STROKE CAN OCCUR AT ANY AGE
When the topic of stroke comes up, people are likely to picture an adult victim. Sadly, this is not always the case. Teenagers, children, newborns – even unborn babies can also suffer a stroke. It remains one of the top 10 causes of death in children. A child’s risk of stroke is greatest in the first year of life, and during the period right before birth to right after birth. According to the National Stroke Association, stroke occurs in one in 4,000 live births. The risk of stroke from birth to age 18 is almost 11 in 100,000; though they are slightly more common in children under age 2.
RISK FACTORS Adults tend to be at higher risk for stroke because they have high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat and/or a hardening of the arteries. Pediatric stroke risks are much different, and include: • Congenital heart defects • Sickle-cell disease • Abnormal blood clotting • Head or neck trauma • Maternal history of infertility • Maternal infection in the fluid surrounding an unborn baby • Pregnancy-related high blood pressure in the mother SIGNS & SYMPTOMS Many times, recognition of stroke is delayed or missed in children. The most common signs and symptoms of stroke in newborns and infants are: • Seizures, including repetitive twitching of the face, arm or leg • Apnea (pauses in breathing) associated with staring • Extreme sleepiness • A tendency to use only one side of their body
With children and teens, look for • Weakness or numbness of the face, arm or leg, usually on one side of the body • Severe dizziness or loss of coordination • Severe sudden headache, especially with vomiting and sleepiness • Difficulty speaking or understanding others • Vision loss or double vision • New onset of seizures, usually on one side of the body.
Although stroke symptoms for children and teens are similar to those of adult stroke, the signs are often missed because of lack of awareness that stroke can occur at such a young age. For more information about pediatric stroke, talk with your pediatrician.

H ISTORYM I A M I M U S E U M’ S NE W E X H I B IT I O N FEATURING ‘STREET TRADITIONS’ THAT MAKE MIAMI UNIQUE OPENS TO A CROWD OF OVER 500
H
istoryMiami Museum launched its exhibition, Avenues of Expression: Street Traditions in Miami, with the support of the National Endowment for the Arts. This one-of-a-kind exhibition opened to a crowd of 500 guests at an opening reception on Friday, March 16, 2018 from 6-9 p.m. Through artifacts, video interviews, interactive displays and recreated environments, the exhibition inspires visitors to get street smart and discover the world around them. The ten-month exhibition is open to the public now through Sunday, January 13, 2019. The launch party kicked off with cocktails by Tito’s Handmade Vodka, “Miami Style” bites and entertainment from DJ Le Spam as 25 tall bikes circled the event. The tall bikes are one of the many features of the actual exhibit showcasing slices of character seen on the streets of Miami. A 20 person Junkanoo band flooded the plaza, energizing the crowd and playing their instruments as hundreds of onlookers snapped photos, streamed live on Facebook and Instagram and danced to the Bahamian beats. The Bahamas Junkanoo Revue of Miami’s colorful costumes are on proud display at the entry way of the exhibition which highlights other Miami art and traditions, including a cafecito machine, murals by some of the city’s most well-known street artists, muffler art and clothing worn by well-known drag queen Tiffany Fantasia, as well as visuals of vehicle customization, parades, religious practices and items focusing on political and social issues affecting South Florida and more.
Throughout the exhibition, visitors are invited to pick up a phone and listen to stories told from the people highlighted in the exhibition. For example, Fantasia speaks of a confrontation with a preacher on the streets of Miami during a Gay Pride Parade while street muralist Serge Toussaint explains how his family finally supported his craft as an artist only after he appeared on CNN painting a mural. “Miami is the ultimate melting pot and the street traditions seen throughout the exhibition show we are unique and have flavor like no other city. From items that surround a home showcasing religious beliefs to 30 foot high murals on the side of a building to focusing on a legendary Coconut Grove ‘”Icees” vendor in one of the original food trucks in the nation, we have a collection that can only be seen across the streets of South Florida,” said Jorge Zamanillo, Executive Director of HistoryMiami Museum. “It’s all the slices of Miami in one location like never seen before.” This exciting new exhibition allows visitors to discover the street traditions hiding in plain sight on Miami’s avenues, where the vibrant, raw pulse that fuels this city is felt the most and where Miami’s diverse communities converge and interact. It also highlights the people who bring creativity and meaning to these practices, all of which help to give Miami its unique mix of characteristics and identities. “Avenues of Expression” is open through January 13, 2019, at HistoryMiami, 101 W. Flagler St., Miami; 305-375-1942; historymiami. org. Admission costs $10, or $8 for students and seniors, $5 for children ages 6 to 12, and free to museum members and kids under 6.

