Welcome to the Spring edition of Bazaar magazine.

Spring can be the busiest season with the lengthening days tempting us back outside into the garden and out and about. This edition is packed with ideas offers and events to put a Spring in our step.

Firstly I’d like to congratulate Stokesley Farmers Market recently voted the National Farmers Market of the Year well done to all the stallholders. The success reflects well on the town bringing lots of extra visitors on market day held on the 1st Saturday of the month.

Spring also brings the annual Leven Art exhibition in the Town Hall where it’s possible to view and purchase quality art from local artists.

With three Bank Holidays coming up make sure you keep this edition handy so you don’t miss any offers and events through the coming Spring months.

The next edition will be Summer due out late June so if you would like to contribute or advertise please get in touch.

Can Bowen Therapy help you?

By releasing stress at a very deep level, via its calming effect on the Autonomic Nervous System, Bowen sets the scene for the body to heal itself. In contrast to many other hands-on therapies, Bowen does not attempt to force the body to change; rather it asks the body to recognise and make the changes necessary to bring it back to homoeostasis (physiological equilibrium).

Bowen is suitable for all ages, from a baby with colic to an elderly person with arthritis, and there are no known contra-indications.

This remarkable technique can be quick and effective in helping the following: • Muscular and skeletal problems in neck, shoulder, hip, knees, ankle and back, including sciatica • Frozen shoulder, tennis and golf elbow, R.S.I. and carpal tunnel • Whiplash and sports injuries • Problems with posture and body alignment

• Migraine and recurring headaches • Bell's Palsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's Disease and the difficulties suffered by stroke victims • Respiratory, bronchial and related conditions such as hayfever and asthma • Digestive problems such as IBS • Arthritis • Hormonal, pregnancy and fertility problems • Stress management, ME, fatigue and sleep problems Bowen can be of assistance in many cases of emotional stress, where relaxation is a prime factor in easing pain and anxiety. It is also often a great help in improving the quality of life for those who are terminally ill.

Karen Owens is a fully qualified Bowen Practitioner and a European College of Bowen Studies Teacher. Local courses will be starting early 2014. For more information visit the ECBS website http://www.thebowentechnique.com/.

Or contact Karen on the number below.

OPENING HOURS: Monday – Saturday. Late appointments available.

Sunday 29th June 2014 The Applegarth

hat started as a simple idea between some enthusiastic foodie friends is now set to impress for the third year running.

The Homegrown Food Festival was conceived over a cup of tea in a Northallerton café back in August 2011. The aim was to create an event that unites the community in celebrating and sampling the great food and drink produced on its doorstep.

The event organisers are a small group of dedicated volunteers who had the faith that a simple idea of showcasing ‘homegrown’ could lead to something that would bring the community together and reach beyond Northallerton.

The Homegrown Food Festival is a winner of the Towns Alive, Social and Community Regional Award from Action for Market Towns. The judges really liked the 'Grow Your Own’ element to the Festival and the fact that the festival engaged with schools and the local community in gardening activities both before the event and on the day. The award highlights that in order to start something it takes just a simple idea and a committed group of people.

The Judges’ said: “A festival by the community for the community; inclusive, dynamic, flexible, fun and innovative through the breadth of its scope. Delivered to a high standard.”

By keeping stallholder fees affordable, the festival provides a platform for new food and drink producers to launch their businesses.

Designed to appeal to the widest audience and promote locally grown and produced food, the festival is free of charge to the public and hosts practical gardening workshops, cookery demonstrations from regional celebrity chefs, live music and children’s activities, making it a rewarding and relaxed event for all the family.

The festival organisers are absolutely delighted that TV Celebrity Chef Brian Turner will be making a star appearance, and heading ‘Up North’ to be the headline guest in the Food Theatre, wowing the audience with his cookery demonstration, showing us all how you can cook really good food, in a simple and uncomplicated way at home, using local ingredients wherever possible. It’s all about ‘Grow it, prepare it, cook it and eat it!’

Brian said: “I can’t wait to be part of the Home Grown Food Festival in Northallerton, North Yorkshire. This is where the campaign is as good as it gets, great producers of fab food you grow it and we will cook it!

“It’s always great to visit God’s own County!” he added.

For the first time this year, the festival will feature a children’s cookery theatre. Children will be able to get stuck in, turning simple ingredients into great food they can make at home and impress family and friends.

For a taste of the ‘Good Life’, the Grow Zone inspires visitors to grow their own fruit, vegetables and herbs, no matter how small their garden.

There will be demonstrations and advice for budding composters and beekeepers and if all that leaves people hungry, they will be able to whip up a fruit shake on the bicycle powered smoothie machine.

