Today I composed an “it’s not a party without ____” list about my Saturday night out. You can view that here. I also thought I’d divulge some stuff that I’ve recently gotten into:
1. Kiehls Foaming Non-Detergent Washable Face Cleanser.
Sick of your dermatologist saying ‘just use Cetaphil blah blah’ doctor talk since it's one of the few products they can defer you to law-suit-risk free? Try this stuff. It’s cheap compared to other high-end facial cleansers and comes in the largest 17 oz bottle for $26.50. It was recommended to me by a skin care expert and I’ve been enjoying the results.
Ekhart wrote this book “The Power of Now” that people went ga-ga over a few years ago and went completely over my head. Now however, he has this new Opera-approved novel called “A New Earth,” which has nothing to do with the earth but serves rather as a guide to understanding your ego. So the title remains baffling to me and I advise skipping the first chapter (which is whacky and New Age and will drag you down.) Pick up on Chapter 2 and get ready to experience pure genius. This book made me feel less insane every day I read it.
I now wish Eckhart could cancel his busy schedule to just come and live with me as my own personal spiritual advisor. Every time I’m upset, crabby, having trouble purging my negativity, picking out clothing or need help composing a text message, he’d just be there to help me through it. Eckhart? Are you interested?3. Juice / Water Fasting. I’m determined to try this. Let’s see if I make it through alive.
Fasting provides a period of concentrated physiological rest during which time the body can devote its self-healing mechanisms to repairing and strengthening damaged organs. The process of fasting also allows the body to cleanse cells of accumulated toxins and waste products.
Fasting gives the digestive tract time to completely rest and strengthen its mucosal lining. A healthy intestinal mucosal lining is necessary for preventing the leakage of incompletely digested proteins into the bloodstream, thereby offering protection from autoimmune conditions. A healthy digestive tract also helps to protect the blood and inner organs against a variety of environmental and metabolic toxins.
Gross, but I buy it.
4. Ne-Yo: I forgot how oddly soothing elevator music by rappers can be. His over-the-top cheesy dance moves are absolutely worth checking out.
