lamone the Future of Skincare Science from thailand It’s not about the Stem Cells, it’s about the DNA As Thailand continues to be one of the leaders in all things Beauty and Spa, Lamone is one example of deep science at the forefront when it comes to exfoliation, brightening and bringing a clean youthfulness to the skin. When traveling to Thailand recently, Enjoy Beauty International discovered the beautiful Lamone product in the spa at JW Marriott. We tried the two-step product, and have been solid with it ever since. We found that Lamone has special lactobacillus cultures, which delivers the incredible results of the cleanser. Within the cleanser, macrophages are stimulated in the skin. The Macrophages digest DNA’s, which contain CpG (a nutrient for cells). Now, growth factor (Cytokines) are generated which rejuvenate stem cells from destructive conditions. The result is diminishing dark spots and an end to pigmentation. In step two we tried the DNA serum, which has powerful active ingredients of DNA-L and F-Antiox Complex. The serum penetrates deep into the skin to activate stem cell division together with a high concentrated antioxidant complex from fermented berries, (Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin D) to prevent free radical skin cell damage. The Lamone hi-potency serum is the equivalent of lactobacillus in over 300 cups of yoghurt. www.magicrootthailand.com

he ancient art of purifying, cleansing, and harmonizing your living space has returned and is passionately thriving as high-end homeowners are clearing out clutter, adding spiritual spaces, and transforming architectural style and spacial decor with feng shui designs that nourish, enhance, and enrich the lives of those who dwell therein. the oppressive weight of riotous home environments that scream for attention, produce negativity and turmoil, and drain your energy are being replaced by physical environments that encourage beauty, cocooning, protection, soothing relaxation, and restful mental and spiritual peace.

Comfort and proportion, placement and harmony, along with sleek, minimalist decor are introduced, creating a calm, balanced, uncluttered setting against an imposing world.
hoMe, sWeeT hoMe Serene living is in. Chaotic living is out. Some believe it to be an outcry against our increasingly mobile age. Today’s home designs incorporate techniques that harness the chi and invoke empowering, loving energy for inhabitants.
Select homeowners are collaborating with talented architects, landscape architects, interior designers, and feng shui experts to embrace a new kind of home decor using centuries-old traditions with luxurious, modern style. 16 enj oy b e au t y i n t e r n a t i o n a l .c o m
Sparsely furnished interiors and clean lines are the mantra as influential homeowners seek balanced living within their own home sanctuary.
Noise pollution is neutralized as the myriad of modern day sounds we humans emit with our traffic, machinery, appliances, loud music and voices are all dissolved. Frenzied occupants relax, unwind and find their nirvana as programmed soft background sound vibrations support peace and harmony.

the Wrinkle Prevention Pillow We took the Wrinkle Pillow all the way to Bali! Results? The General Manager of the 5-star resort where we stayed loved it and is now a user. Why does everyone love this pillow so much? Because it was designed to give you the most restful night’s sleep while helping to prevent the occurrence of permanent sleep lines and wrinkles caused by nightly compression against your pillow. Here’s the difference; the patented design lifts and cradles your head so that your face never touches the pillow and permanent lines and wrinkles don't develop on the face, neck and chest during sleep. The contoured center makes sleeping on your back more comfortable and the built-in gentle elevation helps to reduce the signs of morning eye puffiness. The pillow is also encased in a satiny cover, which helps preserve the texture and style of your hair better than a traditional pillowcase. And finally, the pillow’s unique design helps to prevent tossing and turning. And, here’s some additional benefits we noticed: your night creams and products will last longer as they will not rub off on the pillow. It has a beautiful satiny pillowcase, which is great for your skin and does not snag your hair. The pillow is wonderful for anyone with eyelash extensions because your face (and eyes) do not touch the pillow. It is a one size fits all, and perfect for all skin types. wrinklepreventionpillow.com
It’s – beyond organic! “Once you use this moisturizer you may never want to use a designer label moisturizer again”
We loved this softer than silk moisturizer with the delightful aroma of coconut complimented by lavender. Once again, Beyond Organics delivers a great product through its unique moisture lock system enhanced by the infusion of vitamins A, B1, B2, B6 and E along with minerals and fatty acids, which allows the skin to breathe. The difference is its fantastic structure that gives this product its god like status among its’ vast fans. And we found the cream to be amazingly wonderful across all skin types, especially sensitive, dry or mature skin. This pinnacle of skin creams is rapidly surging toward the top of everybody’s shopping list as its growing reputation spreads worldwide!
Lovingly handmade in Cornwall, England, each pot is generously filled with the unique infusions and macerations. And, No parabens, No chemicals. No nasties. Recycled materials. Suitable for vegetarians. 100% Organic and the first UK company to be certified 100% natural with Nature! www.beyondorganicskincare.com

