HOW TO KEEP YOUR BODY CLEAN AND FRESH WITH NATURAL REMEDIES!


Apple Cider Vinegar

Due to its antibacterial and antiseptic properties, apple cider vinegar can be used to fight vaginal odor. In fact, taking a bath with apple cider vinegar is one of the simplest ways to get rid of the bad odor. This will help fight off the toxins and bacteria that cause vaginal odor. It will also help restore the acidic quality of the vaginal flora. Mix two cups of apple cider vinegar in warm bath water. Soak in it for about 20 minutes. Follow this remedy several times a week to get quick results. You can also drink a glass of water mixed with one or

two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar daily. Baking Soda Baking soda is another ingredient that can be used to balance the pH level in your body. When the pH level is in balance, the problem of vaginal odor will dissipate. Add one-half cup of baking soda to your bathwater. Soak your lower body in it for about 20 minutes. Dry yourself thoroughly with a clean towel. This remedy will help fight a yeast infection and can


help get rid of odor

Yogurt Another good ingredient that can be used to treat vaginal odor is yogurt. Yogurt is rich in lactobacillus bacteria, which help fight candida infection (one of the most common causes of vaginal odor) and restore the normal vaginal pH level. Once the pH level is balanced, the vaginal odor will be gone. Eat two cups of unsweetened, plain yogurt daily. You can also take probiotic supplements. Another option is to soak a tampon in plain yogurt and

quickly.

insert it into your body. Leave it in for a few hours, and rinse the area thoroughly after removing the tampon. White Vinegar White vinegar has the power to neutralize odors by breaking down odor proteins. A white vinegar rinse will help eliminate vaginal odor. It will also help restore pH levels in the vagina. Mix one-half cup each of white vinegar and salt in lukewarm bath water. Soak in it for a few minutes.


Follow this remedy several times a week. Tea Tree Oil Tea tree oil contains strong antifungal as well as antiseptic properties, and thus it can be used to get rid of unpleasant vaginal odor. It will help get rid of bacteria that are contributing to the problem. Add three drops of tea tree oil to a cup of water. Use this solution to rinse the affected area daily or several times a week. Alternatively, dip a tampon in olive oil and then put a little tea tree oil on it. Insert the tampon and leave it in for at least one hour. Do this several times a week.

for dealing with vaginal infections as well as vaginal odor. The antifungal properties present in garlic will help fight a yeast infection and help your body get rid of bad bacteria. Eat garlic in raw or cooked form on a daily basis. You can eat one or two raw garlic cloves on an empty stomach with a glass of warm water. You can also add garlic cloves or its paste to your dishes and salads. Another option is to put a piece of garlic in the vagina for an hour or two. Do this daily or a few times a week until you get rid of the problem.

Shave Underarms Garlic Garlic is a natural antibiotic that can be great

A lot of hair under your arms can create a swampy environment for bacteria. Hair is porous, meaning it


easily absorbs odors and can even slow the evaporation of sweat. Hair traps odorants, especially when it’s located in your armpits. Burns

recommends shaving your underarms to stop body odor so the “bacteria doesn’t get trapped in the hair thus decreasing odor.”

Change Shoes

A common misconception is body odor comes from the armpits, but one of the foulest odors actually come from your feet. Changing your shoes will allow them to air and prevent the odors from staying concentrated in one area. This cuts down the bacteria that is in the shoe.

Burns’ rule of thumb: “Everyone should be switching up their shoes every 500 miles anyway.” Apply Vinegar Vinegar, whether it’s apple cider or white, can help lower the pH level of the skin for an


anti-bacteria environment. Dr. Mehmet Oz of The Dr. Oz Show recommends this home remedy because the bacteria cannot thrive in acidity, and the smell will dissipate. It’s best to splash the vinegar under the arms when you get out of the shower, but not immediately after you have shaved your underarms. This is safe for the skin as long as it’s unbroken. It’s best to do a test on a small patch of skin to make sure you do not react badly.

Apply Witch Hazel

The rule here is to bathe at least once a day. It is important to use anti-bacteria soaps that will not only wash away your sweats, but also keep your body free from bacteria. Remember that it

perfectly alright to sweat as long as the bacteria in your skin are killed. Make sure to soap bacteria prone areas such as neck, armpits, private areas and feet

Witch hazel and tea tree oil are natural sterilizers that can be applied on your armpits, since they are natural antiseptics. They lower the skin’s pH, which makes it impossible for bacteria to survive. Directly applying witch hazel on your skin can serve as a regular deodorant. For those who are prone to sweating, Burns suggests “wiping [underarms] down at least 4 times a day.”


Dry your body well

This is another unknown trick to prevent body odor. After taking your shower, you should towel off the areas that are prone to sweating and bacteria like we mentioned earlier. This is crucial as dry areas usually make it harder for the bacteria to breed. Deodorant is your best friend Make deodorant as your best friend. It does not necessarily prevent sweating, but it does at least block the odor triggered by the bacteria. You may also use an antiperspirant which is beneficial in reducing sweating. Some

antiperspirants contain deodorizer, which keeps you smelling good too!

Shave those underarms You might want to keep your underarms as dry as possible. This is because majority numbers of people with personal odor problem complain that armpit is where the odor comes from. Bear in mind that underarm hair can act as bacteria trapper, which will only make everything worse. Hence, shave or wax them consistently. Cut back on odortriggering foods


Did you know that red meat and ingredients such as garlic, onions, curry powder and spices (masala) may trigger body odor. So does alcohol and caffeine. They are associated with odor problem as these foods cause you to sweat a lot. So you probably would want to cut back on them.

Lemon juice Lemon juice is an universal remedy. It works effectively in getting rid of personal odor. This is because lemon juice contains citric acid, an active ingredient that makes your skin acidic when applied. With the presence of acid, the growth of bacteria becomes limited. Apply lemon juice on the areas you sweat a lot on daily basis. Lime juice Contrary to lemon juice, lime juice is a little more acidic. It

rarely causes irritation and works better in getting rid of odors. To try this remedy, halve a lime, and rub it onto your underarm and other odor-prone areas. Do this daily before going to bed. Shower as usual the next morning and make sure to powder and deodorize yourself.

Holy basils for underarm odor In India, holy basil is used as remedy for many conditions especial flu and lung cold. To use basil for body odor, you need to first crush some holy basil leaves. Later, mix in a few drops of tea tree oil and apply to your underarm. Leave it to dry and rinse off. You don’t need to soap your underarm after that. But you may use a deodorant after rinsing off.


