THE YEAR OF CHANGE
It’s the second day of 2015 and what can I say?
Happy New Year to all you beautiful people! 2014 was a wonderful year filled with change, experimentation, new friendships, learning and more. 2014 was definitely the biggest year of change in my life thus far. I graduated high school, my parents sold and moved out of my lifelong childhood home, I started my freshman year of college, moved to Santa Barbara and got straight A’s for my first quarter, I filmed “Spare Parts” in New Mexico, finished writing and producing my “Gravity” EP, created a Kickstarter project to successfully fund my “Gravity” music video, went on a big family vacation for the first time in years….just a few things on the list. 2014 was a wild adventure where most of the steps I took involved chance and learning along the way. The best thing that 2014 taught me was that change is okay and maybe even great for the soul! It challenges you to let go of a comfortable routine, step out of your comfort zone and forces you to reinvent your strategies, reinstate your confidence and allows you to be okay with possibly failing. There was no way for me to know how 2014 would end up, all I could do was truly live through every moment and find something new to excite me everyday. Change is inevitable as we all know and I was scared to let go of my childhood home, my close friends from high school, my usual daily routine, the safety net of a high school campus and everything I was used to! Living in a new place whilst at college, coming home to a different house and neighborhood than I had come home to for the past 18 years, changing up my daily routine, dipping my toes into new areas and putting 100 percent of myself in whatever it was I was doing, helped me realize what life is all about. It will always be scary to change up your so called “normal” lifestyle and try something new, but it truly is a magical thing. I have learned so much this year and accomplished some goals I had been passionately trying to conquer and I cannot wait for what 2015 has in store. More change, more learning, more experimenting and finding out what sparks my vitality as a human being. Not that I am the voice of reason, but don’t be afraid to allow for change to occur. It is a natural part of living that can enhance your life and show you what it means to be alive! I mean come on, I even tried coconut water and drank an entire bottle on the first day of the new year–crazy stuff is happening! HA
But seriously, allow yourself to explore and you will truly be experiencing life!
Love you guys! My movie “Spare Parts” comes to theaters in 14 days!!! JANUARY 16th CHECK IT OUT, it’s a wonderful true story that reaches a large audience! 🙂
MUCH LOVE and happiness for the new year,

How you can transform your skin, wardrobe, hair and wellness in just 72 hours
All of us look to the New Year as a time to make changes in many aspects of our lives. We’re giving you a twist on traditional New Year’s Resolutions. We call this New in 72 – ways you can transform your skin, wardrobe, hair and wellness in just 72 hours. It’s a beautiful and exciting way to kick off your 2015!
Skin
Skin care expert and Founder, President/CEO of Vertere Skin Care, Bethany Hilt, offers the following tips to see a visible difference in your skin within 72 hours:
Drink coconut water daily – Coconut water is not just a great hydrator due to its electrolyte content, but it also contains cytokines and lauric acid which are used in the process of cell growth and their regulation. Coconut water has significant anti-aging, anti-carcinogenic and anti-thrombotic properties which helps to minimize skin aging, balance PH levels and keep connective tissue hydrated.
Add a facial loofah to your cleansing routine – Regardless of the cleansing modality you’re currently using, whether it’s your hands or a Clarisonic, use a facial loofah gently once a day. This boost of manual exfoliation can quickly eliminate dead skin cells and polish your skin to perfection.
Vertere’s Dramatic Transformation Cream SPF 15 – To build on the tips above and see a visible difference in your skin within 72 hours, use Vertere Skin Care’s Dramatic Transformation Cream SPF 15 daily. A consumer test panel, beauty editors, bloggers and testimonials like this consistently report seeing a visible difference in their skin within 72 hours.
Wardrobe
Celebrity wardrobe stylist Newheart Ohanian, who recently styled singer Estelle as well as spreads for Interview Germany, Vogue Taiwan and Elle Mexico, offers these pro principles for refreshing your wardrobe within 72 hours:
Create ‘uniforms’ in your closet
Organize your closet according to the staples of your ‘uniforms’
Make these items the staples of your ‘uniforms’ to create go-to look:
A little black dres
A crisp white shirt
Black blazer(s)
Cashmere sweaters
Tux trousers
Jeans
Turtlenecks
Pencil skirts
Refresh your wardrobe with new key items and accessories such as a cashmere camel coat, ankle booties, a good military boot and stackable bracelets.
Hair
Celebrity hairstylist, Kozmo Fahringer, who has perfected the tresses of hundreds of models as well as celebrities such as Brooke Shields and Isabella Rossellini, relies on one go-to product to create a blowout that lasts 72 hours – Phytovolume Actif. Just spray it into damp hair, blow dry and style. Your style will last for 72 hours without being crunchy. Use dry shampoo on day three if necessary.
Wellness
Marcia Camino, yoga expert and founder of Pink Lotus Yoga Studio, recommends three types of meditation that are lesser-known to create improved emotional and spiritual health within 72 hours. These practices have shown to have a positive affect even after just one session, so practice one, two, or all three for three days straight and note the profound shift in your psyche:
Yoga Nidra (Yoga Sleep) – Yoga Nidra helps your mind and body relax deeply because your subconscious comes to the forefront and your analytical, judgmental mind falls away.
Yin Yoga – Here, we investigate postures held for several minutes each that not only open the body for greater flexibility but also clears the mind by training the brain to ‘stay put’; necessary in our stressful world.
Freeform movement – At Pink Lotus Yoga Studio, we sometimes get out of our yoga minds and just shake it! We turn on danceable music for several minutes and ask students to explore creating movement from the heart rather than the head and to enjoy themselves while moving. Moving/Dancing is one of the best meditations in motion around; it can bring on “ananda” (happiness).
Here’s to you making visible improvements to these aspects of your life in just 72 hours to kick off 2015 in a powerful way!
