Diary of a Shopaholic: Reining in Your Habit

Enjoying a spot of shopping is a pretty normal thing to do. Retail therapy is a good way to relax for some, whether online or offline, and a fun choice to reward yourself. But there can come a time when your shopping habit gets out of hand. If you find it hard to resist a purchase and you're constantly spending, it could be time to admit that you're a shopaholic. The issue can range in severity, from being unable to resist a bargain to having your habit control your life. If it's time to tackle your passion for shopping, there are several things you should do to beat the habit.

Deal with the Financial Consequences

Shopping all the time can get you into financial trouble, especially if you have one or more credit cards. It's so easy to put something on one of your cards and tell yourself that you'll pay for it later. If you want to rein in your shopping problem, the first thing you should do is get rid of any cards. Next, you need to deal with any existing debt. You might find it's helpful to look at personal loans for debt consolidation if you have been using several credit cards. Confronting the reality of your debt can help you to face any problems you might have and admit that it's time to stop spending.

Set Yourself Some Rules

If you want to put a stop to your constant shopping, you need some rules to follow. Shopping isn't something you can never do, so you can't really cut yourself off cold turkey. Sometimes, you need new clothes and other items, and you definitely need to buy food regularly. You can set some rules about what you buy and how you buy it. For example, start carrying only cash with you when you go out, instead of your card. Having the money physically there makes it feel more real. You could also set a rule about waiting to make a purchase. Give it a couple of days, and you will have changed your mind if you don't really need it.

Clear Out Your Home

A shopping addiction can mean that your home quickly fills up with things you don't need. Your wardrobe might be overflowing with outfits you've never worn, and your cupboards full of home accessories that have never seen the light of day. Living more minimally will help you to curb your shopping, and you can begin by getting rid of existing things. Go through your home and decide what to sell or give to charity.

Get Support If You Need It

Sometimes, the issue of a shopping addiction can run deeper than you think. If you're struggling to stop spending or there are underlying problems that need to be addressed, you might need to seek out support. Some people can get that from family and friends, but others might want to find a support group or perhaps even see a therapist.

Controlling your shopping habit can improve your life greatly. You'll have more money to save and more control over your life.

Making the Switch to Digital Reading

Many people have been contemplating the switch to digital reading. For those of us that have extensive book collections, it can be hard trying to put that all to a stop. We’ll never see our book collection grow once we switch to digital, and our books are going to be stuck there gathering dust until we feel nostalgic enough to pull one off the shelf and give it a good read (after we dust it, of course). However, we live in a digital age now and the space premium we pay for having an extensive library of books is a large one. Not only does it take a lot of care to look after physical books, but it can also take up a considerable chunk of space that could be put to better use.

So to convince you to make the switch, here are some of the most compelling arguments for switching to digital reading.

Accessibility

One of the most enjoyable things about reading is the ability to go into a library, converse with people, look up the latest releases and sample a book before we head to a bookstore and invest in it. It could be a fun young-adult thriller or it could be a several-part epic that we’ve never heard of the. The beauty of reading is that there’s always new choices, and every store has its author's signature style. However, as fun as it is to surround yourself with books, there’s a much easier option: going online. You can still sample books and there’s still a huge collection (arguably more than any library or bookstore could hold) and you can even sort them by your own criteria. For instance, if you only want to look for a multi-part science fiction novel, then you can do that. The ability to search for exact and specific things is wonderful and goes a long way to helping you find your next favourite read.

Price

Books are expensive—let’s not beat around the bush. However, buying eBooks or digital copies is far cheaper, and you can even get free books if you’re willing to search around. This article titled Free Kindle Books | A Unique Guide to 10 Amazing Reads shows that there are some outstanding reads to be had no matter how much you pay. It goes to show that enjoyment and fun don’t have to be limited by the price you pay. However, there is the initial investment in an e-reader, but if you’re willing to shell out the modest price for something like a Kindle, then you’ll end up saving a tonne of money in the long run.

