Let me make one thing clear:
women, if
you are experiencing hair loss, please
know that you are not alone!

Women’s hair can thin for a variety of
reasons, and yet the topic is still far
less openly discussed than male hair
loss. In many cases, though, the causes
are diagnosable and treatable, making
it particularly important that women
discuss hair loss with their doctors.
First, let’s consider some common
factors that can cause and contribute
to hair loss:

Low iron levels: Iron deficiency, with
or without anemia, can lead to hair
loss. Do not simply start taking an
iron supplement without having your
iron checked by a physician because too
much iron can also lead to health
problems.
Thyroid disorders: Both an overactive
and an underactive thyroid can lead to
hair loss.
Low estrogen levels: Many women
experience hair loss during and after
menopause, when estrogen levels begin
to drop. Other hormonal changes —
changes in oral contraceptive use, for
example — can also trigger hair loss.
Post-pregnancy hormonal changes:
Similarly, new moms may find that
they’re shedding a lot of hair in the
first one to six months after delivery,
when their estrogen levels return to
normal. Actually, what seems like
excessive hair loss is really hair’s
natural growth cycle regulating itself,
as high hormone levels tend to keep
women from losing normal amounts of
hair during pregnancy.
Telogen effluvium: This is the general
term for sudden, temporary hair loss as
a result of recent stress or surgery,
which typically occurs around two
months after the causative event or
illness. (It may also be used to
describe sudden hair loss as a result
of other factors on this list, such as
post-pregnancy hormonal changes.)
Medications: Many medications may lead
to hair loss. If this is a concern,
talk to your doctor about potential
alternatives
High levels of vitamin A or selenium:
There is rarely any reason to take more
of these nutrients than you’d find in a
good multivitamin.
Several recent studies of men have
found that smoking also seems to
increase hair loss. I don’t know of any
similar studies in women, but one thing
is clear: Smoking is harmful for a
multitude of reasons, whether or not
increased hair loss is among them!

The best plan of action for anyone
experiencing hair loss is to determine

Karma means “action” or any
action that
brings a reaction that binds us to the
material world. Although the idea of
karma is generally associated with
Eastern philosophy, many people in the
West are also coming to understand that
karma is a natural principle, like time
or gravity, and no less inescapable.
For
every action there is a reaction. If we
cause pain and suffering to other
living
beings, we must endure pain and
suffering in return, both individually
and collectively.

We reap what we saw, in this life and
the next, for nature has her own
justice. No one can escape the law of
karma, except those who understand how
it works.

To understand how karma can cause war,
for example, let’s take an illustration
from the Vedas. Sometimes a fire is
started in a bamboo forest when the
trees rub together. The real cause of
the fire is not the trees but the wind
that moves them. The trees are only the
instruments. In the same way two
nations
are not the real causes of the friction
that may exist between them, the real
cause is the karma generated by the
world’s supposedly innocent citizens.

According to the law of karma, the
neighborhood supermarket or hamburger
stand has more to do with the threat of
war than anything else does. We recoil
with horror at the prospects of nuclear
war while we permit equally horrifying
massacres every day inside the world’s
automated slaughterhouses.

The person who eats an animal may
say “I
haven’t killed anything” but when
buying
neatly packaged meat at the superstore
you are paying someone else to kill for
you, then both of you bring upon
yourselves the reactions of karma.

Can it be anything but hypocritical to
march for peace and then go to
McDonald’s for a hamburger or go home
to
grill a steak or have ‘Chicken tikka or
chicken biriyani’? This is the very
duplicity that George Bernard Shaw
condemned:

We are living graves of murdered beasts
Slaughtered to satisfy our appetites
We never pause to wonder at our feasts
If animals like men could possibly have
rights.
We pray on Sunday that we may have
light,
To guide our footsteps on the paths we
tread.
We are sick of war; we do not want to
fight,
And we gorge ourselves upon the dead.

Ahimsa allows the animal to live a
natural evolutionary progress. However
if it is killed it will need to return
to live out the rest of its life in
that
same species.

Those who understand the laws of karma
know that peace will not come from
marches and petitions, but rather from
a campaign to educate people about the
consequences of murdering innocent
animals not to mention unborn children.

God is the life giver and only he
decided when to take it back……

Breakfast at McDonald’s

This is a good story and is true, please read it all the way through until the
end! (After the story, there are some very interesting facts!):

I am a mother of three (ages 14, 12, 3) and have recently completed my college
degree.

