Its not about the Stem Cells, its about the DNA
As Thailand continues to be one of the leaders in all things Beauty and Spa,Lamone is one example of deep science at the forefront when it comes toexfoliation, brightening and bringing a clean youthfulness to the skin.
When traveling to Thailand recently, Enjoy Beauty International discoveredthe beautiful Lamone prod-uct in the spa at JW Mar-riott. We tried the two-stepproduct, and have beensolid with it ever since.
We found that Lamone hasspecial lactobacillus cul-tures, which delivers the in-credible results of thecleanser. Within the cleanser,macrophages are stimulatedin the skin. The Macro-phages digest DNAs, whichcontain CpG (a nutrient forcells). Now, growth factor(Cytokines) are generated which rejuvenate stem cells from destructive conditions. The result is diminishing dark spots and an end to pigmentation.
In step two we tried the DNA serum, which has powerful active ingredientsof DNA-L and F-Antiox Complex. The serum penetrates deep into the skinto activate stem cell division together with a high concentrated antioxidantcomplex from fermented berries, (Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin D) to preventfree radical skin cell damage. The Lamone hi-potency serum is the equivalentof lactobacillus in over 300 cups of yoghurt. www.magicrootthailand.com

theWrinklePreventionPillow
We took the Wrinkle Pillowall the way to Bali! Results?The General Manager ofthe 5-star resort where westayed loved it and is nowa user.
Why does everyone lovethis pillow so much? Be-cause it was designed togive you the most restfulnights sleep while helpingto prevent the occurrenceof permanent sleep linesand wrinkles caused by nightly compressionagainst your pillow.
Heres the dierence; the patented design lifts and cradles your head so thatyour face never touches the pillow and permanent lines and wrinkles don'tdevelop on the face, neck and chest during sleep. The contoured centermakes sleeping on your back more comfortable and the built-in gentle eleva-tion helps to reduce the signs of morning eye puness. The pillow is also encased in a satiny cover, which helps preserve the texture and style of yourhair better than a traditional pillowcase. And nally, the pillows unique designhelps to prevent tossing and turning.
And, heres some additional benets we noticed: your night creams and prod-ucts will last longer as they will not rub o on the pillow. It has a beautiful satinypillowcase, which is great for your skin and does not snag your hair. The pillowis wonderful for anyone with eyelash extensions because your face (and eyes)do not touch the pillow. It is a one size ts all, and perfect for all skin types.

And, plenty of chances
to break all the rules.
The chance to visit Bali hasbeen a dream of mine formany years. The idea wasformed after spending a month inJakarta and the Indonesian island ofEast Irian Jaya, New Guinea over 15years ago. It was the beautiful pictures I saw of Bali back then, thatlived in my mind all these years thatmade me want to go back.

A New Invitation
What brought me to Indonesia this time wasan invitation to teach Chinese Fan Dance as aGuest Artist at Spa Village Tembok Resort, aproperty of the prestigious yTL Hotel Groupof Malaysia.
But before heading up the coast to Tembokwhere it is fairly remote, I ventured to the littlevillage of Ubud, for I was told it was really special. I was not disappointed.
To be candid, this was not theperfect chamber-of-commercewell organized, time managedarranged trip. This trip wascompletely different, and muchmore gratifying. I winged itfrom start to finish.
On the way to Ubud
The cab journey from Denpasar InternationalAirport to Ubud took about ninety minutes.From Denpasar to Ubud, I passed open-airworkshops with beautiful Balinese furniture,Hindu temples, and what seemed like an un-ceasing line of little shops and stalls. I was in-trigued to see people sweeping frenziedlyoutside every door.

I checked into a boutique resort called GrandSunti Resort, which was really nice and not tootouristy. I quickly stashed my baggage, bothguratively and literally, and went to the out-door spa, which I had seen behind walls on apath leading through Koi ponds. I chose thetraditional body scrub called Boreh, a divineblend of cloves, rice, ginger and galangal.What a beautiful treatment, provided by a Ba-
linese woman who showed such a respectfulgentleness, a touch liken to the most loving ofhuman kindness.
Venturing out into the small winding streets ofUbud, I found many little shops, selling all sortsof fascinating things, particularly Batik sarongs.These shops sat next to Hindu temples, whereincense and oerings are given up throughout

While in Ubud, the Hindu spiritual festi-val of Galungan was taking place, whichis a holiday celebrating the victory ofdharma over adharma symbolizing thevictory of good over evil. For ten days,Balinese families will entertain and wel-come prayers, oerings and ceremoniesto cleanse and balance the inner andouter energy on the island. I absolutelyloved watching the Barong dances,which went from temple to temple ineach village.