Corn starch Corn starch especially when mixed with some lemon juice does miracle to your body. It is proven that corn starch controls the pH of your skin, thereby limiting the growth of the bacteria. Make a thick paste by combing lemon juice and corn starch. Rub this paste all over your body, and leave it on for about 5 minutes. Shower as usual after that. Turnip juice to rescue Traditional Ayurvedic experts suggest that you consume turnip juice orally or apply it externally to get rid ofpersonal odor. It’s the

Vitamin C in turnip that does all the magic. It controls the growth of bacteria and thus prevent odor. Apply or consume turnip juice on daily basis. Mint bath Just like basil leaves, mint too has some anti-septic properties. Mint helps in killing any type of bacteria found in the skin and reduce the content of toxins too. All that you have to do is boil mint leaves in four cups of water. Later, add the water into your bath water and let your body soak in it for at least 10 minutes. Do this every two days once and watch the magic happen!


Drink plenty of water Hydrated skin is usually problem-free. Hence, make sure to drink at least 8-10 tall glasses of water per day. Water flushes down toxins

found in body and keeps your skin hydrated. When toxins are rid, odor can be rid too

INGENIOUS WAYS TO MAKE YOUR MAN A DEDICATED GENTLEMAN THAT WILL COMMIT TO YOUR RELATIONSHIP ONE HUNDRED PERCENT AND MORE


A dedicated gentleman for kim If a man hasn’t talked about being “exclusive” with you yet, then he is likely still casually dating. But you can set things up from the

beginning of a relationship so that a man naturally wants a commitment from you and is the one asking g you for exclusivity. Here’s how…

MAINTAIN YOUR POWER IN THE RELATIONSHIP

Amal’s George


You never want to be in a situation where you are asking a man where you stand with him. Not only does this put you in a vulnerable position, but it assumes that he’s the one in control, and it will actually make him feel LESS attracted to you. Men are simply not attracted to women who try and

convince them to be in a more serious relationship with them. Instead, men are deeply and naturally attracted to women who live their lives and have certain “standards” when it comes to interacting with men. And one of the unspoken standards that is most attractive to a man is a woman who is what I call “selective.”

HOW BEING SELECTIVE MAKES HIM WANT ONLY YOU When a man has an easy time having a woman fall for him, or a man sees a woman acting in a way that says she will not be okay without his love and commitment, then a man is turned off. He senses that the reason she wants to move forward is more about satisfying unmet emotional needs than about true connection and appreciation.

On the other hand, when a woman is selective about how and when she moves into a more serious and committed relationship, she’s coming from a place of inviting the man to be with her, but at the same time being clear that her life is going to continue forward and be full and rich no matter


what a man does. This “attitude” is a subtle shift, but the response that a man will have to it will make all the difference. When a man senses that the woman he’s with is also carefully

deciding whether or not she should CHOOSE HIM or not, suddenly a man will jump into the “space” that brings a more committed relationship together.

MAKING HIM THINK IT’S ALL HIS IDEA

John legend is a great gentlem gentleman to his wife So aside from having the right “attitude”, how do you show a man that you’re selective and draw him closer to you? You can do it by saying something as simple as: “It’s completely your right to date more than one

woman at a time, but I want wa you to know that I’m looking for an exclusive relationship with the right person. So I just want to find out if we’re on the same page before taking things further.”


Notice that you’re not making any demands. You’re not displaying any of the neediness that men find unattractive. And you’re letting him know that you have standards that HE needs to meet before you decide to choose to be with him. When you present your needs and boundaries like this, the right man will realize he’d be a fool to lose you. The right man will step up to the plate and ASK YOU for the commitment you’re after…and he’ll swell up thinking it was his idea all along and that he’s “won” you. If he doesn’t, you’ll know where you stand with him, and you can keep the door open for the man who is ready and able to create an amazing relationship with you. Don’t bang your head against the wall trying to come up

with ideas on how to make him commit because it only takes a few easy changes and following these few tips to achieve such a feat. All women at one point or another in their lives search for that magical, mysterious thing called commitment. But it’s not that easy to come by, and when you have to grab it from the guy or force it then it might not seem even worthwhile. You might keep asking yourself “How do I make him want to commit?” Or more precisely, you want to find ways to get him to commit to you and no other? Get ready women, we’re breaking it down for you. You can relax a little and stop worrying so much about it. Learn how to transform your relationship into a dedicated little sanctuary you have wished for but never really dreamed it would be a reality.


Make him curious about you If you want to get him to commit, you should definitely present yourself as someone valuable. You dont want to present yourself as just another woman. Make your unique qualities stand out.

You are the grand prize‌ and he should know that Believe that you are special and allow your man time to make himself aware of that. That means, you should have your dignity and not run or jump at his every beckon call. Through little actions such as, not answering a text in a matter of nanoseconds, will tell him that you are a busy woman who isn’t only

focused on him. Plan time for yourself, and tell him politely that you will have to see him another time. He will start realizing that you have your own thoughts and opinions, as well as your own life, and that will drive him to you even more. Men won't be so attentive if they think that your life revolves around them. Make him get curious and wonder what is


happening with you. Dont always spell it out for him. Show him you are a woman with confidence Confidence is sexy … say what you want Getting a guy to commit isn’t that hard at all. You just need to know what you want and be bold enough to go after it. Some studies say that the word ’want’ is one of the most powerful words on the planet. And if you have been wondering what makes a man commit, then wonder no more.; just find little ways to make him 'want' you. Turn this demanding word into something sexy and use it to your advantage. Tell him what you want and when you want it. But don’t make it sound like you are a spoiled brat or like you are being bossy. Just make sure you give out the vibe of a confident woman whose views and wishes can’t be shaken just because you’re in

love. Men like to rule but they love a woman who knows when to take control; he will love that, for sure. Connect the dots in your social circle Family and friends are the key… get them to like you and success Get a guy to commit by being loved by everyone around him. Get on the good side of his parents and friends. This will give him a well needed nudge to make him realize that you are a keeper. Moreover, if they like you, they’ll always be positive around you and spread that positivity onto him as well. They too will give him that nudge. He will love you even more if he sees that the people he loves, are impressed by you. This is one of the greatest goals you need to achieve if you are trying to get him to commit to a relationship. A relationship is only fair and successful if


both of your lives are intertwined and fit in like each piece of the puzzle. That’s why you need to take some time to get to know his family and friends, as this will lead you to get to know more about him, and we all know how relatives and friends love to reveal little tid bits from his bachelor life. And we love to hear those, don’t we? Encourage him twice for every time you nag Do not nag him… the party isn’t over yet Getting him to commit to your relationship will be much more difficult if you keep nagging him about the same old things, over and over again. This is one of the major things you want to avoid if you are asking yourself the question how to get him to commit to you. There is nothing more annoying for a man than a whiny, spoiled woman who

