Friday Favourite: Aloe Heat Lotion AKA Migraine Melter & Stress Saviour!

I suffer with migraines, well jel aren't you?!

My migraines stem from my shoulders and neck and are brought on by stress and hormones ( blooming Oestrogen!). 

I've got absolute boulder shoulders that are constantly tight and knotty.  As I don't have a small fortune to spend on an On-call Massage Therapist, if such a person actually exists, I rely on the amazing Aloe Heat Lotion. 

It is a rich emollient lotion containing deep-heating agents, along wth the penetrating power of aloe vera, it will sooth away stresses and strains of daily life. 

I apply it to my shoulders and back of my neck just under my occipital bone, (yeah I know my biology shiz!) and it soothes and warms my muscles in a jiffy.  The menthol aroma is so soothing too, ideal for clearing blocked noses and sinuses.

You can also apply a small amount to your temples in nice circular motions to relieve any tension headaches.

The Heat Lotion is obviously amazing for after sports, a gym session, if you suffer from achy joints, bad backs, or if you are ever feeling under the weather and all achy :( . 

This stays in my gym bag and I apply a small amount to my joints and lower back before my Ashtanga yoga sessions, it helps to warm them up which really helps with my Asanas.

Friday Favourite - Aloe Vera Hand & Face Soap

Yes it's a Hand & Face Soap, Yes, that is a Gillete Venus Razor beside and YES I use these 2 to shave my legs and I get THE smoothest shave and with no irritation!

This one night when I was lucky enough to have the time and energy to make an effort with myself, I ran out of my usual shaving gel (typical!) and had nearly used all of the hubby's, (sssshhhh don't tell him) and this little beauty of a multi-use product was sitting on the side of my bath, so I thought I'd give it a whirl for shaving my legs. I was so surprised that I didn't get any razor burn or irritation afterwards, I usually get itchy red rash but not this time, no siree!  

I don't know why I was surprised as obviously the Aloe Vera inside the soap is a natural healer and soother  and this wash lathered up like a dream!. 

So if you didn't already use this as a hand soap, a face soap, bubble bath, make up cleanser, baby wash.....the list goes on///then give it a whirl as your shaving,  medium???.

My Clean 9 Journey ..before and after photos!

Well its Day 10, that means I've completed my C9 body cleanse programme. Yippee!

I feel so good, my hair is glossier, my skin is smoother and less breakouts, I'm less bloated, my cellulite has improved (still a long way to go with that though!) but best of all, I am less lethargic and I have a boost of self confidence. 

The self confidence doesn't just result from my weight or inch loss or the results in the before and after pictures, but I feel so proud of myself for completing it successfully. 

I have learnt so much and feel so motivated to continue with the healthy lifestyle.  It has helped to change my mind-set about food and I now see food as a source of nutrition and energy instead of a pleasure or comfort source. 

One thing I didn't do very well at was drinking enough water throughout the cleanse, I feel my results would have been even more amazing ( cellulite be gone! ) if id have improved on that. 

So below are my before and after photos, for I can't beleive I'm posting these into cyberspace for all to see, but hey ho!

I'm continuing to take my Aloe Gel, my supplements and my protein shakes.  

I'm also going to treat myself to a monthly Personal Training session to keep me on form with my exercise routine.
