“Things turn out best for those who make the best of the way things turn out.� ~Jack Buck


Recapture your youth, rejuvenate and renew your skin at the Refine Anti-Ageing & Laser Clinic. BOOK YOUR TREATMENT

It has been 4 years since we've opened Refine Anti-ageing & Laser Clinic. We have always strived to give our clients the best possible service regarding laser, peels and injectables such as Botox or Dermal Fillers. We are currently restructuring, and we are partnering with a Full time Doctor, to give you the best service at all times. We have been working on a casual basis with Dr's Johnson and Minnaar-Smit up until now, and we are greatful to them for their dedication and hard work. Since Refine is expanding so rapidly, we have now decided that a full-time doctor would be the way forward, to ensure best treatment follow up for Refine clients. We intoduce to you Dr. Michelle Emett, that has been a Medical doctor for 16 years and has found her passion in Aesthetic Medicine. Michelle spent many years working in the field of trauma and accident and emergency medicine where she learnt the surgical skills that are now applied in aesthetic medicine. She attained her medical degree from Wits and thereafter completed her ACLS, ATLS, APLS (advanced cardiac life support, trauma life support and paediatric life support) certificates. In 2000 she passed her national surgical primaries exam. She also holds a diploma in Business Administration and Leadership.

Dr. Emett

"The face is the most beautiful and intricate part of our being. It is fascinating to observe that all human beings follow the same pattern of facial ageing. First, fat pads from the cheeks diminish, followed by deep lines developing from nose to jaw; our lips retract into our mouths and finally, we end up losing our natural jaw line to jowls. Artistic Anatomy has been an obsession and a passion since I discovered this speciality of medicine. Being able to subtly soften the harsh lines of the ageing face, and reverse this process, we may then return the natural beauty that once was. Every woman and man is beautiful. Our job is to assist patients to look as young as they feel. With today's advances in the science of anti-ageing, there is no reason why anyone should have to age, in any way, but gracefully." says, Dr. Emett

Our practitioners are all professionals in their field, with vast experience and knowledge in anti ageing skin treatments. At Refine anti ageing Clinic we provide you with the most suitable treatment for your skin type, using only the highest quality products and latest non-invasive medical treatments.

Het Bos The Pienaar family has always been passionate about farming. Their dream realised several years ago when they established a 17 hectare olive grove at Het Bos, their farm on the outskirts of Darling on the Cape West Coast. This region has a maritime Mediterranean climate which is ideally suited for olive growing; they chose to plant the well-known Frantoio Cultivar. The slight spicy and peppery character of this oil suits most palates. The high anti-oxidant count makes it one of the healthiest olive oils. The ‘little’ grove at Het Bos is big enough to make a meaningful quantity, yet small enough for them to hand craft and create a superb product and present it with pride & joy. oliveoil@tasteofdarling.co.za Webpage Het Bos Farm, P O Box 128, Darling, 7345 Cell: 082 509 0425 Office: 022 492 2557 Fax: 086 690 9985 Hidden Valley Hidden Valley, nestled on the side of the Helderberg Mountains, produces its superior extra-virgin olive oil from handpicked olives on the farm.

AyamaOliveOil Producer Comment: Just like a fine wine, varietals, climate and region determine the taste and aroma of olive oil. Ayama, which means “someone to lean on”, is crafted to reflect the soul of South Africa, with its rich heritage, colourful people and magnificent wildlife. This extra virgin olive oil is the result of carefully selecting and blending our italian cultivars. 9 hectares of olive trees were planted in 2007: Mission, Frantoio, Leccino and Coratina. The blend enhances flavour, aroma, colour and consistency, while the precious health substances are kept intact.

Serving suggestions: Splash onto salads, drizzle over grilled vegetables or use for dipping crusty bread. But remember, every food with a touch of olive oil is something special and healthier.

Recipies: Subscribe to our newsletter at www.ayama.co.za and you will receive a new recipe for your table, your health and your body, every week!

Vintage: 2012

Acidity: ≤ 0,3% when bottled

NosyRosy.co.za Lets go Primal! A ‘diet’ only works if it becomes a way of life! Primal Paleo living is sustainable because you actually love what you are eating - it gives real energy, no cravings and all health. It is the latest Healthies, most practical lifestyle for South Africans. It suites us to the bone ...literally. The long and the short of it is that you can eat as much as you like of all the healthy foods. Unhealthy is seen to be Sugar & Starch. We have been greatly misinformed regarding the health aspects of fats and salt etc. It isn’t in the ‘health industry’s ‘ best interest for us to be truly fabulously well - thus - do not trust advertisements and ‘experts’, do your own research! It will change your life! All material below as published by Garry Frasca on Paleo Living South Africa So what is Paleo? We call it Primal eating as we include dairy which most Paleo Plans do not. ? Eating healthy meals by keeping my carbs intake low and increasing the protein intake. ? Eating a balanced meal with vegetables and cutting out all sugar, grains wheat, artificial sweeteners, fizzy drinks etc. ? No food containing words that I cannot pronounce or understand what they are. As you will see if you follow the links to other sites, if it comes in a box or a packet don't eat it. ? We don't weigh anything. ? Don't use smaller plates to confuse the brain that the meal is bigger than it is. ? Bacon for breakfast. ? We have included dairy in our eating plan. I can give up icecream (Not really, see below for how we compensate) but not a good piece of cheese. ? We have always grown our own herbs and now increased our garden to include more vegetables. ? Eating where possible organic and free range, we have our own chickens for eggs. (Do organic everything if you can afford it) To read full story click HERE The important part

