About Marriage Family Counseling
Counseling for marriage can begin before the official marriage. Pre-marital counseling is often recommended for engaged couples to help them sort out any major differences prior to making a huge commitment. Problems and issues that arise during marriage often lead to the need for more counseling. This doesn’t mean that either partner is abnormal, just that they are two imperfect humans trying to learn how to deal with each other. Marriage problems inevitably affect the whole landscape of the family. It is common for couples with serious or long-term marriage problems to feel a need to include their children, as the tension between the marriage partners tends to create tension in all the family relationships. That is where marriage and family counseling comes in.

Herbal Remedies to Reduce Stress & Anxiety
Pressure. Anxiety. Tension. Worry. Stress. Whatever you call it, you know when it’s heavy on your shoulders. You might get tension headaches, feel nauseous or have anxiety attacks. Or your symptoms may be less physical and more behavioral: a constant feeling of irritation, a sense of being overwhelmed, an inability to relax, a constant need to defend yourself (which often comes out as a version of attacking others). The symptoms of stress tend to create even more stress. You may not be able to take a week-long beach vacation to get away from the sources of the stress, but you can incorporate some herbal remedies into your daily routine. Stress always exists somewhere, but learning to cope with it calmly and naturally puts you back in charge.
What Causes Age Spots?
Members of the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) say that age spots are almost always caused by exposure to the sun. The sun stimulates melanin production, and if we make a habit of being out in the sun too long unprotected, brown spots can appear on the skin when we get older. Skin receives more sun damage over time, increasing the likelihood of developing dark pigmentations later in life. While sunspots are common in individuals with fair skin, people with darker complexions can also develop age spots. There are steps that women can take to prevent age spots, but first we have to have a better understanding of the causes.