doesn’t stop nagging him about every single thing. If you are doing it all the time, stop it. The only thing you will achieve ios driving him up the wall or away from you. Making him run away from you will make your job twice as hard. Instead, embrace the new tactic. Let him loose a bit, and that doesn’t have to mean he can cheat or do what he wants. No. Just find another way to word out what you are bothered with, and sometimes being silent is golden as he will be wondering what is on your mind. If you still don’t know how to get him to commit, we got one more trick up our sleeve. Be the ball… Laugh and smile… appreciate him Many articles on how to get a man to commit tell you to make him laugh, and do fun stuff with him. If you think your man is funny, laugh. If


he has achievements, great or small, congratulate him. The phrase that says encouragement sweetens labor can be edequately applied to relationships. Show him that you appreciate his sense of humor, and he will not only feel as the center of attention, but the center of your world; ensure that he always know that you appreciate him. That is one of the ways how to make a man commit and create an unbreakable bond with you. You will become his number one girl, and you showing appreciation and genuine interest in him is what makes him want to commit. Dive into his psyche Try a little reverse psychology‌ wants to get him to commit? Stop trying Men are rules by their egos. It is somethng that they cannot seem to help as it is just a part of their makeup. If he thinks that you really want

him to be committed, he might do the opposite. Why? Men do not like to be led to think that they have been coerced or led somewhere that they had no intention of going. To get him to commit dont even think about forcing him to. If you have been trying hard to get him to see only you, the best thing is to pause your campaign and just enjoy where you are in the relationship. You have already expressed the desire to commit and if he wants to, no amount of force will get him there. Jut relax and allow him to see the real you and you wont need to bend his arm to be committed to you. The more you make it seem unimportant the more he will want you to want commitment from him. Put the offer on the table with a sammich Why should he commit? ‌ Give him a reason


Without literally telling him verbally, give your man a few good reasons why he shhould commit. Ensure that you are the type of woman that he wants before you think about a committment. Evaluate the relationship and see if you are both happy and willing to take it a few steps further. Be what he wants without forcing yourself to; be his happy place, his pillar of support. Contrary to what many people think, being able to wash, cook and clean are not the basic foundations of what makes a man happy and lean towards commitment. If you are seen as a great companion who he has to lean on at the end of his day, forcing him to commit will never be an option. Prioritize yourself Careful what you wish for ‌ is this what you really want

So often women get caught up with forcing the men in their lives to do what they want they fail to find suitable time to establish of that is what they too really want deep down. Time is spent scheming, evaluating and charting plans of action that they dream will end in a lifelong commitment that they faail to think ahead if they will be truly happy. Having him commit is one asoect of it but what about you? Do you really want the commitment? Is he what you want or are you motivated to have him commit simply because he wasn't a willing candidate. You see like men, women are just as competitive, we sometimes want simply because we cannot have. Look at the relationship and outline why you want him to commit and see if your reasons are justified. Know thy-type


What type is he ‌ don't try to work miracles Too often women try to change men into something that they really are not. Before you embark on your commitment campaign ask yourself if he is the committment type. This will make your job much easier and save you a lot of embarassment and trouble down the line. If the guy wants to settle down with you, he will and sometimes the only thing that changes his mind is you telling him that he needs to. If he is not the type that wants to settle down do not put yourself on a high pedestal like so many women and get yourself believing that he played aaround with adozen women before you but you are the special one that he needs. Again twisting his arm is not necessary if you nand he are on the same page. If he really wants to settle down, he will withoung the convincing. Just

dont allow him to settle when he seems out of options. Don't fake it Be honest ‌ tricks are for card games Fake it til you make it should never apply to a relaitonship. Building a relationship especially a commited relationship on a lie is never a good start. If the foundation is shaky, so will the entire relationshiop be. Do not try to use crafty tricks that will make him think twice and stay with you. This means using the age old pregnancy trick wont do. Just be yoursekf and see where that takes you. Maybe you might even be surprised by the outcome more than you had imagined. In the end, you have the perfect prince charming Since the answer to the eternal puzzle of how to make a guy commit has been answered, what are you


waiting for? Try our tips out on your date, your boyfriend or the eternal frat boy you just haven’t seemed to be able to convince to commit for a long time. Make sur ethat you are both on the same level and that you have not mistakenly misread any signs along the way. We’re almost sure he won’t resist your charm and he’ll be a changed man in no time. That works for us ladies, doesn’t it?

WHAT MEN FIND IRRESISTIBLE IN A WOMAN Avoid Over-Seriousness, Worrying & Reacting Emotionally If He’s Distant What I’ve found after coaching thousands of women over the last 10 years

is that when men do stupid things in a relationship like act distant, unaffectionate or uninterested, most women tend to become overlyemotional, hurt, angry and worry if things are “okay”. Many women will then act aloof, tense or upset in reaction to this. But this will not make him more attracted to you or understand. Unfortunately It will actually make him less attracted. Now, men do sometimes really brainless things that can seem hurtful, and you have every right to feel what you’re feeling. The problem is letting your emotions control your actions can negatively impact hisattraction for you. When a man does hurtful things like act unaffectionate, distant or not calk you back, most women tend to react by


becoming worried, tense and lose that light-hearted spark they originally brought to the table, which drew him in in the first place.

forehead that says “I’m the one!”

Most women either try to “convince” him to open up, try to change his behaviors or simply become upset, passive aggressive and “give him a taste of his own medicine”.

If you’re becoming overlyserious, worried or upset over these things and you’re reacting emotionally because of it, unfortunately your man is very likely to lose attraction and pull away and become a relationship goddess you need to take action and learn how to reverse this before things gets worse.

The reason why these things never work is because most men don’t initially realize when they have hurt you, they don’t understand female emotions and pull away slowly after it happens a few times. Men absolutely crave a woman who stays lighthearted and relaxed ESPECIALLY when things get rough. Humor and light-heartdeness is like a BILLBOARD mounted to a woman’s

Men feel this on a subconscious gut level.

If you lead with a sense of humor when things are not going well, it’s amazing for your man and can instantly turn everything around. It sounds simple, yet most women too often get caught up in their emotions.


: Lead With Your “Youthfulness” Most women believe that attraction has to do mostly with their body… weight, breast size, bone structure etc. And while this does plays a part, there is more truth to be understood about attraction. A man desires youthfulness in a woman he would consider spending his time with. But what does “youthfulness” mean? Youthfulness is a state of being innocent and childlike, and this is something that stimulate men on a subconscious level to crave.

Youth is an attitude. Most women are very burned out inside from the obligations of the world, and this has a very strong effect on how men will perceive you. It may be difficult for you to “get” this because women in our society are virtually “brainwashed” to believe if their bodies are not young or pretty, they don’t stand a chance at captivating a man. NOT TRUE… and I have many, many cases to back this up. I’ve documented that attraction has MOSTLY to do with your internal “energy”.


