Having a bad hair day? Well a bad skin day can take a lot longer to fix I can tell you.

Your skin is the largest and most visible organ you have since it covers the entire body. Having attractive, healthy skin starts from the inside and reflects on the outside. The first step towards taking proper care of your skin is to determine what type of skin you are in right now.

Looking both inside and outside our bodies it would seem common sense to reduce the cocktail of chemicals around us whenever possible. They are present in household cleaners, furniture, and pollution from cars. There seems to be no escape from damaging our skin so where do we start? The food that we eat is perhaps the most obvious start or reducing the number of chemicals and pesticides in our bodies. However, for those of us who use them, skin and body care products are another very direct point of contact between ourselves and the world of invasive chemicals.

If you have changed to organic eating habits, you might be wondering about an organic solution for skin care. The cosmetics, perfumes and cleansers that we use contain chemicals that are easily absorbed through skin, or through our lungs when we inhale the perfume. These chemicals then rapidly enter the bloodstream. Should this be a concern?

People choose organically produced foods because they believe these foods are safer. So if you treat your skin with chemically produced substances that have also been proven to affect lab animals in negative ways (even though testing cosmetics on animal labs seems to have reduced), the same negative effects will happen to your skin. Natural or Organic skin care is the care of the skin using ingredients such as herbs, roots, and flowers. They are combined with natural oils and waters. These ingredients do not include chemicals that may be harmful to your body or be the reason of certain unwanted side effects. The body shops founder realised these decades ago and built a multinational company that has recently been sold to L’Oreal.

Which types of food are good for our skin?

Avoid too much fat and grease. A diet full of variety is the most beneficial for our skin. Fruits and vegetables are great sources of vitamins and minerals responsible for maintaining skin integrity. Protein is also a key player. Some important nutrients are vitamin A and vitamin C. Vitamin A deficiency can cause dry, scaly skin.

Look out for the labels!

Many labels have long lists of chemical names, some followed by the phrase derived from … (some natural substance). This is grossly misleading for consumers who are looking for genuine natural products.

However, the term certified organic is governed by a number of internationally recognised bodies. In Australia the Biological Farmers of Australia (BFA) is the largest and the Soil Association in the UK. Searching for products with the logo of a certifying body on the label is the only way you can guarantee the organic authenticity and integrity of every ingredient in the product. This can then truly be called a natural product.

There are three different kinds of company - the alternative, the altruistic and the renegades.

The first group - radically alternative companies - support fair trade, sustainable production methods, co-operation with workers, south-south linkages, consumer networks, people-to-people exchanges, mixed stakeholder and participatory ownership, profit which is not private profit and a basic philosophy which is not profit-orientated. The second, altruistic, group are conventional companies that are trying to look good. They adopt codes of conduct or advertise themselves through a connection with a international non-profit organisation and may donate a small amount of profits to help fund the charity work. Finally there are the renegades, who refuse to acknowledge the social and environmental costs of their activities and argue for the neutrality and fairness of the free market mechanism. The interaction and relative commercial success of these different types of company are at the heart of the battle for the future market. The altruistic company is likely to adopt the language and imagery of the alternative company and confuse consumers. The renegade will likely aim to tackle both the altruistic and the alternative by using punitive and competitive pricing and sustained PR strategies. Monsanto, for instance, tried the latter and is accused of using the law to scare off campaigners. The crucial difference between an alternative and an altruistic company is that an alternative company seeks to change the unequal relationships between primary producers and the consumers, using the brand as the means not the end. Its whole purpose is to reorganise the production chain on a fair and egalitarian basis. The altruistic company by contrast leaves the inequalities of the production chain virtually untouched. Trade unions, NGOs, fair traders and campaigning organisations have all needed to work in varying proportions both in and against the market. To change the terms of trade in the market place is a big challenge because there are no single entities to take on or to work through. Potentially the most successful strategy is a pincer movement between consumer campaigns and companies that illustrate alternatives. There have been some successes, albeit partial. The campaign over genetically modified food is the most dramatic. Its impact is reinforced by a growing sector of alternative, organic agricultural companies. Shell seems to have decided it could not win the argument and maybe felt that nobody bright and conscientious would want to work for it in the future. The judges who heard McDonald’s appeal against the critical judgement of the McLibel judge reconfirmed the original verdict in favour of Steel and Morris on the central issues of low pay, low nutrition and misleading appeals to children. Other companies which resist the social and economic justice agenda have started to see what’s coming from the campaigns and the extent to which consumers are prepared to stand up and be counted. Certainly, a rethinking of the market is under way but how far do these campaigns and initiatives break out of the totalitarianism by which we are told there is simply one kind of market? What is a rethought market? Have the new campaigns and companies achieved anything? The successful campaigns and actions have key features in common. They work at a level of deeper knowledge - for example a suspicion that genetic modification is intrinsically dangerous or an understanding that the market mechanism has an inbuilt limitation and cannot respect the universal need for a living wage. They aim to achieve a widespread understanding of an issue through education and argument. They counterbalance their critique with specific, ‘do-able’ actions. They nurture solidarity and resist the zero-sum game mentality of the global market which argues that jobs in Asia equals job losses in the UK.

