Touching Zero

In my quest to improve my health and well being I've had some success and learned quite a bit as well. The journey has taken me down some unusual avenues and I feel good.
I am really looking forward to getting out again later this month.
The zapping of the hair on my chest and stomach is going resonably well. I am not sure about my face and neck.
I've had real problems with smoking. I've quit and started again a few times, but in saying that I've been stopped for about 3 weeks with no slip back. This post now gets a bit crude. I read a book part of which the author talks about living healthier. He got on to smoking and talked about what it does to your body and how you smell and taste. Basically he recomended that you go down on a smoker and then on a non smoker and you will taste the difference. I've never seen oral sex used as an example to give up smoking. I haven't been intimate with anyone in years, but that example made think about the crap I've been burning and sucking in.
Another thing I've found very difficult is to sit still, achieve a good posture, then empty my mind and relax. This is in my practise of Yoga and I can well understand that just about everyone is in some sort of pain or discomfort most of the time and that is why it is hard to be still in body and mind for any length of time. I look to try and touch zero. I try and the pay off is I feel more relaxed. People will do what they do as in the last post and I will just get on with this life.

Love and Light

History

I've always been interested in history. Today I saw another episode of Love/Lust. This time it was about make up. Part of the programme gave was about Max Factor. I always thought it was just a brand name, but as the programme said he was an actually person.
The link below tells you a bit more and I think is well worth a read.

Heels

Watch a programme called Love/Lust which was about the history of heels. Well worth a watch if you can. Strange how a fashion icon for women was initially a must have for male nobility in France.
Some of the shoes featured in the programme made me feel terrible.
With my balance I've got no chance. Getting botox in the soles of your feet, I thought was a bit extreme.
