BEAUTY ALL YEAR ROUND

BEAUTY ALL YEAR ROUND

JANUARY
Clean yourself
Start the new year to revive your body - from the inside. Consider a detoxifying cleanse to flush the body of toxins and rebalance the alkalinity / acidity inside you. A simple juice clean, for example, can troubleshoot clearly all your tubes and pipes (liver, kidney and colon), says naturopathic doctor Linda Page, author of detoxification. As always, proceed with the advice of a doctor, dietitian or specialist health disadvantages because many detox regimes include dehydration, fatigue, dizziness, nausea and even damage to the colon.

FEBRUARY
Make a list
Forgive yourself a bit and learn to love your body. This month, try this exercise: the list of all the things that you like in your body. Maybe you have fingernails nice, a great head of hair, shiny teeth, shapely calves and smooth skin. Maybe you like what the company might call "defects" such as a gap in your front teeth, small boobs and big hips (they are not flaws, incidentally!). Find something you like on your body and celebrate it.

MARCH
Search support
According to the Journal of clinical psychology, about 50 percent of Americans make resolutions each year and among the best are weight loss and exercise. But at that time, more than half of these resolutions were broken or forgotten for a long time. Take time this month to reassess your fitness goals and get back on the right track. Find an exercise buddy or a personal trainer for additional assistance. You can do it!

APRIL
Try vegetarian for a day
In honor of Earth Day (April 22), consider going vegetarian one day a week for all three meals. Not only it is good for your health, it's great for the Earth. According to Environmental Defense, if every American skipped one meal of chicken per week and substituted vegetarian foods instead, the carbon dioxide savings would take half a million cars off U.S. roads. Little things go a long way.

MAY
Choose wisely
Get ready for water and choose the right swimsuit for your body. If you have a large chest, choose a suit with fabric is are gathered at the waist, which creates a flattering division between the chest and the hips.