The emerging economic alternatives take some of these values to their logical conclusion, by creating alternative TNCs which bring together on an equal basis different groups in the production chain, illustrating in a modest way that there is a feasible alternative to the controlling and surplus - extracting relationships orchestrated by the main brands.

Small companies like Cafe Direct and the Day Chocolate Company combine three essential elements which offer significant potential: They have production processes which embody complex social, human and environmental purposes, including financial return. Their company structures foster co-operative relationships, not just of ownership, but the connectedness and management of common interest of otherwise unequal parties. Their promotional activities eschew use of culture and information solely to create ‘needs’ for goods or fashionable uniformity but stress tolerance, diversity and the political relevance of knowing the issues and lifestyle choices. These elements make sense to people. The intent and purpose of these alternative multinationals resonate with all who feel doubtful about the benefits that the market will bring. It is hard to trust the fidelity of the altruistic companies to their claimed social purpose. The genuinely alternative companies engage people’s conscience, rely on the interplay between themselves and campaigns and relish education and action. They depend on and celebrate the empowerment of individuals and organised groups. They also deliver goods and services which people want and need, effectively excluding TNCs from their own marketplace. These alternatives and consumer-based campaigns, hopefully linking up with workplace-based campaigns that connect the needs of producers and consumers, illustrate that there is more than one kind of market place. But the goals of those who are most clearly working for a fair market are up against the most powerful economic interests in the world. Their success depends on relationships with other bargaining groups engaged with the market. The emergence of new fairer economic relationships depends on: how much governments agree to increase their political credibility by raising standards through public regulation how much corporations continue to hold many governments to ransom for support, sweeteners, deregulation or lowering of labour and other ethical standards whether the best companies gain customers and endorsers, thus ensuring their commercial survival against the competitors who resist the new normative frameworks but offer cheaper goods and services how much civil action goads the voluntary initiatives of all companies how much trade unions, NGOs and other community-based organisations who ‘opt in’ to bargaining with TNCs become divided from those that do not the way in which civil society and communities of producers and consumers can retain their independence and their values-based thinking, activities and language. The advantages of democratic, consumer-oriented campaigns are their responsiveness, natural intelligence, empathy and internationalism, the ad hoc nature of their birth and death, their simplicity of purpose, audacity and vision. On the other hand they lack strategic sense or a notion of destination. So, closer co-operation between the labour movement and the consumer-based campaigns now taking on multinational capital would be of great mutual value and a step forward in reshaping the forces at play. The capacity for strategic debate and sense of vision to be found in labour movement traditions could help to overcome a weakness of the fair trade and NGO movement. On the other hand the focus of this consumer movement on the content of market relations is vital to rethinking socialism in an age of multinational domination where common ownership does not provide the most feasible immediate solution to economic injustice In the long term, consumer, trade union and government efforts to socialise the market will lead to new forms of companies, with forms of ownership which equalise relations between producers and consumers. But action can be taken directly, collectively and immediately in the market before changes in ownership become a remote possibility.