Valentina Munevar
PIONERA DE LA TÉCNICA DEL CAMUFLAJE DE ESTRÍAS
T
odos podemos identificarnos con algún complejo físico, aunque tratemos de aceptarlo, nunca sentiremos la misma confianza que si pudiéramos deshacernos de este. Las estrías son uno de los ejemplos mas nombrados entre estos complejos físicos. Valentina Munevar se convierte en la salvación de este problema al ser la pionera de la técnica del Camuflaje de Estrías en los Estados Unidos desapareciendolas permanentemente en tan solo una sesión de 1 hasta 4 horas. Valentina nos explica que la piel es el órgano más grande del cuerpo y pasa por cambios constantes como pérdida o aumento de peso abrupto: embarazos, aumento de masa muscular, entre otros. Como consecuencia de estos surgen las estrías. Con la técnica del camuflaje de estrías, Valentina rellena el área con un componente traslúcido en los lugares adecuados, creando la ilusión óptica de una piel impecable. Como pionera en esta técnica, Valentina devuelve las esperanzas de un cuerpo “libre de estrías ”. Su vasta experiencia en el campo de la cosmetología, la renombrada técnica de micropigmentación y muchos otros adelantos cosméticos hacen que Valentina se convierta en la persona idónea para emplear esta innovadora técnica. Donde nace esta técnica? La técnica fue creada por el reconocido brasileiro Rodolpho Torres hace aproximadamente 6 años. Donde se estudió y experimentó por 5 años antes de lanzarla al mercado garantizando la efectividad y seguridad de la misma. Afortunadamente, todo su conocimiento y los mejores consejos se los paso a Valentina siendo él su mentor. Como en muchos casos, la alumna supero al maestro y Valentina se convierte en toda una experta en la técnica combinándola con su experiencia médica y su propia investigación mejorando esta novedosa técnica del camuflaje de estrías siendo ella la única especialista en Estados Unidos en este procedimiento ¡Es por esto que puedes decirle adiós a las estrías! Esas, que han sido por mucho tiempo una gran molestia tanto para mujeres como para hombres ya tienen solución y en tan solo una sesión se obtiene un resultado permanente. No hay necesidad de retoque para conservar los excelentes resultados de esta técnica.

KATIE ANGE L ¿DE DONDE NACE TU INTERÉS POR CREAR UNA COMUNIDAD EN YOUTUBE? Sinceramente, nunca me imaginé haciendo videos de Youtube. Siempre he sido gran Fan de Youtube, pero, extrañamente, no fue sino hasta después de culminar mi carrera como Médico, motivada por "el Oso", quien me dijo que debía compartir mis talentos y experiencias con el mundo, que empecé a darme cuenta de lo bonito que podía llegar a ser compartir con tanta gente a través de la pantalla, y que Youtube sería una ventana maravillosa para compartir mis experiencias y conocimientos con otros. ¿ALGUNA VEZ TE IMAGINASTE EL IMPACTO QUE CREARÍAS EN LA VIDA DE TUS SEGUIDORES? Jamás. A veces me siento en un sueño del que no quiero despertar. Es increíble el poder que tienen las redes sociales y como a través de una pantalla puedes crear relaciones tan hermosas y reales con tantas personas alrededor del mundo. Youtube ha sido una ventana maravillosa para compartir mis experiencias y conocimientos con otros. Mi mayor satisfacción es poder inspirarlos y enseñarles a través de mis experiencias que todos los sueños, con esfuerzo y sacrificio se hacen realidad. ¿CUAL HA SIDO EL MAYOR DESAFÍO COMO MUJER EMPRENDEDORA O MUJER EN TECNOLOGÍA? Cuando decidí empezar a hacer videos en YouTube mi vida dio un giro de 360". Dejar mi carrera como médico, y dedicarme a las redes sociales, a grabar y editar yo misma mis videos, fue algo que jamás imaginé... como Influencer no sólo eres el creativo, sino también eres tu propio director, productor, editor, y no son horas, sino días y semanas de Photo by: Jóse Mago @magovisual 20 L I V E D O R A L M A G A Z I N E .

