My aesthetician, Grace, walked me through the process step by step and made the entire thing such a breeze. I was in and out of the spa in about an hour and a half. The procedure begins with an application of numbing cream. This helps dull the pain of the SkinPen needles hitting your skin (see picture to the right). From there, my face was cleaned up and prepped for the actual SkinPen to go to work. Grace then used a serum on my skin to begin the SkinPen facial. She glided the SkinPen all over my face, focusing on areas that needed a little more help.The Skin Pen delivers thousands of micro-injuiries to innate the body’s won healing process. I would say this was not a relaxing procedure, but I was comfortable. As far as pain, the only time I really was in “pain" was when the SkinPen moved across my nose and temples. I am not someone who enjoys shots or needles, so I was pleasantly surprised at how easy this was for me. As the micro-needles brush across your face.  The body begins to break down damaged tissue and produce healthy new cells. These cells repair and remodel the injured tissue, producing organized, healthy dermal tissue like collagen and elastin. 

This week I had a visit to “Serenity Med Spa and Wellness" and I had my first ever SkinPen Micro needling experience. This procedure is formulated to help boost the cell renewal process. ​

“Create the highest grandest vision possible for your life, because you become what you believe” - Oprah Winfrey 

STEPS TO MAKING A VISION BOARD:

1) Collect images, words, or quotes that inspire you. You can print these or cut them out of magazines/newspapers. 

2) Define your passions, calling, Intentions, Goals, and only speak positives. For example, If I want to work on saving money. I would write “Have X in savings this year” not “Don’t spend extra money”. The Universe only hears what you want and does not understand the difference between what you do not want. Another example- in 2017 I made a vision board that had a picture of me in my dress with a Miss Texas crown and sash. I had not won, but in my mind I was already Miss Texas USA. On my board I wrote, “Logan Lester, Miss Texas USA 2018”. I spoke with the assumption I was already what I wanted to be and it trained my mind to think positive. When I won, I was blown away by the power of manifestation. You can make your goals and visions come true with believing in yourself and working hard. (See below for my 2017 board)

3) Glue down your pictures and write away. Make sure your board provides clear direction, gives you life goals, and leads to change. 

4) Look at your board often and connect with the feelings under the intentions of the board. Only YOU can change your life and manifest your dreams. 

I made my vision board for 2019 with BIG visions in mind. I have my career goals written out, personal goals, material items I hope to buy (maybe), things that make me happy, things that inspire me, people that inspire me, and random other things I want to manifest. Comment below on what you think I should add to the blank part. I am thinking possibly the word of the year? What do you guys think?

I recently had the opportunity to visit College Station, TX. I stayed at TWO of College Stations newest hotels, THE GEORGE and Cavalary Court. I wanted to share my experience and thoughts of both hotels. I also connected with the hotels to put together a giveaway for my followers. Head over to my instagram (@lololester) to enter the contest for a nights stay at either The George or Cavalry Court. ​