In this article, a woman’s psychotherapist shares her own thoughts as well as other women’s wisdom about financial independence and teaching it to the younger generation.

As a woman’s psychotherapist, among many other things, I often hear clients express concerns about the younger generation of women and how easily it is for them to lose their way on the rocky road to womanhood.  One of the main concepts I preach to older women is becoming a ‘mentor’ to help guide younger women into adulthood.  Having the wisdom gained from years of ‘trial and error’ experiences in life, older women have so much to offer future generations.  I also tell clients that teaching young women about becoming financially responsible and independent is one of the main keys to empowerment as a woman in this society.

Money really is power.  I can’t tell you how many stories I’ve heard from clients about how they’re stuck in a miserable and/or abusive relationship because they rely on a man to pay the bills.  This problem is compounded greatly when there are also children involved who need expensive clothes, dental work, and just basic food and shelter.  The cost of living is always increasing and our expenses can be overwhelming when we’ve got children to look after as well as ourselves.

Luckily, I’m noticing a positive trend these days whereby young women aren’t as vulnerable to being completely financially dependent on men because they’ve learned some very valuable lessons from watching what their mothers and grandmothers lived through.  Many young women are realizing that it’s futile to depend on someone else to look after them financially.  With one in every two marriages ending in divorce, women can no longer expect to be taken care of financially by their partners.  We must learn the value and practicality of becoming financially independent so that we feel empowered, in control, and proud of our achievements.

In my book, “What Your Mama Can’t or Won’t Teach You” (available at
www.guidebooktowomanhood.com), I interviewed over 20 women about various topics and asked them to share lessons they have learned with younger women.  The following are direct quotes from the chapter entitled, “Money talk”. If you are concerned about guiding the next generation of women in a positive direction, here are some gems from other wise women that you can pass on to the young women in your life regarding managing money:

“My biggest advice about money is: get educated- learn about it Read books on investing. Start investing young. Be a balanced spender/saver and be disciplined with money so that you’re saving for things you want, instead of ‘instant gratification and pay for it later’…”

“I think it’s very important for young women to learn about managing finances. It’s important to have control over your finances and know where you’re going so you can plan for the future and for retirement; don’t depend on someone else to do that for you.  Things have changed a lot and more people now are single and relationships aren’t lasting that long. Women should be cognizant of that and not be emotionally and financially dependent on men, because if the relationship goes away, you are left broke.”

“I had an elderly German woman once say to me, “Honey, if you’re not alone, you’re going to be.” What she was saying was: don’t count on somebody else providing for you and this is what I tell my daughters. You need to be independent and then if you share with somebody, how absolutely fabulous and wonderful. But you need to set yourself up so that you’re financially independent.”

“I know it’s hard to think about when you’re a teenager because you think you’re going to be here forever, but my advice is start investing as soon as you have money of your own. Save at least five percent of your earnings and put it into some kind of savings. You can start an RSP when you’re 18. Put some money away because you do not want to depend on somebody else for your livelihood. In my mother’s day, you’d get married and your husband would look after you. Now that just doesn’t happen. It just doesn’t make sense. You’ve got to have your own money and understand how money works. It’s not that confusing if you spend time understanding it. The best way to save money is to not spend more than you make. It’s pretty simple, but a lot of people just don’t get it. Especially with all the credit cards and access to all the on-line stuff- it’s very seductive. Pay your credit cards on time and don’t ever be in debt.”

The brilliant Barefoot Doctor tells us how to add a spiritual dimension to shopping.

Author of best selling and tremendously useful books such as Barefoot Doctor’s Handbook for the Urban Warrior- healer and creator of fantastic potions- the brilliant Barefoot Doctor tells us how to add a spiritual dimension to shopping.

What is a barefoot doctor?

In the ancient orient, wandering healers would tramp about the countryside keeping the people healthy and in good spirits by teaching taichi, chi gung and other psychophysical methods from Taoism. Treating them with herbs and acupuncture, massage and bone setting, energy healing, and generally entertaining them with poetry and song.