¿COMO FUE QUE EMPEZASTE EN LA MÚSICA? La música siempre ha formado parte esencial de mi vida. Tanto, que a los 4 años mi juguete favorito era una guitarra y un micrófono. Luego formé parte del coro de la iglesia y era la vocalista oficial, a los 14 años empecé a componer y desde entonces no he parado. ¿CUÉNTANOS SOBRE EL APOYO DE TU FAMILIA Y AMISTADES? Mi familia es mi pilar, mi apoyo incondicional. Mis padres siempre me han dado todo lo que ha estado dentro de sus posibilidades para impulsarme, y ayudarme a hacer mis sueños realidad. Hoy en día mi mano derecha es mi esposo, el Oso, mi compañero, mi cómplice y amigo, a quien le confío mis sueños, y juntos trabajamos duro para cumplir todas las metas que tenemos en común.

trabajo. Tuve que sentarme a investigar cómo grabar, cómo editar, fue muy cómico darme cuenta que, el único programa de edición que conocía era el “Windows Movie Maker” (risas), y todo lo aprendí solita viendo tutoriales de YouTube. Así que, como siempre digo: "El que quiere..¡Puede!" ¿CUAL ES TU PROCESO CREATIVO? Todo nace con una idea. Una vez que me decido a grabar el video, inmediatamente empiezan los preparativos. Cada video es una aventura diferente. Si es un video de back to school salgo a comprar materiales, si es un video de tips me pongo a pensar en ideas 22 L I V E D O R A L M A G A Z I N E . C O M
prácticas y las escribo, si es un cover tengo que practicar la canción. Lo que más disfruto es poder compartir diversidad de contenido, lo cual no sólo me divierte un montón, sino además me permite desarrollar diferentes habilidades, y además llegar a todo tipo de público. Luego llega el momento de grabar, lo cual dependiendo del video me puede tomar desde un par de horas hasta 1 día completo. Pero sinceramente editar es el proceso que conlleva más tiempo. Siempre he sido una persona muy detallista y perfeccionista, y sin importar la temática del video siempre doy mejor de mí, y me esfuerzo mucho en que mi contenido sea entretenido, y de calidad.

¿EN UN DÍA NORMAL QUE HACES ? Me gusta levantarme con una buena taza de café, abro todas las ventanas de mi casa porque amo con locura la luz, y esto automáticamente me pone de buen humor. Inmediamente me siento en la computadora y me pongo a revisar e-mails, y me voy por una ducha para disponerme a grabar, editar, asistir a algún evento, o lo que sea que tenga pendiente hacer. ¿CUÁL ES LA LECCIÓN MÁS IMPORTANTE QUE HAS APRENDIDO EN TU VIDA? Así como un día estas arriba, otro puedes estar abajo. Jamás subestimes el talento de otros, y por último, que el trabajo dignifica. ¿CÓMO EL FRACASO HA MOLDEADO TU VIDA? El fracaso me ha permitido valorar más el éxito, los momentos de plena felicidad, así que le agradezco mucho a Dios por los malos momentos, pues ellos también me hacen sentir viva.
hours, but days and weeks of work. I had to start out by researching how to record, and how to edit. It was very funny to realize that the only editing program I knew how to use was the "Windows Movie Maker" (she laughs), and I learned everything by watching YouTube tutorials. So, as I always say: "Whoever wants to achieve something ... Can definitely do it!"
WHERE DID YOUR INTEREST IN CREATING A COMMUNITY ON YOUTUBE COME FROM? Honestly, I never imagined making YouTube videos. I have always been a great YouTube fan, but, oddly enough, it was not until after I finished my medical career, that I was motivated by "the Bear" to do so. He was the one who told me that I should share my talents and experiences with the world, and it was then that I began to realize how nice it could be to share my experiences with so many people through the screen. I realized that YouTube would be a wonderful window to share my experiences and knowledge with others.
satisfaction is to be able to inspire them and teach them through my experiences that every single one of their dreams, with effort and sacrifice, may come true.
DID YOU EVER IMAGINE THE IMPACT YOU WOULD HAVE IN THE LIVES OF YOUR FOLLOWERS? Never. Sometimes it feels as if I am in a dream from which I don’t want to wake up. The power that social networks have is astounding and it is empowering to realize how through a screen you can create such beautiful and genuine relationships with so many people around the world. For me, YouTube has been a wonderful window to share my experiences and knowledge with others. My greatest
WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR BIGGEST CHALLENGE AS A WOMAN ENTREPRENEUR OR A WOMAN IN TECHNOLOGY? When I decided to start making videos on YouTube, my life took a 360-degree turn. Leaving my career as a doctor, and dedicating myself to social networks, recording and editing my videos myself, was something I never imagined ... as an Influencer not only are you the creative one, but you are also your own director, producer, editor, and it is not

