Put a spring in your step before you leave the house and you’ll stay bright and alert all day long.

1.  Wake up naturally:-

Exposing yourself to bright light for 30 minutes as you wake up can help reset your body clock, making you alert first thing. Keep your curtains open or buy a natural alarm clock with an attached lamp that slowly brightens. Your body clock responds to gradual light exposure by accelerating the waking-up process, so you’ve more or less woken before your eyes even open.

2.    Start with a stretch:-

Stretch for 2-3 minutes to loosen muscles and get blood flowing. Begin with a cat stretch- on all fours, arch your back, then relax. Repeat 12-15 minutes. Next, stand up, stretch your arms in the air and rotate in opposite directions eight to ten times.

3.    Drink a glass of warm water:-

Fluids are vital for energy, and warm water will help trigger peristalsis-contractions that move food along your digestive tract-telling your body it’s time to start the day.

4.    Take time out:-

Set aside five to ten minutes to do something you like, such as chatting with your partner, reading the newspaper or listening to a track from your favourite album. It ensures you start your day in a positive frame of mind.

5.    Have a power breakfast:-

A good breakfast gives you energy to face the day. Low-sugar cereals are ideal as they contain carbohydrates to fuel your muscles and brain. They’re also fortified with B vitamins, which aid the energy-producing process, and iron, which carries oxygen from your lungs to your muscles.

6.    Do a ten-minute workout:-

Morning activity tells your brain it’s time to kick into gear, helping to rest your  internal clock. It also gets your blood flowing and carries oxygen to your tissues. Doctors suggest running up and down the stairs five times, followed by a few star jumps or try jogging on the spot or dancing.

7.    Go hot and cold:-

Spend two minutes under a warm shower to invigorate yourself. Then switch.between warm and cool water – but avoid wetting your head during these changes as it could make you feel dizzy. This stimulates your circulation and encourages blood to penetrate deeper into your tissues, carrying oxygen and glucose with it.

8.    Breathe deeply:-

A burst of oxygen gives your brain and muscles a boost. Breathing through alternate nostrils to energize and strengthen your body is suggested. { generally called as ‘Pranayam’}:-

•    Close your right nostril with one finger and breathe in through the left until your chest is fully expanded.
•    Close both nostrils, hold your breath and count to 10.
•    Release the right nostril and breathe out slowly.
•    Start again, but breathe in with the right nostril. Repeat 10 times, alternating nostrils.

9.    Enjoy your morning cuppa:-

Don’t feel guilty about your morning caffeine fix. People who gave it up were less alert than those who drank their cup. A study found that just a 60mg dose of caffeine – the same as a cup of tea revived them again. Dunking biscuits won’t help though.

Secrets to splendid kissing….

•    Keep your breath smelling fresh always with throat pastilles or breath sprays.
•    Angle your faces a little, so neither ends up with smashed up noses.
•    If you’re wearing a nose ring or glasses (always take them off) – they get in the way.
•    Don’t eat onions or anything with loads of garlic before a make-out session.
•    Let the sparks fly. Check out the chemistry between you, when your attraction is mutual. Invade his space with a tantalizing kiss-me-tell-he-gram.
•    Be a little bolder, and get a little erotic. Keep it in mind, the idea is to tease, not to do a porn act.
•    A bit of synchronization is necessary. If you want to have a make out, mutually satisfying, you have to give in at times-to each other’s tastes.
•    Being orally outstandable is your ticket to being unforgettable.
•    Becoming a master in the art:-   Start by kissing your lover’s face all over. Begin with dry, baby pecks on the eyebrows, cheeks an chin. Trace the outline of your lover’s lips with the tip of your tongue. When you get into your lover’s mouth, don’t dive in. instead slowly exert a little more pressure. Tice by pulling back and sucking gently on the bottom lip. Finally go in for a kiss, this time with a lot of excitement. And don’t forget to employ your hands in caressing your lover’s hair, face, thigs and butt.
•    Don’t stop at the lips. Go ahead explore the whole body, experimenting with pressure, wetness and tongue techniques.

Don’t be surprised if, in response to your kiss frenzy, your lover grabs you and takes you on a sexciting joyride.

1.    KNOW YOURSELF, THEN GET DRESSED

It is rare when a woman really understands what looks best on her, and what does not. Rare still, is the woman who keeps pace with the changes in her circumstances, without morphing into an overdone clotheshorse. Rule number one: look in the mirror. Think. Repeat as necessary.

2.    MAKE FIT THE FOCUS, NOT QUALITY

No matter what the glossies tell you, the right cut reigns supreme. Always. So, ask around for a good tailor. If his name gets mentioned twice in your party circuit, run to this man!

3.    A CHEAP DRESS FITS NOBODY

Ok, so quality matters too, because cheap won’t last you long. Get the best dress you can afford, even if you can’t quite afford it. You’ll always reach for the same two or three numbers that draw wolf whistles every time you sashay in it.

4.    GROOM, GROOM, GROOM !

Chip, file, wax, buff. Take a second look, buff again. A woman must, mean MUST always have perfectly turned neat hands and feet. Chipped nails, peeling nail polish and dirty feet are hugely, grossly, and unforgivably ugh!
5.    COMFORT FIRST

Ok, so you paid a bomb for a YSL bustier but at the end of the day, you want to look and feel comfortable, right? Pants that you can’t breathe in and shoes you can’t walk in, ain’t doing your image any favours.

6.    ONE PAIR OF TOP QUALITY SHOES

A good classic leather shoe, rotated throughout the year, should last for five years or more. To break them in blister free: Wear them for brief, gradually increasing periods, removing them as soon as they begin to bother you.

7. CHECK WAR POINT

Red may be hot, but perhaps not on your cheeks! Technique is in so learn how to enhance your features with the right make up. Tarts died with the carnival.

8.TWO RINGS, ONE WRISTWATCH

Okay you can add tiny chains around your throat, a cute thin bracelet on your wrist, a generous splash of Chanel 5 (don’t forget dap down the cleavage) to heighten a sense of mysterious drama around your aura.

9.    WEAR CONFIDENCE WITH GRACE

Think Grace Kelly, Jackie Kennedy, Audrey Hepburn. The world loved these women for their immense sense of style, supreme grace and a quiet intelligence that made them icons of feminity. Cultivate your own style statement. And be consistent with what is you.