This barefoot doctor is the post-modern global, urban model -tramping about the planet, polluting the air with airplane fuel, bringing spiritual succour to the world through his self-help advice, books, TV, radio, music, performance and even perfume.

Do you shop ethically?

Mostly, but am quite led by belief in certain brands being ethical without really having full knowledge of their doings i.e. slightly emotionally led, but generally, I am not a huge consumer.

Are the consequences of what you buy important to you?

Yes, of course, but its like going on airplanes to get places to heal the world while helping to destroy it with pollution, I accept this is not a perfect scenario and no brand is totally clean.

How important are environmental issues to people’s well-being?

All important in one way, the present rate of environmental destruction is bad for everyone’s health because if we don’t reverse it we’ll all die.

How easy is it to be awakened spiritually in a consumer driven society?

Waking up happens wherever you are - consumer driven society or not. Staying awake becomes an imperative subsequently because it gets so uncomfortable every time you fall back into the consumerist, ego driven stupor. So you tend to stay awake. In reality, the realm of spirit is not affected by surface considerations as consumerism. It goes much deeper than that. The main danger is getting lost in greed and fear, but that’s hard to do for long once you’ve woken up.

What affect does consumerism have on people at a spiritual level?

Your connection/dialogue/relationship with the spiritual realm (within) is definitely clouded in the consumerist world. Without strong self-discipline to nurture it on a daily basis, through the practice of some kind of spiritual/psychophysical training, it is distracted, diverted and dissipated. However, the actual spirit itself, is unbounded and unlimited in its essence and cannot be defiled through the profane ?it can only affect your connection with it.

What are the most common problems people seek your advice about?

Depression, anxiety, fear about the world, confusion in relationships, guilt, loneliness, then stuff like migraine, eczema, acne, breathing problems, obesity, anorexia, hair loss, cancer and all kinds of things really.

You say that depression, anxiety and fear about the world are the predominant things people contact you about, is this a reflection, in one sense, of the corrosive influence western consumer culture is having?

You mean the cynicism and emptiness of our society leads to depression etc? Yes, of course, but its also part of a greater cycle - the gradual awakening of the human race as a body. At the moment we’re going through the adolescent phase where everything is coming out like acne - so it can be healed. So in a way, this mass depression thing is a good sign that the existential crisis we spend so much energy pushing down (depressing) using consumerism as the diversion device, is finally coming to the surface to be dealt with properly. In societies where spiritual awareness is more closely woven into the daily fabric, isolation is not such a problem. In non-consumerist groups you tend to find the greater family and local community is a strong force.

How did you put together your range of products, and what do they provide?

I started with a scent which I made from oils, then I designed the branding and then asked around about how to market perfume and four years later, as if by total magic, it’s in 300 Boots stores, soon to be in 500, as well as in other outlets around the world.

A lot of love goes into it and that’s mostly what people get - on a subliminal level anyway. No product will change your psyche, but the messages on the packaging, the smell, the feel, the texture, the colour and the vibe can trigger you to make changes yourself. Also the products are luxurious at a fair price and people can feel that.

Are they environmentally friendly or organic?

Yes, they’re environmentally friendly; the containers are all biodegradable and recyclable. No they’re not organic, but a blend of mostly organic, slightly synthetic, but this is only to increase the luxury factor with such actions as lathering and spreading. If entirely organic compounds were fulfilling these functions, the price would be so prohibitive there wouldn’t be a range in the first place.

How did you learn to disseminate your energy through the Internet?

Just played around with it with the intention to emanate and in time got a bit of a result. But I’m really still working on it as far as the site’s concerned. Emails are another thing - very direct - immediate effect on people. I write with energy and love and it comes through the screen in the words - same as with anyone else really.

Increasingly we find ourselves beset by problems that seem beyond our control; global warming, GM Foods, animal testing, the spread of factory farming, the arms trade and human rights abuses, to list but a few. Shoppers are often left feeling helpless, the typical response being theres nothing I can do.

