BACK TO THE BASICS
EA Can Teach You What Parents & Schools Could Not
Essential Aesthetics believes that the ultimate purpose of
life is simply to be happy. By integrating intellectual,
physical, social, emotional, spiritual, aesthetics, and
creative teachings, Essential Aesthetics does its part to
contribute to an individual’s personal discoveries and
happiness.
By definition, ‘Image’ is a concept of an idea one wish to
portray. We provide key information to enable individuals
to make their wish come true no matter the age or gender.
Essential Aesthetics specializes in bringing out the best
in individuals by addressing unique concerns so that they
can feel comfortable being true to themselves.
“Bringing Out The Best In You” is our slogan and our
business is structured to help individuals recognize the
need to understand the core (ESSENTIAL) of who they are and
meant to be. Then, see the beauty that exist within and
make the outer appearance (AESTHETICS) match the inner,
which helps individuals manage the way others respond to
them. Living a life knowing, loving and being able to
express the true self, will allow for individuals to
increase their chance of becoming positive role models in
their homes, neighborhood and community.
We know, value need to be created in the early or some
stage of life on the importance of having and maintaining
an image that positively represent individuals inside, out
and head-to-toe. You see, according to the percentages,
individual’s creditability is measured on 67% visually, 25%
vocally, and 8% verbally. This means we are living in a
society that makes the majority of their decisions on what
they see; and not what is said, but how one says it. One’s
appearance strongly influences other people’s perception of
their capabilities:
*Trustworthiness
*Suitable for hire or promotion
*Financial success
*Authority
*And...worth investing social time
To eliminate problem areas that you may or may not be aware
of, and work with a genuine image team in developing a
total look that will become your signature, contact

Details Make All the Difference
Tailoring is a must and should not be overlooked. An
untailored outfit can make you look heavier, sloppy and
unsophisticated. Tailoring your clothes will not only make
your look mean business, but also:
*Look 10 pounds thinner
*Give a polish look
*Make your outfit more expensive
*Update your style instantly
Make sure you get the right fit and your clothes are
comfortable before purchasing. When shopping for outfits:
*Try clothes on
*Try sitting and stretching to ensure comfort
For business - avoid wearing clothes that are too short
suit jacket and shirts, too tight, too revealing and/or
sheer
Men, it’s important to know the essentials for wearing a
perfectly tailored suit.
*Suit jacket sleeve should end where wrist meets hand and
not show more than ½ inch of shirt cuff sleeves
*Ties end at middle or bottom of belt
*Shoulder of suit jacket should extends about a ½ inch past
actual shoulder
*Length of suit jackets end just below the seat of pants,
except for various tuxedo style
Pants
*Trouser legs should cover top of shoes in front
Prepare yourself before shopping by knowing your actual
measurements and clothing sizes. To learn how to take your
measurement and see where you are on the US or European
size chart go to: www.VisitEA.net

Does that outfit look as good on you as you think?
Ever look in the mirror and wonder if this is the right
outfit or see one that looks great on someone and feel you
got to have it. To make every purchase count and be
confident in making wardrobe decisions, first you need to
know yourself -- meaning your body types, portion, how to
balance your figure and camouflage the flaws. Just because
it looks good on someone else (even your best friend)
doesn’t mean it will do you any good. For example: Ladies,
if your girlfriend has narrow shoulders, hips and slim
waist and you have a slim waist, a little wider shoulders
and hips or an hourglass shape; the outfit will not do for
you as it does on her. It's important to know the
essentials before heading out to spend your hard earned
money at the stores. First, shop in your own closet to
create new outfits. When going out to shop, have a budget
and idea of what you are looking for…the best colors,
fabrics, shapes and/or lengths. Always try on and take
note of how it fits and flatters YOUR body. Also, when a
friend has the perfect outfit for you to borrow or have,
don’t be so quick to take it. The way an item fits can
make or break the entire outfit and most important, YOUR
IMAGE!

How To Have An Effective vs. Non-Effective Marriage
"A wedding anniversary is the celebration of love, trust,
partnership, tolerance, and tenacity. The order varies for
any given year" (Paul Sweeney).
It takes many kinds of character strength to make a
marriage work, not the least of which is commitment. In any
given marriage, the combination of character traits is
blended differently; some marriages have a greater portion
of love, some of partnership, and some of tenacity. But all
successful marriages are built from the raw materials
supplied by character. Personality may have gotten things
started, but character is what keeps it going.
A good marriage is no accident, and when one has been
built, it's a thing of admirable beauty. Love stories are
always refreshing, of course, but the most refreshing are
those that have stood the test of time. Think of your
grandparents, for example. Without knowing them, I'd
venture to guess that they were married for quite a long
while, despite difficulties that had to be overcome, and
that their relationship is something you find it
encouraging to think about.
It's not stretching the truth to say that an effective
marriage is one of the highest achievements that a human
being is capable of. Those who've paid the price to be
worthy marriage partners have done something that requires
far more substance than it would take to win the World
Series or the Nobel Prize. If you know someone who has
helped to build a good marriage, let them know that they're
a bigger hero in your eyes than those who usually make the
evening news.
Marriage is what we might call a "dynamic" relationship:
within it, things move and change and shift. You can't be
in the marriage relationship without being changed -- and
without changing the person you're married to. The question
is not whether we'll "grow," but whether we'll make that
growth positive rather than negative. So may we commit
ourselves, today and every day, two important things:
growing toward greater health in our own character and
growing toward a more healthful influence on the spouse to
whom we promised ourselves, the one who's being affected by
everything we do.
"You don't marry one person; you marry three: the person
you think they are, the person they are, and the person
they are going to become as the result of being married to
you" (Richard Needham).
Love and Happiness Continued...
WHAT KEEPS A RELATIONSHIP STRONG?
1. TRUST
2. COMMUNICATION
3. INTIMACY
4. A SENSE OF HUMOR
5. SHARING TASKS
6. SOME GETAWAY TIME WITHOUT BUSINESS OR CHILDREN
7. DAILY EXCHANGES (meal, shared activity, hug, call,
touch, notes)
8. SHARING COMMON GOALS AND INTERESTS
9. GIVING EACH OTHER SPACE TO GROW WITHOUT FEELING INSECURE
10. GIVING EACH OTHER A SENSE OF BELONGING AND ASSURANCES
OF COMMITMENT
If these qualities are missing, the relationship will erode
as resentment withdrawal, abuse, neglect, and dishonesty;
and pain will replace it.
Remember:
Happiness keeps You Sweet,
Trials keep You Strong,
Sorrows keep You Human,
Failures keep You Humble,
Success keeps You Glowing,
But...Only faith keeps You Going!
"In search for me, I discovered truth. In search for
truth, I discovered love and in search for love, I
discovered faith. In faith, I have found everything."
"Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you
take your eyes off your goals."...Authors Unknown
