HEALTH & BEAUTY
By Rowena Kitchen
done while having a telephone conversation. Keep these to a minimum if ‘skyping’ as you don’t want to frighten the horses. Waiting for a bus or similar public annoyances is a time to do stealth exercises such as calf stretches, pelvic floor strengthening and reconnecting with your ‘core’. Suck in your stomach while driving the car to work
your abdominal muscles. Imagine your stomach is being drawn towards your spine and you will be getting it right. Hold this movement for as long as you can then repeat but remember to breathe! In time you will be able to increase this significantly and it works! multi tasking never looked so good. Instead of panic beautifying, create a routine and stick
with it. Victory is yours if you set yourself daily goals and in the beginning even make a checklist and check it twice. as with keeping exercise equipment around the house,
keep lotions and potions in the same way. Hand cream in the car is a no-brainer, obviously traffic lights were created for us to apply and massage in the appropriate cream at least once a day. Apply the cream straight from the tube to the back of one hand and use the back of the other to massage it in – avoid the palms when driving, you don’t want your hands to slide off the wheel taking a tight bend. Cuticle cream by the bed is the perfect placement – applied as you slither between the sheets means nothing will wick it away or suck it out as you are not going to be plunging your hands into water or gloves (both devils for desiccating those cuticles and nails) for at least eight hours. When it comes to winning the ‘Battle of the Bulge’, as it is charmingly known, tactics that include filling the fridge with healthy snacks which you can grab, confident in the knowledge you are not adding to your waistline but filling the void, will help you stick to a reducing plan. Better yet, try eating three meals a day with no snacking in between. If you have a particular fondness for a food then it is almost certainly not your friend! You won’t gain weight eating kilos of cabbage……… If you plan your battles and come out shooting from the hip you will soon find that the victory you are longing for is easier to achieve. It may even be true that you are your own worst enemy?? Happy Trails, Readers, Happy Trails
