water flosser

Gum disease is one of the reasons why our teeth loosen. It is important that we brush our gums as well as our teeth to prevent gum disease. Every dentist will tell you that. I’ve always looked after my teeth, including flossing. However, it is tedious having to use dental floss. Food bits get everywhere along the floss, and it takes a long wash of the hands to get the hands clean and smelling freshCONTINUE READING…

indoor cycle

I purchased a Proform TDF 1.0 indoor cycle over three years ago, and I use it regularly. It can be used with iFIT, which is a separate fitness subscription, but I often wish I had just purchased a basic indoor cycle at the third of its £899 price. The spin bike or indoor cycle provides a fantastic workout. With enough effort, you can burn over 500 calories per hour. I completed 42 kilometres yesterday inCONTINUE READING…

concept 2

I’ve officially become part of the Concept 2 crowd, and what a strong sturdy rowing machine this is. It’s exciting to receive a new fitness machine like the Concept 2 because all sorts of thoughts flowed through my head.  My initial plan was to perform twenty x 200m distance intervals, with a ten second rest in between, but I completely flumped at set two. I was absolutely knackered. It was on the highest resistance ten.CONTINUE READING…

thoughts of suicide

I am glad I am alive. I have Almighty God my creator to thank for that. However, there are desperate days when I have thoughts of suicide. The overwhelming feelings can cloud any lucidity and I often end up crying in desperation looking for a way to end these feelings of loneliness, desperation, self-hate etc. I don’t want to hurt anyone I really don’t. And I don’t act this way to manipulate, because the LordCONTINUE READING…

Do you love tabata exercise because it provides a thorough workout? Try this tough workout on your spin bike for a lung busting workout. This tabata protocol is simple. Use a tabata app on your phone to keep tabs, and put on your favourite tune. It will give you the motivation. I set my tabata app for three rounds, but because I’ve not been on my bike for several weeks, I could only complete oneCONTINUE READING…

Check the supermarkets and skin stores and there are an abundance of antiperspirants, but not many deodorants. It’s just not healthy to stop the pores from sweating, and it’s not sweat that smells but when bacteria (from stress) mixes with the sweat this is what causes armpit odour. Do you know what the easiest eco friendly cheapest deodorant ever is? Bicarbonate of soda, or baking soda. However, I must warn you that it may causeCONTINUE READING…

Do you remember Where’s Wally? He was a cartoon character dressed in red and white stripes, with glasses and a baseball cap, and through the busyness of the scene, we had to search for the goggled guy. I have a puzzle for you. Where is the missing jigsaw piece in this 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle? Don’t look down, if you don’t want to know where the missing jigsaw piece is? I purchased this personalised 1000CONTINUE READING…

We learn something new every day, and today as I was giving blood the nurse told me that I had burnt 650 calories donating a pint of blood. “No way” I exclaimed. “That’s fantastic. Well I never knew.” Already burnt off half of my full english breakfast this morning. Can only donate every few months so it’s hardly an easy weight loss program, but hey, I never knew that you could burn such substantial caloriesCONTINUE READING…

Naissance Organic Shea Butter is a wonderful versatile product for adults and children. When a small amount is applied to the face, as it is very concentrated, it leaves skin with an immediate healthy glow. Immediate results it gives because it boosts blood flow. Great to use at night for super soft skin in the morning. Dab a small amount under the eyes as an anti-wrinkle treatment. Naissance organic shea butter is also great onCONTINUE READING…

I purchased a Mornwell Water Flosser over 12 months ago, and it’s the best £25 investment I’ve ever made. I used dental floss daily, but it’s such a messy process, and using the water flosser is so effortless at flushing away food debris – and  also plaque from around the teeth and gums. I have very sensitive teeth, and I even over brushed my teeth once with an electronic toothbrush enough to skim off aCONTINUE READING…
