The holidays, while mostly enjoyable, can also bring about a real ?letdown? feeling when they?re over. We often feel blue, out-of-sorts, and lacking direction and focus. So what do we do to feel more ?together? and ?in control? after such a time? We make resolutions! You know the drill: I will lose 10 pounds in the next three months, I will be kinder to my partner, I?ll stick to a strict budget, etc. info@womens411.com (Esther R.

After witnessing countless women?s journeys on the road to healing from a hurtful love affair, the conclusion that I?ve come to is that ?the only way out is through.? This, dear reader, is probably NOT the answer you were looking for. However, I?m a big believer in dealing with reality and not seeking simple solutions to complex problems. info@womens411.com (Esther R.

Why do I feel so passionate about this subject? Well, I was one once many moons ago and I can?t believe I made it out alive and am now a well-adjusted, mostly-healthy woman. One of the things I say to teen girl clients a lot is, ?I hope there?s no such thing as reincarnation because I wouldn?t want to have to come back and be a teenager all over again!? info@womens411.com (Esther R.

As I write this, I have brightly coloured tulips to gaze at happily in my garden. Spring is a great time to start eating healthier, lighter food, wear bright colours, and get outdoors. It also happens to be a great time to fall in love. Perhaps scientists will one day reveal a specific chemical that flies around in the spring air that gets the pheromones going. Who knows? Maybe they already have?but before you take that exuberant leap into a special someone?s arms and fall head-over-heels, here are some suggestions to keep your head in the clouds, while your feet are firmly planted on the ground. info@womens411.com (Esther R.

Most new moms, if they have taken a leave from work, have taken an unpaid leave of absence. After that bundle of joy arrives, they often realize that the six weeks or six months with the new baby just will not be enough time. info@womens411.com (Marilyn Mackenzie) Tue, 05 Dec 2006 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.womens411.com/articles/146/1/The-Life-of-a-Brokeback-Wife---An-Inside-Look-at-Same-Sex-Infidelity Brokeback Mountain provides a rare glimpse of what it's like to be a victim of same sex infidelity.