Men sense when a woman is fresh and has kept herself separate from the negativity of other’s opinions and when a woman has allowed herself to be burned out, burdened with obligations and has lost touch with the little girl within. A child playing on the playground hasn’t been burdened by the world’s “adulthood” and “responsibilities” yet. All she cares about is PLAYING… in the sand, swinging on the swings and having fun. She is fresh, she doesn’t hold onto the past

and isn’t worried about the future. It’s one thing be responsible, and another thing to allow it to define who you are. I’m always amazed when I see 18-year-old girls who seem like they’re 48, and then when I see 48-year-old women who feel 18. It’s just a matter of learning what type of energy men are emotionally attracted to in a woman. Attract With Body Language Behavioral psychologists say that body language makes up


for 55% of all communication in relationships… vocal tonality comes in second with 38%. And the actual words we use to talk? A whopping 7%.

Hips loose and pushed a bit forward, arch in the lower back allowing weight to release off your upper-back, shoulders and upper back relaxed back, chest present, chin up, standing straight up.

Pay close attention… words are only 7% of ALL communication.

A smile tells a man on a gut level that you’re receptive and no smile says you’re “untouchable”.

That means that 93% of ALL communication and signals that we give and receive are based on body language and vocal tonality.

You may have mixed feelings towards her (and I’m not her biggest fan either), but Paris Hilton has great body language.

Most women ask me “what do I say to him to make him want me?” But if you focus on only that 7% you’re missing 93% of the puzzle!

When you learn how to have powerful body language, it’s as close to “magic” as it gets to seeing men respond INSTANTLY with attraction.

I don’t have time right now to get too deep into this, but here’s the “magic formula” for body language that subconsciously tell all men that you’re irresistible and you know it.

: Avoid Getting OverlyEmotional When men do things like become distant, not call or text


back quickly or anything else hurtful, most women allow

their negative emotions to build up in a relationship and inadvertently take them out on the guy. While you and I know that you don’t mean to do this, it does have a strong effect on how men feel towards you, and this is where you’ll see men pull away, become angry or leave.

Most women don’t understand that by becoming emotional like this, it freaks men out and causes them to close down out of fear. But expressing positive emotions in the right way has the power to get a man literally addicted to you. It just takes a readjustment of the way you’ve always approached men and relationships… : Avoid Impatience


Let’s face it, most women today have a borderline A.D.D. situation going on… But seriously, most men are extremely grateful when they find a patient woman. A.D.D. is cute to some guys at first (I find it hilarious and love to make light-hearted fun of women like this) but impatience can slowly turn into unnecessary frustration and emotional aggression when things don’t happen fast enough. What I’m talking about is relaxing more and being more open to going with the flow of your relationship with him. This is the same attitude that rockstars have, and rockstars, whether male or female, are some of the most desired people on the planet. Why is patience so valuable to being attractive to men? Because it is very RARE for a man to find and sub-

communicates confidence and desirability. Here’s a secret about men most women will never understand. Men are purpose and goaloriented… Men value the vision they want to create in life above all else. It could be that he wants to start a family, travel the world, build a business… it could be anything. The point is when a man meets a woman, he secretly hopes that she will relax with his path. If she does he will literally feel that she completes him. : Self-Care And Beauty While I talk a lot about inner beauty, it is expecting too much to not keep yourself looking good and think that men will chase after you. Beauty, healthy hair, goodlooking skin, well-done


makeup, healthy weight; these are the more superficial things men adore. Most men are not looking for you to be a super model, they just want to know that you care about your presentation. Now where most women get tripped up is believing that external beauty is everything… it is not. Let me ask you something. Have you ever thought… what is beauty? Beauty is the OUTWARD expressions of femininity, which men are attracted to like NOTHING else. This is why beauty is so powerful to men.

This is not good because you become an insecure ROLLERCOASTER seeking approval from men, and when you’re chasing after his

validation, you can’t be irresistible. Here’s what I believe is needed ===> Balance, balance, balance. Put some weight onto the other leg of INNER beauty. The fact is inner is just as important as outer. And there is a way to becoming internally beautiful to men in a way that makes men RESPOND like crazy. Listen, I have even coached supermodels who have trouble with men. But it is still a piece none the less. : Emotional Intelligence You are intelligent, I already know this. I know this simply because you’re here right now looking to better your love life, which is an intelligent thing to do… and it’s rare.


But what exactly do I mean by “intelligence”? Well, I don’t necessarily mean book intellect, “street smarts” or being a philosopher.

I really mean a woman who is PRESENT and “here now”. She is sharp, responsive, alive, witty and keeps a man on his toes.

If you drift into all of the bad stuff you’ve done in the past and all of the regrets and constantly worry about the future, there’s a good chance you’ll have trouble being attractive to men.

thinking about a millions thoughts is catnip to the male mind.

A woman who is present, who a man can look into her eyes and see that she is with him right here and now… not zoning off into space or

A woman who is “with” a man is extremely attractive, desirable and irresistible to a man.

She responds to the moment… and this is an ability that every woman has.


Unfortunately, most men will never know this kind of women, so when she does come, well let’s just say, have you ever heard of those stories of guys proposing in the first 3 months? There is a way to cultivate this aspect of yourself, and I believe you DO have this inside you… you just have to learn how to release it. : Not “Needing” But Wanting Many, many women fall into the trap of confusing liking, caring for and loving someone for being attached and needing that someone. Loving someone and being attached to someone are not the same thing. Let me help you to understand the difference. Loving someone is when you are thinking about the other

person’s needs and happiness while when you become attached to someone you think about how YOUR needs are not being fulfilled by this person. Love is fearless and feelings joyous and attachment is fearful and feels bad. Most guys can sense neediness, which usually causes them to run the other direction. But they can also sense a girl who WANTS rather than needs. What is the real difference between want and need? Need is obliging the other person, that you can’t live without him, while want is being secure in yourself but liking that he be an addition to you, that you could live without him if need be. I only know this by talking to thousands of guys about this.


A woman who has the selfconfidence enough to want, to desire, and not be attached gets the love from any man she wants. Most women are in fact needy, and it’s not their fault (it has to do with many factors), but it is completely possible to learn to have confidence and security in yourself. If you deal with neediness on a day-to-day basis and want to learn how to become selfconfident and free of fear, anxiety, neediness, self-doubt or jealousy, then check out my emotional balancing tips. : Nurturance Most men enjoy independence in a woman, but men also secretly like to feel taken care of as well. To most women this comes naturally. The problem is when a man does something

hurtful to a woman, she has a tendency to begin to withhold this quality out of either fear or anger. Osho, an enlightened Indian mystic, once said “a man’s life is a journey to find the happiness he once felt inside the womb of his mother.” Very deep stuff. Could you imagine the repercussions if you were able to make him feel this way? You wouldn’t be able to get rid of him!

And there are ways to make him feel this way that I don’t have time to get into right now (that’s what my free email newsletter and programs are for). The great thing is nurturance is one of your most basic female instincts… Most guys do want that little tiny bit of mommy in a girlfriend.