The trip was not a casual drive - it was an event!
I wanted to stay longer to experience the cer-emonies of Ubud, but my invitation at Spa Vil-lage Tembok Resort was waiting. The next day,Tembok sent a driver to pick me up, and we setout for the long drive to the north end of Bali.
It was an exciting three-hour journey aroundthe prodigious volcano of Mount Batur to getto the Spa Village Tembok Resort. We traveledalong twisty narrow roads over mountains andthrough valleys, passing through countless lit-tle villages. In this area of Bali, you forego thecrowded big named resorts.

My Arrival
There are no close-by villages, no stores andInternet is a very slow dial-up aair. yes, uphere on the north end of the island, its justthe purity of a glorious unspoiled beach anda fabulous resort!
The Spa Village Tembok Resort is one of thenest retreats you could ever visit. The invit-ing and gracious hospitality and rst-classservice were in evidence from the moment Iarrived, when I sat in the huge open-air reception area and received a refreshingglass of Jamu, a Balinese health tonic. Next,my feet were cleansed along with a foot andneck massage at the same time. What a gracious welcome after the long drive.
Situated in an oasis of peace and tranquility,with just the gentle soundtrack of thenearby ocean, Spa Village Tembok Resortpromotes a deep sense of balance. you simply cannot be uptight here. The quietsolitude brings you immediately into thesense of calm needed for a two-week retreat.

ItWorks!!WhyisthisbodyWrapcalledItWorks?
because,ItWorks!
Is this wrap too good to be true? Thats what I thought, but after using ItWorks, our Enjoy Beauty International team was pretty impressed.
The wrap is delivered in individual pieces that can be used for any body part.We had fun here at Enjoy Beauty as we each tried a dierent body part. Weput on our wrap, then waited 45 minutes. The non-woven cloth wrap is in-fused with a powerful botanically based formula, which we found delivers truerming and smoother skin. The hydration on the skin was wonderful!

The Spirit of the Land
The natural beauty of Sedona is extraordinary from any perspective, butthe closer you get, the deeper your experience will be. Visitors say the spirits of the land speak to them. The Native Americans who know the truestory of this area are sharing their tribal wisdom, showing others how tolive in harmony with the earth.
Throughout the area, red-walled canyons hold well-preserved cli dwellingswhere centuries of civilizations as far back as AD 1400 dwelled. Known asthe hunter-gatherers, tribes such as the Sinagua, yavapai-Apache and theHopi, all left their mark in their own distinctive rock-art style.
Today, Sedona is internationally known for the uplifting power of its Vortexmeditation sites and alternative healers. Living this close to the beauty ofthe land has inspired many profoundly talented healers to live in Sedona.As our body-temples are complex multi-dimensional organisms, Sedonahealers apply their gifts to every level of the body/mind/spirit spectrum.

The Vortex Energy
Its about how you perceive it The Sedona vortex sites are known as special places within the earth wherethe life force of the planet is particularly strong. Some of these energy centers reportedly carry an electric charge. It is in these Vortex sites, orenhanced energy locations, that it is possible for one to facilitate deepprayer, meditation, mind/body healing, and exploring ones relationship withthe Soul.
Recently the PBS program Nova, featured a breakthrough in physics called"String Theory" (also known as super-strings) that is revolutionizing all of science on the same order of magnitude that Einstein's discoveries did inthe early 1900's. The key spiritual implications of super-strings is that theworld's top scientists agree that all things exist in a minimum of 10 or moredimensions. Simply stated Vortex sites are locations having energy ows inthose deeper dimensions that the Soul can soar on.
If one is at all sensitive, it is easy to feel the energy at these vortexes andto experience an uplifting soul moment. The energy absorbed in this waycan have a positive eect for many days following. People come from allover the world to experience this massively loving and life-altering energy.