The last class I had to take was Sociology.

The teacher was absolutely inspiring with the qualities that I wish every
human being had been graced with.

Her last project of the term was called, ‘Smile.’

The class was asked to go out and smile at three people and document their
reactions.

I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say hello anyway.
So, I thought this would be a piece of cake, literally.

Soon after we were assigned the project, my husband, youngest son, and I went
out to McDonald’s one crisp March morning.

It was just our way of sharing special playtime with our son.

We were standing in line, waiting to be served, when all of a sudden everyone
around us began to back away, and then even my husband did.

I did not move an inch… an overwhelming feeling of panic welled up inside of
me as I turned to see why they had moved.

As I turned around I smelled a horrible ‘dirty body’ smell, and there standing
behind me were two poor homeless men.

As I looked down at the short gentleman, close to me, he was ‘smiling.’

His beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God’s Light as he searched for
acceptance.

He said, ‘Good day’ as he counted the few coins he had been clutching.

The second man fumbled with his hands as he stood behind his friend. I
realized the second man was mentally challenged and the blue-eyed gentleman
was his salvation.

I held my tears as I stood there with them.

The young lady at the counter asked him what they wanted.

He said, ‘Coffee is all Miss’ because that was all they could afford. (If they
wanted to sit in the restaurant and warm up, they had to buy something. He
just wanted to be warm).

Then I really felt it – the compulsion was so great I almost reached out and
embraced the little man with the blue eyes. That is when I noticed all eyes in
the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action.

I smiled and

Let’s face it, life comes with many
ups and downs. Although it is
difficult to do in order to be
successful you need to not let
the “downs” get to you.

These situations are inevitable from
time to time, but if you let
them make you feel bad you are only
hindering yourself. Learn from
the rough patches and always maintain
a clear focus as to what you
want in life. This will keep you
inspired. It can help to learn
words of inspiration to tell yourself
in order to get through the
trials and tribulations of life.

Inspire Others

Just as you can inspire yourself,
imagine the power you can have in
helping others in offering any kind of
words of inspiration to cheer
up others when they are having a hard
time.

Inspire Yourself To Change

There no doubts those words of
inspiration can help you overcome
many types of bad feelings, such as

Pain may sometimes be the reason why
people change. Getting bad
grades make you realize that you need
to study. Debts remind you of
your inability to look for a source of
income. Being humiliated
gives you the `push’ to speak up and
fight for yourself to save your
face from the next embarrassment. It
may be a bitter experience, a
friend’s tragic story, a great movie,
or an inspiring book that will
help you to get up and get just the
right amount of motivation you
need in order to improve yourself.

With all the people trying to pull you
down and waiting for you to
fail, how can you stay motivated and
positive?

Try this A to Z of tips for motivation

A – Achieving your dreams. Avoid
negative people, things and places
because they will only drag you down.
Eleanor Roosevelt once
said, “The future belongs to those who
believe in the beauty of
their dreams.”

B – Believe in your self, and in what
you can do. Believe in your
possibilities and your dreams. Every
advancement of humankind has
taken place because someone believed
in themselves.

C – Consider all of the angles and
aspects of everything you
encounter, whether it is people or
situations. Motivation comes from
strength of purpose. Being able to see
both points of view will give
you more chance of being successful
and keeping those around you
motivated too.

D – Don’t give up and don’t give in.
Every successful person from J
K Rowling to Walt Disney to Sylvester
Stallone to Thomas Edison had
multiple failures before being
successful. Sometimes their failures
or rejections ran into the hundreds
before they achieved success.

E – Enjoy. Work as if you don’t need
money. Dance as if nobody’s
watching. Love as if you never cried.
Learn as if you’ll live
forever. Motivation takes place when
people are happy.

F – Family and Friends. Use your
family and friends to help you stay
motivated. The big football teams have
cheerleaders and fans to
encourage them. Your family and
friends can be your cheerleaders and
fans. Use them to keep you going when
you feel your motivation
drifting.

G – Give that little bit extra. Self
improvement happens everywhere
all the time, whether you are at home,
at work or at school. Anthony
Robbins tells us that the difference
in effort between excellent and
outstanding is miniscule, yet the
difference in rewards is massive.
Giving that little bit extra can put
you into the outstanding.

H – Hang on to your dreams. There may
be times when it looks bleak,
but hang on to your dreams. The night
is darkest just before the
dawn. It is at this moment that you
are closest to success and 95%
of people will give up. Push through
this moment and you’ll achieve
your dreams.

