In this October month of “breast cancer awareness” it is a good time to remind women about the many lifestyle changes you can make to prevent breast cancer in the first place.

- A bowl large enough to fit your feet, warm ...

If you a middle aged or “growing older” woman, do not feel guilty when you enjoy a glass of wine as a nightcap each evening. It now transpires that this is good for you and will actually mean you are far more likely to reach three score years and ten in generally good health (free of conditions like cancer, diabetes and heart disease) than your heavy drinking or abstaining friends. The added advantage is that you could be more mentally ...

Many people (and especially women) enjoy a soaking and relaxing bath time routine rather than an exhilarating shower but if you add essential oils to your bath, you can transform an every day occurrence into a heavenly one.