Choice

Let’s not forget that books aren’t the only thing on the agenda when you have an e-reader. There’s also comics, biographies, newspapers and even magazines. This opens up the ability to sample, purchase and read several different types of publications. There’s even the option to search for books in foreign languages with translations which could open up the door to fiction and nonfiction from all over the world.

Essential Nutritional Beauty Products

The best beauty product in your arsenal is clear, smooth skin. There are all sorts of cleansers, moisturizers, and facial products that promise to deep clean your pores, smooth out imperfections, and reduce redness so you can have the flawless skin you’ve always wanted. But there are other ways that you can improve the quality of the largest organ in your body. The right kind of food can give you great skin by ridding your body of toxins. Here are just a few foods that can leave your skin with a healthy glow.

Water

We all know the importance of staying hydrated, especially during hot weather, but your skin reaps the most benefits from you drinking at least eight glasses of water each day. Water is essential for maintaining the optimum skin moisture, and it delivers essential nutrients from food to the skin cells. Basically, your skin wouldn’t enjoy the full benefits from the rest of the food on this list if it weren’t for water. It also replenishes the skin tissue and increases its elasticity to delay the appearance of signs of ageing, like wrinkles and fine lines. Drinking at least 2 liters per day gives the skin a bright, noticeable change in less than a week.

Spicy food

Whether you prefer it mild, or you like to turn up the heat, spicy food does have some unexpected benefits for your body. It is a perfect remedy for clearing  cold, but once you learn about the effects of sweat, you will be going to the nearest Thai food restaurant for an extra large serving. In addition to helping the body keep cool, sweat opens up and unclogs your pores, which preps the skin for intense cleansing - it’s why some aesthetician use steam during facials. As long as you make sure you clean it as soon as possible, sweating will leave your skin glowing. If not, it will leave your skin prone to rashes and blocked pores.

Lentils

Protein is essential for anyone hoping to build muscle during workouts, but the protein and sugars present in lentils are key for healthy, wrinkle-free, clear skin. Lentils are incredibly rich in folate, an important nutrient for DNA synthesis and cell repair, as well as iron for strong nails. Lentils also curb your appetite, so you’re less likely to indulge in sugary, processed snacks that can cause breakouts in your skin.

Citrus fruits

Drinking a glass of fresh orange juice with your breakfast, or having a slice of lemon with your water will greatly benefit your skin. Studies have shown that foods high in vitamin C can aid in the promotion of bright and younger looking skin. To go the extra mile, you can squeeze lemon juice on your face once a week. The citric acid present in lemon helps keep the skin clear by removing dead cells, and its vitamin C content helps reduce dark spots by increasing the cell renewal process. Lemon also has bleaching properties that will help improve your overall skin complexion.

Top 4 Beauty Products You Need To Own Right Now

We’ve all got our own beauty routines that require us to get our hands on many different products. While some people may need different things for their particular routine, there are a few items everyone will benefit from having.

So, here’s my pick of the top four beauty products you need to own right now:

A Moisturizing Spray

With a moisturizing spray, you ensure your skin stays hydrated throughout the day. Why do you need this more than a regular moisturizing cream? Well, it’s just more convenient! You can get it out of your bag and spray your face at any time, in any place. You can’t really start applying cream wherever you are. Hydrating your skin is essential if you want to keep it healthy and avoid early signs of aging. So, arm yourself with a moisturizing spray, and you’ll be in a good place.

A Vitamin C Booster

For those that don’t know, vitamin C is a vital nutrient for our skin. It helps battle wrinkles, keeps our skin cells healthy, and ensures we have a nice clear complexion. As such, getting as much of it as possible is always a good idea. With a vitamin C booster, you can do just that. There are options from brands like Clinique that include a good pure source of the vitamin. All you need to do is add the booster to your daily face cream and viola! You’ve now got cream that's packed full of the goodness of vitamin C.

