I believe many (if not all) performers or speakers  go through this challenging phase of getting over stage fright.  Even those who are confident with their skill or talent feel nervous when facing a huge crowd.  But public speaking (or performing) should not impede what we are set to accomplish.  There are many ways to deal with this anxiety and one of them is a supplement called Bravina.

Bravina helps get rid of public speaking anxiety and has of course, proven its effectiveness with 96% (for public speaking) and 81% (for concentration) customer satisfaction rating.  Apart from taking Bravina, there are speech advice and tips that can be easily downloaded and referenced from their website.

For people who are currently on medication, it is advisable to consult a physician prior taking Bravina supplements.  Apart from that, safety of this supplement is guaranteed.  So, if taking these supplements seem too good to be true, check out their website to get more information.

Well, who am I kidding?  At my age, I should very well be paying attention to my health and overall well -being.  I’m not too concerned right now but ten years down the road, I just might regret letting my skin get dark, deep wrinkles and overly dry and flaky.  Yikes!  And by then, I might as well be thinking about hormone replacement therapy, too!  Ah, what’s a girl got to do?

Also, we don’t encourage our daughter to eat chocolates (or other forms of sweets or junk foods). First, there’s no health value in them. Second, we want to take care of her teeth. And third, we don’t want her to gain unnecessary weight. No parent wishes for their children to someday worry about health and weight and search for diet pill that works.

What is the relation between the holidays and pregnancy, you might ask? Well, it is during this season when families get together and usually, topics about who has yet to get married or have kids come about. Unfortunately, well meaning family members can get pretty ‘insensitive’ when they bring up those subjects.

Especially so if the couple (if they’ve been trying for a baby for a long time), has subjected themselves to various tests (e.g. progesterone tests, sperm count) and has failed in their work-up attempts. That can aggravate the pain and frustration of being put in the ‘spotlight’.

That’s why our holiday wishes for them are, (1) that they survive their reunion parties unscathed, (2) eventually get over the (fertility) humps (3) and bear as many children as they want!

So many thoughts were running through my mind that time. Soon enough, we will be talking about bio-identical hormones or consulting hormone doctors. It is scary, to say the least. I’ve heard my mother complain about hot flashes, fatigue and weight gain.  Who wants to go through all that?

These days, many physicians offer bioidentical hormone therapy that is supposed to help deal with hormonal imbalance, menopause or andropause (male menopause). This hormone therapy replaces the critical hormones that we lose as we age. Aside from this, they also offer tips for overall wellness and proper nutrition.

It is interesting to read about articles related to this. And I know someday I will devote time to know more about hormone therapy. But for now, I will enjoy my life to the fullest and think about hormone checks when the time comes.

And for some who resort to diet pills, my advice is to be very careful in choosing which brand to buy. There are websites out there which provide diet pills review such as hoodia. The brand itself is rated and reviewed along with the other top diet pills. The site includes health benefits and consumer rating for consumers to be made aware before buying. Hoodia has been featured in popular shows like 60 Minutes and The Today Show and that may have some bearing on the company’s reputation.

I also enquired with the dentist about veneers. It sounds vain, I know, but it helps to know more hence I asked. But she advised that before I can go ahead with dental veneers, I need the braces first.

So there, cosmetic dentistry would have to wait for me. I hope that I can get everything done before we go back here next year. Imagine spending days of your precious vacation on a dentist’s chair? Not my idea of a good break but I have no other choice.

While others are working towards losing weight and taking lipovox, mine is the opposite. I want to gain some weight and to keep fit. I’m planning to start some sort of exercise regimen at home with the 3 yoga DVDs I recently got. Well, I prefer cardio exercises like kick boxing or taebo, but yoga is a good start.

It would be nice to feel “fit” once again. My age is surely catching up on me and I better do what I can to take care of my health.
