FABRICS TO DRESS YOUR HOME

Create a mood of your choice to compliment your home this Summer!Whether you are looking for a completely new look to a room, or updating an existing one, there has never been so much choice on the market today. Not only does your choice create a unique mood to your home, it also builds comfort and homeliness...and the good news is, it doesn’t have to cost the

earth.

TOP TIP!A low cost method of transforming a room is by changing tired old curtains with up-to-date ‘Roman Blinds’, (as shown in the photo - top left). Using the minimum amount of fabric, these timeless, and contemporary favourites are a cost effective way of breathing new life and energy. Choose a design to compliment the rest of your room, sofa and flooring coverings etc, then team in some cushions and a new rug for good measure!

Leamington & Warwick

Hi there all,

The last two weeks have been an exhausting rollercoaster of emotional highs (and a few disappointing lows) with our tremendous Olympic Games...and didn’t we get it absolutely spot-on?! After the opening ceremony, I felt that the athletics had a lot to live up to, but boy, did they deliver! The closing ceremony, ‘A Symphony of Music’, showcasing 4000 or so performers, Britain’s well known and equally respected music industry, displayed yet another jaw-dropping spectacle; a joy to behold which left me feeling upbeat and ready to tackle the world. Great Britain - you ‘did us proud!’

CBT is a form of talking therapy. It focuses on how you think about things going on in your life and how these impact on the

way you behave and deal with emotional problems.

Eating Disorders (Anorexia and Bulimia)‘Everyone I know secretly thinks I am fat’ is a common belief many sufferers have. I will encourage you to adopt healthier,

more realistic ways of thinking that should lead to more positive behaviour.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME)The 3 stages of treatment include, helping you to accept your

diagnosis, challenging any thoughts that could prevent your

symptoms improving, and trying to increase your sense of

control over your symptoms.

Will CBT Counselling work?Research indicates that CBT Counselling is currently the most

effective talking therapy available and as such is recommended by the government body NICE and the NHS for a range of problems.

What is COGNITIVE BEHAVIOUR THERAPY?

SUMMER ACUPUNCTURE...Ally Burling has obtained a first class BA (Hons) and is a Licentiate in Traditional Acupuncture. She is also a Registered General Nurse, Health Visitor and has completed a Certificate in Obstetrics.

The warmth of summer can feel great, especially after a long winter and a particularly wet spring! Some people, though, feel worse in the heat, and find that hot weather aggravates certain health conditions.

One central aspect of Chinese medical diagnosis is the differentiation between illnesses caused by cold in the body, and those caused by heat. Many people feel much, much better in the summer; everything from joint pain

to depression to menstrual cramps eases in the warm weather. People with internal heat, however, often struggle with the hot season.

If you’re still having trouble, there are great acupuncture points to release heat and restore a more neutral body temperature. Summer can be the best time to treat

heat-related conditions, both for immediate relief and lasting effect.

‘Some people feel worse in Summer which can aggravate certain health conditions...’

Your spine is a complex structure made up of bones, muscles, nerves and joints, so pinpointing the exact cause of the pain can often be difficult.

However, most cases of back and neck pain are not caused by serious damage or disease but by sprains, minor strains, minor injuries or a pinched or irritated nerve.

It must be remembered that most of your body is connected to your spine in some way, so shoulder pain for instance may be caused by a back injury. Headaches may be caused by a vertebra out of alignment in your cervical vertebrae, and tingling in your fingers could be caused by a trapped nerve. SciaticaSciatica can be debilitating. It is often caused by a slipped (herniated) disc in the lumbar spine. To help prevent sciatica always ensure you lift objects correctly. Never strain or bend over to lift it up. If you do suffer from sciatica the quicker you seek professional help the better chance of recovery.

THE FOREIGN EXCHANGE MARKET (FOREX for short)The FOReign EXchange market if the mechanism by which currencies are traded. This‘virtual’ marketplace is an essential part of everyone’s daily life. Without it, we would not be able to easily trade with anyone who does not use our currency. Something as simple as importing wine from France would be almost impossible.Trading in this market has traditionally only been available to large institutions and banks. However, the emergence of the internet has brought this market to the small private investor, offering an alternative to the traditional forms of investment. If managed correctly, this can be a profitable and tax free method of making your money work for you. Access to this market has become very easy. Either through a free wproprietary software solution (called “Meta Trader 4”) offered by most brokers, or by online internet based solutions which varies between brokers. Accounts are easily opened and funded, with all UK brokers managed by the FSA.Investment in the market consists of placing a trade to either buy or sell a currency (no actual currency is ever actually bought or sold when carried out using the Tax Free method). The exchange rate will either rise or fall, allowing you to then