WHAT IS YOUR CREATIVE PROCESS? Everything is born out of an idea. Once I decide to record the video, the preparations start immediately. Each video is a different adventure. If it is a video about back-to-school I go out to buy supplies, if it is a video about tips, I start thinking about practical ideas and I write them down; if it is a cover I have to practice the song. What I enjoy the most is being able to share a very diverse content, which not only makes me have a lot of fun, but also allows me to develop different skills, and reach all kinds of audiences. Then it's time to record, which depending on the video can take me from a couple of hours to a full day. But honestly editing is the process that takes the most time. I have always been very detail-oriented and consider myself to be a perfectionist, and regardless of the subject of the video I always give the best of myself. I put in a lot of effort to ensure that my content is entertaining and high-quality
IN A TYPICAL DAY, WHAT DO YOU DO? I like to start out with a good cup of coffee. Then, I open all the windows because I love light, and this automatically puts me in a good mood. Later, I sit down at the computer and start checking e-mails. Then I go take a shower and get ready to record, edit, attend an event, or do whatever I have to do. WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT LESSON YOU HAVE LEARNED IN YOUR LIFE? I’ve learned that just as one day you are up, the next one you can be down. Also, I never underestimate the talent of others, and finally, I believe that work dignifies. HOW HAS FAILURE MOLDED YOUR LIFE? Failure has allowed me to value success even more, as well as the moments of full happiness. But I thank God very much for the bad moments because they also make me feel alive.

Adhere to your child’s school’s rules and 5 policies. Be an example for your child to follow. Comply with all school rules and policies. This way your child feels that rules are meant to be followed. Rules and policies make everyone safe. This gives children a sense of safety. Just imagine what our society would be like if laws were not enforced. Motivate your child to express their 6 feelings and concerns. Dialogue with your child is extremely important. Have relaxed, open ended conversations with your child. The lines of communication must be open at all times. If your child feels comfortable talking to you about a variety of topics, research shows that sensitive topics will be addressed, which will help them avoid conflicts and uncomfortable situations.
How to Talk to Your CHILDREN about
SCHOOL SAFETY
K
nowing how to talk to your child about school safety issues is critical and plays an important role in easing their fears and anxiety about their own safety. The recent intense media coverage on school violence brings school safety to the forefront. Here are a few tips to guide you through your discussions about school safety with your child: Help your child understand that they are 1 not alone. It is important for children to recognize that you have feelings just like they do. They are not alone in trying to deal with their fears. Make them feel that you value their feelings. Help them to understand that serious school violence is not common, which is why when incidents occur they attract so much media attention. Keep your explanations developmentally 2 appropriate. For example, if your child is an elementary school student, provide them with brief and simple information.
24 L I V E D O R A L M A G A Z I N E . C O M
Remind
them that the adults in their lives (parents and teachers) are there to protect them. Remind them of the emergency drills that take place at school, which are exercises in order to keep them safe in case of a real emergency. Reassure your child that schools are 3 safe places. Recent studies have shown that schools are more secure now than ever before. It is important that you explain to your child all of the safety measures that schools have in order to keep students and staff safe. For example, at Downtown Doral Charter Elementary School, the facility is completely enclosed with one single point of entry. This contributes to an extremely safe learning environment and minimizes the possibility of a dangerous incident occurring.
Encourage your child to be a leader 7 regarding school safety. Encourage your child to report specific incidents such as bullying and to develop problem solving and conflict resolution skills. Find out what programs your school offers and how students can take on leadership roles. For example, at Downtown Doral Charter Elementary School, students can participate in programs such as the Ambassador Program or the News Team. These programs allow students to spearhead different schoolwide efforts, which can revolve around the topic of school safety. It is also important to remind children to be observant and let an adult know if they hear or see something that makes them feel uncomfortable. Keeping those lines of communication open and maintaining a constant dialogue is imperative. Continue to remind your child that violence is never a solution to any problem. It is always important to emphasize that children should seek assistance from a responsible adult when it comes to solving problems peacefully. Be safe!
Describe the safety plan at your child’s 4 school. Children need to know the plan. Explain to your child how the plan works. Most schools post their safety plan on the school’s website. For example, at Downtown Doral Charter Elementary School, the safety plan is readily available for parents

