After a professional waxing, you will never look at that old razor the same again.
Here are the top 5 reasons why:
1. Waxing saves time
Visit the spa once and you are set for weeks. Free up your time, you deserve it!
2. Free from nicks, cuts or razor burns
Hate those unsightly cuts and nicks all over your skin when shaving. Unlike shaving, waxing results in smooth skin with no cuts and razor burns. Continue reading “5 Benefits of Waxing”
In Olympic events, the gold, silver, and bronze medal goes to the athlete that did the best, second best and the third best. You’d expect, then, that the bronze, silver, and gold would feel happy, happier, and happiest right? Strangely, that’s not the case. The athlete who wins bronzes routinely feels happier than the athlete who wins silver. It all comes down to a quirk of human psychology.
For a study published about Social Psychology, the researchers edited down film clips of roughly 40 silver and bronze medal winners at the 1992 summer Olympics. The clips came in tow versions: the immediate reaction to the winner announcements directly following the event, and the athlete at the medal ceremony hours later. Students were asked to rate the athletes reactions on a 10 point scale without telling them which medal each athlete won.
Smile Silver, It’s still an amazing accomplishment!
The results found that the bronze medalists appeared much happier than the silver medalists. The participants rated the bronze medalists at 7.1 while silver medalists were rated only 4.8. This paradoxical reaction is chalked up to something called “Courterfactual thinking” instead of thinking of your achievement objectively, you compare it to what “might have been.” For the silver medalist that thought is probably that they could have won the gold if they had done a little better. For the bronze however, it’s the opposite: they almost didn’t win a medal at all, and the reason that the bronze medalist is generally happier with their achievement.
Ever noticed that some of your most creative thinking is done while you’re walking? Whether you’re walking to work, a friend’s house, or even your car, your mind starts going. Research shows it’s not all in your head.
It doesn’t matter if you’re walking on a treadmill or along the beach, it’s the simple act of walking that helps boost creativity, according to a 2014 study from Stanford University. They conducted four experiments, testing participants on things like coming up with alternate uses for everyday items. In each case, individuals who were walking came up with ideas that were more “novel and appropriate” than participants who were seated. “The creative output increased by an average of 60% when the person was walking,” according to the study.

Environmental pollution and lack of physical activity, all add up to make you vulnerable to diseases. It becomes imperative to unwind and rejuvenate for better health and happiness. Hot Stone Massage is a therapy used extensively to provide deep relaxation to the body. Read on to know how it works.
What is a Hot Stone Massage Therapy?
No doubt, any massage works wonders to relax your body, but the hot stone therapy has a deep relaxing effect. Natural stones made of basalt are used for the therapy in which the stones are first heated in water.