nick, you have had an amazing journey with body bliss how did your connection to botany and plants originate?
Everyone in my family was deeply connected with nature, andwith plants in particular. My grandfather, an Air Force ocer andkeen amateur botanist, was my rst teacher. Following him insearch of rare plants as a child, I began to absorb his passionand understanding of the plant world. Among his many inu-ences on me, his interest in Asia, comparative religion, and theZen tradition have stayed with me all my life.
My love of plants eventually led me to completing my degree inBotany at Oxford University under the tutelage of Dr. Barry Juniper.

When going to a spa, we often see aromatherapy as an addon to a massage or treatment. I always thought that spasshould oer the aromatherapy as a standard part of a treat-ment. do you have an opinion on this?
Absolutely this is one area where I have a lot of opinions! I thinkof Aromatherapy as one of the three pillars of spa the othersbeing touch and water. People sometimes think they are over-whelmed by, or allergic to, aromatherapy when often they arethinking of unpleasant experiences they have had when smellingsynthetic or poor quality oils. True aromatherapy is a subtle experience and in a spa treatment, if the therapist includes anaromatherapy element early on, the healing eect of the sessioncan be greatly enhanced.
What can you share about how to feel the energetics of plantsand what do you think a person can gain from having a connec-tion with plant life?
Plants reect beauty and practicality in every aspect of life. Isometimes spend time with one plant aroma to the exclusion ofall others trying to become sensitive to how that aroma aectsmy thinking, my feeling and my physical state. My interaction withplants, and especially their essences, enriches my whole day and,I feel sure, benets my well-being. I cook with essential oils, travelwith essential oils, sleep with essential oils! For me, aromatherapyis an integral part of a healthy, happy and abundant lifestyle.

I can see where your life path is what has inuenced the linesyou have created. Im thinking that the chakra line naturallycame from your years in India? how did that part of the jour-ney become an inuence?
One of the reasons for me being in India was my interest in med-itation and the esoteric. These interests led me to Sedona, andblossomed even more as a result of being there. This fascinationwith exploring chakra energies as a way to understanding theself was shared with my original Body Bliss partner, and theChakra Balance Vibrational Oils were the rst creation of BodyBliss. This line also uses the vibrational qualities of gemstones toattune and protect the oils.
My time in India also led to a profound appreciation of Ayurvedichealing, and as a result we were commissioned to make tradi-tionally prepared herbal oils for the Chopra Healing Center inthe US. Our Ayurvedic products are an extension of my deep feltlove of India.

do you believe that aromatherapy based on plant life fromspecics regions of the world makes a dierence in where theyare used? for example, if someone used your native botani-cals line in say, Thailand would there be any sort of new dimen-sion for the person using the products?
That is an interesting question. Scents are so evocative, and justas the smell of ripe mango or coconut can transport us to tropicalclimes, I am sure that the scent of wild sage might communicatethe inspiring spaciousness and clarity of the Southwest to some-one lucky enough to breath in its scent in Thailand.
With being in the southwest I can imagine you really took tothe dierence in plant life here.
The Southwest was quite an adjustment for a boy from rainy Eng-land! Over the years I have fallen in love with its grandeur andthe tenacity of the plants that survive here. The local Indian cul-tures of course knew the potential of every plant of the desertand canyon, and these plants became the inspiration for our Native Botanicals collection. Extracts of white sage, prickly pearand wild chaparral are just some of the healing botanicals weregularly use.

I can see where this has signicance within the story you toldme about the barefoot doctors from china. I love this story,can you share this knowledge?
After the Cultural Revolution in China healthcare provision wasprimarily only available in urban areas. To address this ChairmanMao instigated a program to train rural farmers in basic health-care infection control, basic medical procedures, midwifery andthe like. They were given a set of medicines, both Western andChinese, that they would dispense. Often they grew their ownherbs in the backyard. It is interesting that although these Bare-foot Doctors, as they came to be known, still spent about halftheir time involved with farm work, about twenty percent of themlater went on to enter medical school.
Anyway, I have always loved this idea of people going barefootfrom town to town spreading wellness and compassion. I spend

