All tighten up and stiff from last month's "giving and caring" for ungrateful relatives?
Lop-sided from all that shuffling and heaving loads of grocery and baggage through the woods to Grandma's House for the holidays?
Partake in too much revelries? Overloaded on the indulgences?
Need some serious "Me Time" to counter-balance your system so you can tackle the New Year with both feet on the ground?
Lucky you...Awards Season, with the Golden Globes igniting it, is around the corner and really need to recharge and freshen up...stat!?
This jet-setting, road warrior of a scribe has been pondering this and being testing out various holistic and homeopathic treats and healthy remedies to keep you flawless while keeping you going and going, charging straight into Awards Season, Hollywood's High Society Season. For the East Coasters, these regiments and treatments and treats will fuel you up, marching into New York Fashion Week.
For anyone deep into the entertainment/fashion industry who's knee-deep in Awards Season, all she or/and he are asking...how to kneed out knots, the sore muscles, and even out the joints and the spine, when you're lugging heavy camera, video, and computer equipment. To make it even more glamorous, you're packing in your notebook and tablet to provide ravenous readers up-t0-date news on who's who, who's what, and what they're wearing. All this media coverage can and does take a toll on one's skeletal alignment, spine, collar bone, shoulders, and carpal tunnel syndrome.
Let's get real, your body is like a car. If the car's skeleton or chassis is crooked, then your whole body is going to break down.
Industry people are high-maintenance, not because of vanity, but of demands.
Burke-Willliams Spa is here to care. In fact, some of the massage therapists are former professional photographers who understand first hand of lugging heavy equipment from point A to point Z to point K in one day...and that's not the end of it.
Burke Williams offers the Massage and Dot.com Enhancement add-on to their standard massage treatments. Aiming to kneed out the knot of the tendons and ligaments out of the forearms and wrists, this
revolutionary massage technique incorporates back bolstering, strategic
pressure and therapeutic stretching into a relaxing full body massage
for the optimum rejuvenation.
Focused on the neck, shoulders, arms, hands, wrists and upper body, this
enhancement incorporates a specially designed series of stretches and
massage tools to make Dot.com the ultimate solution to living with
technology.
Dot.com addresses
prevalent issues from everyday life including head and shoulder forward
posture, thoracic outlet syndrome and carpel tunnel syndrome. The
service incorporates a back bolstering technique to work the shoulder
girdle area, use of a therapeutic ball for shoulder and arm work, and a
therapeutic wand as a way to enhance the stretching techniques used to
open up the pectoral muscles and extend the front of the chest. This
powerful combination of techniques target tension in the neck, back and
shoulders. Although the service is designed to be therapeutic, guests
will still receive the benefits of rest and relaxation through clay heat
packs that help calm and center the body during the enhancement
session.
The
Dot.com enhancement can be added on to a Pure Relaxation Massage or
Deep Tissue Massage. The enhancement will last 20 minutes of the entire
massage experience. The service will produce immediate results in
posture. It is recommended that Dot.com be experienced regularly in
order to produce the most effective and lasting results.

Now, that you ease into the New Year with loosen joints and got your alignment and balance back, let's clean up our palate.
Nutritionist to the stars, such as Dita Von Teese, Vince Vaughn, James Spader, and Matt Bromer, and Drew Barrymore, Kimberly Snyder, C.N., put out the "The Beauty Detox Solution: Eat Your Way to Radiant Skin, Renewed Energy and the Body You've Always Wanted" Book for those who want to clean out the crud out of their pores and their system if they can't make it to her Kimberly Snyder's Glow Bio on 7473 Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood, CA.
Don't worry. Don't ponder. This juice-loving scribe had the perks of personally sipping and nibbling her yummy concoctions..;and they're delicious as they are refreshing and affordable.
Need to get your vibe in sync with the New Year?
Get your vibes in harmony at RA MA Institute's Kundalini yoga class for Metabolic Revving, Pituitary Activating, Decades of Stress Releasing and Anti-Aging benefits on 304 Lincoln Boulevard, Venice, California 90291, located off Lincoln and Rose at http://ramayogainstitute.com
Now, that you re-set your joints, cleaned out your systems, and de-tox your mind, let's add-on some supplements to rejuvenate your system, radiate internally, and fortify those skin cells.
"Party-Harty" for two weeks straight (then that one-night/day bender called "Thanksgiving") can really wreak your skin.

Not only can you rejuvenate your face with TAUT's Collagen masks, http://www.taut.com.au/collagen-infusion-mask.asp, for an one-night pick-me-up, you can sip TAUT's Gold Standard Collagen Orange Drinks.
This orange-flavored Shark Cartilage Extract, Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide drink with vitamins such as B1, B2, B6, E and Beta-carotene, are "healthy" shots of collagen and vitamins instead of jello shots with vodka. They can also be sneaked to boost your smoothie or mineral water...ok, soda. These TAUT Collagen shots can bought at GNC or New Beauty at Fred Segal in Santa Monica.

Rather have a nap? Easy-pleasy, just peel and apply TAUT's Collagen Mask over your face, for a quick nap or a long sleep; and you'll feel fresh sans oil.
http://www.neocell.com/products-bursts-chews-mint.php for chocolate mint on the left, and http://www.neocell.com/products-bursts-chews-punch.php for fruit punch on the right.
Thank God for calcium chews that comes in chocolate and caramels (once in awhile, you'll be lucky to catch some in orange, vanilla, and strawberry), they led the way in chewable collagen taffies, NeoCell Beauty Bursts, gourmet collagen soft chews in chocolate mint and fruit punch. They're "inner beauty" on the go. This scribe should know since this scribe was chewing them on the plane for a little "beauty snack."
Because rotting fruit in your purse or tote bag is nasty, TAUT's Collagen Orange Drink shots in 50ml. mini-bottles and NeoCell Beauty Bursts chews are an easier and cleaner way to refuel your skin cells on the go, in your car...even with screaming kids or you screaming in traffic.

Craving for that fulfilling but naughty candy bar? KIND Snack Bars have their own version of the chewy caramel-nougat candy bar-their KIND Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate + Protein is a
healthy & satisfying blend of peanuts and antioxidant-rich dark
chocolate. Each bar contains 7 grams of protein, which promotes satiety
and strengthens bones, muscles and skin. Which ever nutrient and/or vitamin that strengthens the bones, also builds up the skin. KIND's peanut butter makes you forget the nougat.

Coenzyme Q10, a.k.a. CoQ10 is all the rage and has been all the rage for quite some time now, in facial cream. If you can ingest it, it'll work more effectively.
If you're old-school and can't see yourself guzzling gallons of tea, one pop of Dr. Vita's Six Daily Advanced Multi-Vitamin rich in CoQ10, alpha lipoic acid,
magnesium, and B-complex, saves you from drinking five cups of green tea...if drinking five cups of tea in one setting or even drinking green tea isn't your "cup of tea."

Another CoQ10 vitamin is TwinLab's Skin Within, a liquid capsule to support healthy skin from the inside out. Since CoQ10 decreases as we age, we need supplements of CoQ10 to utilize oxygen in cellular energy metabolism and tackle free radical scavenging.
TwinLab Skin Within also contains astaxanthin, a carotenoid similar in structure to beta carotene. Astaxanthin has been clinically tested to significantly reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve the moisture
content of dry skin, and significantly improve skin elasticity.
With all this easy options, you can get your body in gear and your face and skin fortified and fabulous for the intense-glare of Awards Season or tackling the New Year with a fresh appearance.
