We all do it. In the world we live in, nothing is ever enough. That’s probably because we never treat ourselves to the life we deserve. For once, we ask you to set aside all inhibitions and cut yourself some slack. It seems that we all dream of living the celebrity lifestyle. In the June 2013 issue of Woman this Month, we invite you to welcome ‘the high life’ if only temporarily. We can’t guarantee that your life will be as opulent as that of a superstar, but there’s no reason why a certain level of luxury can’t be affordable. Energy-efficiency is a huge priority for the elite today. While they turn their mansions into eco-friendly habitats, Simi Kamboj takes a look at how we commoners can preserve the environment in our own little ways. Through the celebrity feature, we give you tips on how to live your life in the best way possible. From their envious wardrobes to their lavish homes, we take you on a journey through the life of an A-lister. We even tell you how to travel like one, with a review of the top three destinations based on your inner diva. We had the pleasure of speaking with Sheikha Hind bint Salman Al Khalifa, who is currently focused on bringing up the women of the Kingdom by providing them with mentoring and support through the Bahraini Businesswomen and Professionals Club. In the parenting section, Dr Clare Beckett-McInroy helps dads and mums seek help as they deal with health, social and emotional concerns. We also look at the common ailment of osteoporosis and how it can be prevented. Catch up on all this and our regular fashion and beauty tips in yet another exciting issue. Enjoy!