But you can by shopping in an Ethical way. Put simply, this is buying things that are made ethically by companies that act ethically. Buying ethically means buying a brand or from a company which doesn’t exploit labour, animals or the environment. The way in which you can act as an ‘ethical consumer’ can also take on a different form and that is avoiding products (also known as boycotting) you disapprove of such as battery eggs.

GuideMeGreen acts as a unique internet guide, showing you which brands and companies are classed as ethical. For more indepth information see the Good Shopping Guide or the Ethical Consumer magazine.

Everyone needs to go shopping in one way or another. As an ethical consumer, every time you buy something you can make a difference by choosing an ethical product or by buying from an ethical business.

For example, when you buy from a company that doesn’t exploit its workers and provides them with decent working conditions, you are giving the company the funds to continue its ethical behaviour. At the same time, you are no longer buying from a company that exploits its labour with poor pay and often a dangerous working environment. That company then loses business, which may encourage it to change its ways and to look after its workers.

Marks and Spencers the huge retail chain in the UK recently ran an ethical products campaign and said that this was its most successful ever. Many of the big retail companies are now seeing the benefits of offering a range of ethical goods for sale including ethical trainers, ethical shoes and t-shirts.

In general consumers must have confidence that any ‘ethical’ claims that a brand may make conform to certain standards which are independently accredited. Organisations such as the Good Shopping Guide and Ethical Consumer provide an ethical analysis of everyday brands and the companies behind them. The Ethical Marketing group publishes the Good Shopping Guide, updated annually, grading hundreds of companies according to their policies on 15 ethical issues.

Working to promote ethical shopping, The Ethical Company Organisation enables consumers to easily compare the Corporate Social Responsibility records of hundreds of companies and brands.

The Ethical Company Organisation’s Research Department monitors the ethical records of hundreds of different companies across 15 criteria including environmental records, human rights, animal welfare and involvement in the arms trade. This involves working with hundreds of ethical consumers, progressive companies and NGOs on a range of research and publishing programmes.

Cotton is a versatile crop and is used for a vast variety of products and almost any type of fabric can be made from it. It is also very comfortable and durable. All these uses make it one of the most popular and widely traded commodities on earth.

Cotton is a globally important fibre, providing returns to many small farmers in developing countries. Fairtrade cotton has just been released in the UK providing job security and greater incomes to farmers. But the downfall is that most cotton is produced in a way that causes great damage to the environment as is it is one of the most chemical intensive crops in the world. High productivity comes at great environmental and health costs.

So serious are the negative impacts of chemical-intensive agricultural production, that momentum for change has grown considerably in recent years. The trend toward more environmentally friendly production methods is mainly due to enlightened companies under pressure of increased environmental regulation and competition, and informed consumers calling for greater social and environmental accountability.

In many African countries with lax environmental controls, farmers can apply nearly one-third of a pound of chemical fertilizers and pesticides for every pound of cotton harvested. Some of these chemicals are classified as the most toxic around and the negative impacts can be severe. The simple act of growing and harvesting the amount of cotton fibre needed to make a T-shirt takes an enormous toll on the earths air, water, and soil, and has significant impacts on the health of people in cotton growing areas. These carcinogenic chemicals can leave residues on the skin, and it is now argued that these are associated with allergies. Organic cotton is therefore kinder to the skin. For more information visit the Pesticide Action Network site at http://www.pan-uk.org/

Organic cotton begins with living soil. This means the soil has not had any chemicals used in it for at least three years and it has been enriched with compost and other organic matter. These replace synthetic fertilizers that are harmful to the health.

Organic cotton production has increased 5-fold in the past 4 years. The UK is among the worlds fastest growing markets. Each year, thanks to organic cotton, more cotton farmers around the world are able to minimise their effect on their health from pesticide exposure.

Learn amazing secrets that can take anyone’s wardrobe from average to fabulous. Learn tips and techniques that you can do at home to change the way you dress to look like you are rich even if you are not.

How we look greatly affects people’s perception and acceptance of us. The first and greatest piece you can add to your wardrobe is a smile and it is free. It is a well-known fact that people are more attracted to people who smile than people who frown, so wearing a smile is the first way to look like you are rich even if you are not.