But because of society, “responsibilities” and the resentment that most women feel unconsciously towards men, women end up losing touch with this part of themselves. If you’re not nurturing to a man, there’s a good chance that he will feel a level of distrust in your ability to fulfill him emotionally. : Sexual Adventurousness Sexual repression makes people very, very… VERY angry and afraid. Scientists, presidents, poets, hot guys and musicians all agree. By sexually adventurous I do NOT mean having sex with every person in sight, or having fivesomes in a bathroom stall on Hollywood Blvd. I simply mean being RELAXED about sex instead

of tense, nervous or rejecting of it… and never using it or withholding it as a tool to make a man give you love… because it simply does nothing to make him feel irresistibly in love and attracted to you… in fact it will do the opposite. If you are alive sexually, you will cause a man to feel a deep sense that you are different from other girls. He never knows what’s going to happen next… and what happens in the bedrooms carries in a relationship. If you’re not adventurous sexually, unpredictable and spontaneous then the relationship will turn cold. Sex is the barometer of a relationship, and what you bring to it will decide how irresistible your man will find you.


It’s easier than you might think to cultivate this way of being, you just have to know how. : Love Love… there is not a more significant word in the English language. What do I mean about “love” in the context of making men irresistibly attracted and in love with you? There are two types of people. One who lives life in fear, and the other who lives life in love. Most people tend to live in fear. i.e. fear of being left, not being loved, pain, being cheated on, being left, and the list goes on. Believe it or not, living in constant fear and worry can kill a man’s attraction for you and cause him to pull away.

Men universally are drawn to women who live a life of love, positivity, joy, creativity and keeps worry and fear to a minimum. The fact is this type of woman is rare. Unfortunately most women live in constant fear, worry, self-judgment, guilt and anxiety. Further, when you base your actions with men off of fearbased emotions, you’re bound to act in a way that predisposes you to lose attraction and love from men. Living positively has to be learned… and it can be learned. I’m going to share with you a secret that has taken me years to understand. A woman filled with love in her heart, who sees dance, celebration and music everywhere she goes is the


most desirable quality a woman can posses to a man. Love is not weak…. it is PURE POWER. : Integrity A woman who has real values and sticks up for herself is like a beacon of light to a man.

Most women don’t understand why they feel so much insecurity and constant worry in life. It’s because they never develop a sense of integrity and the feeling of self-respect and love that comes with it. Most men don’t value women who don’t value themselves.

Most women say one thing and do another. When you do this with a man, you will lose his trust and respect… two very critical ingredients to being irresistible to a man.

Integrity creates sanity. It’s one of the few things you come into the world with, and its one of the easiest things to take for granted and sell to try to be accepted by others.

For instance many women will tell a friend they love them, and then talk negatively about them behind their back to gain approval from other friends. I have to sit down with them and get them thinking of what they stand for and believe in… and drop the addiction to external approval.

It’s a delicate balance and you must understand how to balance it correctly.

HOW TO BALANCE YOUR LOVE LIFE AND YOUR CAREER 1. Prioritize


It's a fact: Sometimes life forces us to put more weight on one thing than another. Often, this priority shift means forgoing one goal in exchange for another; for example, weakening your professional aspirations in return for relationship growth. But you shouldn't have to sacrifice one aspect of your life for another. After all, what's the fun of a promotion if you don't have someone to share it with? The good news is prioritizing doesn't mean sacrifice. It means adjustment. And by building a strong foundation for both your romantic and work life, you can prevent disruption when priorities shift. Step one: Make sure that both your significant other and your coworkers know that they're a significant part of your life. When both understand that they are mutually valuable, staying

late at the office doesn't mean that you'd rather be at work, nor does taking a personal day mean you don't care about your job. Communicate that both are of high priority and sometimes, as need be, one might take precedence. 2. Compartmentalize Having a successful career and a loving relationship is the best of both worlds. The best way to keep those two separate worlds happy? Just that—keep them separate! That means when you're at work, commit fully to your job, the task at hand, and the needs of your coworkers or managers. Don't let your love life be a distraction. There's plenty of time to daydream outside the office. Instead, spend your workday being productive and you'll have more time quality time to spend with your beloved later. Likewise, when spending quality time with


your significant other, don't let work distract your attention. Put away your BlackBerry, stop talking about your next big proposal, and halt all conversations about your gossipy coworker. Instead, discuss topics you as a couple both enjoy. On the plus side, you'll find that occasionally disconnecting (fully) from work will make you more productive when you return to the office. 3. Manage Your Time The number one factor in job loss and relationship breakdown is lack of time and dedication. Successful professionals who are in relationships know this can be avoided with a little forethought and planning. If your career demands that you work long hours at the end of the month, plan a weekend get-away with your guy the week before so you can share time before your required separation. Equally, after a

vacation or break from work, come back to the office energized and eager to get back to your job. Show your boss that even though you value your relationship and personal life, you are similarly devoted to your professional success. 4. Stay Connected Social networking exists for a reason—to reach out and touch people. Spending time at the office is unavoidable, but ruining your relationship because you have a job is 100 percent avoidable. The fix? Take five minutes each day to send a quick private message to your significant other, write on his Facebook wall—heck, even send a quick email to let him know you're thinking of him. But please, this shouldn't be a novel, nor should you share in a monumentally long IM chat every hour. Remember, you're at work... you should be working! Just a quick two-


liner about how special he is will do just fine.

time with him, it may just be time to quit him.

5. Know When to Quit

Just remember, successminded people know that balance is the spice of life. And no matter how well you manage your time, sometimes your life will be more focused on one area than another. Just be sure to assess your goals from time to time, evaluate where you are and where you want to be, and plan accordingly.

We'll be the first to admit, quitting gets a bad wrap. But knowing when something or someone isn't good for you and taking yourself out of that situation makes for one great character trait. The lesson: Be mindful of just how much time you're investing in your relationship or your career. If your late work hours are preventing you from taking part in the things you love (a.k.a. your relationship) it may be time to reevaluate your job and career aspirations. Meeting with your boss to establish a more efficient work schedule might be in order. Similarly, if your significant other is not considerate of your career or life goals and continually gives you grief about not spending enough

You can have it all! You just have to work it, girl! No one ever said managing a career was easy. Throw a relationship into the mix and you've got career suicide, right? Wrong. While we'd all love to forgo a day of work in exchange for a fun-filled day with our significant other, having a strong relationship doesn't mean your occupational goals have to suffer. It's quite the opposite!

Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner CBE (born 2 October 1951), better known by his stage name Sting Sting, is an English musician, singer singersongwriter, multiinstrumentalist, activist, actor, and philanthropist. He was the he principal songwriter, lead singer, and bassist for the new wave rock band Police from 1977 to 1983, before launching a solo career.

