Love Yourself First: Celebrate Confidence with Richland MD’s Valentine’s Specials

February 12, 2025

Transform your look and embrace confidence with February specials

This Valentine’s Day, forget the flowers and chocolates – celebrate the most important relationship you’ll ever have: the one with yourself. Self-love isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a transformative practice that fuels confidence, happiness, and personal growth. By taking steps to look and feel your best, you’re not only investing in yourself but also creating a ripple effect that touches every area of your life. At Richland MD, self-love begins with celebrating your unique beauty, and this February, they’re offering opportunities to help individuals feel more confident and radiant than ever.

“I have seen firsthand the difference that some cosmetic procedures can make in one’s attitude and lifestyle,” explains Dr. Brandon Richland, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Newport Beach, California. “When people feel good about themselves there is no telling what they will accomplish, the sky’s the limit.”

According to Psychology Today, confidence is a belief in oneself and the willingness to act accordingly. People who are confident, they report, are seen as having more credibility, better first impressions, are better able to deal with pressure, and are more open to tackling challenges in life. 

Cultivating self-love fosters greater confidence, empowering individuals to make better decisions, build healthier relationships, and enhance both their physical and mental well-being. Psychology Today reports that self love includes treating yourself with kindness and prioritizing your health. Loving yourself includes maintaining a positive outlook about who you are, and it lays the foundation for assertiveness, establishing boundaries, nurturing healthy relationships, practicing self-care, pursuing personal interests, and feeling pride with one’s identity. 

For many people, confidence starts by liking what they see when they look in the mirror. There are often things people would like to improve so they can feel more confident. Most people want to change something about their appearance, but few do anything about it so they can feel better. When it comes to one’s appearance, there is a lot that can be changed, opening the door to more self confidence. 

Here are five things to do to help improve self-love and confidence:

  • Do things that make you happy and feel better about yourself. This may include changing your appearance or surroundings. People who like the way they look and what their surroundings are like are more likely to feel good about life in general. 
  • Make yourself a priority. Women are especially known for putting the needs of everyone else before their own. However, you can’t pour from an empty cup. It’s crucial to fulfill your own needs first, before you can be of service to others.
  • Be kind to yourself and celebrate who you are. For example, this Valentine’s Day, book a spa and beauty day for yourself. Allow yourself to be pampered and cared for, so you feel good going forward.
  • Create a positive affirmation that you can repeat throughout the day. This will help keep you focused on being more positive and train your brain to focus on what you want it to.
  • Nourish your body and mind. Do things every week that help to keep your body and mind healthy and feeling good. Whether it is exercising, going to the spa, getting a massage, or whatever, just get it on the calendar and do it.

“Now is the time to love who you are,” said Dr. Richland. “Make a goal to do something to improve how you see yourself. You will be glad you did and only wish you had done it sooner.”

Richland MD is making it easier for people to treat themselves to a self care beauty day, by offering a variety of promotions. February 2025 self-love Valentine’s promotions at Richland Aesthetics include:

COUNTERPART: Finally, a Charger That’s as Stylish as It is Smart

February 9, 2025

Meet Counterpart, the chic, consciously designed charger that’s here to upgrade both your space and your charging experience.

Let’s be honest—charging is a mess. My home has been a graveyard of tangled cords, mismatched adapters, and chargers that mysteriously stop working – a never-ending clutter with tangled cords, mystery adapters, and obsolete cables that seem to multiply overnight. The average American buys four chargers a year, contributing to a never-ending cycle of electronic waste and frustration. But what if there was a better way?

Meet Counterpart, the chic, consciously designed charger that’s here to upgrade both your space and your charging experience.

Most chargers are forgettable at best, eyesores at worst. Counterpart is different. With its sleek, rippled silicone exterior and button-enabled cord retractor, it looks like something that actually belongs on my desk, not stuffed behind it. The materials—silicone and post-consumer plastic—make it feel both premium and durable

A Design That Belongs in Your Home

Forget those clunky, forgettable chargers that get hidden behind furniture. Counterpart is a statement piece—sleek, sculptural, and meant to be seen. Crafted from silicone and post-consumer plastic, it’s as stylish as it is sustainable. The soft, rippled exterior isn’t just visually appealing; it’s durable and satisfying to the touch. Plus, the button-enabled cord retractor keeps everything neat and organized. No more cord chaos—just a beautifully designed essential that effortlessly blends into your space.

