Control the Urge to Over Eat this Holiday

by Emmanuel

JP_Cookies_!2_24_13

You know that feeling, the little voice that says “Well, I can just eat one more cookie, it IS the holidays.” We have all been there. The holiday season can be a challenge when it comes to managing your healthy eating habits. But I want to help. Here are a few simple steps to help you cut down from overindulging this holiday season.

1.     Focus on the people – not the food.
The holidays are meant to spend time with friends and family. So do that, talk among those you are with, you’re not there for the food.

2.    Make the occasional exception – not the rule.
One day of splurging on holiday food is ok. Just make sure to get back to your normal routine the next day and get through the New Year.

3.    Host the party.
You can ensure there are healthy choices when you host. If you are going to someone else’s house, offer to bring food.

Wigs For Kids Holiday Giving

by Emmanuel

Julia

The moment a child begins losing their hair can be a life changing experience. That experience touched my heart years ago when I began Wigs for Kids, and continues to touch my heart and the lives of others every single day. Working with children who have lost their hair has taught me that every child deserves to look, and feel normal.

And now I’d like to introduce you to Julia, who has shared her story so that you may havw that same experience. Julia is a 3-year-old Wigs For Kids recipient, who was diagnosed with Alopecia  Totalis, a form of hair loss resulting in the loss of all hair on her head. A smart and bubbly girl, Julia has not allowed her hair loss to get in her way. She is certainly a spirited gift from above. Receiving a hairpiece has provided a feeling of normalcy and acceptance among her peers. Julia’s hairpiece will allow her to continue to swim and go horseback riding without a fear of her hairpiece falling off.

Cover Up for the Holidays

by Emmanuel

Cover Me

December is a month of cheer, but for those women experiencing 10-20 percent hair thinning or loss that cheer can be replaced with a bit of worry. There’s no need to worry this holiday season, camouflage makeup is a simple solution for early hair thinning and loss to keep that holiday cheer alive.

Just like light powder and liquid can cover dark and red spots on skin, light powder and liquid can conceal thinning areas on your scalp. After a consultation at Jeffrey Paul Salon, we can show you how this camouflage solution can help you look nearly perfect so you can enjoy that holiday party.

Here are some of my tips for applying camouflage makeup:

Styling Tools to Create Your Holiday Hairstyle

by Emmanuel

Flat Iron

Having great hair for the holidays may mean styling with hot tools. But there are common mistakes we make when it comes to using curling irons and flat irons. I want you to look fabulous this holiday season, so here are three things to consider before prepping your look.

1.     Time – First, time management is a big deal. We all have places to be during this busy season, and the correct styling tools will help style your hair in less time. Tools get old. If you have had the same hot iron for years, it is time to replace it. Styling tools wear down over time, which causes them to not work as well and lead to unsatisfying results.

Immune booster for the cold winter months

by Emmanuel

Happy family! Mother and child girl on a winter walk in nature.

Tis the season! With the holidays comes Christmas cheer, and winter’s chill. Many of us are in need of an extra boost in our immune systems. December being such a busy month, it’s important that we support our health!

Luckily, I have a great and effective way to help promote a healthy immune and respiratory function during these cold winter months. That is, a Protective Blend foaming hand wash.

Prevention Blend soap is made from 5 natural oils so it is safe and will leave your hands feeling clean and refreshed. The key to making sure your hands are clean is to rub the soap in between your fingers and under your nails. The gentle cleansers help to soften hands throughout the day without drying or irritating sensitive skin. Once it is rubbed in, rinse your hands with lukewarm water and dry with a clean towel.

Be sure to wash your hands frequently throughout the day to make sure you and your family stays healthy through the holidays!

The Gift of Thanksgiving

by Emmanuel

JP_Give thanks_11_28_13

All of us know that in the month of November we celebrate the Day of Thanksgiving…but what about the other 364 days of the year???

Do you celebrate Thanksgiving each and every day? You would if you understood the “Gift of Thanksgiving” and its power to overcome difficulties, depression, anxiety, disappointment, failures and so much more that we are faced with each day of our lives.

Giving thanks is easy when everything is good, going our way or when we get what we want. The true power and the life changing aspect of giving thanks is finding the powerful discipline to give thanks  even in the midst of life’s challenges. It is not that we are giving thanks for the challenge, but instead giving thanks that God loves us so much that even in the midst of the challenges He is by our side and IS working all things together for the good.

This discipline needs to be practiced with great diligence to see it change storms into calm seas and failures into successes. The choice to discipline our thoughts and our words – to be thankful for not what is seen but rather what is hoped for – activates our faith and gives God the praise and thanks in Him rather than in the things of this world or the circumstances of our life.

So this year as you sit down and give thanks… remember to give thanks for not only the good that you see, but also that which is unseen, and being worked out, by God, for the Good! By doing this, every day, you unleash the true “Gift of Thanksgiving!”

                  “Summing it all up, friends, I’d say you’ll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies.” (Philippians 4:8, 9 MSG)

How Hot Water Affects How Hair Shines

by Emmanuel

JP_TempHandels_11_7_13

Click below to listen: 

Not so hot! One of the bad habits many of us continue to do when washing our hair, is using hot water. Although hot water may feel good on our body in the shower, it actually causes your hair cuticles to swell. When your cuticles swell, it creates an uneven surface, the result? Your hair looks dull. Instead, rinse your hair with cold or lukewarm water to close the cuticle and create an all over shine.

Feed the “Root” of Hair Loss.

by Emmanuel

bigstock-The-Tree-And-Rood-9695642

We have all heard the saying, “you need to get to the root of the problem in order to find a solution.” Finding a hair loss solution is no different. When a woman comes in to see me to ask about a solution for her hair loss she is looking to find a solution that takes care of what she sees in the mirror every day. Yet, it is just as important that we also work on a solution for what is unseen and may be the root of the problem of hair loss.

Much like a tree, hair has a root called the follicle. If the follicle of the hair is not getting the right nutrients it can cause the hair to grow thinner, go dormant or even fall out. This is why maintaining a healthy diet and finding the right nutritional supplement, comprised of natural elements, can make a difference in keeping hair strong and beautiful while also maintaining hair for as long as possible.

Soft Hair & A Soft Heart

by Emmanuel

What happens to your hair when it gets hard? It looks bad and breaks. The same thing happens to your heart. We have all been hurt by someone and have become bitter, the only way to soften your heart is to moisturize it with love and compassion.

Watch my video above as I give you the exercise to help you soften your heart:

  1. On a piece of paper write down everything you may be angry about.
  2. Then, safely light it on fire and let those words become ashes.

And remember, just as Proverbs 4 says, “guard your heart, it’s the wellspring of good life.” Today, guard your heart by letting go of that which makes it hard.
