Four Things to Do in Your Twenties

Your twenties: the years when you’re old enough to know better, but young enough to do it anyway. And there are certainly some thing out in the big wide world that you have to do, otherwise, you may just live to regret it.

Travel Alone

Enjoy the freedom of travel while you can, and enjoy the freedom of being alone while you can as well. Without anybody there to tell what you can, and cannot, do, you have the room and space to be able to grow into a version of yourself that you never knew existed, but will soon grown to love. Specifically, travel to places where nature and culture is rife, rather than just going on yet another lad’s holiday. Listen to the child that is still within you: did you love Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle when you were younger? Well why not travel to Neuschwanstein, a Germanic nineteenth-century castle that was the inspiration for it? Or if you loved swimming as a child, why not travel to an area that is filled with rivers and waterfalls like Cashiers, North Carolina. Could even check some of the homes for sale in the area, just incase you’re ready to settle down in your thirties.

Take a Risk

You only regret the risks you didn’t take. And this doesn’t have to mean take a risk by jumping out of a moving helicopter (although that is highly advisable), this means taking a risk with your dreams. Don’t listen to those people who constantly belittle your aspirations and tell you to ‘get with the real world’. Those people who are happy enough to turn up to work every day, complain about it the most, but never leave. They are the people who are happy to help build their boss’s dreams whilst letting their fall onto the wayside. Don’t let them turn you into one of them, and certainly don’t their words of discouragement stop you from chasing your dreams. Don’t give up on the day dream!

But Also Be Clever

For example, missing out on five identical nights on the same place in your home city in order to save money for travelling sounds like a good idea, right? Well it’s easier said than done, because when your friends are badgering you to come for ‘just one drink’, it’s hard to say no. But sometimes, you have to be both strong and clever enough to say no. Your future, travelling, self will thank you.

Be Selfish

Finally, being selfish, despite what your parents always told whilst you were growing up, isn’t always that bad. If you don’t want to waste time doing something that you don’t think will enrich your life, don’t do it. If someone is trying to get you to spend all that money you’ve got tucked away for your travelling adventures on one night out just so they can go out and have a good time, say no.

It’s your life, you have to live it.

Slimming Not Working? Find Out The Best Combo Of Weight Loss Solutions

If you have been trying to get a better body for a long time, it can be disheartening when you step on the scales to see nothing has changed. There are so many diets and slimming products out there, and it feels like you have tried them all. So what is going wrong?

There are several medical reasons why you are not the shape and size you want to be, so discard these first if they are not ringing true for you. The first is your genetic makeup. Our physical appearance is built into our genes. If your parents and grandparents share a similar shape to you, then you are not likely to change that much. That said, you can improve your muscle tone and physical fitness so keep reading! The second is an underlying condition causing problems that you would know about from other areas of your life. If you are constantly tired and cold, you may have a thyroid problem that could make it more difficult to slim down. If you have any medical conditions consult your GP before attempting to lose weight.

To bring your weight down to somewhere in the healthy range, you will find the most success by trying a combination of weight loss ideas. If you are not overweight or obese, it is much harder to lose weight, but you can slim down by improving muscle tone. If you increase muscle bulk, you will get heavier and bigger, so don’t panic if this appears to be happening. For a better chance at success than just trying one thing, try a fat burner or diet shake to get you started then move on to combining calorie counting, sleep and activity.

Fat burners: These supplements are designed to increase your metabolism. The best fat burners for women tend to include ingredients to help stabilize your hormones, as well as essential fats. Some people don’t like them because they don’t like feeling warmer, but generally they have been well received. Used in the very short term, they kick start your metabolism to help you see results quicker in the early stages.

Diet shakes: These are complete meals in liquid form containing all the nutrients we need. They can be hard to take, and some people say they feel peculiar on the stomach. These are for short term use, and some can act like a detox.

Calorie counting: Combined with fat checking, reading the labels on your food should become a lifelong habit. Don’t avoid the labels with red bands, but do restrict them as part of a healthy regime.

