t’s already half way through the year And 2021 has continued to mold us in this new normal we never anticipated. We have pushed through and been resilient even though the fact of the matter is that we have never faced such difficult spaces and mental challenges. Personally I have seen myself grow into a person who can overcome because I still stand. I have held on to the most important of roles, which is mother and in this issue we celebrate the fathers. The figures who give us strength and reassurance. At the Club we look forward to continue bringing you more interactive content and keeping you up to date on whats going on in the world across the various topics we already cover.

here is often a tendency to feel like Father’s day is an afterthought. That fleeting holiday companion that comes after the hype of Mothers’ day. While it can be discussed which is the bigger holiday, the importance of father’s in molding and mentoring their children is uncontested. Steering away from the traditional socks and ties gift sets, there’s a lot more to this celebration. In a world rocked with so many new challenges such as the pandemic, questions around masculinity and economic strife - father figures have never been needed more. Father-child relationships that are close are associated with good temperance , empathy, happiness and a generally balanced approach to relationships and life. Conversely, where fathers are missing in children’s lives resulting disruptions can be a lifelong bane.
club
June - July 2021
As a family, lifestyle-oriented destination, we are taking the month to pay homage to the good that our oft-forgotten fathers do. From leadership, coaching, mentoring and so much more...the list is endless. While no amount of gifting can equal that impact, one can’t be blamed for trying. Where assistance may be required, we’ll be sure to help you along the way...be it through a curated gift guide, daily product posts and so much more. In the same spirit of protecting family and ensuring the wellbeing of children and dependants, we are happy to be introducing a number of new products set to do just that. Among these are our EDSure insurance products, including motor vehicle insurance and cellphone insurance. Gone are the days when you’d need to queue and withstand the inconvenience that comes with renewing insurance. Just pop in to your nearest Edgars branch and get the world-class service that you have come to expect and appreciate from us.
We’ve also relooked our EHCP and Comfortsure funeral plan benefits structure, to ensure that you rest easy and know that you and your family are covered from accidental injury, illness and any other eventualities. With peace of mind, one can focus on the finer things ... looking good and rocking that killer winter look. Yes, the temperatures are dipping and we are steep into winter now. Without seeming like we are tooting our own horn, we’ve gone all out to keep you decked out this cold season. From comfortable55 activewear to dapper office looks that will warm the entire boardroom, your Edgars access pass is your fashion ticket this season. So pop into your nearest branch or visit our online store to access a whole new dimensions of convenience shopping and amazing fashion. See you in store. With love from Edgars

BEAUTY BUZZ We take a glimpse at what’s hot and happening in the world of beauty. Roll-ons formulated with antiperspirant temporarily block sweat pores, reducing perspiration and preventing bacteria from growing. If you have sensitive skin, look for a deodorant designed for sensitive skin. Roll-ons have a gentle semi-wet formula since the skin on our underarms are extremely delicate. The best underarm roll on is one that will help you fight bacteria.
ALOE AND HYDRATION The aloe plant is very water-dense, so it's an ideal way to prevent or treat dehydration. Staying hydrated helps your body detox by providing a way for you to purge and flush out impurities.The juice also packs a hefty punch of nutrients that optimize your body's organ output.Because aloe vera gel is mostly water, it helps to hydrate the skin without that post-application greasy feeling. It helps lock moisture into the skin, while also acting as a glue that makes the top layer of skin cells stick together, ultimately smoothing and softening your skin.Aloe vera has been found to have many health benefits for the skin, from helping to heal wounds to moisturizing. club

ROLL-ON DEODORANT
USING A BODY SPRAY The key to keeping body odour and sweat under control is using a good antiperspirant deodorant and topping it off with a few sprays of Body spray. But why should you use both? It’s easy to get confused between an Antiperspirant and a Body spray. Body spray is applied to the chest and adds that extra bit of fragrance to make an impression. Edgars Club @ 7 years

Get that heart rate up first thing in the morning.While the time of day makes no difference when it comes to results, you may be more likely to make excuses as time goes on. Plus, a morning workout might be perfect for some “you” time.Add some muscle-building activities to your workouts. Free weights, resistance band exercises, muscle sculpt classes or using your body weight with push-ups, planks and squats all work.A personal trainer could help you put together a beginner’s program
KEEP A JOURNAL Tracking keeps you accountable, and studies show that those who keep journals are more successful at weight loss than those who don’t. Pay attention to your thoughts Thoughts are powerful; bring awareness to yours. Do you encourage yourself with positivity or hold yourself back with negativity? A change in mindset could be all it takes to get your health on track.

MUSIC MOTIVATES Exercise is a great stress reliever and mood booster. When you’ve had a rough day, a workout may be just what you need! Music can help take your workout up a notch if it’s music that appeals to you. One of the best tips is to have a go-to playlist that instantly gets you in the zone to work out. It’s like having a trainer right in your ears. club

June - July 2021
through any past grievances that might still be causing trouble, but with a little bit of work, being friends with your mom might be a real possibility, according to experts. Mom and dad — they're two of the most important people in your life. You probably see at least one of
them every day and, over your lifetime, they're likely to influence you more than anyone else you will meet. But parents do a lot more than just pass along their hobbies. Moms and dads need to care for their kids from the minute they're born. It's a parent's job to love and guide kids — and Edgars Club @ 7 years
downtime teen talk most parents will do this as long as they live, even when the "kids" are grown up and have children of their own. That means you have many years ahead to share with your mom and dad. Here are five ways you can stay close, get along, and build a strong relationship: Spend time together. It might be easy to be physically in the same place as your mom or dad (like at home — it's where you all live, after all.) But how much time do you spend just enjoying each other's company? Instead of playing a computer game or watching TV, maybe ask your mom and dad to play with you. Go outside together, try a board game, or read a book out loud. If your parents are divorced, make the most of the time you do spend together. In between, talk on the phone (or video chat) and email each other to stay in touch. Share your feelings and ask for help. Many kids club

say they'd like their parents to help them when they're upset. But your mom or dad might not know that you're having a problem. Tell a parent if you're sad or struggling with something. If you don't usually do this, it can feel funny at first. Try it and you'll be glad you did. Be kind. Little things might mean a lot to your mom or dad. You can brighten a parent's day with a hug, a card, or a joke. It's also lovely when a kid offers to help fold the laundry or cleans up his or her room without being asked. And if you try not to fight with your brothers or sisters, your parents might be so thrilled they'll do a silly dance around the kitchen! Show you care. Some families are always kissing, hugging, and saying "I love you." Other families aren't as lovey-dovey. But it's important to show that you care for each other. In addition to kisses and hugs, kids and parents show their love by
respecting each other, and being caring, polite, and thoughtful. Do your best at whatever you do. You don't have to be perfect, but when you do your best, you make your parents proud. It makes them happy to see how you're turning into such a great kid. Why? Because it lets them know they're doing a good job. What if It Doesn't Work? Most of the time, you and your parents can have a good talk and make at least some progress. But for some 127 77 77 kids, it might not work out. Some parents have troubles of their own. Others just can't be available in the ways their kids need and deserve. Others have a hard time being flexible. Let's face it, talking about personal stuff can feel embarrassing. But remember, your parents know you pretty well — and they were your age once, too! If you can't talk to your parent, seek out other adults you can trust. Edgars Club @ 7 years