He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2002 and the Rock and Roll Hall of


Fame as a member of The Police in 2003. In 2000, he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for recording. In 2003, Sting received a CBE from Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace for services to music, and was made a Kennedy Center Honoree at the White House in 2014. With The Police, Sting became one of the world's best-selling music artists. Solo and with The Police, he sold 100 million records. In 2006, Paste ranked him 62nd of the 100 best living songwriters. He was 63rd of VH1's 100 greatest artists of rock, and 80th of Q magazine's 100 greatest musical stars of 20th century. He has collaborated with other musicians, including "Rise & Fall" with Craig

David, "All for Love", with Bryan Adams and Rod Stewart, and introduced the North African musical Raï to Western audiences by his international hit "Desert Rose" with Cheb Mami. In 2014: In a frank interview in today’s Mail on Sunday Event magazine, the former Police frontman said he expected his three sons and three daughters to work, and added that there would not be much left to inherit anyway. Sting, 62, who still has more than 100 people on his payroll, said: ‘I told them there won’t be much money left because we are spending it! We have a lot of commitments. What comes in, we spend, and there isn’t much left.’ He added: ‘I certainly don’t want to leave them trust funds that are albatrosses round their necks.


‘They have to work. All my kids know that and they rarely ask me for anything, which I really respect and appreciate. ‘Obviously, if they were in trouble I would help them, but I’ve never really had to do that. They have the work ethic that makes them want to succeed on their own merit.’ Sting is not the only celebrity who expects their children to stand on their own feet. Celebrity chef Nigella Lawson said a few years ago: ‘I am determined that my children should have no financial security. It ruins people not having to earn money.’

MaddAddam is a novel by Canadian writer M argaret Atwood, published on 29 August 2013. Maddaddam concludes the dystopian trilogy which began with Oryx and Crake(2003) and continued with The Year of the Flood (2009). While the plot from these previous novels

run along a parallel timeline, Maddaddam is the continuation of both books. Maddaddam is written from the perspective of Zeb and Toby, who were both introduced in The Year of the Flood. The novel continues the story of the some of the same


characters in the wake of the same biological catastrophe depicted in Atwood's earlier novels in the trilogy. The narrative starts with Ren and Toby (protagonists in The Year of the Flood) rescuing another survivor (Amanda Payne) from two criminals, who had been previously emotionally hardened by a colosseum-style game called Painball. Ren and Toby meet up with Jimmy, the main protagonist from Oryx and Crake. These characters reunite with other survivors, develop a camp and start to rebuild civilization with the Crakers, all while the vengeful criminals (Painballers) stalk them. Similarly to the previous two books, the narrative switches periodically into the past. After Zeb and Toby become lovers, he tells her about his previous career. Zeb and Adam One (from The Year of the Flood) grew up as half-

brothers. Their father, a preacher ("The Rev"), advocated a corporatefriendly message that espoused petroleum and shunned environmentalism. Disgusted by his father’s ethics and hypocrisy, Zeb hacks into his father's accounts and empties them. Knowing their father's political influence, Zeb and Adam leave home, take on different identities and separate in order to avoid detection. Ultimately Zeb and Adam re-unite and work together in building God's Gardeners, the central organization in The Year of the Flood. Andrew Sean Greer in The New York Times said, "Atwood has brought the previous two books together in a fitting and joyous conclusion that’s an epic not only of an imagined future but of our own past".


For The Independent, James Kidd said, "Atwood's body of work will last precisely

because she has told us about ourselves. It is not always a pretty picture, but it is true for all that."

MARGARET ATWOOD is the author of more than forty books - novels, short stories, poetry, literary criticism, social history, and books for children. Atwood's work is acclaimed internationally and has been published around the world. Her novels include The Handmaid's Tale and Cat's Eye -- both shortlisted for the Booker Prize; The Robber Bride, winner of the Trillium Book Award and a finalist for the Governor General's Award; Alias Grace, winner

of the prestigious Giller Prize in Canada and the Premio Mondello in Italy, and a finalist for the Governor General's Award, the Booker Prize, the Orange Prize, and the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award; The Blind Assassin, winner of the Booker Prize and a finalist for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award; and Oryx and Crake, a finalist for The Giller Prize, the Governor General's Award, the Orange Prize, and the Man Booker Prize. Her


most recent books of fiction are Moral Disorder, Oryx and Crake, and The Year of

the Flood. Margaret Atwood lives in Toronto with novelist Graeme Gibson.

Horrible Bosses 2 received mixed reviews from critics, with many criticizing its offensive jokes about rape, but praising the cast, with Pine's performance in particular. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a 35% rating, based on 135 reviews, with an average rating of 4.7/10. The site's consensus reads, "Horrible Bosses 2 may trigger a few belly laughs among big fans of the original, but all in all, it's a waste of a strong cast that fails to justify its own existence." On Metacritic, the film has a score of 40 out of 100, based on 36 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". Justin Lowe of The Hollywood Reporter said, "The jokes start growing stale well before the film's midpoint."

Justin Chang of Variety called the film an "inane and incredibly tasteless sequel." Dan Callahan of TheWrap told that "the result is puerile, ugly and painfully unfunny." Moira MacDonald of The Seattle Times gave the film one and a half stars out of four, saying "Lots of gags fly by, many of them in questionable taste (some downright offensive) and most of them unfunny." Claudia Puig of USA Today gave the film one out of four stars, saying "This illconceived sequel to 2011's entertaining Horrible Bosses is base, moronic, insulting and vulgar. It's also cringingly unfunny." Tom Russo of The Boston Globe gave the film two and a half out of four stars and said, "A new misadventure whose negligibly refined formula somehow ends up


being more consistently entertaining." Stephen Holden of The New York Times said that the film is "one of the sloppiest and most unnecessary Hollywood sequels ever made, isn't dirtier or more offensive than its 2011 forerunner. But it is infinitely dumber and not half as funny." Kyle Smith of the New York Post gave one out of four stars, saying "Duct tape, thick rope and the threat of being shot all figure prominently in Horrible Bosses 2. All would have been required to keep me in my seat if it weren't my job to report back on this factory-issued sequel." Betsy Sharkey of Los Angeles Times said, "Make no mistake, despite some well-

earned laughs, Horrible Bosses 2 is not what qualifies as a good movie or even a particularly good R-rated comedy." Joe Williams of St. Louis Post-Dispatch gave the film two out of four stars and said, "Horrible Bosses 2 is further proof that likable actors have to take an occasional sick day." James Berardinelli gave the film one and a half stars out of four and wrote for ReelViews, "Horrible Bosses 2 (emphasis on "horrible") is an apt title for this repugnant, unnecessary sequel."


How to Keep Your Tooth Enamel Strong The surfacee of your teeth is called enamel. It helps protect them from decay. Some wear and tear is

normal, but there's plenty you can do to keep that barrier strong. Take these simple steps for a healthy mouth and a winning smile.