Sleep: Sleep helps the body heal and works to rid the body of all the rubbish we ate during the day. The closer you can get to 8 hours a night, the more refreshed and revitalized you will feel to tackle the next day and all its physical challenges.

Exercise and activity: Keep your body moving all day by walking to the shops, doing the dusting or ironing while you watch TV, taking an exercise class for muscle tone or a sport, and playing with the kids more. If you are constantly on the go, you will burn more calories. Exercise increases your stamina and fitness levels and improves your circulation.

Can Plastic Surgery Really Boost Your Self-Confidence?

How many times have you spun around in a frenzy in the dressing room of a clothes store? It doesn’t seem to matter what angle you look at it, none of the dresses of the rails suit you. It is very easy to despair and become very upset. At the very least, we tend to just grab the one that is prettiest on the hanger in the hope it will miraculously flatter us in some way.

When you have been through every high street clothes store and still not found a single dress that hangs right on you, it is easy to crumple up into tears. You may work hard in the gym to sculpt your body. You may stick to the strictest of diets. But still, nothing fits you right. You’re not the right shape for the clothes in the stores, and it doesn’t matter how hard you worked to change it. This can be seriously damaging to your self-confidence.

When looking at celebrity and model photos, it is hard to feel beautiful. Aside from all the airbrushing, their body shapes are so perfect it hardly seems real. The truth is a lot of them aren’t real. They have had cosmetic enhancement to give them that perfect hourglass shape that holds dresses up perfectly in the front. So why aren’t you having breast implants?

  1. Bad press: The newspapers have seen lots of stories about dodgy implants causing problems. When health scares are made public, the problems are quickly fixed. So long as your preferred surgeon is qualified and regulated, your implants should be fine.
  2. Price: You may ask your local clinic how much is breast implants and be pleasantly surprised by the answer. Implants are much cheaper today than they ever have been. This is thanks to changes in technology and popularity driving the costs down. It’s possible to get enhancements on credit, but if your chest is causing significant health problems or distress, the NHS may be able to help. Talk to your GP if you are concerned.
  3. Fear: Having a surgeon ‘man-handle’ our breasts can be incredibly uncomfortable psychologically. Undergoing surgery and a general anaesthetic is frightening for any reason and should not be undertaken lightly. The challenge of explaining our new, full chest can be frighteningly embarrassing. If you have always padded your bras to give the illusion of substance there, you are likely to suffer a little in this area. Generally speaking, if even padding can’t keep a dress in your size up in front, having surgery may be the only answer. More than 30,000 procedures are undertaken every year in the UK, making each surgery statistically safer.

It would be wonderful to be able to wear a dress that fits us well, without that bagginess at the front threatening to literally expose us. The cost of asking a dressmaker to adjust your entire wardrobe could be on par with breast enlargement surgery, but over your lifetime could be substantially more. As with all surgery, there can be complications and risks, so be certain to find out all the facts from your surgeon before undertaking your cosmetic enhancement. Cosmetic surgery can certainly give your confidence a boost when it enables you to wear every-day fashion with pride.

Who wouldn’t love a luxurious looking home? We all would! The crisp, clean feeling of a luxury home just can’t be beaten. Just about anybody can achieve this sort of expensive look in their home, but it will take some careful planning. Use these tips to guide you:

5622094800_957c3b9d7a_zAuthor

The Kitchen

When it comes to luxury kitchens, you’ll find that high quality, natural materials are nearly always used. This gives them a clean, crisp look. Materials such as leather, wood, and marble are very popular in the kitchen. Top of the range appliances are always found in there too. Although doing up the kitchen will cost you a pretty penny, it can add heaps on to the value of your home. It can also give you a kitchen worthy of thousands of Pins on Pinterest! If you can only afford to make one room look luxurious, make it your kitchen for the best results.

