10 days, thousands of women will come together to hear the stories and share the wisdom of a star-studded list of 40 speakers. Exploring the subjects of sensuality, spirit, food, and relationships as much as fitness, beauty, health, money, attitude and family.
Whether it’s the kids, the cellulite, the hot flashes or steamy romances, W.I.S.H. brings women together to find the solutions and to recharge their batteries.
Register free before March 8, 2010 and join us for the world’s biggest empowerment party EVER!
Wishfully yours,

Hello everyone! I now have two months under my belt in my 365 days of smoothies challenge. I can not wait for spring to hit as I’m getting a little tired of frozen fruit and I’m longing for all of those luxurious greens that are so abundant at our local farmer’s market each year.

Treat yourself to a candlelit bubble bath tonight. Take a glass of sparkling water with a slice of lemon into the bath with you. Slap on a face mask. I have a friend who swears by honey. She simply rubs a spoonful of the stuff over her face, avoiding the eyes and mouth areas, leaves for a short while, and then rinses off. She has a radiant, even complexion. Add a couple of cucumber slices over your eyes, and you’ll look good enough to eat!

Before I got serious about going raw, I didn’t give any real thought to the fact that the skin is the largest organ of the body. I’ve since realized that as a major organ of your body, what you put on it should be given some importance. It might not be the same as ingestion through the mouth, but your skin gives and takes nutrients and harmful substances, and it should be accorded appropriate consideration. Vibrant skin is the result of a healthy body, and no chemical process or makeup can be a substitute for healthy skin.

There haven’t been extensive studies on the medicinal value of this herb, but it’s been used with great affect by people for several conditions which afflict the liver including cirrhosis, jaundice, hepatitis, and gallbladder disorders.

Today I woke up feeling refreshed and wanted to do something extra special for my skin. I love the smell of apples as they simmer, they remind me of the holidays so I decided to create a skin refiner (exfoliant) that will leave your skin feeling simply marvelous.
Yogurt is a cultured product made from the natural bacterial fermentation of milk. Fermentation of the milk sugar (lactose) produces lactic acid which is an alpha hydroxy acid. Used in skin care treatments, lactic acid has the ability to digest skin cells and improve the texture of skin making it one of the best alpha hydroxy acids for sensitive skin. Yogurt is an effective ingredient in skin care treatments and allows the outer layers of your skin to release and shed over a few days, stimulating new cell growth in the skin’s deepest layers. With its natural antibacterial and antifungal agents, it assists in getting rid of germs and bacteria that plague the skin.
