NEW YEAR, NEW ROUTINE
So many of us are taking account of our habits and routines at this time of year. Of course, this is something I’m asked about all the time in the treatment room. The approach that I’ve seen work so well over the years, and which aligns with my own philosophy of holistic living, is to start any new phase by asking, where can I simplify? What can I let go of first, before adding anything new to my routine?
This simplicity first approach might mean adjusting your dietary habits to reduce sugar and processed foods in order to benefit from your holistic skin care routine. It might mean streamlining your schedule in order to make time for movement and exercise. Or you might let go of late night streaming to make room for more sleep. Bringing kind conscious awareness to the lifestyle factors that support your goals not only optimizes all your efforts, it keeps your routine sustainable. And more than that, this paring down and refining process helps us see what is most essential, and all the things for which we can be grateful.
I hope you’ll join me in this joyful commitment to simplify, letting go in order to bring a freshness and a lightness to the new year.
{SLEEP DEEPLY}
When the days are short, and the holidays are behind us, it’s the best time to catch up on sleep. It’s something we hear so much about now—sleep is the new meditation! To bring a beautiful touch to your sleep routine, apply a little Bulgarian Lavender Body Oil to the décolleté just before bedtime. Lavender is soothing in every way and we’ve heard so many stories of how this simple act of care can restore beauty rest.
{FRESH & CLEAN}
One of the things that makes Cleansing Milk so special is its ability to wash away impurities without stripping the skin’s protective barrier. Especially during the winter months, this natural protection is essential for keeping skin hydrated and healthy.
{RESTORE HYDRATION}
When the skin is overworked and a little depleted, as so often is the case after the holidays, Tammy recommends bringing Intensive Repair Balm into your skin care routine. This best-selling formula is blended with Lotus Leaf, containing phytonutrients to restore elasticity, and Milk Thistle, which can help re-plump the skin with a rich supply of omega-6 fatty acids. It’s intense in all the right ways.