The Bathroom

The bathroom is the second most important room that people focus on. If you were to buy a luxury home in Hunstanton, you wouldn’t need to worry about the bathroom, as they are usually already perfect. However, most of us aren’t so lucky! The best thing to have in the bathroom is lots of space, but you can’t always create that with money. You can make sure you have the most modern hardware and a great theme to make it look it’s best though. Think of the way a spa looks when you consider how you’ll decorate your bathroom. They tend to use materials such as stone and marble.

The Living Room

In the living room, you can get away with using all kinds of textures. Soft textures look especially luxurious; for example, silk and faux fur. Use the sofa as a focal point by including plenty of cushions in different sizes, and add throws of your choice. You can even add a feature wall to add further interest to the room. Neutral colours always look great in the living room. The most expensive rooms usually use dark neutrals though, such as grey, cream, black, and perhaps navy.

The Bedroom

In your bedroom, make sure you have multiple sources of lighting to give an expensive feel. Have lamps and a dimmer switch so you can make it as bright or as dim as you like. The bed should be the focal point in a luxury bedroom, so dress it up with a lot of layers in different fabrics and add plenty of pillows. Choose an interesting headboard that will stand out from the wall behind it to further add to the effect. If your bedroom is small, create more space by using mirrored furniture. This will create light and the illusion of space.

Use these specific tips for each room and your whole house will be given a new lease of life. If you shop in charity shops and make sure you get to grips with DIY for some of the tips, you’ll make your home look expensive without spending too much money!

A Guide to Feeling Good About Yourself Again

Thank you for visiting Cori's Cozy Corner! Please make sure to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and subscribe to our E-mails!

It happens to us all at one time or another. Feelings of doubt creep in, and we start to believe that we aren’t up to scratch. Maybe you’ve just had a baby, put on a little weight, or gone through a breakup. Whatever is making you feel this way, there are ways you can overcome it. This guide is designed to do just that. Enjoy:

Stop With the Negative Thoughts

We all have those negative thoughts creep in from time to time, but you mustn’t let them get the better of you. You wouldn’t speak to your friends the way you speak to yourself in your head, so why are you treating yourself this way? Try to speak to yourself as if you are a friend that you really care about. You’ll soon feel better. Be your own best friend!

Take Time for Yourself

It’s important to take time to yourself, even if you have just had a baby. Make sure you do things alone every once in a while so you don’t lose sense of who you are. Read a book. Take a walk. Meditate. Clear your mind. Whatever it takes!

Dress Confidently

Dressing confidently in clothes that you like will help you to feel better about any situation. There’s a saying that states a girl can conquer the world with the right shoes, and this is almost certainly true. Dress for your shape, and don’t try to hide under baggy, shapeless garments. Whether you’re into fashion or not, it’s important to play up your best features and make and effort. Don’t forget to wear great underwear, like Le Beau Lingerie, too. Nobody else will know you’re wearing it, but it can still impact the way you feel.

Fake It

Even if you don’t feel happy, fake it! Your brain will soon start to believe you are happy and produce more endorphins. ‘Fake it till you make it’ – there’s another great saying for you!

Listen to Happy Music

Happy, upbeat music will always get you through a bad day. Whether you need the radio or an iPod, listen to happy music whenever you can. It really does have the ability to turn your mood around.

Do Things That Make You Laugh

Read funny books, watch funny TV programs, listen to funny podcasts. Those are just a few of the things you can do that are sure to help you crack a smile. The more you laugh in life, the better!

See Your Friends

Although you should be your own best friend, seeing your friends is still very important. Go for coffee and lunch dates, invite them round for a cup of tea, or go out on a night out with them. Do whatever it takes to feel like you’re not alone, even if it’s only for an hour.

Treat yourself with respect the same way you’d treat somebody you love. If you do that, and take the rest of this advice, you’ll feel amazing. Trust me!

The wedding invitation is the first glimpse into your wedding day. You want it to be the embodiment of what your big day is all about. With this in mind, choosing the right invitation can strike fear into the hearts of many betrothed couples. With such a vast choice available, it can be a complicated process.

Stop. Relax. Stop panicking. You can find the perfect invitation that leaves a lasting impression on all of your guests. What’s more, it can fit the tone and style of your wedding easily.