he chance to visit Bali has been a dream of mine for many years. The idea was formed after spending a month in Jakarta and the Indonesian island of East Irian Jaya, New Guinea over 15 years ago. It was the beautiful pictures I saw of Bali back then, that lived in my mind all these years that made me want to go back. enjoybeautyinterna tional .com

A New Invitation What brought me to Indonesia this time was an invitation to teach Chinese Fan Dance as a Guest Artist at Spa Village Tembok Resort, a property of the prestigious yTL Hotel Group of Malaysia. But before heading up the coast to Tembok where it is fairly remote, I ventured to the little village of Ubud, for I was told it was really special. I was not disappointed.
“To be candid, this was not the perfect chamber-of-commerce well organized, time managed arranged trip. This trip was completely different, and much more gratifying. I winged it from start to finish.�
On the way to Ubud The cab journey from Denpasar International Airport to Ubud took about ninety minutes. From Denpasar to Ubud, I passed open-air workshops with beautiful Balinese furniture, Hindu temples, and what seemed like an unceasing line of little shops and stalls. I was intrigued to see people sweeping frenziedly outside every door.

“I walked for hours, taking in such visions as orchids growing out of trees, private retreats, ancient statues of Hindu gods and winding waterways amongst dense jungle foliage.”
I checked into a boutique resort called Grand Sunti Resort, which was really nice and not too touristy. I quickly stashed my baggage, both figuratively and literally, and went to the outdoor spa, which I had seen behind walls on a path leading through Koi ponds. I chose the traditional body scrub called Boreh, a divine blend of cloves, rice, ginger and galangal. What a beautiful treatment, provided by a Ba28 enj oy b e au t y i n t e r n a t i o n a l .c o m

The Journey to Spa Village Tembok Resort I wanted to stay longer to experience the ceremonies of Ubud, but my invitation at Spa Village Tembok Resort was waiting. The next day, Tembok sent a driver to pick me up, and we set out for the long drive to the north end of Bali. It was an exciting three-hour journey around the prodigious volcano of Mount Batur to get to the Spa Village Tembok Resort. We traveled along twisty narrow roads over mountains and through valleys, passing through countless little villages. In this area of Bali, you forego the crowded big named resorts.

My Arrival There are no close-by villages, no stores and Internet is a very slow dial-up affair. yes, up here on the north end of the island, it’s just the purity of a glorious unspoiled beach and a fabulous resort! The Spa Village Tembok Resort is one of the finest retreats you could ever visit. The inviting and gracious hospitality and first-class service were in evidence from the moment I arrived, when I sat in the huge open-air reception area and received a refreshing glass of Jamu, a Balinese health tonic. Next, my feet were cleansed along with a foot and neck massage at the same time. What a gracious welcome after the long drive. Situated in an oasis of peace and tranquility, with just the gentle soundtrack of the nearby ocean, Spa Village Tembok Resort promotes a deep sense of balance. you simply cannot be uptight here. The quiet solitude brings you immediately into the sense of calm needed for a two-week retreat.

“Visitors are mostly from cities in the E.U. and Southeast Asia – they come here to escape their official life.”
The all-inclusive 5-star resort serves three meals a day on the beautiful Balinese veranda that overlooks the ocean, and while dining at night, you can see the distant lights of fishing boats dotted about the horizon as they gather yet another harvest. Muffled chanting and incense emanating from the nearby temples add to the serenity.

