For attractive lips, speak words of kindness
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; Never throw out anybody.
Remember, If you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
The beauty of a women is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!

Weekend Shenanigans in Malibu
My favorite nutritionist Jen Katz and I had the BEST weekend in Malibu. After lunch at Gjelina's in Venice, we headed up to Malibu for the night. We woke up to clear skies and headed straight to the beach!

Your Mission 08.26.11
Your weekend mission,
should you choose to accept
1) Go an afternoon without technology. Go ahead... leave the house and enjoy a cup of coffee with a friend cell phone free.
2) Give 3 genuine compliments.
3) Give the gift of experience, not stuff. This weekend, choose a loved one and think of an experience you can give them. A date with you, doing something fun, hanging out, cooking, playing, talking, playing games, exploring, a fun time at a park or beach. Something other than everyday shenanigans. An experience is much more meaningful than an object and it also builds connectedness which can keep you happy, healthy and young at heart.

Tree Hugging Now Scientifically Proven
Tree hugging, that much maligned hippy generation idea, has now been shown to have scientific validity after all. Contrary to popular belief, touching a tree does make you healthier. In fact you don’t even have to touch the tree to get better, just being within its vicinity has the same effect.
In a in recent publications, Blinded by Science, the author Matthew Silverstone, proves scientifically that trees improve many health issues such as; mental illnesses, ADHD, concentration levels, reaction times, depression and the ability to alleviate headaches.
Countless studies have shown that children show significant psychological and physiological effects in terms of their health and well being when they interact with plants. They demonstrate that children function better cognitively and emotionally in green environments and have more creative play in green areas. Read more...