I – Ignore those who try to destroy
you. Don’t get involved in their
dramas or toxicity – just walk away.
Surround yourself with people
who will encourage and support you.
Remove those who want to pull
you down and watch you fail from your
life. You’ll find it much
easier to stay motivated.

J – Joy and gratitude. Perhaps two of
the fundamentals for
motivation and success is to be joyful
in what you do and grateful
for what you have.

K – Keep pushing forwards no matter
how hard life may seem. In the
toughest moments you can choose to
move forwards or to run away.
It’s your decision – one path brings
you closer to the success, the
other takes you away from it. Which do
you want to follow?

L – Learn to love your self. This
isn’t as easy as it sounds for
most people, but by loving yourself
you will be happier and more
motivated because you will believe you
deserve what you achieve.

M – Make things happen. Motivation and
success doesn’t come from
sitting in front of the television
drinking coke and eating pizza.
Take action and you’ll achieve your
dreams.

N – Never lie, cheat or steal. Always
play a fair game. At the end
of the day, if you live a dishonest
life, it will come back to you.
Living an honest, fair life allows you
to be proud of what you do.

O – Open your eyes. Everyone has a set
of blinkers that they wear
and see everything through them, i.e.
how they would like things to
be. Look at life with open eyes and
see things how they are, and see
them how you want them to be. Then
take action to make it happen.

P – Practice makes perfect. The more
you practice, the better you
become. A top sportsman doesn’t reach
their status through a single
practice or game. They practice harder
and longer than anyone else,
and as such, are rewarded more than
anyone else.

Q – Quitters never win. And winners
never quit. So, which do you
want to be?

R – Ready yourself. Always be ready to
take advantage of the
opportunities and situations presented
to you. Prepare in advance,
and ignore the voice telling you to
put it off until tomorrow.
Remember, it wasn’t raining when Noah
built the ark!

S – Stop procrastinating. You can put
it all off until tomorrow, but
one day there will be no more
tomorrows. Start procrastinating about
procrastinating and do tomorrows jobs
today.

T – Take control of your life.
Discipline and self control are
synonymous with motivation. So many
people believe their lives are
out of their control. Look at your
life in detail and you’ll
discover you have more areas under
your control than you think.

U – Understand others. If you know
very well how to talk, you should
also learn how to listen. You have two
ears and one mouth for a
reason. Understand others and strive
to be understood.

V – Visualise it. Your sub-conscious
knows no difference between
your imagination and reality, so if
you rehearse your success in
your mind, then your sub-conscious
will believe in it and make it
happen.

W – Want it more than anything. Every
successful person has had a
burning desire to achieve their goals.
The Wright brothers didn’t
invent the aeroplane because there was
nothing on the television.
They had a burning desire to succeed
and kept going, even in the
face of setbacks.

X – X Factor is what will make you
different from the others. When
you are motivated, you tend to put
on “extras” on your life like
extra time for family, extra help at
work, extra care for friends.
This X-Factor sets you aside from the
crowd and marks you out for
success.

Y – You are unique. No one in this
world looks, acts, thinks or
talks like you. Value your unique
gifts, whatever they are and use
them for your success.

Z – Zero in on your dreams and make it
happen!!!

One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay,
for his hungry stomach, decided he would ask for a meal at the next
house.

On the way through school, he found he had only one thin dime left
and he was very hungry.

However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the
door.Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water.

The woman thought he looked hungry, so brought him a large glass of
milk.

He drank it slowly, and then asked, ‘How much do I owe you?’ ‘You
don’t owe me anything,’ she replied. ‘Mother has taught us,never to
accept pay for a kindness.’

He said…’Then I thank you from my heart.’

Year’s later that young woman became critically ill.
The local doctors were baffled.They finally sent her to the big
city,where they called in specialists to study her rare disease.

Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation.
When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light
filled his eyes.

Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her
room.Dressed in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her.He
recognized her at once.

He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to
save her life,from that day he gave special attention to the case.

After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the
business office to pass the final bill to him for approval.

He looked at it, then wrote something on the edge and the bill was
sent to her room.

The woman feared opening it, for she was sure it would take the
rest of her life to pay for it all.

Finally she looked, and something caught her attention on the side
of the bill. She read these words…
‘Paid in full with one glass of milk.’ Signed, Dr.Howard Kelly.

Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed: Thank You,
God,that Your love has spread abroad through human hearts and
hands.’