During the day, the resort offers all types of activities, including my Chinese Fan Dance and Bamboo Bo Staff martial arts classes, which went quite well. The young Balinese men were some of my biggest fans, and loved that I was bringing “Kung Fu” to the island. The resort is an enchanting paradise, due in no small part to Sharron Hopley, the resident manager. She’s totally at one with the environment and runs the whole show with incredible ease. I can’t praise her or her staff highly enough.

Neo Plus® Skin Care Technology keeps adding to it's already scientifically advanced professional grade antiaging luxury products new active ingredients of: growth factors, stem cells, peptides, anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories. These active ingredients are at effective concentration levels used in clinical studies and the products are available only through doctors and spas. The Cellasis Collagen Forming Regime is a two step fragrance free regimen which integrates several highly potent active ingredients whose efficacy has been clinically proven to promote collagen and elastin synthesis. Following the daily regimen, we discovered that our skin was hydrated and appeared to have more luminosity, even tone and clarity with increased dermal volume and density. The Cellasis Collagen Forming Serum and Cellasis Collagen Forming Crème are used as pre-post protocols for procedures including Ulthera, non-invasive lasers, light facial rejuvenation, and various peeling procedures; and are also recommended to use as the daily home skin care regimen. We found the Lixare Swiss Time – Erasing Eye Cream to be a highly effective and delicate eye cream, with Argireline®, to reduce wrinkles. Stem cells and a proprietary botanical eye contour complex, dramatically reduced puffiness and dark circles. We especially loved this eye cream for its exceptional all-day and all-night hydration; that keeps the eye area moist around the clock. www.neoplusskincare.com

e ‘ve been watching the China fashion scene and love what we’re seeing. This year, Shanghai has rushed ahead of Tokyo, Singapore, and Hong Kong to become Asia’s most stylish city according to a new survey by Global Language Monitor. The Monitor just published it’s 10th annual survey to find the most fashionable cities in the world and in mainland China, Shanghai jumped ahead 12 spaces from last year to land the position of the 10th most stylish city overall. Hong Kong, which was ahead of Shanghai last year, has actually lost some of its style credibility, dropping eight spots this year down to 20th place. Surprisingly, Seoul came in last place on the list overall at 55th, dropping 21 spaces from last year. While the usual fashion capitals of New york, Paris, and London were the first, second, and third choices on the list, Shanghai beat out cities such as Milan, Madrid, Moscow, and Stockholm.

Is this wrap too good to be true? That’s what I thought, but after using It Works, our Enjoy Beauty International team was pretty impressed. The wrap is delivered in individual pieces that can be used for any body part. We had fun here at Enjoy Beauty as we each tried a different body part. We put on our wrap, then waited 45 minutes. The non-woven cloth wrap is infused with a powerful botanically based formula, which we found delivers true firming and smoother skin. The hydration on the skin was wonderful! The good part, is that it lasts! This is not a temporary fix. As all good things, the more you use the wrap, the better the results will be. www.Sallybridges.com

The Spirit of the Land The natural beauty of Sedona is extraordinary from any perspective, but the closer you get, the deeper your experience will be. Visitors say the spirits of the land speak to them. The Native Americans who know the true story of this area are sharing their tribal wisdom, showing others how to live in harmony with the earth. Throughout the area, red-walled canyons hold well-preserved cli dwellings where centuries of civilizations as far back as AD 1400 dwelled. Known as the hunter-gatherers, tribes such as the Sinagua, yavapai-Apache and the Hopi, all left their mark in their own distinctive rock-art style. Today, Sedona is internationally known for the uplifting power of its Vortex meditation sites and alternative healers. Living this close to the beauty of the land has inspired many profoundly talented healers to live in Sedona. As our body-temples are complex multi-dimensional organisms, Sedona healers apply their gifts to every level of the body/mind/spirit spectrum. enjoybeautyinternational .com

The Vortex Energy – It’s about how you perceive it The Sedona vortex sites are known as special places within the earth where the life force of the planet is particularly strong. Some of these energy centers reportedly carry an electric charge. It is in these Vortex sites, or enhanced energy locations, that it is possible for one to facilitate deep prayer, meditation, mind/body healing, and exploring one’s relationship with the Soul. Recently the PBS program Nova, featured a breakthrough in physics called "String Theory" (also known as super-strings) that is revolutionizing all of science on the same order of magnitude that Einstein's discoveries did in the early 1900's. The key spiritual implications of super-strings is that the world's top scientists agree that all things exist in a minimum of 10 or more dimensions. Simply stated Vortex sites are locations having energy flows in those deeper dimensions that the Soul can soar on. If one is at all sensitive, it is easy to feel the energy at these vortexes and to experience an uplifting soul moment. The energy absorbed in this way can have a positive effect for many days following. People come from all over the world to experience this massively loving and life-altering energy.