A Face Mask

Aside from making you look a little bit like an ogre, face masks also bring lots of beauty benefits to your skin. The idea with a face mask is that you put it on, and leave it to get to work. While it’s on your face, the mask will clean out your pores and leave your skin feeling smooth and fresh. There are loads of different brands out there, such as Innisfree, that sell masks made from volcanic rock clusters to help get even deeper cleaning. I do think this type of mask yields the better results, and you can buy genuine Innisfree online if you want. Other brands are also available if you can’t find them in your country.

A Lip Serum

If you want to get lovely plump lips, then you need to add a lip serum to your beauty arsenal. It works by helping your lips become plumper, healthier, and shinier. You can wear it under your lipstick to enhance the overall effect of the product you're wearing. Alternatively, you can simply apply it at any time to give your lips a boost. Keep using it and your days of having chapped lips will be in the past.

Get all four of these things in your bag, and you will upgrade your daily beauty routine. They’re all designed to help you in different ways and can make you feel more beautiful in your own skin. Of course, if you can’t afford everything, just pick one or two items you think will benefit you the most.

Fighting Back Against Age: Have You Got The Right Weapons In Your Arsenal?

There’s no escaping the fact that we are all getting older. However, we can at least try to escape the physical signs. To do this, though, you must go into battle with the right equipment.

 

Here are five of the biggest issues that could take their toll, along with some suggestions on how to overcome them. Win each of those individual battles, and the war will be yours too.

 

Skin Changes

 

As the body gets older, the skin will inevitably gain wrinkles. However, you can at least slow the process by giving yourself the necessary TLC through precautionary treatments. The market is packed with plenty of products aimed to boost the youthful glow. When combined with healthier sleep patterns and daily habits, it should make bring short and long-term rewards. And when your skin looks great, your whole body will gain a better image.

 

Hair Loss

 

Some health conditions are embarrassing rather than damaging. For a woman, hair loss can be one of the worst culprits. Wigs are still an option, but technology has evolved. Stem cell hair treatment is an effective hair restoration solution that works quickly. Anyone that has even shown slight signs of alopecia can appreciate the impact this can bring to their life. Those treatments can be used for the man in your life too, but females are far more likely to feel the effects. You no longer have to suffer. So don’t.

 

Broken Smile

 

The mouth is the focal point of all communication and is the first thing most people will notice about your appearance. Your teeth go through a lot of stress and can become stained, chipped, or misaligned. Invisible braces can remove the fear of being seen with braces during your adult years, making them far less intrusive. Alternatively, you could look at lip fillers and other oral-related treatments. Of course, this work should be followed by daily maintenance. Otherwise, the initial work will soon be undone.

Postural Problems

 

The human body hasn’t evolved as quickly as our lifestyles. This has subsequently resulted in a number of issues, and postural problems have become more frequent than ever. Sitting at a desk for eight hours per day isn’t natural, but there are devices that can help stop slouching. In turn, it should allow you to stand tall and proud. Attending to those problems now will reduce the likelihood of long-term maneuverability problems. Use this as an excuse to get into yoga too, and you will not regret it.

 

Knocked Confidence

 

Physical health shouldn’t be your only concern in life. It’s equally important that you take care of your emotional frame of mind. Self-confidence is very easily lost, but much harder to regain. Investing in your body will naturally boost the way you feel about yourself, even if it’s only due to the way others react. Meanwhile, chasing goals such as learning a language or finding a new job can work wonders. Either way, a happy you is a beautiful you. If that doesn’t inspire you to make the change, what will?

Surprising Shanghai Sights For Solo Vacationers

Traveling on your own can be so freeing. You don’t have to worry about whether the other person wants to see the things you want to see. It also means you are free to travel at times and dates to suit you. And what better time to take in a short vacation in Shanghai than when you are there for business or a convention!

The area of Pudong is across the river from the hustle and bustle of futuristic Shanghai. This is where a lot of businesses hold conferences and events in anything from marketing to personal growth. You might be visiting this district for a business meeting yourself. There are several Shanghai Pudong hotel choices you might be interested in. As you are situated really close to Shanghai, you can take this opportunity for a short vacation!

