For many of us who’ve given up something we love for Lent, our end goal is not only to feel empowered that we’ve achieved something remarkable, but also to look great and feel physically ready to face Spring (and get ready for swimsuit season!)While Lent can be tough, if you hope to emerge at the end of Lent butterfly-from-wilting-coccoon-like as a happier, healthier and more beautiful creature, La Spa is here to help. We’ve some tips below on ways to get through Lent and a range of treatments that can help you get in great shape come Spring. (Sorry, willpower not provided).Tip OneAll the Small Things. As with any health and beauty goal, start with small, achievable steps. If increased fitness is your aim, start with a daily brisk walk, not an attempted marathon. With each week increase your physical threshold so that by the end of your 40 days you’ll probably be ready for that marathon.Tip TwoThe Old Switcheroo.

Giving up yummy treats for a whole 40 days? Good luck with that! Why not try replacing those cravings with something equally yummy but not as calorific? Swap sweets for protein and fibre rich snacks like unsalted nuts or vegetable sticks with spicy dips, olives or other luxury treats.Tip ThreeThe Carrot not the Stick. This is all about reward instead of punishment. If you feel your willpower slipping, instead of feeling guilty about delving into that bottle of wine or big bowl of icecream (hey, nobody’s perfect!), reward yourself when you do resist temptation by treating yourself to non-guilty pleasures like an extra long lie-in on Sunday, a night out at the cinema, or a spot of retail therapy.

It is a common scene at high flying parties to raise a toast for well being of the host or for any other special reason. It is mandatory to sip from the glass before it is placed down. French people maintain eye contact after raising a toast and while sipping from the glass. Different countries have different traditions for consuming alcohol. In Indian culture, initially consuming alcohol was considered as devilish act. As the years passed, people are now using the liquor for cooking purpose as well. Nowadays even women consume alcohol. But due to their domestic responsibilities, as they are mainly expected to look after the kids, they are held back from getting addicted to alcohol. But their role as a home maker and professional can be very much stressful and demand more than what they could actually offer to life. Hence they are more vulnerable to addictions. There are times when they feel stressed out or over-worked. Also there are times when they feel defeated, lost and helpless.

The only escape comes to rescue in a form of a friend. Sometimes it happens that they do not get required support of friends as well. Then like any other human being they turn to drugs or alcohol or any other addiction. This illusionary world takes them away from the usual pains and grief. But the effect lasts, only till the spell of the drug lasts. Once it subsides, true world shows up again. At this, they again surrender to the magical yet threatening world of addiction.There are alcoholic rehab which offer sensitive care to women. Alcohol detox for women is carried out at these rehabs with great care combined with tender emotional support. Various activities, such as yoga, sports and outdoor activities are conducted for the self esteem boosting. Other than this various therapeutical activities such as Hypnotherapy Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Resolution, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy etc. too are conducted.
