Health

I’m not much of a gym-goer. I find the atmosphere in a gym quite oppressive and there is an element of competition as well, for if you aren’t truly as fit as some of the other people you see, its easy to get demoralized. And there is also the men factor. Some women don’t feel nice trying to exercise with men checking them out at every opportunity.

Enter Contours Express, a women gym. Contours Express is a fitness centre for women and operate on a women only basis. These days, it might just be safer to join such gyms.Continue Reading

When I started my site, my target readers were women because I’m a woman and I know that I would identify best with women from all over the world. And because I’m a woman, I know how important health is to a woman. For those with families, more often than not it is the woman of the house who keeps the household ticking away like clockwork, keeping the house clean and tidy and putting hot Campbell’s soup on the table for her kids. Just think of the times you or your mom fell ill or was away. Life just doesn’t seem the same does it?

Heart Disease is the #1 killer of men and women but it can be prevented. The American Heart Association has come out with a Go Red for Women movement to provide women with the knowledge and tools to take action to protect their health.

Campbells (yes the soup and food and beverage company) has teamed up with Toni Braxton the singer, to highlight the awareness of heart disease to the American public. Did you know that Toni Braxton was diagnosed with heart disease yet she is a survivor who lives a full life? I didn’t but now I do. To raise funds for the American Heart Association, designer Jean Perry has designed 3 dresses which Toni Braxton will wear to the Woman’s Day Red Dress Awards to kick off American Heart Month (February). You get to vote on which dress gets worn and for each vote received, Campbells will donate $1 to the fund. Just click on the image below to proceed.

So, have you adDress-ed your heart?