Meet Nick James, founder of Body Bliss in Sedona
72 enj oy b e au t y i n t e r n a t i o n a l .c o m
nick, you have had an amazing journey with body bliss – how did your connection to botany and plants originate? Everyone in my family was deeply connected with nature, and with plants in particular. My grandfather, an Air Force officer and keen amateur botanist, was my first teacher. Following him in search of rare plants as a child, I began to absorb his passion and understanding of the plant world. Among his many influences on me, his interest in Asia, comparative religion, and the Zen tradition have stayed with me all my life. My love of plants eventually led me to completing my degree in Botany at Oxford University under the tutelage of Dr. Barry Juniper.

What can you share about how to feel the energetics of plants and what do you think a person can gain from having a connection with plant life? Plants reflect beauty and practicality in every aspect of life. I sometimes spend time with one plant aroma to the exclusion of all others – trying to become sensitive to how that aroma affects my thinking, my feeling and my physical state. My interaction with plants, and especially their essences, enriches my whole day and, I feel sure, benefits my well-being. I cook with essential oils, travel with essential oils, sleep with essential oils! For me, aromatherapy is an integral part of a healthy, happy and abundant lifestyle.

I can see where your life path is what has influenced the lines you have created. I’m thinking that the chakra line naturally came from your years in India? how did that part of the journey become an influence? One of the reasons for me being in India was my interest in meditation and the esoteric. These interests led me to Sedona, and blossomed even more as a result of being there. This fascination with exploring chakra energies as a way to understanding the self was shared with my original Body Bliss partner, and the Chakra Balance Vibrational Oils were the first creation of Body Bliss. This line also uses the vibrational qualities of gemstones to attune and protect the oils. My time in India also led to a profound appreciation of Ayurvedic healing, and as a result we were commissioned to make traditionally prepared herbal oils for the Chopra Healing Center in the US. Our Ayurvedic products are an extension of my deep felt love of India.

Symbolism of the body bliss logo the symbolism of the logo is simple. the word boDy is emboldened because it is the more physical or tangible part of us. the word blISS is lighter as it represents the more ethereal part of us. they are joined because we operate in the place where the physical - the body, touch, product - and the etheric - scent, vibration, energy – meet and blISS is released. the tiny flame design over the word boDy represents ‘ajna’ the home of concealed wisdom in Vedic teaching, and the place where all inspiration for body bliss products comes from.

With being in the southwest I can imagine you really took to the dierence in plant life here. The Southwest was quite an adjustment for a boy from rainy England! Over the years I have fallen in love with its grandeur and the tenacity of the plants that survive here. The local Indian cultures of course knew the potential of every plant of the desert and canyon, and these plants became the inspiration for our Native Botanicals collection. Extracts of white sage, prickly pear and wild chaparral are just some of the healing botanicals we regularly use.

I can see where this has significance within the story you told me about the barefoot doctors from china. I love this story, can you share this knowledge? After the Cultural Revolution in China healthcare provision was primarily only available in urban areas. To address this Chairman Mao instigated a program to train rural farmers in basic healthcare – infection control, basic medical procedures, midwifery and the like. They were given a set of medicines, both Western and Chinese, that they would dispense. Often they grew their own herbs in the backyard. It is interesting that although these Barefoot Doctors, as they came to be known, still spent about half their time involved with farm work, about twenty percent of them later went on to enter medical school. Anyway, I have always loved this idea of people going barefoot from town to town spreading wellness and compassion. I spend enjoybeautyinternational .com

