Raspberry Moon and other things
Today I had my very first facial, back bliss and paraffin hands/feet treatment at Raspberry Moon in Greenville. WOW!!! I was blown away by how relaxing it all was. Nicole was very professional and made me feel so comfortable while in her office. She truly has hands of a goddess. The temp was comfy, the decor was nice...I liked the colors (earth tones), the music was relaxing...it was all good. I felt secure with my privacy (not worried about someone rushing in during the treatment). The whole atmosphere was just ever so relaxing. I know I keep repeating that, but it is so true and I can't think of anything else at the moment to describe it. Talking with Nicole was great as well. I like the fact that she isn't a chatty cathy but seems to know when to talk and when to enjoy silence during the treatments (much appreciated). She really knows her stuff when it comes to skin care and I enjoyed listening to what she had to say. Another huge plus for me is her holistic approach to skin care. My skin looks awesome still (its after midnight now and I had this done at 9:30 this morning!) and it hasn't felt this good in ages (if ever). Even without touching it, my skin feels so much softer and firmer; I am enjoying having it cover my body. When I touch my face (hands/feet and back) I swear it feels silky and I don't think my skin has ever had that adjective used for it. At any rate, I give Raspberry Moon a solid 5 star rating. I doubt that I have ever had such a fantastic experience and am looking forward to another visit. I put a link to her site on my links page.

Now for "other things"...

I am kind of liking the Easley weather module on the News page. I'm hoping that website viewers are enjoying it as well. I am also fiddling around with the new calendar format. So far I like that pretty well as it certainly seems to be simpler than what I was doing. I hope to have the rest of the teleseminars and product focus calls added later this week. Just a FYI: when I do manage to listen in on the calls I always take notes and send them out to my downline members (NSP and New Sun) as well as anyone else who may be interested. Feel free to use the Contact page to let me know if you'd like this information, just don't forget to click the box for "I want to receive newsletters, updates and special offers". I am working on learning how to use the email newsletter application so it will make everything more streamlined and simpler for me. Some ideas that I have been considering for the website include a page for sexual health/education that is suitable for adults and children/teens(nothing pornographic), an introduction to Reiki page (which may eventually have the option to take my Reiki classes online), a page for memorial service planning and advance directives/healthcare power of attorney/living will information (which I think are very important), a page outlining the services that I am able to offer with the option to secure the services online (I use PayPal), a page for pet care, and I want to add more information to the existing pages. Since we have recently moved (and are still getting settled, moving takes forever!) what was once my home office is now in boxes here, there and everywhere so it may take me a bit to get situated and have these things up and running with the site..plus I am just slow in the techno department. I'm always open to suggestions so feel free to let me know what you like or hate about my website or if you'd like to see anything in particular information wise.

I brought back the "astore" that I had on the site before. I've had such a nightmare with figuring out exactly how to work that thing and get it loaded on my site. Before you start telling me how simple it is keep in mind that I am very much technologically challenged! It takes me a little longer than what I consider "normal" to get techno stuff right. I am still figuring out how to use all of the applications for my website!! Last time I had the astore going I got really annoyed at trying to update the products listed. Needless to say I kept doing something wrong and finally just deleted the page from my website. When I went back to add it again, everything went rather smoothly this time. Perhaps the universe is telling me something? This time around I have added only 18 items that I like which include bellydance products, reiki, gemstones, and books about learned optimism, meditation, happiness, and grief. Perhaps when I'm feeling frisky I'll go back and add more to it, but for right now I'm leaving well enough alone!


Thanks for reading my blog and visiting my website!!

This is only a test
I'm just checking this out to see how it will work. I'm attempting to add a blog to my website to allow me to voice my opinions about different health and spiritual matters. I've deleted the link to the 360 page as I have not and will not be updating that blog anymore. Too many websites to keep up with gets confusing!! Hopefully this will simplify the matter for me.

Recommendation: "Nutritional Cures" Newsletter Delivers Breakthrough Natural Cures Each Month

I'd like to introduce you to an "underground" information source I subscribe to in order to stay up to date on cutting-edge nutritional information. It's a newsletter I've read for years, even long before I started writing for NaturalNews, and I find it to be a wellspring of information about practical, yet powerful health solutions that simply aren't covered in everyday magazines or the mainstream media (MSM). Here, I'll review this publication and reveal why I think it's a tremendous resource for learning about the latest nutritional breakthroughs that can literally cure serious disease while enhancing your health far beyond what you might have thought possible...
