To-do list


… recharge with gentle pore cleansing and exfoliation followed by a complete relaxing massage for your face and shoulders. Walk out with a healthy looking and revitalized skin.



.... As you continue your lifelong journey toward health and fitness, remember to keep putting yourself and your needs on your to-do list!
It's so easy to let the demands of family, housework, friends, and other commitments take precedence in your life. For example, time for working out may get replaced by the need to chauffeur the children to and from school, co-co, tuitions, mengaji quran . Or time for preparing healthy meals may get supplanted by malassss, huhu — leading to more last-minute trips to the drive-through.
While shortchanging ourself and our goals to meet the needs of others often seems like the right thing to do, it isn't a good long-term strategy. Eventually, without our own needs being met, you get depleted — and when you're empty, you can't fill up anyone else. Making yourself a priority isn't selfish — it's necessary to keep you from burning out and becoming ineffective.
One of the best ways to safeguard time for yourself is to learn to set limits. That might mean turning down other people's requests for your time. Saying no can be difficult at first — we all want to please the people we love- but it's a necessary skill. Rather than immediately saying yes, you could consider "let me think about or tengok la nanti."
Even in situations in which you don't feel you can say no, there may be room for compromise. You may not want to keep your kids from doing the activities they love, but that doesn't mean you have to be the one to drive them back and forth each day. CarPooling maybe???
AND SO …. Treat yourself to a SPA …
