Beauty Beat: Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and while you are busy picking up all of the cute pink appliances and lip glosses on the market this month, don’t forget to make an appointment for a mammogram, if you are of that age. Regardless of your age, you need a regular schedule of breast self exams if you do not currently have one. I do it every month on the date of my birthday, in my case the 22nd, because it is easy for me to remember. Looking your best is important, no doubt, but it pales in comparison to taking care of yourself from the inside out. There is an unmistakable natural beauty in a person who is healthy, a radiance that cannot be purchased. Don’t you want to be a natural beauty? I know I do.

**I hope you will consider joining me in making a donation this month to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, or another one of the many charities who are working towards awareness and a cure for breast cancer.
Oh thanks for that tip Christina. I often forget but making it a habit to do it every month on the date of my birthday makes it a lot easier to remember and I could not agree with you more when you say that looking your best is important but it pales in comparison to taking care of yourself.