¿POR QUE LA EPIDEMIA DE
S A L U D M E N TA L
EN NUESTROS JOVENES?
E
n los ultimos años se han producido un numero de desgracias en las escuelas de America. Todos los jovenes que provocaron estos tiroteos estaban bajo los efectos de medicamentos psiquiatricos o en el proceso de eliminarlos. Porque tenemos tantos niños y jovenes usando estos medicamentes tan dañinos para la salud?. Es la forma mas facil de tapar la depresion, ADHD, ADD, ansiedad, etc?. Que esta causando esta epidemia de condiciones mentales y fisicas? Hablemos de como el cuerpo trabaja y algunas de las razones principales por la que se manifiestan estos sintomas. Cuando un niño manifiesta depresion, ansiedad, ADD, ADHD, etc es por alguna razon. Puede ser bullying, abuso sexual o fisico entre otras. Y con estas razones , los profesionales de la salud mental pueden ayudarlos a superar estos procesos. Pero cuando no hay nada de esto, porque sucede estas condiciones? 1 SALUD ESPINAL – NUTRICION 2 FALTA DE HORAS DE SUEÑO 3 RECOMENDADAS SEGUN LA EDAD Estas 3 razones pueden provocar estos sintomas y haciendo pequeños cambios, el cuerpo y la mente se recuperan de manera extraordinaria. Explicare en detalles las 3 razones. La salud espinal es importante para que todas las funciones de nuestro cuerpo trabajen corrrectamente y sin interferencias. Si hay una vertebra desalineada, causa presion a un nervio. Esto se llama subluxacion. La subluxacion provova estres en el cerebro y el cerebro envia una señal de estres al cuerpo. Todo esto provoca que la comunicacion de el cerebro con el resto de las funciones de el cuerpo se afecte y por consiguiente tener sintomas como ADD, ADHD etc.
afecte el intestino se manifiesta en el cerebro. Debemos de comer saludable, Alimentos geneticamente modificados (GMO), alimentos no organicos, azucar o substitutos, harinas refinadas, colorantes, preservativos, aceites como el canola, maiz, girasol o vegetal son alimentos que causan inflamacion en el colon y deben de evitarse totalmente. Medicamentos como los antibioticos, cortisona y esteroides pueden afectar la flora de el intestino y causar inflamacion.
Es hora de tomar accion con relacion al estado mental y emocional de los niños y jovenes. El enfoque de utilizar profesionales de la salud mental es bueno pero hay que indagar mas profundo porque estos sintomas suceden y la solucion mas facil es recetar medicamentos para aminorar estos sintomas. Los medicamentos tienen muchos efectos secundarios que pueden provocar los mismo sintomas originales o efectos mas complicados.
La falta de horas de sueño es un factor importante para la salud de el cerebro. Dependiendo de la edad es que se requiere horas de sueño especificas. Cuando la persona no tiene el descanso adecuado, el cuerpo produce cortisol. Esta es la hormona de el estres y se produce cuando hay un estres fisico, emocional o quimico. El no dormir adecuadamente es un estres fisico. El cortisol puede afectar varias funciones de el cuerpo si se produce en exceso. Por ejemplo, el nivel de azucar en la sangre, la produccion de melatonina, el uso de las hormonas por las celulas y la memoria. A continuacion las horas de sueño segun la edad:
Es importante hacer unos cambios en nuestro diario vivir. Mi objetivo es educar a las familias para seguir un camino de salud y bienestar fisica, emocional y quimica.

