Natural Skincare Methods


Caring for your Skin 



It is very important to take pride in your skin. It is vital to consider what we apply topically, as it is absorbed by the skin and enters the bloodstream. 

Most creams are created to have a long shelf life. This means they are often full of harmful preservatives, parabens and other toxins that can do long term damage.
Here are a few examples of how you can look after your skin effectively: 

Drink more water
Staying hydrated keeps your skin healthy, moisturised and radiant. 

Get to know your skin type
Getting to know your skin type will help you understand what products and ingredients it needs.

Cleansing 
Cleansing your skin when you wake up and before bed is important as it helps to remove any impurities and bacteria from the surface of your skin. 

Use natural products
Natural products are skin friendly and have beneficial properties, that are healthier and much safer to use. 

Routine
   Start to develop a morning and evening skin care regime as this is a great way to address your skin concerns and maintain healthy looking skin. 

Research
In order to avoid using toxic chemicals, do your research and try to purchase products from companies that care about what they are providing. In addition, look at the ingredients so that you can consciously become more aware of what you are putting onto your skin.

Treat Yourself To Some Time Alone

When I think about coziness, I think about being warm and comfortable. I picture myself centering into tranquility in the comfort of my home. I usually try and make Sunday my lazy day where I let go of any sense of guilt towards not being productive.  To me, it is simply my day to relax, slow down and refuel my energy.

Aromatherapy Oils

Aromatherapy has been practised for thousands of years and has continued to serve us in a variety of ways. The oils are used in medicines, cosmetics, recipes, rituals and spas frequently for their aroma, medicinal, ceremonial and therapeutic benefits. Most recently, essential oils have been used in hospitals as clinical complimentary treatments in patient care. This is a positive sign that shows how marrying modern medicines and holistic services together can greatly help with improving well being.  Emotions Our emotions vary and the feelings we experience can unsettle us at times. Essential oils are useful as we can implement them daily to help us with our emotions. There are oils that help to relax, de-stress, boost mood, and stimulate our senses. One of my go-to oils is Frankincense which serves to help with a number of areas. It is an oil that has the potential to balance hormones and can be used to relieve depression and anxiety symptoms.  Bod...

EMPOWERING YOUR THOUGHTS

Waking up with a feeling of gratitude towards life is beneficial for our well being. We all have days where we wake up and struggle to find positivity. Reminding yourself of the good things in life will help encourage healthier thoughts to spread throughout your day. Empowering Ourselves The phrase "What you think, you become" holds a lot of truth.  We have to be kinder to ourselves to transform and maintain productive thoughts that serve to empower us. We also need to acknowledge doubtful and depressing thoughts often stem from other peoples actions or words. When I acknowledged this myself, I knew I had to work on my thoughts to rebuild my inner peace. To affirm positive thoughts, I do these following things: ·    Meditation is continuing to teach me how to calm my thoughts and bring my attention to the present moment. ·    Singing positive songs can be motivating and has a positive influence on my thoughts and mood. ·    List...