We can look at life any way we want. It is our choice. We can see it as a debit or an asset. If we choose to see it as an asset, it will reflect in our smile and people will be influenced by the mere joy they feel when they see us. In our society today, if we desire to be successful we must look successful. Have you heard the clichй, “Fake it, till you make it?” Well that is basically what you can do with your wardrobe and a few common sense ideas.

Most people want to look great! However, the idea of looking great conjures up thoughts of spending lots of money, but that is not necessarily true. Let’s take a look at some free, as well as economical ways for you to look like you are rich even if you are not.

If you can’t hire a maid, dust off the trusty old iron! A crisply ironed white shirt and a pair of nicely pressed jeans will cause you to look like you are rich even if you are not! Little details matter, such as well manicured nails, keeping your eyebrows neat, and getting an updated haircut. What about your posture? Create an air of confidence around yourself. Walk and sit up straight. It will certainly cause you to stand out in a crowd.

If you can’t buy expensive clothes, then raise the bar on the ones you can afford or already have. Carefully examine your clothes; cut off loose threads, use a lint roller or a clothes shaver, search out buttons or button holes that need a touch up. Look for well finished pockets, straight hems and neatly sewn linings. If you see repairs that are needed and you can’t make these repairs yourself, take them to a seamstress. A small investment in these items will raise their intrinsic value.

Investigate the fabric of the pieces you are buying. If your budget does not allow for silk or cashmere, go for cotton or wool. They are always stylish and fashionably correct. You can always invest in one nice silk scarf and that will set off a myriad of outfits. When you invest in jewelry, buy the best costume jewelry that you can afford. Better to buy one nice piece, than two or three cheaper ones. All these details add up to the sum total of how to look like you are rich even if you are not.

If there is one thing that you need to splurge on, or save your money to buy, it is a nice pair of leather shoes, or boots. Do the same thing with your handbag; always go for leather. Keeping leather shoes and handbags looking nice is a must. Leather conditioning creams are very inexpensive. This will also keep them looking new much longer. Always be on the lookout for sales. Check out consignment and discount stores. You can always find fantastic bargains on eBay!

Now you know the secret to having the look of the rich and famous. Put a little more thought and effort into the preparation of your wardrobe and you will look like you are rich, even if you are not!

The discomfort and embarrassment of a enlarge prostate affects 60% of men between the ages of 40 and 60. Up to 80% of those who are 80 years old. A enlargement of this gland puts pressure on your urethra. This results in problems when you urinate.(Increasing in a need to urinate more frequently and leaving you with a strange feeling that you haven’t urinated or emptied your bladder at all.)

Zinc is an essential for prostate health. Studies have shown that taking zinc supplements reduces the size of the prostate and relieves the symptoms.(Fed Pro 35:361, 1976). Take 60 mgs of zinc a day for 6 months. You can then reduce this to 15 to 30 mgs a day.

Saw palmetto is another great source you can add to your diet. This is a herbal supplement with no side effects. 80 to 160 mgs a day would be an appropriate preventive dose. Saw palmetto has been used by the Native Americans for years.

Watch out for these symptoms:

* Frequent need to urinate.(Waking up several times a night to urinate.)

* Feeling a urgent need to urinate(this can make you feel like you are going to have a accident if you don’t get to the toilet in time. And you start doing this alot.)

*A Difficulty in urinating(initial hesitation before urine starts to flow.)

*Dribbling after urinating.

*Blood in your urine.

To keep your prostate from bugging you in the prevention of a unhealthy prostate, start having alot of interaction in love making and sex. You need to keep ejaculating and you need to ejaculate frequently. If you are having a problem ejaculating properly, there are products available over on my blog to get you started. Yes, lots of love making and sex.

HINT: If one stops having orgasms, the fluid backs up and the glands become swollen. This is what is called prostate congestion(swollen glands and then pain.)

It wouldn’t hurt to stay active sexually. Do something about your prostate now before its too late.
