Hello Kitty!

February 22, 2014 by nycredhead2021

There are cat people, crazy cat ladies and Catwoman, I maybe all three. I love Hello Kitty. Not enough to get a Hello Kitty tattoo, even in a hidden place. (Ouch) But maybe enough to get a Hello Kitty manicure, done in a cute tasteful way and I might be amused by something Hello Kitty edible. I’ve always had a cat, from the time I was a small child. I’m a Leo, more precisely with eight planets in Leo. I […]

She Woman – that’s what I’m talkin’ about.

February 8, 2014 by nycredhead2021

A couple of days ago, my client and good friend was lying on my table getting micro-current lifted and toned and we were chatting. She told me of a new terrific man she had just met and how beautiful he thinks she is and tells her all the time. We moved onto her comedy improve shows and how well they are going and in general how she is feeling altogether in her element. As I moved on to the LED […]

5 ways to Anti-inflamatory balance

February 3, 2014 by nycredhead2021

Acidity, alkalinity – we can barely say it – let alone understand it!! So lemme break it down yo. Disease lives in an acid environment and simply put, modern/stressful life makes acid and I’m not talkin’ psychedelics. Alcohol, coffee, dairy, red meat, white flour, sugar – all create acid and STRESS IS THE WORST. An acid body makes inflammation, aches, pains, stiffness, constipation, acne, redness (Rosacea), headaches, sagging, facial aging, low energy etc. And when you reverse it, into a […]

East Coast – send me a sign.

February 1, 2014 by nycredhead2021

When I go home to NYC my main goal is to cover as much pavement as possible. I like to commune with the signage and window displays and outfits walking by. I want to examine the faces and smell the street. It takes me back in, into the fold, the real people culture of the natives. That takes me a good three or four days and then I can go to the museums… I take busses and subways of course, […]
