Life and balance

By -
As a mother of two boisterous, healthy and active children who runs a couple of gigs, I know what trying to live a balanced life feels like: like dragging a bag of rice tied around your waist while trying to smile and let the whole world see how much of a fabulous superwoman you are. But guess what, there really is no balance!
My Figure 8 Nigeria. 


In school, you can't wait to work, at work you can't wait to resign. Single, you want to get married, You get married, and while you are trying to adjust, you get pregnant (or you don't and you get worried), you have finally adjusted to pushing your weight around and out pops lil you. Trying to adjust to the constant cries, then. The constant questions start all of a sudden!

You get it? Life is forever evolving and trying to reach a place of perfect calm is quite, hmnnn tedious to say the least.
Just be you, be happy, listen to yourself, your spirit, your body, be grateful for what you have, eat well, sleep well, live well.
Strive for happiness. I guess happiness is the balance we seek after all"

Today,  we are examining the many benefits of carrots. The yummy, crunchy, juicy , orange (though it can be other colours) root vegetable that is common in Nigeria during dry season. Carrots can be juiced alone or in smoothies,  eaten alone or with a dip (e.g peanut butter)  as a snack,  can be used in soups and sauces, salads and as a garnish in rice and pasta dishes. Garnishing with carrots  But that's not all about carrots. They are an excellent source of beta carotene and fiber not forgetting Vit A, C,  K, B8, pantothenic acid,  dilate,  potass...

Get rid of acne naturally and fast!

Hi!! It is such a beautiful day and the day is too beautiful to not to love your skin! Your skin is the largest organ of the your body. You like your skin. Your skin likes you. It protects you from the elements that can harm you and it keeps you together (imagine what you'd look like without the skin...  Ewww right?) . So you should do your best to protect it from any kind of damage. Let's paint a typical scenario : One morning you wake up to see acne breakouts on your face (oops!) and you suddenly hate your skin. You turn to harsh chemicals, and expensive scrubs. Isn't that is a very terrible way to reward a friend who’s been there for you since day one? Your epidermis isn’t at fault here-it can’t help that your hormones are causing all that extra sebum to block up your pores, or the fact that bacteria is running rampant. If your skin could talk it would say why are you punishing me for a crime I didn't commit... That’s just a guess anyways. The point is, na...
