BH Cosmetics Flirty Nail Set

Hi Dumplings,

          I was checking out the Leaping Bunny list of companies that don't test on animals. I discovered BH Cosmetics there and placed an order. You can check out the haul here! I am a nail polish junkie and I wanted to check out their formula. 15 mini's for 7 bucks and change wasn't a bad deal. I have to be honest I wasn't expecting much lol.

         Here's the skinny, They have 2 different sets to choose from. I got the Flirty set. First off the colors looked amazing! They were right up my alley. There was a good variety of colors and textures. The formula was a little this. It took an average of 2 to 3 coats to get an even coverage. TBH these polishes totally remind me of O.P.I. The colors, finishes, application, shine!!! I couldn't believe it. To get all of these minis for such a good price that perform so well, holy cow. Oh also they held up against chipping( I'm extremely tough on my nails) and they went 4 days without chipping. Buy it here!!

Dealing With Paranormal Activity

Hello Dumplings,

          It is one of my favorite times of year. Tonight on my radio show we are going to be talking about some spooky personal experiences and advice about how to handle yourself if you encounter the paranormal. Perhaps you believe, but even if you don't I hope you find this post entertaining:)

         Okay so when I say paranormal what I am speaking of is energy that is not attached to a living being( ghosts,demons,entities,spirits. . . ) I will be talking about my own personal experiences on tonight's show, but below I will list a few pointers to help you overcome your fears and take control of your life and or home.

        I wanted to address that I am not a medium and I do not speak with spirits. I choose to disconnect with any abilities that I might have. In my experiences it is a door once opened that is very difficult to close.

Don't open the door
 I know that it can be tempting to dabble with the idea of talking with the paranormal, especially this time of year. Most people open the door without even being aware of what they've done. Fooling around with friends trying to have a seance or play with a oija board. My advice is don't bother. If anyone in the group has a sensitivity to the paranormal and is un-aware, or if there is an overwhelming negative energy in the space you are at risk.

Don't trust what you can't see
  Opening the door to that world is like leaving the front door to your home wide open. Imagine all the random strangers that could enter your home with out your control.  It takes experts years to learn how to safe guard themselves from negative entities.  Beings with negative intent will try to manipulate you to gain your trust. They will pretend to be children,heroes,and even lost loved ones. letting your guard down gives them power, and that is what they desire. They thrive on negative energy like fear, anger,sadness, and anxiety. The stronger you feel these emotions the stronger they become.

Ignore, Ignore, Ignore
  Okay so your washing dishes and all of a sudden you get a creepy feeling, or see something weird. The best thing you could do is remain calm and just go about your business. Showing fear of curiosity will intensify the energy and strengthen the entity. Ignoring gives you power and strength.

Keep It Positive
  If you have activity in your home or office it is more important than ever to not give in to sadness,fear or anger. If you are having disputes with someone speak to them calmly. Don't leave things hanging, clear the air. Put on music that makes you happy. Be aware that the being might try to provoke things so learn to laugh it off. Also you can burn sage and bathe yourself in sea salt to remove negative energy. If you are religious use the power of prayer to help you and give you comfort. The trick is whatever you believe in will help you.

Okay so I tried that stuff and they are still here!!!
  Regroup with the others you live with, make sure everyone is following the above rules. If that is the case then you have two options you can bring in a expert(religious leader or medium). Do lots of research find someone that you can trust to help. Another option is for the least affected member of your group to take a stand. Speak firmly to the entity and ask it to leave. "You are not welcome here, please leave right now"). I suggested the person who was least affected to speak because they are the ones that the being has the least power over.

          Not all paranormal activity is bad, and sometimes it is just lingering energy that doesn't have a mind of it's own. If you have been happily living with paranormal activity then it's best to let things be. This post is more to serve as a warning and to help deal with an unpleasant situation.

