Juice cleansing works well for both physically and mentally


I'm on a juice cleans now.
Juice cleansing is a kind of a diet to flush  toxins from the body by drinking nothing but juice .
This time I planed a 3-day  cleanse .Today is the 2nd day.

You might think  people  feel very hungry  during the cleans.
But  I don't  feel hungry at all .Actually I always feel much better during cleansing.
I've been mainly vegetarian for more than 10 years and I am used to this kind of practice ,for example ,  eating raw food , fasting etc...
But when I looked back at the my very first  fasting , I felt very hungry .
But after the fasting ,  I felt much  more energetic and reguvenated .After that, cleansing became a regular routine for me.

I have fasted 3 or 4 times a year for the last 4 years.  The last time was about 6 months ago.
I had to take a break from a healthy diet to experience the delicious food on my recent trips to Tokyo and Paris.

But I noticed that my sinus allergies became worse because of the food I ate ( even though it was fantastic ).

Now I'm in my second day of cleansing and my allergies are getting better.
My 5  senses  always work really well  during and after cleansing.
Another important reason why I  cleanse  is to quite my busy mind.
Body detoxifying is also mind detoxifying .

Sometime my mind is full of thoughts ( and most of them are not so important !) and it's restless .
Based on my personal experience, eating a lot of food too often can make one's mind restless.
less food means more calm the mind.
I think cleansing the body is one of the  best ways to find peace of  mind .
For me , it works better  than yoga and meditation.

Now I find my mind more peaceful and my performance improves at work.
I feel light both physically and mentally  and I'm fresh !



Juice for cleansing should be cold pressed juice to avoid  enzyme loss .
I make my juice at home with cold pressed juice maker.

Ideally,All veg and fruits should be  organic for cleansing.

HERBORISTERIE D'HIPPOCRATE at Paris

I always visit  herboristerie ,which means herb shop in English , whenever I visit France.
I visited a few herb shops when I went there in Feburuary and I got a lot of herbs for both my work and personal use.



This time , I stayed Saint-Germaine area for a week.
I found  an old  herboristerie near the hotel I stayed and I visited there a few times.
The shop appearance was very quaint and it instantly attracted me .
Although I'm always  excited when I visit herb shops in France, shopping at this shop was really exciting experiences for me .
It seems that the shop hasn't changed anything since it started.
It was shabby in a good way  and not  so commercialized .
It's not like a shop , more like a pharmacy .
Once I stepped into the shop , I was overwhelmed  by a large number of herbs on the shelves .




I managed to communicate with the herbalist and buy herbs  even though we didn't understand well eachother.I don't speak French and  she doesn't speak English .



Unfortunately I got  bad flue in Paris and I bought some remedies to cure and took them 3-4 times a day and It worked very well!!

Here are herb medicines that helped me a lot .
Good  for  sleep,  reducing fever ,  sore throat .

Vitamin C Bomb ''Rose hip tea''

I have some herbal tea recipe that helps  prevent  skin pigmentation.
One of the most efficient tea is a rose hip  tea.

One of the most common causes of   pigmentation is UV rays.
For me, this tea is necessary because I  easily get   exposed strong sunshine here in SIngapore.
I also  recommend this tea for those suffering  from annoying  skin pigmentation.

It helps a lot to avoid annoying pigmentation.
not only in preventing new pigmentaion but also in gently removing old ones  .
I  try to take this tea before and after  engaging in outdoor activities.

Rosehip tea is called '' vitamin C bomb'' because it is rich in vitamin C.

Here are the amazing benefits of Rose hip tea.

・It has 20 times more  vitamin C than lemon , not only avoids pigmentation but also regenerates collagen in your skin.

・It is rich in antioxidant that help slow down aging process  .

・Helps to reduce fatigue.

 Refreshing .

・Boosts immune system .

・regulates  skin turn over because of β-carotene.

・Contains Iron that helps  brighten sallow and  dull skin .

Benefits of Lemon grass oil on legs

I use lemon grass oil every morning before I leave for work.
I mean, I give my legs massage with lemon grass oil every morning.
There are two reasons why I use lemon grass oil.

Firstly , lemon grass oil can improve  circulation and keep your legs warm .
I always try to keep my body warm because it's so important not only for health but also beauty.
Of course beauty is always linked to health.
If you want to maintain your beauty, you should keep your circulation healthy .
Keeping your body warm is the key to maintain a beautiful and glowing skin.
I use lemon grass oil  to get warm so that I can keep my skin glowing.
And also , keeping  your legs warm can  prevent them from swelling. 


Secondly, lemon grass oil is  good to tighten your skin. 
Unfortunately , the skin becomes loose and sagged as we get older.
I feel really sad when I see my leg's skin loose and sagging .
Sagging skin makes you look older even though the facial skin is glowing.
But  lemon grass oil  is the answer to sagging skin , if you are annoyed of sagging skin.
Lemon grass can make your skin firm .

If you use  lemon grass oil with good quality , you'll get the results within one week.
you will feel the difference after using it.  Your legs will be  relieved from swelling and the skin will be firm and glowing .
you can get the perfect beautiful legs that you have always dreamed of.

Keeping the legs firm and  the skin glowing makes women look more elegant and sophisticated.

My first IKEBANA lesson of the year 2015

I had IKEBANA lessen this morning and it was the first day of the  year 2015.
I was the only  student who participated this lesson . Other students except me were all sick,unfortunately.

Actually, It has been more than 2months since the last time I joined the lesson.
I felt difficult to arrange the flowers at the beginning because I've been away for a long time.

My teacher helped me a lot and she completed the work because I was  confused and I couldn't complete them.

Here is today's work.
These IKEBANA work is not mine, My teacher did all of them instead of me because I was confused.

This  pink and yellow  combination reminded me of fresh spring in Japan.



 The moment  I saw  her  arrangement, I almost cried because I was sure I felt  the essence of the flowers and greens .
It was so beautiful , I felt Japan through her work and miss Japan so much.
She could catch the essence of the flowers and greens and showed me them.


Since I saw her work for the first time ,I always think that She has an amazing gift from God when it comes to IKEBANA.
She always shows us fabulous arrangement and It's like  magic.
She always knows how to find the best way to arrange the flowers . Any kind of flowers and greens doesn't matter  for her.
I'm sure that  she has magic hands.

I was deeply moved and inspired  not only by her work but also the way  she showed life to me.
She expresses herself through her work and lives her life to the fullest .
 It reminds me that life is an  art and it's beautiful .

 Happy new year 2015

Happy new year 2015!
It has already been 1 week.

I'm quite surprised to know that I've been away from this blog more than 2month !!
I was too  busy to be back to my blogs.
Last year I opened my beauty salon and I really  focused on my work there.
I've got many wonderful clients last year even though I've just started my small salon.
I really appreciate it.
I'd like to expand my business more and more in 2015 .


Now I am planning a few things to improve my beauty salon for this year and it's really exciting!!
I guess I'll be able to share about this one month later .It's going to happen soon.

Anyway
I set my goal to keep my blog active this year and I will share my idea and things about beauty and natural life style.

See you on my next blog!!

Create my life

I'd like to  share some word which I was impressed deeply.
That is very true.
I live my life , I create my life, I love my life, I enjoy my life.
life is beautiful.



“The deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. You are not discovering yourself, but creating yourself anew. Seek, therefore, not to find out Who You Are, seek to determine Who You Want to Be.”



- Neale Donald Walsch