1. Limit Sugary Foods and Drinks

but they're also acidic and will wear down enamel over time.

Bacteria in your mouth feed on sugar from foods and drinks. Then they make acids, which soften and wear away your enamel. Chewy candies that stick on your teeth are can also cause damage. Soft drinks may have extra acids. Soft drinks with artificial sweeteners teners are a smarter choice than ones with sugar,

The best choice when you're thirsty? A glass of plain water. Many flavored waters are acidic. 2. Eat Foods That Protect Enamel Calcium in food counters co acids in your mouth that cause decay. It also helps


keep your bones and teeth strong. Milk, cheese, and other dairy products help protect and strengthen enamel, says Pamela L. Quinones, past president of the American Dental Hygienists' Association. Choose low-fat or fat-free items to help keep calories down. If you don't eat dairy, look for foods with calcium added. 3. Avoid Over-Brushing You can wear down your enamel if you brush too fast and hard. Hold a brush with a soft bristle at about a 45degree angle to your gums. Then move it back and forth in short, gentle strokes, about the distance of one tooth.

Wait for up to an hour after eating sweets or citrus fruits before you brush your teeth. Acidic foods can soften enamel and may make it easier for you to damage it. 4. Use Fluoride The American Dental Association (ADA) calls fluoride "nature's cavity fighter" because it strengthens your enamel and helps repair the early stages of tooth decay. Fluoride also makes your teeth more resistant to acids that come from foods and from bacteria in your mouth. The ADA recommends fluoride toothpaste as soon as the first tooth appears and throughout your life. Rinsing with a mouthwash that has fluoride can also help prevent cavities and keep your enamel strong.


When that happens, the water can damage teeth that get wet.

5. Treat Heartburn and Eating Disorders If you have severe heartburn, stomach acids may escape and eventually reach your mouth, where they can erode enamel. The eating disorder bulimia, in which people vomit food after they eat, is another threat to your enamel. If you have either condition, talk to your doctor about treatment. 6. Beware of Chlorinated Pools When swimming pools aren't chlorinated properly, the water may become too acidic.

Check with the recreation center or gym where you swim to make sure the pool's chlorine levels are checked regularly. While swimming, keep your mouth closed so your teeth don’t get wet. 7. Watch Out for Dry Mouth Saliva helps wash away food and bacteria that can lead to cavities. It also fights the effects of acidic foods. Drink water often to keep your mouth clean and moist. If you exercise hard, be sure to rehydrate during and after your workout. Chewing sugarless gum or sucking on sugarless hard candy can also help keep saliva flowing in your mouth. Some medical conditions and medications can cause dry mouth. Talk to your doctor about treatments.


8. Avoid Grinding Your Teeth Some people grind their upper and lower teeth together, especially at night. Over time it can wear down the enamel. Talk to your dentist if you've got the grinding habit. He may suggest a custom-fitted mouth guard that can protect your teeth.

cleaning. He can spot signs of trouble, such as cavities or tooth grinding, before they do a lot of damage. Your dentist will also make sure that you're getting the right amount of fluoride to harden and protect enamel. If your water supply isn't fluoridated, ask him if you need fluoride supplements, mouthwashes, or coatings for your teeth.

9. Get Regular Checkups To keep your teeth strong, see your dentist every 6 months for a checkup and 56 CAUSES OF EYE DISORDERS

Nearsightedness (myopia) Nearsightedness, or myopia, is a very common condition in which nearby objects are visible but faraway objects are out of focus and difficult to see.


Farsightedness Farsightedness, or hyperopia, is a common vision impairment in which you are able to see things that are far away, but have trouble seeing things that are up close.

Astigmatism Astigmatism is a common vision problem that causes distorted, fuzzy, or blurry vision as a result of an irregular curve in the eye's lens or cornea.

Presbyopia Presbyopia causes people's eyes to be unable to focus as quickly on close-up objects. It naturally affects everyone's eyes as they age.


Conjunctivitis (pink eye) Conjunctivitis, or "pink eye," is an infection or swelling in the eye area that causes inflammation of the conjunctiva, giving the eye a red or pink color.

Allergic conjunctivitis Allergic conjunctivitis is when exposure to allergens (such as mold spores or pollen) cause your eyes to become watery, red, and itchy.

Foreign object in the eye A foreign object in the eye is anything that enters the eye from outside the body and does not belong there. It causes immediate symptoms, but may or may not be serious, depending on the object.

Cataract Cataracts are dense, cloudy areas that slowly form in the lens of the eye. They are common in older people, but can also be


present at birth or caused by medications, disease, trauma, or radiation.

Eye floaters Specks and strings may appear in your field of vision. These are called eye floaters, and are most commonly caused by agerelated changes to the eye.

Corneal abrasion A minor scratch to the eye's cornea, which the thin layer that covers the iris and pupil, is called a corneal abrasion. It can be caused by dust, contact lenses, or other foreign objects, and can sometimes develop into a serious eye condition.

Eyelid inflammation (blepharitis) Blepharitis is inflammation of the eyelash follicles. Its cause is unclear, but allergies, mites, dandruff, and certain medications may increase the likelihood of this form of inflammation.


Eye redness Eye redness occurs when the vessels of the eye become irritated or swollen. It can occur due to dry air, dust, allergies, or as a result of a more serious condition.

Dry eyes When the eyes do not produce enough tears, this results in dry eyes. It can be caused by environmental factors, dry eye syndrome, medications, and other causes as well.

Visual disturbances When a condition or disorder temporarily or permanently interferes with the normal sense of sight, this is called a visual disturbance.

External eyelid stye (hordeolum externum)


A red, painful bump or inflamed area on the eyelid is called a stye or hordeolum. It's typically caused by bacterial infection of the sebaceous glands at the base of the eyelashes.

Watery eyes If the eyes produce too many tears, the tear ducts become overwhelmed and the eyes become watery. Watery eyes can be caused by strong emotions or laughter, weather, or a range of different conditions.

Eye pain Eye pain, or ophthalmalgia, is a common form of discomfort that can occur inside the eye (orbital pain) or on the surface of the eye (ocular pain). It is rarely a result of a serious condition, and usually resolves on its own without treatment.

Eyelid turned in (entropion) Entropion is when your eyelid rotates inward, causing irritation, abrasion, and redness. It is common in older people, but it can


also be congenital or caused by chemical burns, tracoma, or herpes zoster ophthalmicus.

Eye burning accompanied by itching and discharge Eye burning accompanied by discharge and/or itching is usually a sign of infection, and should be looked at by a doctor immediately. It can also be a sign of a foreign body in the eye or an injury to the eye.

Eyelid twitch An eyelid twitch, or blepharospasm, is when the eyelid muscles spasm involuntarily and repeatedly. These are usually minor, but can become chronic in some cases, or can accompany serious brain and nerve disorders.

