stress-ley to smiley

i'm stress-ley..n i need help!!!

are u like stress-ley? dun worry..continue to read on n i hope the tips im about to share with u will help..

• wen ur like stress-ley, take long deep breaths

• take regular breaks from work

• get regular exercise approximately 20 minutes, 3 times a week

• eat a balanced diet

• avoid caffeine, which is a stimulant

• avoid depending on drugs and alcohol to help you relax. This can become a crutch

• learn time management and organization skills (i need this MOST!!)
  

• use humour to lighten difficult moments

• seek the positive in every situation..view adversity as an opportunity for learning and growth

• do not bury ur emotions..it is a temporary fix at best..unresolved emotions can cause nightmares and physical illness

• give compliments freely and smile often..you'll b amazed how the mood around u will change and how in turn u will feel better

• learn to really listen to wat others are saying rather than getting upset because u disagree..seek to find areas of common ground and work for a compromise

other special tips:

• scented candles, soft music and a hot bath is a great way to relax after a long day of work

• herbs such as valerian and kava kava help relaxation

• meditation and biofeedback training can be an excellent way to control your body's response to stress
  

i hope after reading this and PRACTISING it..u wil look like smiley... =)

happy and joyful smiley!!

✎ dedicated to my buddy n bffs..

as i lay me down,
heaven hear me now,
im lost without a cause,
after giving it my all

winter storms have come,
and darkened my sky,
after all that i've been through,
who on earth can i turn to?

**chorus**
i look to u,
i look to u,
after all my strength is gone,
in u i can b strong

i look to u,
i look to u,
and wen melodies are gone,
in u i hear a song,
i look to u
*********

about to lose my breath,
there's no more fighting left,
sinking to rise no more,
searching for that open door

and every road that i've taken,
led to my regret,
and i dun noe if im gonna make it,
nothing to do but lift my head

**chorus**

my levee's have broken,
my walls have come,
crumbling down on me,
the rain is falling,
defeat is calling,
i need u to set me free

take me far away from the battle,
i need u,
shine on me

**chorus**

i look to u,
i look to u....

this song is so beautiful..i dedicate this song especially to my buddy n oso to my best frens especially gelyn n my hsemates..i love the sentence sung.. "after all my strength is gone..in u i can b strong"... ☺

wan healthy shining hair???

1) Maintain a Healthy Diet

• our diet shud include green, leafy vege, whole grain cereals, eggs n raisins..
• hair is made our of protein..therefore our diet shud haf rich protein..
• wheat n liver contains vitamin B too which is an important nutrient for hair..
• outer coverings of cucumbers, potatoes and green and red peppers are high in silica..it can strenghten our hair..
• vitamin E promotes hair growth n minimize hair fall..

2) Washing Routine

• oily hair - wash more often
• never use water that is too hot or too cold to wash hair
• while cleaning or massaging ur scalp, you shud use your fingertips not a hard brush

3) Proper Combing

• use a wide tooth comb
• come downward so that u ensure that u are not breaking any hair
• avoid coming wet hair because its the weakest wen its wet

4) Drying Your Hair

• the heat from a dryer can cause your hair to look coarse and lifeless

5) Use of Shampoo and Conditioner

• use simple formulated shampoo..the cheap ones are the most effective..
• follow the basic purpose which is the cleanse the dirt and oil..choose a milder one
• use conditioner..but do not over conditioned it..

6) Using a Good Conditioner

• your conditioner mus b able to protect your hair from chlorine, sea water n sun

7) Avoid using Harsh Chemicals

• avoid colouring more than one in 2-4 months..(no bleaching if possible)
  

8) Limit the use of Alcohol and Smoking

• alcohol and tobacco causes hair to become dry, brittle and prone to breakage

9) Sleeping Pattern Controls Hair Loss

• Restless sleep causes hair to break
• if you are a restless sleeper..it is gud to use a satin pillow case so that your hair move smoothly causing less breakage
• comb your hair gently before goin to bed and gently remove bands and clips during the day