aRoMa much of my time travelling from spa to spa, visiting communities of spa therapists, and spreading my enthusiasm for the therapeutic power of botanical aromatics. I envisaged a character that I called the Barefoot Botanist who spends his time coaxing the goodness from plants and sharing it around. He is a lot like me! This led to the development of our Barefoot Botanist collection, home to some of my favorite healing herbs such as calendula, chamomile and lavender. Is there a final product line that brings it all together? Last year we took time to re-invent and re-package everything we do. As part of this process we lighted on the words Intentional Aromatherapy as the best descriptor of what Body Bliss as a company does. Everything we do involves the use of truly therapeutic aromatherapy oils, and everything we make, every formula, contains a specific intention for a positive outcome for a person’s well-being. This led to our Intentional Aromatherapy collection. It contains many of my favorite blends, from the extremely exotic and luxurious I LOVE blend of sandalwood, white magnolia and neroli to the precisely practical mélange of immortelle, lavender, marjoram and wintergreen in I PLAy.

The valley between the “male mountain” of Long’s Peak, (14,500 ft ), which makes up the western view, and the “female ntain” of Twin Sisters Peak (11,429 ft high), which makes up eastern view.

The Retreat is Conceptualized Master Chen based the foundation of the wellness retreat on the simple concept of simplicity. With the beauty of the surrounding high mountains, forests and broad valley, the land brings an immediate sense of calm and appreciation for simple joys. The word Simplicity describes it perfectly. Time stands still here.

Just What You Need After a Great Hike As hikers come from around the world, we provided Asian-style foot treatments on the expansive deck of the lodge, which looks directly at Longs Peak, the highest in Rocky Mountain National Park. Hikers were able to replenish tired feet while they enjoyed wine, cheese, and crackers. The focus was to offer a “spiritual time-out,” a rejuvenation of the mind and body at the end of the day.

an Unfortunate disaster strikes In September 2013, at the end of the busy summer season, the Hundred year Rains came to the mountains of Colorado. It brought the greatest floods ever seen. after many days of steady hard rain the mountain called twin Peaks rising 11,500 Ft. above aspen lodge, came thundering down in a torrential avalanche of water, mud, trees and debris. (see in picture above) the lodge was immersed in water and mud along with taking out the sewer and water systems. the Resort had to close. Winter came soon after with the typical deep snow and 60 mile an hour winds that come down through the Rocky Mountains. true to the taoist nature along with holding the vision, a small group has stayed at the lodge along with Master Chen and is working throughout the winter to re-open the retreat in the Spring of 2014. 90 en j oy b e au t y i n t e r n a t i o n a l .c o m

Skin-2-Slim the Hot new 3-step Regimen to Reduce the appearance of Cellulite 3 Steps – Amazing Results step 1 – The system starts with using Cell Renu, which begins the renewal process by dissolving the outer layer of dead, dull skin, which is a natural environmental barrier, which prevents the absorption of the healthy ingredients. The natural enzymes gently dissolves debris that clogs pores resulting in a smooth, fresh, bright-looking skin for your whole body. And, we found that Cell Renu is not just for the body, it is also gentle enough to use on your face providing results similar to microdermabrasion. With Swiss Apple Stem Cell Culture Extracts and Peptides, you’ll always have healthy skin cell metabolism which increases collagen production to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. step 2 - The next step is the Sculpting Gel, which dissolves the excess lipid accumulation in the outer layers of your skin to help firm, lift and tighten, which reduce the signs of cellulite. The Sculpting Gel is rich in peptides that restore the elastin-collagen network, increase cell structure, and promotes your body's own production of collagen. The Peptides will boost the growth of connective tissue and help increase skin firmness. step 3 - The Daily Slim continues the fight against the return of excess lipids that contribute to the appearance of cellulite that if left alone, will return. Daily Slim is rich with moisturizers and humectants that keep your skin hydrated all day and night. Natural polyphenols stimulate cell growth, suppress inflammation, smoothes and tones the skin, and provides amino acids necessary to heal, reconstruct, and rejuvenate your skin. Regu-Shape helps reduce lipid accumulation, reduces the size of lipids, and smoothes your skin. Tea, Ginseng, Mango, and Rosemary extracts help rebuild your skin, strengthens your skins elasticity, and slows the aging process. skin-to-slim.com