Glaucoma Glaucoma refers to a number of diseases that damage the optic nerve and can lead to vision loss. It is usually caused by abnormally high pressure inside the eye.


Dry eye syndrome Dry eye syndrome is a condition in which the eyes are unable to produce a sufficient amount of tears, which can lead to irritation and redness in the eyes. It has a number of potential causes, including medications, allergies, and hormone replacement therapy.

Black eye A black eye is when the capillaries beneath the skin around the eyes have broken, blood enters the surrounding tissue and discolors it, giving the appearance of bruising.

Bleeding under conjunctiva (subconjunctival hemmorhage) If blood has collected under the conjunctiva, the transparent tissue that covers the white of the eye, this is called a subconjunctival hemorrhage. This is not a dangerous condition, and tends to go away by itself within a few weeks.


Retinal detachment When the retina separates from the back of the eye, this is known as retinal detachment. It is a medical emergency that can cause partial or total vision loss.

Lazy eye When the brain does not properly acknowledge the information it receives from one of your eyes, this results in a lazy eye, or "amblyopia." This condition normally occurs only in children and usually affects just one eye, which may "wander" around. It can cause serious vision damage if it goes untreated.

Pterygium Pterygium is a benign, noncancerous growth that develops on the mucous membrane on the white part of the eye. Although they usually don't need treatment, they can be removed if they cause vision problems.


Diabetic retinopathy Diabetic retinopathy causes vision problems as a result of type 1 or 2 diabetes, which can damage the blood vessels of the eye's retina. It may start as minor visual problems but it can eventually cause blindness.

Night blindness Night blindness is a form of vision impairment that causes affected individuals to have difficulty seeing in the dark or in dim lighting. It is usually a result of eye conditions such as nearsightedness or cataracts.

Eye emergencies An eye emergency is when chemicals or a foreign object gets in the eye, or an injury affects the eye area. Emergencies require immediate medical attention to help prevent permanent vision damage.


Visual impairment If glasses or contact lenses cannot correct someone's vision, this is known as a visual impairment. Impairments range from low vision and color blindness to total blindness.

Hypertensive retinopathy Hypertensive retinopathy is a condition in which high blood pressure causes vision problems by limiting the retina's function and increasing pressure on the optic nerve.

Strabismus Strabismus, or "crossed eyes," causes the eyes to not line up in the same direction. It tends to develop in children who are very young, and is often treatable.


Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) Macular degeneration is the most common form of vision loss in people age 50 or older. It occurs when the macula, an important part of the retina, becomes damaged.

Bulging eyes Proptosis and exophthalmos, or bulging eyes, are when the eyes protrude out of their normal position. It can be caused by a number of different conditions, including Graves' disease, glaucoma, and leukemia.

Color blindness Color blindness is an inherited or acquired condition in which the patient has difficulty telling apart certain colors or cannot see any colors at all. It is more common in men than in women.

Blindness Blindness is the inability to see anything, including light. It can be partial or complete, and can be caused by a number of different diseases, or be present at birth.


Uveitis Swelling of the uvea, the middle layer of the eye, is called uveitis. It is often associated with infections or autoimmune diseases, and can cause blurry vision, eye pain, and floaters.

Hazy vision Hazy vision is a problem that makes it difficult to see clearly. It can be caused by a number of different factors.

Scleritis Scleritis is severe inflammation of the sclera, the eye's outer protective layer. It usually causes pain, and can sometimes cause vision loss.

Corneal ulcer


A corneal ulcer is a open sore that forms on the cornea, the clear layer on front of the eye. It is usually caused by infections but can also results from small eye injuries.

Photophobia Photophobia, or light sensitivity, is when bright lights hurt your eyes. It can be associated with a number of conditions, ranging from minor to very serious.

Hyphema A hyphema is a collection of blood in the eye, between the cornea and the iris. It is painful, and requires immediate medical attention.

Ophthalmoplegia Certain neurologic disorders can cause ophthalmoplegia, which is weakness or paralysis of muscles that control the eye's movement.


Ocular migraines An ocular migraine, or migraine with aura, is a migraine that is accompanied by a visual disturbance.

Sarcoidosis Sarcoidosis causes granulomas, which are clumps of immune cells, to form in organs such as the eye. Symptoms of sarcoidosis in the eye include dry, itch eyes, discharge, burning sensation, and vision loss.

Retinal vascular occlusion A retinal vascular occlusion is when a blockage or blood clot forms in the veins or arteries transporting blood to or from the retina. It can get in the way of the eye's ability to filter light properly, and can cause vision loss.

BREAD MAKING WITH HOMEMADE YEAST

Bread formed a large part of our diet in the old days, and it was always available, more so in winter when food was scarcer and bellies needed to be filled. I made all our bread, and made the yeast starters that gave it a lovely rise. Making the starter was easy. My sister used potatoes, but I preferred apples to grow my yeast. I’d cut up a couple of peeled apples and put them in a jar with a tablespoon of sugar and half a jar of warm water. There, that was difficult wasn’t it? Keeping the jar in a warm place, mine went under the range, the apples start to ferment and bubble, you can tell it’s done when it smells a little yeasty! not very scientific but it works.


When its ready it got moved into the scullery (kitchen) where it was cooler. It can be used as it is once its well fermented, as long as you warm the required amount first. Or, you can make a dough starter. Put some of the fermented liquid in a bowl and mix it with some flour and leave when it gets warm and starts to rise put a pinch of salt in to stop the dough going sour. Then I would put it under the range overnight. It would be three times as big by next morning, far too much to use for my three daily loaves so half of it got put back in the scullery, covered with a tea cloth. The starter dough gets mixed with the flour and water to make the bread and the rest lasts for about a week, but it never lasted that long at Knowle Cottage. Once you have made the starter dough you can just keep it going. To keep the starter dough going it needs to be fed. A cup of milk, a cup of water and a cup of flour and back under the range it would go, salt added when it starts to heat up, and then back to the scullery and so on. That way you never run out. You must add salt though on days you don’t use it, just a pinch unless you like sour bread. Sometimes things went wrong and the starter dough would be no use, like when I found the boys had broken it into bits and flicked the lumps up onto the scullery ceiling. I heard the whooping and hollering, they were seeing whose fell down first. One lump never did, it was still there all those years later when I moved out!


The bread made with a homegrown starter has a very distinctive flavour, not of the fruit you made it with but it is different. The moist blocks of yeast that had always been available in town (30 miles away) made it to our village shop (4 miles away) in the late ’40’s and it took away a huge amount of work. Cut a chunk off, warm water and sugar…marvellous, I loved it. Ern complained of course, and the taste was a little different but the time saved, and the flour and milk saved from making my own starter dough amounted to quite a bit over the year, and like I said to Ern, all those cups of flour and milk feeding it adds up to a lot of extra loaves…that changed his mind.