Theme

Choosing the theme of your invite, should be a reflection of what your day is all about. Are you having a vintage affair with tea and bunting? Are you going for a glamorous princess inspired theme? Whatever your theme is, your invites should be a reflection of this. Incorporate the flowers that you have chosen for your bouquet into your invitation. This is a sure fire way of ensuring that people are aware of what they should wear to your event. After all, if you are going for bohemian chic, your guests may feel out of place in a tailored suit. The theme of your invite should reflect the theme and colors of your big day.

Budget

Money matters, when it comes to organizing any aspect of the wedding day. You need to have the perfect theme in place. But, you also need to ensure that you are not blowing the budget with 3D cutouts and tissue lined invitations. Think about the amount of invites that you need. Cost up how much all of these will be overall. You also need to consider save the dates and thank you cards in a matching theme too. It may be best to go for a simpler, flat style invite if your budget does not allow for something fancier. But, invites on a budget don’t have to look dull. In fact, there are some great styles that you can choose from.

Design

There are many designs of wedding invite. Paper Themes have said that the most popular is the flat, postcard style invitation. You can opt for a folding, brochure style of invite. Pocket fold invitations are hugely popular too. Pocket fold style invites are great for couples who have a lot of information for their guests. Including menus, hotel details and so forth is made easier with this style. If you have a set menu and all your friends live in the local vicinity, opting for a classic invitation may be best. A two-fold invitation that’s tied together with a ribbon is nothing short of adorable.

Vendor

Choosing the perfect vendor can be tough. But, there are a plethora of online retailers. Seek out samples of what you like. These may be charged at a nominal fee. Get a feel for the vendor by ordering samples and checking out Google reviews.

When you’re looking for the perfect hotel, you’re looking for luxury. You want to relax and enjoy a comfortable bed, great facilities and hopefully a wonderful view. The bathroom isn’t always high on your list but don’t overlook it! The hotel bathroom can be a great place to relax. You can indulge in a warm bath, or get ready for a night out with luxury his-and-hers sinks.

We’ve rounded up some of the most stunning hotel bathrooms on the globe. Until now, your idea of luxury might have been a complementary bottle of shampoo. Well, prepare to be amazed. After the stress of travel, you’ll need a relaxing bathroom! Some of these rooms are included for their incredible views. Soaking in the bath while overlooking the New York skyline is a dream-come-true for many. Some of the bathrooms are included for their sheer luxury architecture and some are just a little bit weird. They’re all decadent, all indulgent, and – unfortunately – they all cost a fortune.

Maharani Suite, Taj Umaid Bhawan Palace (India)

If this bathroom makes you feel like a Queen, well that’s because it was designed for one. The luxury Indian finishes are so remarkable that the Queen herself stayed here. India is already the home of the most beautiful fabrics and rich decor. The Maharani Suite takes full advantage of this, offering an elegant and tasteful bathroom.

Penthouse Suite, Four Seasons Hotel George V (Paris)

This is probably the most expensive suite on the list. At £15,000 a night, it costs more than some people earn in a year. Is it worth it? Well, you’ll never see another bathroom quite like it. The infinity bath itself is as large as a small room. The attention to detail and luxury is unlike anything else, it feels like a grand old Parisian Palace. Oh, and there’s a statue at the end of your bath. Paris is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, but book this suite and you might not want to leave the hotel!

Jade Mountain Resort (St. Lucia)

Each of these stunning bathrooms comes complete with huge windows that overlook the Caribbean sea. Equipped with either a round jacuzzi tub or an infinity pool bath, you can soak in true style. The perfect green-blue sea stretches out to the rolling St. Lucia mountains. With all this right outside your window, it’ll be tough to drag yourself away from the bath! Each of the rooms have a lovely open feel with the warm Caribbean air floating into your bathroom.

