Girls Make Graves before their music took on the pseudy, slightly muddled edge that made 2003's The New Romancea minor disappointment. Balanced neatly on the precipice between purge-and-vent emotion and post-hardcore complexity, PGMG ride a similar dynamic to Washington DC's Fugazi, forever ricocheting between moments of passionate excess and stoic experimentation, but always pulling back from the brink of each extreme. The album peaks early well, immediately, if we're honest with the fantastic "Speakers Push The Air", a pleasingly straightforward hymn to the life-altering properties of rock music, pouting lead singer Andrea Zollo hurling the words "And nothing else matters when I turn it up loud!" with sheer adolescent joy. There's much good besides, though: "3 Away" imagines Bikini Kill if they had the chops to match the polemic, while "The Getaway" the tale of a teenage runaway adds a tender edge to Pretty Girls' rather hard visage. Even if you were turned off by the follow-up, Good Health is well worth picking up. --Louis Pattison

Advantages: A good guide - has all three holistic subjects Disadvantages: Not ideal to rely on as just a training method on its own - not enough in depth

The aromatherapy industry is increasing rapidly. It is very common for boosting stress and the daily interruptions we get. There is so much you can learn from aromatherapy and this dvd is great for providing you with a basic guide. Victoris Sprigg gives you some advice on the oils and which ones are best used for each complaint. She uses the techniques for both phsychological and physical conditions. She demonstrates a basic facial massage which is so relaxing and great for your skin. The routine she uses is so easy to follow and can be very beneficial.
Although she gives you a basic guide, you must remember than aromatherapy oils can be harmful if used incorrectly so please seek advise from a qualified aromatherapist. Never use an oil neat, always dilute in a medium (oil or cream).
Swiss Reflex: -
As a holistic therapist I was quite impressed with this method. Although it is not actual reflexology, it does follow the same principles.
Where as reflexology is pressure points to the feet following a certain pattern according to the parts of the body, this method begins with the spine.
Victoria Sprigg assesses the spine in the foot and picks up any points there which are sore or crunchy. She then concentrates the treatment soley on the parts triggered.
Not only does she use the pressure points, but she uses aromatherapy oils too to help the conditions detected.
I found it interesting the way she dabs the diluted oil under the clients nose so that they benefit more from the smell.
She can detect anything from chronic back pain to sluggish digestive system.
Again, this is a basic guide so please seek assistance from a reflexologist before performing this treatment.
Swedish Massage: -
This is the massage routine we use when we go to Salons and spas (more than often anyway.).
Swedish massage can help with stress, muscular pain or relaxation and like aromatherapy and reflexology has been around for thousands of years.
Victoris Sprigg demonstrates a full body massage using a variety of techniques. She described what the movements do and how to do them. The scientific principles behind each technique is explained fully.
I have found that everyones routine is different but as long as you stick to the basic moves, massage can be very beneficial.

Advantages: Great storyline, great actors! Disadvantages: not exactly reflective of the book
considered "heavy going" to watch, and although its not exactly a chill out before bed movie I still find myself regularly scheduling in evenings to watch this classic. You will find humour, sadness and also a somewhat scary reality, that anyone of us could fall captive to mental illness, but also hope in that anyone of us could summon the strength Miss Kaysen found to cross back into what may be considered by society to be good mental health. I highly recommed that this be a part of everyone's film collections.
The dvd contains some extra deleted scenes well worth watching, as well as interviews with Winona Rider and Susanna Kaysen herself, both talking about how it felt for Winona to portray this character.
The film is approximately 2 hours long, with a well chosen soundtrack featuring the likes of Wilco and their song, "How to fight ...
