Press Release Summary = Lifestyle Entrepreneur Offers Tips and a Gift to Women



Press Release Body = San Diego -November 13, 2006- The hustle-bustle of the holidays
often leaves many women frazzled, frustrated and overwhelmed. But according to one
lifestyle entrepreneur, you can reduce the stress by celebrating Give Yourself a
Gift Day on December 13.

"You\'d think that stores were giving away gifts, the way shoppers flock to malls
during the holidays. But for most families, gift buying typifies just one holiday
activity that can lead to seasonal stress," says Lifestyle Entrepreneur Heather
Moore.

When the holidays come along, people already predisposed to stress can find
themselves feeling blue and more stressed out than usual. For those who don\'t
ordinarily feel stressed under the pressure of events or deadlines, the holidays can
still play havoc with our lives. "That's why I created Give a Gift to Yourself Day -
to find a way to treat yourself during the stressful holiday season."

To celebrate the day, Moore is offering a free lipstick. "One of the best ways
women can feel less stress is to feel better about themselves," she says. "And what
better way to feel great than with a new lipstick?" The lipstick is available to
anyone by going to http://www.women-in-biz.com/home_gift.htm.

Moore also points out several ways to give yourself more gifts, without spending
anything:

. Eat Right. A healthy diet is important any time of year, but perhaps even more so
during the holidays, when an assortment of treats, sweets and high-fat foods are all
too tempting. Instead, focus on healthy alternatives such as fruits, vegetables and
lean meats, and drink plenty of water, which helps curb appetite.

. Exercise. Regular exercise is always a priority, even during hectic times like the
holiday season. Studies, in fact, have shown that exercise reduces stress.

. Rest Up. Not enough rest feeds stress, and can leave one feeling grumpy, unfocused
or overwhelmed. The amount of sleep a person needs varies, but a good target is
seven to eight hours.

. Get Real. Stress often is caused by the void between the way we think the holiday
season ought to be and the way life really is. Letting go of the Leave It to Beaver
images of families and relationships during the holidays can help ease feelings of
disappointment, anxiety or anger.

. Remember What\'s Important. Despite the barrage of commercialism in the media
throughout the holidays, remind yourself that the holiday season isn\'t about armfuls
of presents and keeping up with the neighbors. It\'s about family, and friends.
