Change begins with YOU

 Times are always changing and so must we. We don’t have to change ourselves to be like the people of this world, but be changed within by a new way of thinking (Romans 12:2 NCV). 

When you first decided to get a job as a teen, your mindset was totally different from how you see things now, as an adult. Back then, you wanted to have a few dollars in your pocket and didn’t realize what you were doing. But now, you understand that your work ethics were and maybe still are used to build someone else’s dream business. Think about that for a minute.

Isn’t time for you to build your own dreams. This doesn’t suggest that you quit your job , that is covering your living expenses and lifestyle. Just consider start a business that will provide, should your boss let you go.

Menstrual Cups are a Life Changer

Getting our monthly cycle is a blessing. However, sometimes it can be so heavy that it is unbearable. It's important to track your cycle, so that you know what your normal is. One of the first questions you are asked at your doctors/ urgent care is " When was your last menstrual cycle?". With this app you will no longer have to guess, when it was and how long it was.

When a young woman begins her menstrual as a teen, it usually doesn't start off heavy but over the years our cycle change. As I got older, I noticed that my cycle changed according to what I ate. If I ate meat the week before or during my cycle, the flow would be heavy and full of blood clots. If I ate raw foods , then my flow was lighter. I now make it a habit to eat plant based and vegan dishes, so that I don't have a heavy cycle.

My cycles were so heavy I had to use tampons , maxi pads , bed protectors and I have to take 2-3 iron tablets to slow down the menstrual flow every day during my cycle. After my cycle, I take 1-2 iron tablets so that I can replenish the blood loss during my cycle.

My life did not change until I started using a menstrual cup . My first day is normally just spotting, 2nd day the flow is light pink, the 3rd and 4th day is a steady flow (menstrual cup time) 5th day it starts to slow down. Because I have fibroids, my cycle can last up to 14 days but it's mostly spotting not a constant flow.

 I created a kit to help others with normal to heavy menstrual, get through their month cycle and maintain vaginal health. The love kit has 100+ items, which includes all your natural (chemical and dye free) monthly supplies, vaginal cleansing herbs, herbal teas, moisturizing cream to keep her fresh.

GoldDiggers

Sherri Shepherd is one of my favorite comedian, actress and television personality. I can remember when she announced her engagement to Lamar Sally. I thought she was Happy but now that I'm reading about this divorce, I feel he married her to get her money. Soon after her first divorce in (09), Lamar started to plot on her. Sad!!! And the surrogate (someone He was already with) was in on it too. Why do I say that? Because guess where They say He is now, with the surrogate. Here's the trifling part....He's with the baby's mother. He filed divorce. He wants child support from Sherri to take care of their baby. Heck No!!!

Now, I have raised 4 children and it Did not cost me 10k-20k a month to raise them. So, why does He think she should pay him 10k a month? Now according to IMDB.com, Lamar is known for his work on Rodney and It's my time to talk. Ahhhhh, He used her as a come up.

According to dailyentertainmentnews.com, after their 2011 wedding, a report surfaced that Lamar was still close with an ex-girlfriend and He had invited her to his wedding to Shepherd. He never mentioned to Sherri that They were former lovers.
I hope things workout in her favor.

Understanding Natural Hair

I recently read an internet blog about things that naturals should do. When I first read it, I immediately thought, the writer must not be natural. Why do I think that? Because the writer suggest that naturals need to wash the hair once a week. However, she is a natural. Who would've thought?


First let me say, we wash clothes. We shampoo hair. If we (naturals) shampooed our hair once a week, it would strip our hair of it's natural oils. The writer then says that they make facial expression when they hear that naturals shampoo their hair once 3-4 times a week. NO, our hair is not dirty for a month, as we co-wash with conditioner. It's called co-washing and it still cleanses our hair but using conditioner instead of shampoo keeps our hair soft, moisturized and does not strip it's natural oil. We can co-wash our hair 1-2 times a week.


The writer suggest that naturals should wash their bonnet. Whether you are natural or relaxed, a clean satin/silk bonnet and pillowcase is essential to avoid hair breakage. That's a no brainer.


Next, the writer said that naturals need to clean your hair products. She showed a picture with hair in a product. I agree, that's nasty but I don't know anyone that has hair balls in their products. No one moisturizes or saves balls of hair in their product. Some do save the hair that has come out during detangling in a plastic ziplock bag to do patch/strand test, if they decide to color (not dye) their hair.


I'm not sure what blogs, social media pages or pictures, she has seen but I think most naturals take care of their hair the best they can. Of course, with proper education and a regimen, they can grow and maintain healthy hair. Organic Hair & Health Spa specializes in natural hair, offers private one on one consultations, educates you on at home maintenance in between salon appointment and has mobile service. Call Organic to schedule an appointment at 443-631-0616.


I hope this gives you a better understanding of how naturals take care of their hair. We Shampoo, Condition, Deep Condition with a Moisturizer or Protein Treatment, and Seal in the Moisture before styling our hair. At night, we sleep with a clean silk bonnet on a satin pillowcase, like relaxed hair should. Being natural just takes more time to style your hair but I wouldn't trade my natural hair for anything. I've been natural for over 20 years and I love it.

Homemade Foam Soap

I've sure had a lot of extra time on my hand  to research and experiment with somethings. When you adapt to a healthy lifestyle, you begin to evaluate people, places and things that are around you. I started making my own febreeze , due to my daughter and I allergies. Soon afterwards, I began making body scrubs, lip balm and anything natural I could think of.

Today is a snow day so I decided to make some foaming hand soap to put at each sink. Who wants to spend $4.79 on foaming hand soap, at local retailers? Not this #FrugalDIVAH. So, I filled my container with pump almost to the top with hot water. Next, add 2 tbsp of liquid castile soap ($3.25 DIVAH BOUTIQUE ). Then add 1/2 of Sweet Almond oil ($8, DIVAH BOUTIQUE) and any essential oil for a nice scent. Screw on top , change it up and you're ready to wash away.

Start your own Business

Have you always wanted to start
your own business, but didn't know where to start.

1. Write down your gifts and talents.
Then write how you can earn money using them.
We should make plans-counting on God to direct us. (Proverbs 16:9)

2. Start Researching. Work hard now to reap your harvest later.
All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to proverty. (Proverbs 14:23)

3. Find a Mentor to guide you.
Hold on to instruction, do not let it go; guard it well, for it is your life.
(Proverbs 4:13)

4. Work hard and become a leader; be lazy and never succeed.
(Proverbs 12:24)

5. Write your vision and make it plain. (Habakkuk 2:2)

Next, you should pray about it and start your business plan.

Lee Thompson Young and Mental Illness



Lee Thompson Young who starred as Jett Jackon on Disney was found dead with what appeared as an self inflicted gun shot wound to the head, in his LA apartment by his landlord, after he failed to show up to work on Monday, August 19th. Lee had a very promising career, as an actor. He was currently working as a detective on TNT's "Rizzoli & Isles" as Detective Barry Frost. 

 

 

At 29 years young, he had already accomplished so much. I can only imagine the pressures he has had ,as a young handsome successful actor. So, why commit sucide? Who knows what he was thinking or going through. Many people successful or not suffer from Mental Illness, it's a silent killer. Contrary to belief, everyone who commits suicide is not a drug abuser. Some are born with mental illness like biopolar and schizophrenia. Anxiety is a silent killer. Many suffer from it and don't know that they have it. Thus, they use over the counter medicines, herbal treatments or are misdiagnosed.

 

Take the time to talk to your love ones and take a love one to the doctors if you suspect that they maybe going through something. Let's keep Lee Thompson Young family in our prayers.