The Kingston Treehouse, Lion Sands Game Reserve (South Africa)

Have you ever fancied sharing your bathroom with a lion? Well, now’s your chance. The Kingston Treehouse is an executive suite built away from the main hotel complex. It’s out in the wild where you’ll often see animals pacing back and forth, popping in to say hello. The treehouse is cased in large glass windows. You’ll have incredible views of the landscape and the animals themselves. If there’s a lion about, it might just be your scariest trip to the bathroom yet!

Penthouse, Trump Soho (New York)

The New York skyline is a true beauty. Visitors will spend days trying to find the best spot in the city to capture it. But the best view isn’t from the top of the Empire State Building, or from the Statue of Liberty. It’s from the bathroom of the Penthouse at Trump Soho. And if you book a room, it’s all yours. While tourists desperately search for the best photo opportunity, you can just lie in the bath and admire the perfect view.

The Fujiya Inn, Yamagata (Japan)

This one isn’t about decadence or incredible views. The Fujiya Inn is all about serenity and simplicity. It boasts a traditional Japanese decor of simple bamboo furnishings. It provides a simple room that offers complete tranquility. The smell, the environment and the quiet are all tailored to ensure that you are as relaxed as possible. If you’ve spent all day racing around the busy Japanese city, chances are, you need to wind down. Where better than Japan to indulge in complete meditation and achieve a serene calm?

Upper Pacific Suite, Post Ranch Inn (USA)

This one is all about the view. Situated at the top of 1,200 foot cliffs, your bathroom has panoramic views of the Californian coast. The room itself is luxurious and is finished on all sides with floor-to-ceiling glass. This means you get the best possible view. (Though try not to sneak a glance into your neighbour’s room!) If you suffer from vertigo, this may not be for you. The cliffs run straight down below you. It really is quite something and you’ll never take another bath like it.

Iconic City View Room, Shangri La Hotel, The Shard (London)

The Shard is Europe’s tallest building, and one of London’s newest skyscrapers. So when you book a room at the Shangri La, you know that you’re getting modern luxury and the best view in Europe. London’s skyline is iconic – with the Houses of Parliament, the London Eye and its modern architecture. It’s a beauty to behold. The bathroom itself is pure luxury. You’ll find every modern gadget here. The only thing missing is a space age bath!

Star Bath, Sanctuary Baines’ Camp (Botswana)

Is there anything more wonderful than a bath under the stars? That’s exactly what you get when you check in to Sanctuary Baines’ Camp in Botswana. Did you know that the stars look completely different from the Southern Hemisphere? After a night here, you will. You can stretch out in your tub, with a glass of wine, and admire the constellations you never knew existed. The warm African air and the sounds of the wildlife will all add to the atmosphere. The distant roar of a lion might just add to the thrill of the evening. Either way, you won’t forget this place, or this bathroom, in a hurry.

Bathrooms are where you find that extra little bit of luxury in a hotel. We all love a great hotel bed but don’t forget about the bath. After a long day of sightseeing or business meetings, the bathroom will make all the difference. You’ll pay a pretty penny for the bathrooms on this list, but it will be worth it.

It may only be October, but it is never too soon to start planning a Christmas party. Once the stores put their decorations up, it is time to start planning your festive events. Christmas parties can be a lot of hassle if you don’t plan in advance. That means that you could cause yourself unnecessary stress if you don’t start planning early. Whether you’re putting on a party for your nearest and dearest or planning a huge bash, you need some advice. Here are some amazing ideas for the ultimate Christmas party.

Hire a professional Santa

Few people incorporate Santa into their Christmas party, but that seems a little odd. Children love Santa and having him make a personal appearance at the party will make the bash amazing. You can hire a range of Santa impersonators online. Make sure that you meet the impersonator before the party. You want somebody who looks friendly and warm to greet the children and give them presents.

Get amazing caterers

Many people try and cater their parties themselves. Believe me, doing so will cause you endless trouble. You need to enjoy the party just like everybody else. That means that you need to have the time to enjoy the party. If you’re running around cooking, you won’t have a second to relax. There are loads of private chefs for hire NYC from which to choose. If you have caterers at your party, you have the bonus of them cleaning away all the plates as well.