La nutricion toma un papel muy importante con relacion al cerebro. Hay una comunicacion directa desde el intestino (donde el 70% de nuestro sistema inmunologico esta localizado) hasta el cerebro . Todo lo que 26 L I V E D O R A L M A G A Z I N E . C O M

5 MITOS DE LA ALIMENTACIÓN QUE TE SORPRENDERÁN 1
DIETA SIN LACTOSA... ¿PERO POR QUÉ?
2
¿LAS NARANJAS SON LOS ALIMENTOS MÁS RICOS EN VITAMINA C?
La sabiduría de nuestras madres y abuelas, heredada de sus ancestros, les habían asegurado que la naranja tenía mucha vitamina C y que el zumo había que tomárselo rápidamente para que no perdiera estas propiedades. Aunque queremos mucho a nuestra madre, es hora de abrirle los ojos y explicarle que ni las vitaminas se evaporan ni la naranja o la miel nos van a curar los catarros. Existen muchos otros alimentos ricos en vitamina C menos conocidos, como por ejemplo, el pimiento, las acerolas, el kiwi o las grosellas negras, entre otros.
BAJO EN GRASAS VERSUS BAJO EN CALORÍAS
Ojo! cuando mires las etiquetas de los alimentos. Muchos de nosotros tendemos a pensar que aquellos que son light engordan menos o tienen menos calorías y no siempre es así. Muchos productos “light” o bajos en grasa contienen un alto nivel de azúcar o hidratos de carbono (normalmente se hace para compensar su sabor), y por tanto, a pesar de tener menos grasa, pueden contener las mismas calorías o incluso más, así que cuidado antes de pasarte a lo “light”.
5
En los últimos años se ha puesto de moda dejar de consumir lácteos también entre aquellos que no son intolerantes a la lactosa pero... ¿Por qué? Muchos argumentan que se digiere mal pero lo cierto es que la mayoría de médicos aconsejan a no eliminar los lácteos de la dieta si no existe una intolerancia real. Y es que los lácteos no solo son alimentos deliciosos y versátiles sino que tienen beneficios para la salud ya que son fuente de calcio y de vitamina B2.

LAS ESPINACAS NO TIENEN TANTO HIERRO COMO CREES
Lo siento, pero para ser como Popeye, vas a tener que hacer algo más que comer espinacas. ¿Sabías que el mito de que las espinacas tienen mucho hierro se debe a un error de un estudio de 1870 en el que olvidaron poner una coma decimal. Los resultados le otorgaron a esta verdura diez veces más cantidad de hierro de su valor real. La buena fama de las espinacas ya estaba creada y aunque más tarde se corrigió el error, aún hoy se cree que son una de las mayores fuentes de hierro.
¡Ahora ya lo sabes! No busques productos extraordinarios ni fórmulas sobrenaturales para tener una alimentación saludable o perder peso. Cualquier nutricionista o médico te lo dirá: come de todo, de forma variada y sin excesos. Aquí te dejamos una lista con 50 deliciosos alimentos para que hagas un menú equilibrado y sano.
YOGUR E INTOLERANCIA A LA LACTOSA... ¿INCOMPATIBLES?
¿Sabías que hay intolerantes a la lactosa que pueden consumir yogurt normalmente? En contra de lo que muchas personas piensan, dependiendo del grado de la intolerancia, la aceptación de cierta cantidad al día varía, sobre todo en el caso del yogurt ya que en su proceso de elaboración los fermentos rompen la lactosa, por lo que disminuye su presencia y esto hace que cuando hay una intolerancia moderada se pueda llegar a incorporar a la dieta diaria hasta 12 gramos de lactosa, de forma repartida. El yogurt contiene únicamente 4 gramos de lactosa.