close the trade for a profit or loss. Money can be made on both rising and falling markets, and there are over 100 different exchange rates which can be traded, in addition to countless other markets like the FTSE100, German DAX, Gold price, etc..FOREX Capital offers training in this market, cutting through the jargon. We can advise on the basics from how to open an account right through to more advanced areas, such as how to manage risk and carry out fundamental and technical analysis of the market.We can even offer to automate your trading system with our team of in-house programmers. With adequate training and guidance, this market can prove to be one of the most exciting and fast paced markets available for investment. Trading can be carried out 24 hours per day, 5 days per week. It can provide a good additional income, a good alternative to bank savings accounts or even for some experienced trades - a main income!The FOREX market dwarfs other markets, trading over US$4 trillion per day (which is 50 times the turnover of the New York Stock Exchange). Introduce yourself to FOREX Capital, Training, Seminars and system development.

We will teach you how, on a one-to-one basis, so that you really know what you are doing

Have Fun, Stay Cool and Safe This SummerWith weather set to improve, get together with family and friends for a garden party and barbecue. There are a lot of factors that make for great barbecues and memorable times outdoors.Here are 5 tips for hosting a barbecue this season.

1. Safety FirstSome basic rules first. Wash those hands before cooking and eating! Use separate chopping boards for raw and cooked foods, keeping these foods apart. Keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold. Buy a meat probe to test to ensure the meat, especially poultry, is cooked properly. Always light a traditional barbecue at least half an hour before cooking to allow for the flames to die down. Avoid flare-ups by wiping off any excess marinades before placing it on the fire, and avoid overly fatty meats. Kettle barbecues are great for giving a smoky flavour by cooking with the lid on. Keep a water spray handy to doist the inevitable breakout of flames.

2. Make a Kickin’ SauceLet’s face it, a great barbecue is all about the sauce! Serious barbecue connoisseurs make their own sauces from scratch. Gather some recipe books and do some experimentation in the kitchen. Chose 3 or 4 versions of sauce that you

think are tasty, and then enjoy testing them when grilling. Cover your chicken breasts, hamburgers, shish-kababs, and steaks with different sauces. Dig in and taste - test your concoctions. If none of your sauces make the grade, use your favourite store-bought sauce. Add a little of this or a dash of that and make it your own. Using dried herbs such as rosemary, thyme, oregano in the coals will infuse the meat. Fish such as monkfish and salmon is also fabulous on the barbie. Veggie skewers taste great - peppers, onions, mushrooms, garlic, all make for great variation. Crisp potato skins with a brushing of olive oil. The point is to give your guests a taste treat!

3. Keep your Grill CleanA few days ahead of time, make sure you clean your grill. This should include the actual cooking surface all the other parts as well. Cooking on a dirty grill will add unwanted flavours to your foods. That is not a good thing. We say do it a couple days ahead

of time, because as the day gets near, or a rainy day keeps you from it, its easy to forget this step.

4. Plan Fun ActivitiesA volleyball court is awesome. An arsenal of soaker squirt guns or water balloons will keep young and old entertained. Most of your guests will be happy to sip a cold drink in the shade, others will want some fun things to do. Grandma’s and uncles alike may even like a pack of cards! Cover your bases and everyone will have a great time! A game of Jenga anyone?

5. Have Lots of DrinksStaying hydrated is a safety measure that will ensure everyone enjoys themselves. Have a cooler located where everyone can see it and make sure it is stocked with ice and water bottles. Having an awesome BBQ this summer can happen when you remember these tips for quality time in the garden.

Finding an artificial grass product that has the look of natural grass was never an option until recently. But with developments in the last 203 years we can now offer you a choice of looks that will give you the dream lawn all year round. We can even fit a carpet that will look like a freshly mowed lawn in the middle of summer with a mixture of green fibres and beige to give that thatched look. We use a new monofilament fibre to the feel of the carpet is soft to the touch and friendlier to animals.

Clean and safe • No mowing • No weeds • No more muddy patches • Hard wearing

• Unaff ected by weather/ uv stabilized • Green and usable all year round • Perfect for pets

Beautiful lawns without the upkeep

You were incredibly patient when we were deliberating over small aspects of the final design that allowed us to feel as though it was a truly working partnership.