Eat all you want

Protein/Meat Beef, pork, bacon, game, chicken, all livers, offal. No problem in eating the fat or skin of the chicken. Biltong as part of the meal or great as a snack. For those who can afford it the best option would be to go for free range meat. Seafood All kinds: Fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel or herring. Prawns, crayfish etc. If eating out make sure it's not crumbed/battered Eggs Boiled, fried, omelettes, scrambled, poached any way you like them. Cook with Olive Oil, Butter, grape seed oil, lard, Duck fat, coconut oil, Avocado oil and cream when you cook. Look out for those rich creamy sauces that you were always afraid to eat just use the correct ingredients*. Vegetables Up to you how much of these you eat/drink: Fruit, Alcohol, Dark chocolate, Water, Coffee/Tea with full-fat milk or cream, Pure Honey from a reliable source

Just Don’t do it!

Avoid: Sugar: Fizzy drinks, cold drinks, sweets, fruit juice, energy drinks, chocolate, cakes, donuts, pastries, ice cream, breakfast cereals. All artificial sweeteners. Starch: Pasta, potatoes, French fries (slap chips on the list of what I miss), potato chips, rice, porridge, bread, muesli etc. “Wholegrain products” are not any better. Dairy: Low fat milk and skim milk as they contain a lot of milk sugar. Avoid flavoured, sugary and low-fat/no fat products. No margarine or man made spreads (Butter is Better and allowed!) No Beer : ( - replace with Red Wine : )

THE LOVE YOURSELF WEEKEND Inside every woman lies the ability to connect with that force within, where passion, creativity, intuition and power live side-by-side with your ageless wisdom. However sometimes it becomes difficult to keep the connection to this wonderful force open and to use its vitalizing power. Life happens, and sometimes we lose the connection and experience ourselves as separate from it. During these time we can find ourselves experiencing too much work, no work, relationships that have gone wrong, loneliness, the loss of a loved one or a combination thereof. You know what we mean, right? Ask yourself: When in my life did I stop singing? When in my life did I stop dancing? Where in my life did I lose enchantment with my own life story?

Ponderings

Essential

Rosy believes there lives an intelligent and questioning cell in every brain, even under the most unlikely of circumstances. Some cells get bombarded with disinformation, mind altering substances (Champagne exempted) and negative minded people to such extreme levels, it almost loses all velocity and flexibility... - at the worst -all life energy. We call that inertia or ‘Stucknes’s. But there comes a time when every remotely sound mind will turn to question otherwise 'accepted' facts. Please read and inform yourselves and be a strong independent mind by questioning the changeable for the better of all. (Recommended reading does not mean the scanning and believing of ill researched and badly written newspaper articles) Rosy's tongue in cheek questioning has inspired many cells out of its stuckness, and as we know, energy at work is a Divine force of Life, even - and especially - when it inspires a Google search for knowledge, a giggle or a helping hand. Favourite Sayings, Quotes & stories There once was a very wise old Indian warrior who told his grandson this story. There are two great bears living in your heart my son A Black one and a White one. Your whole life will be about the fight between these two. Why are they fighting Grandfather ? Because they are of opposing spirits. The Black wolf feeds on Anger and mistrust and self-hatred, violence and self-destruction and an eternal negative inner dialogue. The White wolf feeds on Love and Beauty, Joy, Forgiveness, Gratitude, Will-power, Courage, Trust and an eternal positive inner dialogue. Which one will win Grandfather? The one you feed most.

Objects of Beauty Lawton Roberts Design

Turning shells into pearls… Hermanus is renowned for it’s soughtafter Abelone. The pearly, luminescent lustre of abalone shell has been put to exceptionally good use by entrepreneur Lawton Roberts.

You have never looked this good

Tons of the shells are discarded or crushed for fertiliser annually by the aquaculture farmers in Walker Bay but now Lawton Roberts has found a way to ‘upcycle’ this waste material. ‘Upcycling, recycling and downcycling – he does all three when he uses perlemoen shells that would be disposed of as garbage by the farms,’ says Lawton, a designer and artist who has dreamt of finding some way to use the beauty of the shells and has created the trendy pearly-mirror frame. Lawton’s eye for detail and precision found a perfect outlet in the meticulous cutting and polishing of the shells before he sets to work on his mirror frame and other creations for Lawton Roberts Design. The exquisite handwork and design of the pearlymirrors have caught the eye of fashionable Blues restaurant in Camps Bay and hang in this top Cape hot spot. For info or orders contact Lawton on 079 022 0088 or lawtonrobertsdesign@hermanus.co.za

A large mosaic mirror, can take up to 32 days to manufacture. The frame consists of 2033 little tiles, all handcut! Consider that each tile needs four cuts to be removed from the shell, then a further four cuts are made to get it to the exact size. The outer edge tiles requires a further 1 or 2 cuts! Meaning that some tiles were cut ten times!! This resulted in Lawton making 17009 cuts before completing a large frame.