          I hope you will be listening to tonight's show. I will be live tweeting throughout so follow us @psychicE_R if you would like to receive those tweets:)

Being Your Own Best Friend

Hello Dumplings,

      I have luckily been blessed with some wonderful best friends. I hope you have too. Friends can be your second family, and best support in times of need. Unfortunately not everyone has a crack team of besties they can count on. Usually these periods of time are temporary. In these times it is important to know that you can be your own best friend. We all have that inner instinct that guides us through our day. Sometimes we listen and sometimes we don't. If you develop a good and honest relationship with yourself you will feel more confident and self reliant. You will also notice your life moving in a better direction. I am going to give you a few tips to get you started:)

Get a diary or a journal
 This is where you can release your secrets,dreams,plans,ideas. . . . White in it every morning or evening when you are most peaceful. This is a place where you won't be judged so let loose. You never know what inspirational ideas you might discover.

Get an agenda
 This is to keep you on track. If you write it down you won't forget! Get an agenda that you can keep in your purse or bag. This is the first place where you become your best friend by remembering to take it with you and check it frequently lol.

Set goals and keep them
  These goals can be small at first. They should be reasonably attainable like organizing your purse or shredding old mail. You can gradually build up to more challenging goals. Making yourself stick to them is where the best friend part comes in. Achieving goals on a regular basis makes you feel accomplished and builds self esteem. Any movement forward is a step toward success, and is better than sitting still in sadness or chaos.

Be honest with yourself
  This sounds much more difficult than it is. We are all born with instincts and intuition.Whenever we feel torn about a decision big or small there is always that little voice that guides us. Most of the time we regret not listening to that little voice when things go wrong. You need to start honoring that intuition and trusting it to lead you through difficult decisions.

Don't beat yourself up
  We are often so much more harsh on ourselves than we need to be. That negativity builds up on a daily basis and eventually you think your the dumbest,fattest,ugliest. . . person on earth. It's important to acknowledge your mistakes, but there's a big difference between "I wish I would have done that differently" and "what else is knew? I always screw up!"

Know your limits
  It's important to be your own cheerleader and push yourself, but more importantly it's important to know your physical and emotional limits. Taking a break from hard work or defining your emotional boundaries with a friend or partner will keep you balanced and strong. Don't compete with others set goals that fit your abilities.

Do something nice for yourself.
  A deliberate kind act to yourself promotes self worth and is the bridge to accepting love from others. These kindnesses can be small daily things like getting your nails done,taking a bubble bath,or buying yourself flowers. The goal is to do something that feels good emotionally.

          We are usually all to eager to go out of our way for someone else but it is so important to be good to ourselves as well. A lot of my clients are baffled because they go out of their way for others,but don't get the same treatment back. We all teach others how to treat us because of the way treat ourselves. If you are experiencing\ this problem I hope these tips help.

Simple Self Esteem Builders

Hello My Dearest Dumplings,

          The daily struggle that most of us face. Sometimes it's easy and sometimes it's a heck of a lot more challenging. The truth is low self esteem is more than likely what's keeping you better relationships and job opportunities. Conquering the big bully inside us isn't as hard as you might think. I am going to lay out a few small ways that you can improve your self image every day. I have given these suggestions to many of my clients over the years and they have had positive results. These activities are designed to be done every day.

Write down 5 things you are grateful for. They don't have to be big, just things you are felling purely positive about.

Write down 5 things that you are good at. hey can be small and simple. It may be difficult for you to think of them at first, but they will come. Here are some examples to inspire you( good handwriting, posture,cook, good dog owner, organized. . .  you get the idea:)

Do something productive each day. Besides the daily things like going to work of feeding your kids. This is more of a personal goal to set and achieve for yourself. It's a physical manifestation of things moving in a positive direction in your life. Here are some ideas(organizing a drawer, dyeing your hair,painting your nails,learning a healthy new recipe,

Give something back. Sometimes it helps us feel better to be giving to others. You may not realize how valuable your skills might be to others. Donating time, money, and emotion for something you feel passionately about enriches your life on many levels. There is a delicate balance between giving and giving too much. It also may be hard to know where to start when you aren't used to giving or feeling passionately about anything.

These two sites are a great way to start. One click a day will feed people and animals. No cost or anything just click!

Help Animals  Feed Humans

If you want a more in depth guide to better self esteem I must recommend this book. It has helped me personally and I have also suggested it to many clients.
