If you suffer from acne you know how it can impede your life. It can shake your confidence and even lead to hopelessness and depression. Toni Ann Johnson suffered with adult acne for years, and continued to suffer even while under the care of physicians who prescribed the requisite medications: antibiotics, Accutane and Retin A. Finally, she sought ways to control acne that were effective, affordable, and salutary for the body, rather than deleterious. After years of researching what worked and what didn't, she found a path that led to being acne free. Two types of bacteria contribute to acne: Propionibacterium Acnes and Staphylococcus Aures. These are found not only on the surface of the skin, but also within the intestines. When you take antibiotics, you kill the bacteria and your skin clears up. But antibiotics are not only expensive, they disrupt healthy intestinal flora, which can lead to other problems. The book contains information on effective, inexpensive, and healthful ways to control bacteria. Oily skin and fluctuating hormone levels do not make acne inevitable. You will learn how to achieve clear skin despite overactive oil glands. VIBRANT and CLEAR is a comprehensive, yet fun to read, and easy to follow guide that will empower readers in their ability to achieve and maintain healthy, glowing skin.
A woman in her 40s who looks decades younger, Toni Ann Johnson has often been asked for the secret to her youthfulness. Finally, she's written a book that shares the many facets of a youth engendering lifestyle. As she explains, there is no "one thing," it's everything. From skincare, to diet and exercise, to internal emotional work, the book is a combination of family secrets, a lifetime of experience studying health and beauty, and researched anti-aging facts. Vibrating Youth reads like a conversation with a girlfriend, yet it's thorough and substantive enough to help you create valuable, lasting changes that will leave you younger, inside and out.
In 1962 Philip Arrington, a psychologist with a PhD from Yeshiva, arrives in the small, mostly blue-collar town of Monroe, New York, to rent a house for himself and his new wife. They're Black, something the man about to show him the house doesn't know. With that, we're introduced to the Arringtons: Phil, Velma, his daughter Livia (from a previous marriage), and his youngest, Madeline, soon to be born. They're cosmopolitan. Sophisticated. They're also troubled, arrogant, and throughout the linked stories, falling apart. We follow the family as Phil begins his private practice, as Velma opens her antiques shop, and as they buy new homes, collect art, go skiing, and have overseas adventures. It seems they've made it in the white world. However, young Maddie, one of the only Black children in town, bears the brunt of the racism and the invisible barriers her family's money, education, and determination can't free her from. As she grows up and realizes her father is sleeping with white women, her mother is violently mercurial, and her half-sister resents her, Maddie must decide who she is despite, or perhaps precisely because of, her family.