much of my time travelling from spa to spa, visiting communitiesof spa therapists, and spreading my enthusiasm for the therapeu-tic power of botanical aromatics. I envisaged a character that Icalled the Barefoot Botanist who spends his time coaxing thegoodness from plants and sharing it around. He is a lot like me!This led to the development of our Barefoot Botanist collection,home to some of my favorite healing herbs such as calendula,chamomile and lavender.
Is there a nal product line that brings it all together?
Last year we took time to re-invent and re-package everythingwe do. As part of this process we lighted on the words Inten-tional Aromatherapy as the best descriptor of what Body Blissas a company does. Everything we do involves the use of trulytherapeutic aromatherapy oils, and everything we make, everyformula, contains a specic intention for a positive outcome fora persons well-being. This led to our Intentional Aromatherapycollection. It contains many of my favorite blends, from the extremely exotic and luxurious I LOVE blend of sandalwood,white magnolia and neroli to the precisely practical mlange ofimmortelle, lavender, marjoram and wintergreen in I PLAy.
now, you are 14 years with this journey developing body bliss- what will be your focus now in the future?
Our aim is to continue to strengthen the educational reach ofBody Bliss and to nd partners that can help spread these incredible products around the globe. Currently, we are partic-ularly excited about the strides we have made in making truly individualized aromatherapy treatments and products accessibleto the wider public. We call this Aroma Design. We will be actively expanding these oerings in the coming months, so thatspas and luxury hotels are able to create personalized aromaticlandscapes for their guests.

I came to visit Master Chen in September of 2012 to help withthe vision of building the wellness spa and retreat. What Idiscovered was a most beautiful 82-acre property, which waspreviously a working dude ranch. What special potential thisproperty had.
I stayed for a year!
A Spiritual Location
I learned that the Native American culture had thrived in thisvalley for centuries. They named it Tahosa Valley. The valleysits between the male mountain of Longs Peak, (14,500 fthigh), which makes up the western view, and the femalemountain of Twin Sisters Peak (11,429 ft high), which makes upthe eastern view. Between the two mountains is where TahosaValleys special energy thrives and where Aspen Lodge wasrst built in 1948.

Skin-2-SlimtheHotnew3-stepRegimentoReducetheappearanceofCellulite
3 Steps Amazing Results
step 1 The system starts with using Cell Renu, whichbegins the renewal process by dissolving the outerlayer of dead, dull skin, which is a natural environmen-tal barrier, which prevents the absorption of thehealthy ingredients. The natural enzymes gently dis-solves debris that clogs pores resulting in a smooth,fresh, bright-looking skin for your whole body. And,we found that Cell Renu is not just for the body, it isalso gentle enough to use on your face providing re-sults similar to microdermabrasion. With Swiss AppleStem Cell Culture Extracts and Peptides, youll alwayshave healthy skin cell metabolism which increases col-lagen production to reduce ne lines and wrinkles.
step 2 - The next step is the Sculpting Gel, which dissolves the excess lipid accumulation inthe outer layers of your skin to help rm, lift and tighten, which reduce the signs of cellulite.The Sculpting Gel is rich in peptides that restore the elastin-collagen network, increase cellstructure, and promotes your body's own production of collagen. The Peptides will boost thegrowth of connective tissue and help increase skin rmness.
step 3 - The Daily Slim continues the ght against the return of excess lipids that contributeto the appearance of cellulite that if left alone, will return. Daily Slim is rich with moisturizersand humectants that keep your skin hydrated all day and night. Natural polyphenols stimulatecell growth, suppress inammation, smoothes and tones the skin, and provides amino acidsnecessary to heal, reconstruct, and rejuvenate your skin. Regu-Shape helps reduce lipid ac-cumulation, reduces the size of lipids, and smoothes your skin. Tea, Ginseng, Mango, and Rose-mary extracts help rebuild your skin, strengthens your skins elasticity, and slows the agingprocess. skin-to-slim.com

Recently, I met with Sally Bridges who inspiredme with her unparalleled enthusiasm and spiritfor life. In this fast-paced world, everyone is chal-lenged - no one gets by easily. It was while I wastalking with Sally, that I was reminded we all havethe option about how we look at any situationwe are in.
Sally knows both the risks and rewards of rein-venting herself both professionally and person-ally. For more than 20 years as an executivewithin the health and wellness insurance indus-try, she managed over 22,000 physicians withprovider relationships and patient reimburse-ments.