HEALTH FASHION DINNING
• COMODIDAD por mucho que intentemos ocultarlo, se nota demasiado cuando nos sentimos incómodas con lo que llevamos puesto, y la incomodidad puede ser interpretada como inseguridad en tu área de trabajo. • SOLTURA asegúrate que las piezas que uses se vean holgadas, sin dejar perder la línea de tus curvas, pero que no te quede ajustado. No sólo quieres inspirar respeto, sino que quieres mantener la atención de tu audiencia en tus ideas y no en tus curvas. Levanta las manos, agáchate, siéntate, salta, hasta asegurarte que pase lo que pase todo se mantiene en su sitio.
UNA EJECUTIVA DE MODA
“Vestirse bien” no sólo se ha convertido en un tema de conversación frecuente entre amigas, fórums, revistas, blogs o programas de chismes. Vestirse bien se ha convertido en un hábito que busca representar la imagen que queremos proyectar ante el mundo y bajo la cual nos sentimos cómodas, seguras, fuertes y poderosas. Lo cierto es que como seres humanos cumplimos muchos roles al mismo tiempo en el día a día, y en el caso de las mujeres muchas lo hacemos en tacones y con el deseo de lucir fabulosas en el ínterin. Somos mujeres, hijas, madres, tías, maestras, representantes de alguna institución, y muchas de nosotras SOMOS EJECUTIVAS!
30 L I V E D O R A L M A G A Z I N E . C O M
• SOBRIEDAD a mí también me encantan los colores vibrantes, pero la mejor forma de llevarlos a la oficina es en tonos opacos o pasteles. La sobriedad inspira respeto, elegancia, y además seguridad. • PIEZAS ELECTRICAS y cuando digo eléctricas no me refiero a lentejuelas. A veces la forma más sencilla de llevar un vestuario chic es agregando un accesorio o pieza que sea la protagonista de tu vestimenta ese día. Por ejemplo: un cinturón que haga contraste con el resto de los colores, o unos zapatos de ornamenta excéntrica cómo los Ferragamo que llevo en una de las fotos. • PROPORCIONES conocer nuestro cuerpo y adaptar las tendencias de moda a nuestra silueta también es muy importante. Debemos aprender a trabajar con piezas de volumen y a combinarlas con otras mas lineales para que haya balance en la proporción de tu figura. El objetivo es vernos estilizadas. Por ejemplo: si tu silueta es de mayor volumen en el área superior que en el inferior los vestidos y pantalones acampanados son ideales para ti.
Confieso que como fashionista y ejecutiva ha sido todo un reto para mi encontrar el balance entre esos dos roles. No quiero causar escandalo en la oficina con lo que llevo puesto, debo recordar la institución a la que pertenezco y como mi imagen la afecta, pero jamás olvido que soy mujer, quiero lucir bella, atractiva y por supuesto chic.
Recuerda que no hay nada más importante que sentirte bien contigo misma y asegurarte que como tu te ves, este en concordancia y coherencia con el mensaje que estas proyectando.
Así que aquí les comparto una pequeña guía de tips a considerar cuando decidan que vestir para ir a trabajar, para esa entrevista de trabajo, o para esa conferencia tan importante:

“Sense…
F E E L I N G I T O R N O T ”: LA EXPOSICIÓN DE ARTE QUE FUE PERCIBIDA MÁS A L L Á D E L A V I S TA
E
ste mes de Abril el público de Miami disfruto de la exposición “Sentido, lo tenga o no” del artista plástico y creativo multidisciplinario Marco Caridad. En esta oportunidad Caridad busco que su público puediese percibir el arte mediante todos los sentidos.
Durante diez días continuos la comunidad de Miami gozo de la exposición “Sentido, lo tenga o no”, en el Art & Design Gallery, en Biscayne Boulevard en la ciudad de Miami; una ubicación estratégica para que, tanto residentes del norte como del sur de Miami pudiesen disfrutar del arte. Esta exposición “planteo un proyector de 360 grados, en el cual los asistentes no solo disfrutaron de las pinturas, sino que también tuvieron la oportunidad de experimentar todos los rubros del arte en los que me e desempeñado: artes audiovisuales, instalaciones artísticas, esculturas, teatro, literatura”, agregó Caridad. Las piezas de Caridad para la serie de “ Sentido, lo tenga o no” estaban llenas de contrastes que, según su curador Rafael Muci, “retrataron casualidades y anécdotas que se compenetran entre sí, diseñando un hilo narrativo de la vida del artista. En otras palabras, fue una retrospectiva de su vida, y un viaje al futuro”.
En sus obras, el artista venezolano utilizo elementos representativos de su vida y cotidianidad para darle un toque característico a sus lienzos. Marco Caridad se ha destacado por una técnica mixta donde integra los residuos de las velas con acrílicos, tizas, yeso, crayones de óleos y café, para crear pinturas con texturas bidimensionales. Para la noche de inauguración, el premiado bailarín venezolano, con recorrido artístico en New York, Leonel Linares realizo presentaciones de danza interpretativas basadas en los cuadros de la exposición. Además, dos días luego de la inauguración el artista realizo talleres gratuitos de pintura abstracta y recorridos personalizados para jóvenes y adultos. También, durante los viernes 20 y 27 de abril se realizarán lecturas dramatizadas de la obra “Sala Marco Caridad” escrita por el dramaturgo, actor y productor Yonyi Gutiérrez, e interpretada por el actor puertorriqueño Miguel Sahid y la actriz cubana-americana Mel Gorham.

