Stir so their are no cloudy parts or lumps. Then use as a normal shampoo, wet hair first then rinse with baking soda and water, then rinse again thoroughly. You don't need to use normal shampoo or conditioner. Do this about once or at most twice a week.<br /><br />This gets rid of product build up, eliminates dandruff and makes your hair so soft.

So when the pimple is starting to go away, I start rubbing vitamin E oil on it, twice a day. It helps to reduce the mark afterward.<br />-I put full fat mayo in my hair once a week for about half an hour. It's a great moisterizer.<br />-I exfoliate my lips 1-2 times a week with sugar. After they're dry I put vaseline. They're sooo smooth and soft.

Many athletes find yoga beneficial for both mental and physical reasons. Physically, yoga can help increase strength, flexibility, balance, while stretching your muscles. It's great to do post workout/ training to relax the muscles and 'cool down'. Activities like running for example will shorten your muscles, practicing yoga will lengthen them.<br />Mentally, yoga can help you relax but also refocus your thoughts as it helps to quieten the mind.<br /><br />I'd suggest practicing it after each strenuous workout session. Start with a shorter practice of 30 minutes and play with it, seeing if longer or shorter works. Particularly yin yoga is great for very deep stretching. It's perfect after a very tiring or stressful day. If your workout schedule has 'relax' days, you could always do a yoga practice then as well for a normally length practice of 45mins- 1 hour or so.Definitely give it a try and see what works for youAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20396927.post-85002185225433054992011-02-26T11:47:56.697+05:302011-02-26T11:47:56.697+05:30yoga obviously improves your flexibility (which ma...yoga obviously improves your flexibility (which makes you less prone to injury and minor daily muscle damage). It also has been shown to improve circulation (which can prevent health problems later in life). On top of that, yoga is an incredible stress reliever. Stress is a physiological response that can lead to poor health if you have continuous stress over a long period of time. Humans withstand a ridiculous amount of stress. Stress effects your heart rate, your blood pressure, your digestion, and anything else effected by the vagus nerve. Reducing stress can improve digestion, reduce your heart rate and blood pressure, and even improve lung and liver functionSudhirnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20396927.post-40189824995954789962011-02-26T11:46:23.599+05:302011-02-26T11:46:23.599+05:30There are many benefits to doing yoga!

...Here's some of my recipes for homemade masks:<br /><br />1. Mash 1/2 cucumber, 2 strawberries, 1 tsp honey and 1 tbsp yogurt in a food processor. Apply to face and allow to dry. Wipe off with a damp wash cloth.<br /><br />2. 1 beaten egg white combined with 2 tsp lemon juice will make your pores look really tiny!<br /><br />3. Mix 2 tablespoons honey with 2 teaspoons milk. Smooth over face and throat. Leave on for 10 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.<br /><br />4. Grate an apple finely and then add about 4 tablespoons of honey. Mix it well apply it to your face wait 10 minutes and rinse.<br /><br />5. Combine equal parts baking soda and water in your hand and rub gently on your skin for 2 to 3 minutes. Rinse with warm water.<br /><br />6. Mash up a very ripe banana. Add just enough honey to make a soft pulp. Apply over face and hair.<br /><br />7. 1 egg<br />Juice of one lemon<br />4 tbsp cup non-fat dry milk powder<br />1 tbsp witch hazel<br />Put all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and mix well. Alternatively, you can blend them together by using a fork or a wire whisk. Apply the mixture to your face, neck and chest and allow it to dry for around 15 minutes. Use the remaining cream as a cleanser to remove the mask. Then, rinse your face thoroughly with warm water and pat dry.<br /><br />8. Take a chopped tomato, 1 tbsp of instant oatmeal, 1 tbsp lemon juice. Blend all ingredients just until combined. Apply to skin, making sure the mixture is thick enough to stay on blemished areas. Add a bit more oatmeal to thicken the mask. Leave on 10 mins. Wash with warm water.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
