HEALTH AND BEAUTY TIPS --- SHORT HAIR

If you have long hair and have decided to get it cut short, do so slowly over time. It's better for your hair, and not quite as shocking to your friends and family!

HEALTH AND BEAUTY TIPS --- USING HOMEMADE MASKS

When trying out recipes for homemade masks and facials, be sure to find out what different ingredients do. Honey has been known to cause spots for some people. Check and see how different ingredients affect you before you start mixing up your own homemade remedies -- not everything works for everyone!

Health and Beauty Tip -- Choosing Scents

You may not know it, but your favorite scent is actually influenced by your body chemistry -- you're very likely to pick something that works for you if you go by instinct. Before you buy that bottle of perfume, though, wait a few minutes after you've sprayed some on from the tester. Scent can change given time.

TEMAZCAL

MANY PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A TEMAZCAL IS. IN MEXICO, THIS TRADITION AGED BACK TO THE TIME BEFORE THE SPANIARDS ARRIVED. IT WAS A RITUAL PERFORMED BY THE HIGH PRIESTS, THE WARRIORS, THE CHIEFS AND PREGNANT WOMEN. THESE WERE THE PEOPLE WHO COULD ENTER A TEMAZCAL AND ENJOY A VAPOUR BATH WITH NATURAL HERBS AND MUSIC. MEDITATION ALSO OCCURED DURING THIS PROCESS AND WHEN THE CELEBRANTS LEFT THE STRUCTURE WHICH WAS BUILT LIKE AN IGLOO OF SOME SORT, IT WAS TO A RE BORN LIFE. AS IF THEY HAD BEEN IN THE WOMB OF A WOMAN. THUS, THE MAYAS BELIEVED THAT THIS WAS SOMETHING VERY GOOD. TODAY WE ARE TOLD THERE ARE MANY HEALTH BENEFITS TO TAKING A TEMAZCAL.

SO WHERE CAN YOU TAKE ONE IF YOU ARE IN BELIZE? COME ON DOWN TO COROZAL AND ASK FOR PREHISPANIC COROZAL. OUR SPA HAS THE ONLY TEMAZCAL IN THE DISTRICT AND WE ARE RIGHT ON THE BAY JUST AROUND THE CORNER FROM THE MEMORIAL PARK OFF MIAMI BEACH ROAD. ITS AN EXPERIENCE YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO MISS.

WE WELCOME YOU!!

Health and Beauty Tip -- Stained Fingernails

If your fingers and nails are stained from nicotine or dark nail polish, use a toothbrush and whitening toothpaste to scrub the stains away.