The Homegrown Food Festival wouldn’t be a festival without the wonderful food and drink producers from the region. Stallholders will be selling a wide variety of delicious locally produced food, drink and eaton-the-spot street food. The Homegrown Tipple Tent will be serving up locally brewed beers and spirits, and live music will be performed throughout the day. Eat, relax and enjoy the show.

The appliance of science is now so important in the world of beauty and House of Beauty is leading the way with the revolutionary Skin First system. In the Winter edition I wrote about the non surgical system for the treatment of wrinkles, fine lines and slack skin. In effect a face life without the surgery.

This time I am going to touch on the system being used for laser hair removal.

IPL & MPL Advanced Laser Hair Reduction Permanent Cosmetics

by Tara Canney Gel Nail Colour, Lashes, HD Brows, Spray Tan, Facial Peels, Bee Sting Facial, Gift Vouchers.

Put more simply the treatment is quick comfortable and completely painless. The only sensation that has been reported is a slight ping as if an elastic band was touching the skin, however I can confirm I felt nothing just a very slight warming of the skin. I also had no marking at all to the skin after the treatment. Quick, painless and simple certainly beats tweezers

Offers & Prices on www.h-o-b.co.uk

The treatment can be used on any area of the body or face. For optimum success I’ts recommended between 6 to 8 treatments with 4 to 6 weeks between, but this would be discussed with the consultant.

7 East End, Stokesley

It’s worth calling in to House of Beauty to have a chat about this new treatment and see what’s new for Spring.

Firstly I’ll mention the science. Multi pulsed light travels down the hair shaft and stimulates the melanin in the root of the hair which destroys the living cells around the hair bulb and the connection between the dermal papilla and hair bulb. This cuts of the blood supply resulting in hair reduction and eventual removal.

Stokesley Family Law

together, at 60 the prospect of still being together for another quarter century is seemingly a fate worse than death for some!

They say that there is safety in numbers. That may though be little comfort when it comes to the subject of marriage breakdown. Nonetheless the following may be of interest. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) has estimated that around 42 per cent of marriages in this country end in divorce, around 118,000 in 2011 alone.

It’s fair to say that the stigma of divorce has all but disappeared among the older generation. Add to that these baby-boomers having benefited from the rise in house prices, and often having decent pensions, and suddenly you have an apparent recipe for senior marital disaster. However, divorce for the over 60s can also be more traumatic as you are separating from someone you may have been married to for over thirty years rather than the average for a divorcing couple of 11 years.

The good news is that the proportion of marriages failing appears to be falling but some experts have put that down to the financial crash – suggesting people can’t as easily afford to divorce when times are tough. I wonder if the rate will now start to rise again as the financial climate improves. You’d think it would work the other way round!

The bad news is that the statistics also reveal a growth, indeed a surge, in divorce among older people, up by three quarters since 1991. It seems the causes are improved life expectancy, changing social attitudes and greater affluence. These “silver splitters” are also suffering from late mid-life crises and the impact of “empty nest syndrome”. Added

At one time it was rare to see clients who were divorcing after more than twenty years of marriage or who were much over 50. Now it is increasingly common. The considerations are sometimes different but it is no less a momentous decision.

Moreover, the importance of getting the right advice is just the same. If it is any comfort though remember this – alongside the company of many the same age being in the same boat, with the right legal help you are not alone.

uto Bodycraft in Stokesley has a fantastic Spring Offer for customers old & new; throughout the months of April & May they are offering £50 off Silver Seal Protection Treatments.

Silver Seal is a second skin to protect your car's paintwork and long lasting protections for your car's upholstery; it will keep your car looking good all the time and will reduce devaluation when you come to sell it.

Owning a car is an investment and it makes sense to protect your investment. Silver Seal is the ideal way to do that with your vehicle. The unique service provides protection for both the external paintwork and the fabrics (seats & carpets) inside your car. The products used are the professional's choice; manufactured by Autosmart, the Uk's leading supplier to the automotive industry. The protectants are applied by Auto Bodycraft's fully trained, authorised valeting experts and backed up by guarantee's of 1,2 or 3 years.

The invisible second skin that the protector provides protects your paint from rain, sun, sleet, ice and snow, leaving a striking "water bead" effect on the paintwork. Extensively tested and proven as a market-leading package, Silver Seal is the ideal way to protect your car's looks and value.

Auto Bodycraft have been offering the Silver Seal treatment for over five years and have a host of extremely satisfied customers. Owner Alex Atkin says; "It's a very popular treatment and is a great way to boost the re-sale value of your vehicle. After treatment the customer receives a Total Car Protection certificate and this is a great sign to future buyers that the car has been cared for to the highest standard".

Treatments start from £250.
