Aromatherapy for a Broken Heart

6,709 Views POSTED ON January 30th, 2010ADD COMMENTS

The heart is a very fragile and strong organ. It is the center of our being and a very vulnerable focal point. The heart plays a role in every function of the body. It can be “hurt”, “lost” and left in San Francisco. It can also “skip a beat” or be attacked by a stroke. Our heart is our life force and in Chinese medicine it is the fire element. Yet it can “fail” us, as in heart failure. The heart has rhythm and can block, just not in a football game. Sometime, our heart talks to us with sounds and murmurs. There are some people who listen to their hearts speak to them while others have not listened and may have taken a path of least resistance. There is time, however, that we all listen when our heart speaks to us. That time is when there is what is called a broken heart.

When the heart is broken, a spectrum of feelings is manifested. These feelings consist of hurt, pain, anger, sadness, relief and forgiveness. In the process of living with these feelings and going through the experience of having a broken heart, what happens physically and emotionally to women?

Anemia During Pregnancy

Anemia during pregnancy is most commonly caused by an iron deficiency. Being tested for anemia early in your pregnancy is a good idea, but may not be enough, since anemia may still develop as your pregnancy progresses.

Although anemia is caused by an iron deficiency in your body, you will not need to worry too much about your baby, since he will be sure to get as much iron from you as he needs. Your baby will only be in danger of suffering from anemia if the situation is completely ignored.
Anemia should be easily identifiable in the blood tests that you take frequently throughout your pregnancy. The baby will start drawing on your iron reserves much more heavily around week 20, so you may develop anemia later in your pregnancy. Common symptoms of anemia during pregnancy include:

I don’t know a thing about you, but I’ll bet that deciding on what size breast implants you want now that you have decided on breast surgery, scares you to death? Nobody wants to look “Plastic Fantastic”, but we all want to look great!

Choosing the size you want to be is often one of the biggest decisions you will need to make. It is important to take the time to decide what you’ll be happy with. I know that as the time got closer to my surgery day, I found myself doing what probably comes naturally to most men - I became a breast watcher! Until then I had no idea of the many different shapes and sizes that existed. It sure made me realise what I did NOT want!

A good surgeon will be able to judge from your frame, and especially your height, approximately what will be the best size for you. It makes sense that the taller you are, the larger implant you can have without it looking wrong. However, the decision is ultimately yours.

First Dates, Skip the Movie and Popcorn

A common and popular first date is going to a movie and sharing some popcorn. But while you want the date to be fun, your purpose here is not entertainment. The reason for a first date with anyone is to see whether you want to date them a second time. The whole dating process is a screening process to help you find that special someone. As a way of getting to know someone, going to the movies is actually a poor choice for first dates. Close together, but not talking! That is like having sex on the first date. If your partners’ opinions are childish, he is probably not mature enough for a long-term relationship. Is he willing to compromise? Does he respect your preferences or laugh at them. When he chooses a blood-and-guts movie over your comedy film, ask him why he finds that kind of movie interesting.

Dating Tip: Getting a Commitment

177 Views POSTED ON January 12th, 2010ADD COMMENTS

A lot of women want to know how to get a man to commit.

Even though we know better, we still believe (consciously or subconsciously) that our purpose in life is to get a man to fork over a two-carat diamond and a house in the suburbs. At the dawn of 2006, this is still perceived as the pinnacle of success for women.

As a result, too many of us stay in relationships that don’t make us happy. We tell ourselves that if we say the right thing, do the right thing, buy the right thing, we can get some guy to marry us and validate us in the eyes of our friends, our parents, and society.

We play games with our sexuality. We submit to unnecessary surgeries and wear clothing that make us candidates for pneumonia, all in an effort to hook a man. We have sex not because it’s what we want, but because we want to keep a guy’s interest. We stop having sex when he doesn’t come forth with a ring because, as our mothers told us, “Why buy the cow when the milk’s free?”

Should Your Underwear Match Your Bra?

Most women understand there are definite color combinations that work from a fashion sense when it comes to one’s outfits. Ah, but what about the foundation garments? Should your underwear match your bra or is it really not that big a deal?

Presented with the question of whether panties and bras should match, most women would automatically say they should and rightly so. We are taught from a young age that outfits much match. Surely this applies to our undergarments as well, right? Right? Still, the question bears some consideration. Although your undergarments should always match, there is room to broaden the exact meaning of “match.”
