What Good is

E

Gratitude?

specially around this time of year we have frequent reminders to be thankful, and to count our blessings. But what good is gratitude?

divided volunteers into two groups. In one group he asked them to keep a “gratitude journal” – to list 5 things for which they are thankful each day. He then asked the other group to keep a “complaint journal” – to list 5 things which aggravated them each day. At the end of 3 weeks he evaluated their blood pressure, and asked them questions about their health and happiness. He found that the grateful group had about 10% lower blood pressure, had exercised more, had fewer aches, slept longer, and awakened more refreshed than the complaint group.

It turns out that being thankful has lots of benefits. It helps us to feel more positive, have better relationships, and helps our health. So on Thursday when you sit down to that turkey dinner, take a moment to list 5 things for which you are grateful. Then continue that practice every day. Happy Thanksgiving!

1. Having an attitude of gratitude allows us to celebrate the present. Did you pause today to notice the beauty of the sky?

The warmth in the smile of your child? The magic in having drinkable water in hot or cold with the turn of a faucet? Being thankful for the wonders that are all around us lets us focus on all of the good things we have, rather than what aggravates us.

2. Gratitude strengthens social ties. Gratitude has been called a “relationship strengthening emotion” because it helps us to think well of others. If you are thankful for a good meal, it causes you to think positively of the one who prepared it, or the one who worked to earn the money to buy it. If you are grateful for the beauty of a tiny flower or a grand old tree, you improve your relationship with Nature or the Creator who caused it to be.

3. Being grateful improves your health. A psychologist named Dr. Emmons has done a series of simple experiments. He randomly

Iggy Azalea Biography

relocating to Los Angeles. A video for her song “Pu$$y� was uploaded to the Internet and became a YouTube favorite due to its explicit nature.

In pursuit of her desire of moving to America, Azalea dropped out of high school; instead choosing to work and save the money she earned by cleaning hotel rooms and holiday houses with her mother. She claims

In one of the more unlikely crossover success stories, blonde Australian beauty Iggy Azalea (born Amethyst Amelia Kelly) segued from a high-profile modeling career to become a Southern hip-hop star. Influenced in her childhood

by Missy Elliott, TLC, and Tupac Shakur, she absorbed the Southern-style drawl of her surroundings and released a trap-inspired mixtape titled Ignorant Art in 2011, shortly after

to have hated school, which, besides her art class, only made her miserable. She also said she had no friends and was teased for her homemade outfits.She moved to the United States in 2006 at age 16, stating that she was drawn to the birthplace of rap. Moving from Miami to Houston to Atlanta She told her parents she was going “on a holiday” with a friend, but eventually decided to stay and shortly after told them she was not coming back home.

Quotes: “I do absolutely nothing, actually, believe it or not.

People will probably hate me for saying that, but I guess I’m one of those lucky horrible people who, no matter what I eat, I don’t gain a pound. My whole family is just like that. They’re all skinny and tall, and I guess, so am I.” “My real name is Amethyst. It sounds like a stage name. My mom is kind of crazy.”

“I think stupid people are surprised that I’m Australian. It’s a small-minded; we live in a global community, but I suppose some people still are smallminded.”

Cuidados

Para El Cabello Teñido

L

uego de aplicar el tinte se debe dejar el cuero cabelludo al aire, pues si se cubre, no permitirá que se oxigene correctamente la coloración y además, el cuero cabelludo producirá sudoración que alterará el resultado del tinte.

Cuidados luego de la coloración: Una semana después de la coloración, lavamos el cabello con el shampoo para cabello teñido.

Luego secamos con toalla y aplicamos un baño de crema a partir de los 2cm desde la raíz, hacia las puntas. Envolvemos el cabello con una toalla caliente o con gorra de baño y pasamos el secador durante diez minutos.

Luego enjuagamos. Repetir cada quince o veinte días. También están los aceites y reparadores de puntas, que son más efectivos que los baños de crema.

Para cabellos teñidos constantemente: Uno de los peores enemigos del cabello teñido es el sol. En temporada de playa, es conveniente cubrir el cabello o usar productos protectores que se aplican antes de la exposición al sol y que actúan filtrando los rayos UV. Luego del sol, aplicaremos mascarillas suavizantes o productos de cuidados postsolares.

El secador de pelo maltrata también el cabello teñido. El uso ocasional de mascarillas de miel o limón, protege de los efectos del aire caliente.

El uso de cepillos de cerdas naturales evita el frisado del cabello y menor maltrato que el de cerdas sintéticas.

La coloración rubia, en cualquiera de sus tonos, se ve afectada por los rayos UV y por el cloro de las piscinas, pudiendo tomar tonalidades verdosas. Para evitarlo, es recomendable el uso de sombrero o gorra en la playa y en la piscina.

Y Bueno esperando que estos consejos te sea de utilidad, recuerda, que cada organismo es diferente y muy atenta ante cualquier irritación, porque como son productos químicos, cuidado que nos salga más caro el cambio de look.