Shanghai, also known as Hu, is one of China’s most popular cities for a vacation. It’s on the estuary of Yangtze River, so you know that you’re close to the river if you fancy a night river cruise tour.  The Bund is a waterfront promenade that has become very popular with tourists. It looks magnificent with so many colonial buildings. There is plenty to do here, and there are several places to eat. Of course, the shopping isn’t bad either!

From this attractive position, you can look back at the Pudong district. It’s from this vantage point that you can really appreciate how futuristic the buildings and the skyline really looks. Did you know that the Shanghai Tower is over half a kilometer tall? You can also see the pink spheres of the TV tower from here.

For a more traditional view, head to the Yu gardens in central Shanghai. You can see a beautiful pavilion and well-tended gardens. The ponds are particularly delightful. Did you know there is a nature reserve nearby? Shanghai is such a different place to just a few decades ago. It is now one of the most exciting yet beautiful places. There is even a Disney Resort here!

Shanghai is a surprising place that retains plenty of its traditional charm. It is beautifully nestled in among some of the most futuristic and globally enchanting sights. While it can be fun to share these things with a friend or partner, it also means that you can enjoy everything as a solo traveler too. If you’re not comfortable dining alone, there are plenty of street vendors, or you can choose to take room service at your hotel.

Perhaps some of the most beautiful sights to see are the amazing temples in and around the city. Their iconic roof shapes still fascinate the tourists when they come to visit. Longhua Temple might be the most popular one. It’s no wonder the tourists like to come here. This building is architecturally stunning and is carefully maintained to look as fresh as the day it was built.

If you are visiting Shanghai for any reason, do take a few days to get to know this city a little better. And doing it on your own can be just as much fun!

Taking Your Pet On Holiday: What You Need To Know

(image: publicdomain)

When talking about a family vacation, there is no reason why anybody should miss out. Why leave your beloved pet at home when they could enjoy the holiday with you? Now, most pets would be a logistical nightmare to travel with. Your cat with it’s independent spirit is likely to go missing, and keeping the water in the goldfish tank on those bumpy roads would be an impossible task. So we generally mean your four-legged friend, the dog. They are more likely to pine for you while you are away, so rather than put them in kennels, it is possible to bring them along for the journey.

Of course, having an extra travelling companion will mean you can’t be spontaneous. However, with the right planning, you can ensure you all have a great time on vacation.

Check with the airline

When flying, check with the airline first, to make sure your dog is allowed on the flight. Dangerous breeds and very young puppies are normally forbidden, so you don’t want to turn up to the airport without doing a little bit of research first. You may also have to pay extra for your pooch, so that will need be budgeted into your travel costs. There is some helpful advice at

Pet Travel, which will help you with your travelling plans.

Safety first

When travelling by plane or car, you need a safety harness for your dog. Ventilation is very important when driving, especially in very hot weather. Ensure you leave a window partially open, particularly when leaving your dog in the car by itself for any length of time.

Be mindful of other holidaymakers as you need to keep others safe as well as your dog. Consider putting a muzzle on your dog when travelling in close quarters with people your pooch isn’t familiar with.

Pack for your pet

As you pack your holiday gear, your pet will also need a separate bag with essential items. You don’t want your dog getting thirsty, so a water bowl is a must. Food is obvious, but a few treats may be of great benefit when your dog gets restless on the journey. Remember that accidents do happen, so don’t forget those poop bags.

Finding the right accommodation

You don’t want to be left stranded with nowhere to stay, so make sure you find accommodation that is pet-friendly, such as Sleep Inn Airport Hotel. Knowing that they have the facilities for animals will alleviate some of your worries, and other guests will be prepared for the occasional barking.

Health care

You should get your pet vaccinated before going away, as well a general health check. However, find out where the nearest vet or pet hospital is when you are on holiday. Be sure to bring vaccination records with you, as well as any medication your animal needs. Hopefully, nothing will happen, but animals, as well as humans, are liable to get ill or have accidents. It is better to be prepared as you don’t want your pet to come to harm while you are away.