Serve the perfect hot chocolate

One thing that everybody loves about the festive season is hot chocolate. You should make it your mission to serve the ultimate hot chocolate at your party. Get mini-marshmallows and some quality cocoa powder so that you can whip up some delicious drinks for desert.

Consider getting a band

If you are hiring a venue, you might also want to get a band for the big day. Whilst everybody enjoys your Christmas CD, they might like to hear something different this year. Look for a reasonable band to play at your party. You’re going to want people to dance at your party, and most Christmas songs are hard to dance to. Make sure you book the band far in advance. Christmas is the busiest time of year for entertainers, and so you need to get in fast.

Make sure everybody gets festive

When you are holding a party, you get to make the rules. You should insist that everybody at the party dresses in something festive. People don’t need to come dressed in Christmas sweaters, but they should make an effort to wear something a little festive. Tell people to wear Christmas badges or accessories. Getting people in a festive mood can be tough, but it will make the party more fun.

Plan traditional Christmas games

People tend to underrate traditional Christmas games. Make a list of some of your favorite games and play them at your party. You might want to play charades in groups or get the entire party involved. Children love these Christmas games, and so it will give them something to do while the adults are socializing.

Get your children involved

Don’t leave your children out when it comes to planning your party. Children love getting involved in party planning. You can have some real fun by making Christmas decorations with your children. Get some crate paper in green and red, and make some cool designs. You can make festive banners and posters will your little ones. If you enjoy baking, you might also want to consider making some Christmas cookies. You can let your children decorate them and serve them at your party.

Don’t Let Heartburn Make Your Life Hell

This post may contain affiliate links.
Thank you for visiting Cori's Cozy Corner! Please make sure to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and subscribe to our E-mails!

Heartburn might be a common problem, but this doesn’t make it any less distressing for sufferers. If you regularly experience this sharp, unpleasant sensation, it might be having a major impact on your quality of life.

The important thing is not to assume that heartburn is simply an unavoidable part of life. By being proactive, you can tackle the problem. At the very least, you can reduce the symptoms.

What is exactly is it?

Before you start thinking about combating heartburn, it’s a good idea to get to grips with what the health condition actually is. The technical term for heartburn is gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. Although this is a bit of a mouthful, the problem is essentially quite simple.

It’s caused by a failure of a muscle (called the oesophageal sphincter) that sits at the bottom of your gullet. This muscle should act like a valve, opening to allow food and drink in and then shutting to prevent leakage. If you suffer from heartburn, this value isn’t doing its job properly.  Rather than sealing the contents of your stomach in, it’s allowing acid to leak out.

Common symptoms include heartburn and acid reflux, which you might recognise as an unpleasant taste in your mouth. The condition can also cause difficulty and pain when swallowing.

Take action

2962762666_93a2027078Photo credit

The good news is, there are things you can do to reduce your pain and discomfort. For example, if you are overweight, try to slim down. This will help to lessen the pressure on your stomach. Giving up cigarettes can help too as smoking is known to irritate the digestive system.

Your diet and eating habits can also have an impact on this aspect of your health. Try to avoid eating large meals. Small, frequent meals are much better than three larger meals. Also, it’s helpful to have your last meal of the day at least three hours before you go to bed.

Limit the number of potentially irritating foods you consume too. For example, coffee, chocolate, tomatoes, spicy food and alcohol are all known to contribute to heartburn. You don’t have to cut these products out of your meals completely, but reducing your intake may be important.

It can also help to raise the head of your bed by around 20cm. If you do this, use wooden blocks and don’t simply add more pillows. This is because using additional pillows can place more pressure on your abdomen.

Seek medical help

There are many more home remedies for heartburn that you can find online. However, if you can’t tackle the problem yourself, it’s time to seek medical help. Your doctor may be able to prescribe medications. He or she will also be able to tell you if any of your existing medications could be contributing to the problem. Bear in mind that, depending on the cause of your heartburn, you might need surgery.

Taking action to address this medical complaint can help you to boost your quality of life, so it really is well worth making the effort.
