"Work It Out"
|
|
| |
|
 The best
thing you can do in terms of fitness before your big event is to
go for a power
 walk (where you are walking on the verge of
running) for 30 minutes. Those who like running can alternate
between running and walking. Skipping is also a good cardio
option.
“This quick cardio session will have you glowing and feeling
good,” says fitness expert and personal trainer Deanne Panday
adding, “You can also do a set each of crunches, push-ups and
tricep dips.” Finishing your workout with a yoga session or five
minutes of meditaion will leave you feeling refreshed. Do your
favourite ‘asana’ or a breathing exercise. And spend five
minutes quietly, with yourself meditating.

"Quick Fix
for Your Hair" |
|
|
|
|
 Is your hair looking dry and
damaged, dull and lifeless? Rich Feel recommends these quick
fixes for a week and notice the difference.
DIET: Your hair is nourished
by your bloodstream and lack of nutrition will result in dull
and lifeless looking hair. Nourish your hair with hair food-
palak, paneer and milk are great for the hair as also any food
rich in protein. Make sure you drink plenty of water (about 14
glasses or water) to flush out toxins and prevent split ends and
make your hair strong, healthy and beautiful.
HOME CARE: Condition your
hair by oiling it at once a week, leave the oil in overnight,
and wash off next day. If your hair is colored or permed, try a
deep conditioning treatment. Massage your hair thoroughly with
oil, use a steamer to run steam through your hair and keep it
bundled in a towel or a cling wrap for some time so that the
heat socks in. |