y Bridges Finding Inspiration when you only have six months to live Recently, I met with Sally Bridges who inspired me with her unparalleled enthusiasm and spirit for life. In this fast-paced world, everyone is challenged - no one gets by easily. It was while I was talking with Sally, that I was reminded we all have the option about how we look at any situation we are in. Sally knows both the risks and rewards of reinventing herself both professionally and personally. For more than 20 years as an executive within the health and wellness insurance industry, she managed over 22,000 physicians with provider relationships and patient reimbursements.
enjoybeautyinterna tional .com
95
Seeking a change, Sally perused her passion in the health and beauty industry. After receiving her estheticians license, she graduated with honors and was invited to travel abroad to participate in an education with plastic surgeons and professional skin care companies in Belgium, Paris, Italy, Tokyo, Ireland, England and Canada. Through this experience she opened her own company - Bridges to Beauty. Over the next fifteen years, Sally opened six different skincare clinics. These years of enduring many trials and tribulations are what made Sally an accomplished leader in team building while at the same time, facilitating beauty and wellness for her clients.
The Turning Point Mid life, Sally was dealing with her own health challenges when she was told she would never have children. However, at 40 years old she proved the medical industry wrong and gave birth to a beautiful healthy girl, only to be blindsided a few months later by the news that she had a very advanced form of cancer - - and, would not live past six months. As Sally states, “Of course, I was devastated! As I went inward, I found if you ask how do I feel at this moment, there is an abundance of internal guidance to tap into. There’s an inner knowingness if you allow it.” 96 enj oy b e au t y i n t e r n a t i o n a l .c o m
“ At this time, it took before I received the new It took doing all the thin but I also took my own intuiti I call it the internal it’s the next chapter in
k three years of work ws that I was cancer free. ngs experts tell you to do, ive route of how to live or die. l guidance system reinventing yourself.”
Beating Cancer - Again! Sally continued, “After being cancer free for several years, I once again received the devastating news that another tumor had developed next to my Carotid Artery. This was 4 1/2 years ago. The tumor was increasing in size every three months, and if it did not stop, I would have to have a very serious operation to remove the tumor, which was growing on a major artery.” “At this time I was introduced to a product - a high potency powder with massive doses of fruits and vegetables. With nothing to loose, I started using the product.” “It was four months later when I had another ultrasound. And, for the first time, the tumor did not grow in size. It remained the same!! My doctor was amazed and said they would not perform surgery at this time. Instead, they would monitor the growth and test every 3-6 months. During this time, I stayed on the diet and inner soul work.” “When I had the next ultrasound, the tumor decreased in size! And then, every test after this, the tumor continued to decrease until now, 4 1/2 years later, I received the best news ever, that the test results depicted no signs of any tumor. It was completely gone. I could not believe it and neither could my doctors. My endocrinologist stated, "What ever you are doing - don't stop.”

The Process Thinking about the process Sally shared, “I believe for me, I was giving my body what it needed with a green whole food nutrition diet. I believe this was the main aspect of what healed me. I know that fruits and vegetables help alkaline your body and that when your body is in an alkaline state it's very difficult for cancer to grow. This is what I believed saved me in my particular situation.” “Now my mission is to share and help as many people as I can along their own amazing journey to health and wellness.” How does one beat the long-term odds of cancer returning? For Sally, she continues her work through the compelling and demanding schedule of her transformational work both inside and out. This is the now the foundation and inspiration she gives to over 15,000 followers who take her advice.
100 en j oy b e au t y i n t e r n a t i o n a l .c o m
The Next Chapter Sally shared, “I think today whenever we ask “what now?” One of the things we have to be willing to do is to expand beyond what we used to be and create more possibilities for ourselves. When people go through change, it is most common for people to stay the same because failing can be more painful than continuing, even when someone stays in a situation that is not working.” “A big change was deciding to tell others about the products I took to ultimately heal myself. The point is, I was scared to death when I starting making the changes in my life, and then, stayed with it. When you commit to go forward with your life again, you’ll be taking some risks, and until you are willing to fall off the cliff with that oh-my-god feeling, you won’t know what you really want or your new direction. you need to commit to being better than you were yesterday – everyday.” Sallybridges.com