Sally BridgesFinding Inspiration when you only have six months to live
-
96 enjoybeauty internat ional .com
Seeking a change, Sally perused her passionin the health and beauty industry. After receiv-ing her estheticians license, she graduatedwith honors and was invited to travel abroadto participate in an education with plastic sur-geons and professional skin care companies inBelgium, Paris, Italy, Tokyo, Ireland, Englandand Canada.
Through this experience she opened her owncompany - Bridges to Beauty.
Over the next fteen years, Sally opened sixdierent skincare clinics. These years of en-during many trials and tribulations are whatmade Sally an accomplished leader in teambuilding while at the same time, facilitatingbeauty and wellness for her clients.
The Turning Point
Mid life, Sally was dealing with her own healthchallenges when she was told she would neverhave children. However, at 40 years old sheproved the medical industry wrong and gavebirth to a beautiful healthy girl, only to beblindsided a few months later by the news thatshe had a very advanced form of cancer - - and,would not live past six months.
As Sally states, Of course, I was devastated!As I went inward, I found if you ask how do Ifeel at this moment, there is an abundance ofinternal guidance to tap into. Theres an innerknowingness if you allow it.
At this time, it took three years of work before I received the news that I was cancer free. It took doing all the things experts tell you to do,
but I also took my own intuitive route of how to live or die. I call it the internal guidance system -
its the next chapter in reinventing yourself.

but I also took my own intuitive route of how to live or die. I call it the internal guidance system -

Beating Cancer - Again!
Sally continued, After being cancer free forseveral years, I once again received the devas-tating news that another tumor had developednext to my Carotid Artery. This was 4 1/2 yearsago. The tumor was increasing in size everythree months, and if it did not stop, I wouldhave to have a very serious operation to re-move the tumor, which was growing on a majorartery.
At this time I was introduced to a product - ahigh potency powder with massive doses offruits and vegetables. With nothing to loose, Istarted using the product.
It was four months later when I had anotherultrasound. And, for the rst time, the tumordid not grow in size. It remained the same!! Mydoctor was amazed and said they would notperform surgery at this time. Instead, theywould monitor the growth and test every 3-6months. During this time, I stayed on the dietand inner soul work.
When I had the next ultrasound, the tumor de-creased in size! And then, every test after this,the tumor continued to decrease until now, 41/2 years later, I received the best news ever,that the test results depicted no signs of anytumor. It was completely gone. I could not be-lieve it and neither could my doctors. My en-docrinologist stated, "What ever you are doing- don't stop.

TheProcess
T h i n k i n gabout thep r o c e s sSally shared,I believe forme, I was giv-ing my bodywhat it neededwith a greenwhole food nutri-tion diet. I believethis was the main aspectof what healed me. I knowthat fruits and vegetables help alka-line your body and that when your body is inan alkaline state it's very dicult for cancer togrow. This is what I believed saved me in myparticular situation.
Now my mission is to share and help as manypeople as I can along their own amazing jour-ney to health and wellness.
How does one beat the long-term odds ofcancer returning? For Sally, she continues herwork through the compelling and demandingschedule of her transformational work both in-side and out. This is the now the foundationand inspiration she gives to over 15,000 fol-lowers who take her advice.
The NextChapter
Sally shared, Ithink todaywhenever weask whatnow? One ofthe things we
have to be will-ing to do is to ex-
pand beyond whatwe used to be and
create more possibili-ties for ourselves. When
people go through change, itis most common for people to stay
the same because failing can be more painfulthan continuing, even when someone stays ina situation that is not working.
A big change was deciding to tell othersabout the products I took to ultimately healmyself. The point is, I was scared to deathwhen I starting making the changes in my life,and then, stayed with it. When you commit togo forward with your life again, youll be takingsome risks, and until you are willing to fall othe cli with that oh-my-god feeling, you wontknow what you really want or your new direc-tion. you need to commit to being better thanyou were yesterday everyday.