drián y su esposa Paola iniciaron este proyecto luego de sentir que Dios lo coloco en sus corazones. Juntos se dieron cuenta de la falta de opciones saludables y lo que sus familiares y amigos buscaban. Así decidieron emprender en esta labor para ofrecer mucho mas a nuestra comunidad. A la mayoría de personas que trabajan tiempo completo, se les hace difícil poder cumplir con metas alimenticias ya que la rutina diaria y no permite el tiempo para lo mas importante que es el balance nutritivo. Juntos cocinan todas las mañanas usando ingredientes saludables, crean planes alimenticios que se adaptan a nuestro estilo de vida. Todo consiste de una serie de cajitas que son entregadas diariamente de Lunes a Viernes temprano en la mañana. Dentro de ellas encuentras una ensalada o sopa como acompañante y tu opción de almuerzo o cena o ambas! Es un servicio de entrega rápida que llega de manera muy fácil directamente hasta la puerta de tu casa. Su lema es “Just Like Home” que se traduce a la famosa frase “como en casa” cosa que para nosotros los latinos suena bastante familiar ya que nos hace recordar la comida que algún familiar solía preparar en grandes cantidades para toda la familia. Siempre con su propio sazón latino difícil de recrear para muchos tan increíble que solo ellos saben lograr. Luego de mucha dedicación fueron creciendo y con ese mismo cariño recibido comparten sus deliciosas cajas con la comunidad de personas que se encuentran en situación de calle aquí mismo en la ciudad de Miami. Junto a su familia sirven a nuestra comunidad participando en diferentes eventos pro humanitarios como los que han sido organizados por la fundación sin fines de lucro llamada “Making A Difference Everyday” Quienes promueven la fortaleza de relaciones mas fuertes atravez de el poder de la palabra de Dios.

UNITS: US
1 Remove steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit for about 30 minutes to take the chill out of the meat. 2 Now, coat both sides generously with coarse black pepper and granulated garlic powder. 3 Heat an iron skillet or a heavy bottomed frying pan until very hot on high heat. 4 For each steak, sprinkle onto the skillet, 3/4 teaspoon of coarse salt and allow salt to heat up for at least 1 minute. 5 Place the steaks on the coarse salt and cook for 3 minutes; DO NOT DISTURB at all, DO NOT LOOK or even move the steaks. 6 Turn the steaks over and cook for an additional 3 minutes; again DO NOT DISTURB at all. 7 The cooking time of 6 minutes gives you a medium-rare steak; DO NOT OVERCOOK. 8 If you desire to cook it to medium, then cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute per side. 9 Remove steaks to a plate, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes, so that all juices are absorbed by the meat. 10 Scrape off any excess coarse pepper and salt if desired and discard. 11 I prefer to slice the steaks on an angle about 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch thickness. 12 Serve with freshly processed horseradish. 13 NOTE Make sure that the heat is on as HIGH as possible without burning at all times during cooking the steaks. This will vary depending on your cooktop. 14 Do not use ordinary table salt. 15 Beef Tenderloin steaks are also real great cooked in this manner. If using a steak thicker than 1 inch, add 1 extra minute per side for medium-rare.

Shorr, who founded the foundation with his daughter, Mara Shorr. “Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School is located right in my South Florida backyard, and we knew that we wanted to do something. Dozens of South Florida business owners, as well as those from around the country, have banded together to make this happen in a matter of weeks. This includes Gordon & Rees Scully Mansukhani with legal assistance, Bhupen Vakharia, CPA with accounting services, and Durrick Designs with website development.”
