The Chance of You Not Having a Great Day? Zero to None!

The last Women’s Expo of the year will be held on Nov. 9 at the Carlisle Expo Center, and it’s sure to be exciting.

I don’t know how it got to be November already, but that means the holidays are just around the corner. Let the shopping begin! Many of you have gone digital, but at the Women’s Expo you’re going to be able to see, feel, taste, or perhaps even smell products on display! With the plethora of home-based businesses, you’ll find many unique gift-giving ideas, everything from the no-bra wire-free cami, chocolates, and jewelry to cosmetics, skin care, cleaning supplies, thermals and totes, and more.

And ladies, look around your home. Do you need a kitchen or bath remodel? Talk to the experts and then be ready to be amazed.

How about your windows and doors? The cold will be setting in and if you want to keep the drafts out and your heating bills lower, talk to company representatives at the expo. They can guide you to what will work for you and often be able to get the windows/doors installed before the extreme weather hits.

And for a taste of what else will be at the Women’s Expo, the Castlerigg Wine Shop will have wine sampling. They’ve always been a big hit, and many guests have graced their Thanksgiving tables with a new varietal or given a bottle of Castlerigg’s wine as a house gift.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Women’s Expo without chair massages. Thanks to Homeland at Home, you can sit and enjoy the effects of a therapist working on your neck, shoulders, back, arms, and hands. Ooh la la!

Continuing the relaxing experience, have a mini manicure by Shears Cosmetology. Can you say, “Ahhhhh”?

Many women experience difficulty in losing weight. I know I’ve tried (and failed) many times. A representative from BeBalanced will take the stage to talk about hormone imbalance and why that could be the problem. She’ll explain that a hormone imbalance can also affect sleep, energy, libido, and more. But there is hope, so don’t miss the presentation. You don’t have to gain weight over the holidays.

Being able to protect yourself is important. Dr. Fred Waters, a grandmaster in the martial arts with more than 40 years of experience and a 10th dan red belt, will demonstrate how to use anything as a weapon for personal self-defense in this hands-on seminar.

Do you believe in psychics? Jan Helen McGee, a real psychic, has worked with police departments and has starred in an episode of Psychic Witness. She will talk about her psychic secrets and acceptance, along with the twists and turns of her specialized, confounding skill set.

And don’t miss the Selfie Station, located next to the stage. Take your picture with “Capt. Jack Sparrow” or choose some props and take a selfie alone or with a friend. It’s a memory made!

There will also be furry canines in the Puppy Hugging area. Get (and give) some loving. Proceeds benefit the Purple Leash Foundation.