The Future is USB-C

Counterpart isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about smart, future-forward tech. Powered by USB-C, the industry’s gold standard, it’s designed for speed, efficiency, and longevity. Here’s why that matters:

  • Reversibility – No more flipping the connector five times before it fits. USB-C works both ways.
  • Speed – Faster power delivery means less time waiting for your devices to charge.
  • Recyclability – USB-C contains fewer materials, making it easier to repurpose.
  • Versatility – From phones to laptops, USB-C is the universal standard.
  • Durability – Built to last, reducing waste and constant replacements.

DEETS:  35 Watts of GaN charging for all of your favorite USB-C compatible devices. With our retractable cord feature, you can throw it in your bag or your back pocket, no pesky tail. 75mm, 4 foot cord. 100-240V input.

The Counterpart charger works with devices that have USB-C ports. If your phone or other device has a Lightning or other port, you may use an adapter.

35 Watts may not be efficient for larger devices but is powerful enough for Macbook Air and smaller, including:

Phones Tablets E-Readers Game Consoles Earbuds Headphones VR Headsets And More

Charging, But Make It Conscious

Counterpart believes that when you love your things, you take better care of them. That’s why they are committed to sustainability—not just in materials, but in mindset. They are proud members of 1% for the Planet, pledging a portion of sales to environmental causes. And when it’s time to retire your old, dust-covered chargers –  they help you recycle them responsibly with our interactive e-waste recycling map.

Technology is a huge part of our lives, but how we interact with it matters. Beyond creating beautifully designed essentials, Counterpart is sparking conversations around digital wellbeing and tech-conscious living.

Counterpart isn’t just another charger—it’s the first one I actually want to use. It’s stylish, smart, and built to last. If you’re tired of cord clutter and short-lived adapters, this is the upgrade you need.

Ready to upgrade? Counterpart is available now in a range of gorgeous colors. And because we love a good deal—buy any color, get half off Pucker with code VDAY2025. Because charging should be effortless, elegant, and just a little bit fun.

Why You Need to Try Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy at Under Pressure in Beverly Hills

January 28, 2025

If you haven’t tried Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) yet, it’s time to get on board—especially if you’re looking to fast-track recovery, optimize your body, or just give yourself an extra wellness boost. My experience at Under Pressure Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Beverly Hills was nothing short of transformative.

Under Pressure is located at 250 N Robertson Blvd, and from the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a team of expert professionals who make you feel right at home. Not only are they highly knowledgeable, but they also create a laid-back, personalized experience, helping you make the most of your therapy session.

Now, let’s dive into the actual magic of HBOT. The process involves breathing 100% pure oxygen at a higher pressure, which ramps up the oxygen delivered to your tissues, promotes healing, and supports your body in ways that make it feel like you’re operating on a higher level. The benefits are multi-faceted, and here’s why I’m obsessed with it:

  • Accelerated Healing & Tissue Regeneration: One of the most powerful benefits of HBOT is its ability to enhance tissue repair. It speeds up recovery from both chronic wounds and acute injuries, by reducing inflammation, stimulating angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth), and helping repair damaged tissues faster.
  • Enhanced Neurocognitive Function: This one really grabbed my attention. HBOT delivers high concentrations of oxygen to the brain, promoting neurogenesis (new brain cell growth), and is especially helpful for neurological conditions like brain injuries and stroke recovery. I definitely felt my mental clarity sharpened after a few sessions.
  • Immune System Modulation: By improving oxygen saturation in your bloodstream, HBOT strengthens your immune system. It helps with pathogen clearance and reduces infection risk—perfect if you’re recovering from an illness or need to strengthen your defenses.
  • Pain & Inflammation Reduction: For anyone dealing with chronic pain or injuries, HBOT is a game-changer. Its anti-inflammatory properties help alleviate conditions like arthritis, sports injuries, and general muscle soreness, speeding up recovery and reducing pain.

After a session, I could feel the difference in my body: less inflammation, reduced muscle soreness, and a renewed sense of energy. It’s an all-encompassing wellness treatment that goes far beyond just feeling “good.”

On top of all that, I loved how Under Pressure made the experience enjoyable. The chambers are designed to be comfortable, and during your treatment, you can watch your favorite shows or listen to music, making it a relaxing, almost spa-like experience. It’s the perfect way to unwind while getting a serious boost to your body and mind.

They also offer additional services like IV Therapy for hydration and energy replenishment, EBOO Therapy (which detoxifies and oxygenates your blood—yes, it’s as awesome as it sounds), and Peptide Therapy for muscle recovery, anti-aging, and immune support.

Under Pressure has truly set the bar high in wellness. The staff’s care and personalized approach make it stand out, and the benefits you gain from HBOT and their other services are nothing short of life-changing.
