Cindy's Party with a Purpose - Why I do this

Friends -
This is my 6th year to throw the holiday bash. It all started with simple desire to get my girlfriends together at least once during the holidays.

The first one was so much fun everyone asked me to throw it again. When I threw #2 I decided all of us fabulous females could do more than drink, eat and revel.

And you all rose to the challenge! We've been collecting piles of stuff for SafeHouse ever since.

I chose SafeHouse because of my own past. I was fortunate never to be physically abused but the mental abuse took it's own devastating toll. And I came through it with my loving and supportive family. I was VERY lucky.

These women in the shelter do not have that kind of support. So, bring your checkbooks and cash to buy lots of raffle tickets, and bring piles of stuff from the list!!

Much love-
Cindy

INTRODUCTION TO FLOATING
"Most importantly, the float tank is not a hypothetical laboratory phenomenon, but a viable, proven technology" Dr Henry Adams, NIMH, Washington

"Second best thing to being in Heaven" Richard Jones, Australian Senator

The Top 10 Benefits of Regular Floating:
Renew your energy for daily life in one short hour
Improve your health and sense of well-being
Relieve stress and anxiety
Overcome physical exhaustion
Reset your biological clock, overcome jetlag
Increase mental, physical and emotional resiliency
Increase creativity and problem-solving ability
Enhance athletic performance and shorten recovery time
Strengthen the immune system, alleviate pain & speed healing
Deepen meditation, heighten self-awareness and visualization to achieve your goals.

The Floatation Tank is a light-proof, sound-insulated capsule which contains a shallow 30 cm pool of 25% saturated Epsom Salts solution - five times denser and more buoyant than sea water. Lying back, you float effortlessly on the surface with all parts of your body firmly supported. Your muscles no longer have to fight against the constant downward push of gravity, the single greatest cause of wear and tear to bones, joints and body tissue. As muscle tension melts away, you find yourself floating weightless and free, like an astronaut in zero gravity conditions.

The pleasures and perks of the modern float tank are based on a revolutionary scientific approach to deep relaxation called Restricted Environmental Stimulation Technique or R.E.S.T. for short, first developed back in 1954 by researchers at the NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health) in Washington.

Testamonials:
1. NutriMinC
"I love the NutriMinC® RE9® skin care line. I'm a runner and my face takes a beating in the summer, but during the winter months it is the worst. I love to run outside, although my skin looks terrible after long runs. I've been using the NutriMinC® RE9® skin care line for two months and have seen results. Not only are my friends telling me how good I look, but people I don't know are surprised when I tell them my age. I can't believe that I waited so long to try this product. Now I don't have to give up running outside during the winter months. Thanks, Arbonne."
– JESSICA KING; Lake Orion, Mich.

2. Vanishing Act"
I love the new Figure 8 Vanish™ Cellulite System! Arbonne is so true to the integrity of its products. Once again, this is a product you can feel working. Also, there is just enough time to see the results before summer rolls around. I am so excited to be on this system. Thanks, Arbonne!”

“The Arbonne Intelligence Exfoliating Masque with Thermal Fusion is basically a chemical peel in a bottle, but it's all-natural. Your skin will feel like butter. It's simply amazing.”—Christina Chambers (Marty, One Life to Live)

Individualized services tailored to meet the needs of owners and their pets

Here is a picture of Bernie as a satisfied customer, visiting his favorite hangout in Northwest Denver – Mouthfuls. Oh boy good treats and fun!

Personalized pet services to assist owners in enhancing the quality of life for their pet. Including services such as pet sitting for vacations, daily, routine or one time dog walking, pet taxi (example to and from groomer) or any pet need tailored to meet the needs and budgets of individual owners and their pets.

I love all animals and in retirement have turned this love into a business that meets the needs of busy but loving pet owners. It’s hard to juggle work and life and always give your pet as much attention as you would like. So why not give your best friend some experiences with an “other friend”. Pet sitting becomes a whole new experience for pets with individualized care. They develop a loving relationship and have diversion and activity added to their routine. Keep your pets happy and enhance their quality of life, making your time with them even better!
