Unfurgivable

Posted by Dior Co on Friday, January 6, 2012, In : Announcements 
Unlike most women, I highly crave meat and protein-rich food than carbs. I'd gladly pass up on dessert to devour a lean piece of steak. I cannot give up eating meat, though I've tried doing so a couple of times in 2006 after seeing a video on animal rights by PETA. It has saddened me to realize I can never be a vegetarian. But even so, I still advocate animal rights, being a pet owner myself. So here's something to help support an advocacy on animal rights:

Stay Motivated to Be Fit

Posted by Dior Co on Tuesday, July 19, 2011, In : Tips 
For some reason, a couple of my friends are suddenly jumping into the fitness wagon. I recognize their excitement. The thought of starting a new workout regimen is too exhilarating until you begin your first few sessions and realize that the lean and flab-free body image you have in your head isn't enough motivation to make you want to continue. So here are some tips, based on my humble little experience, to help you stay motivated to power through your work-out 

Find the fun in fitness.

Raising the Barre

Posted by Dior Co on Monday, May 2, 2011, In : Reviews 
It’s been almost 6 months now since I was first invited to attend a Barre3 session. At that time, I was focusing on my yoga routines and didn’t really think of shifting to Barre3 but tried it anyhow. After an hour of self-inflicted pain, I shrugged it off my shoulders and continued focusing on yoga alone until last month, when I got another invite for another Barre3 session. To be honest, I really didn’t know if it’s wise to permit myself to another struggle, but I just went for it, ...

When Myra 400E publicly announced and launched it’s new endorser last March 18 at Thaipan restaurant, it is of no surprise that they chose someone talented, dedicated and beautiful both inside and out.

The Ohm in Yoga

Posted by Dior Co on Thursday, December 16, 2010, In : Reviews 
Never athletic, sporty or fit, I've gone through life neglecting the health and fitness aspect of it because I was to lazy to lift a finger. I attempted to improve my body a couple of times in the last few years. I tried a membership to the top gym in the metro in college, badminton after graduation, and swimming after I realized I don't have the patience to gather everybody everytime for a badminton session or inflict myself with pain at the gym. Swimming is the only one I stuck to but I ca...

Rejuvenate Thai-style

Posted by Dior Co on Monday, November 8, 2010, In : Reviews 
My apologies for the lack of posts for the past week as I've been out on a trip in Bangkok for both business and pleasure. In my next posts, I'll be sharing with you blog-worthy Thai beauty finds. For now, I'd like to share one of the things you shouldn't miss out on if you're planning to a book a ticket to Bangkok -- the thai massage. 

What is a Thai massage?
It is a type of massage that involves stretching and deep-tissue pressing. This form of bodywork is usually performed on the floor, wi...

Are You Sleep-deprived?

Posted by Dior Co on Thursday, October 14, 2010, In : News 
Our bodies give us plenty of signals when we're tired. But some of us, including I, are so used to being sleep deprived that we remain oblivious to how impaired we really are. Sleep debt isn’t something you can pay off in a weekend; it can take weeks of building up restorative sleep habits. Read on the five signs below and see if your lack of zzzs is hurting your health.



1. Simple decisions become hard to make

You: Being Beautiful

Posted by Dior Co on Friday, October 8, 2010, In : Reviews 
YOU: Being Beautiful: The Owner's Manual to Inner and Outer Beauty is the follow-up book to Roizen and Oz's current bestseller YOU: Staying Young. The book gives a holistic approach to beauty as it targets three dimensions of beauty: looking beautiful, feeling beautiful and being beautiful. I've got this for myself in 2008 but didn't really have the chance to open it until yesterday when I was looking for a book to start after finishing my last fiction.

As described by Amazon:

Cool Off Your Skin

Posted by Dior Co on Tuesday, September 21, 2010, In : News 
Sipping only hot or warm drinks might do more harm than you'd expect. I happen to know a couple of friends and relatives who avoid drinking cold drinks to avoid slowing down their metabolism. I even know someone who proclaims that she lost five pounds just by drinking hot drinks for a month! New studies suggest that one of the best ways to take care of your skin is to keep your body cool. Even though you might not be out in the sun as much, anything that raises your body temperature—be it s...

Prevent Dengue, Be Secured

Posted by Dior Co on Tuesday, August 31, 2010, In : Reviews 
One of the major health problems during rainy season is the incidence of dengue. The Department of Health (DOH) fears that there could be 80,000 dengue cases by the end of 2010, as the number of patients continues to go up. As of August 14 this year, 54,659 dengue cases have been recorded nationwide. From this figure, 2,966 cases were recorded in the first two weeks of August alone and forecasted to exceed July cases of 17,000.

Good thing there are insect repellants available in the market tod...
