Water Your Skin and Body

1/22/2020

Water is your most important skin care and diet superfood.  Water helps you lose weight, properly absorb and excrete vitamins, aids digestion, and prevents wrinkles.  Water is key to how I care for myself.

I wake up every morning and begin with warm water and lemon.  It is the ideal beverage to enjoy on my way to my workout. It is warming, prehydrates me, and feels so soothing in the morning.  According to Ayurveda, warm lemon water detoxifies and prepares the digestive system.

Tea is hands down my favorite beverage.  I alternate tea and water throughout the day. My favorites are the Jasmine Green from Flying Bird Botanticals which we use for jolieLife, Casablanca from Mariage Frere, and The Des Legendes also from Mariage Frere.   All tea, especially green tea, contains powerful antioxidants to help your skin, immunity, and protects against cancer.

I hydrate from within daily with vegetable rich jolieLife food.   Eating 6-8 cups of vegetables a day supplies my body with water at a slow and steady pace.  My favorites for hydration are green leaves of all kinds and cucumbers. The jolie Daily Greens is my favorite part of a meal.

Besides eating and drinking water, I spritz my face several times a day with facial mist. I have a travel size in my purse and in my car.  My favorite is Josh Rosebrook Hydrating Accelerator which I get from Detox Market.

Keeping hydrated will help you GLOW throughout the winter!
Love,
Julia

It's All About You

1/1/2020

 
How many tradeoffs did you make in the last six weeks offering up your own pleasure, wellbeing, or peace of mind for the good or pleasure of someone else? How often to you go to bed late, indulge, or buy something not because you wanted to, but because you had to do it?

Well, December is over and now it is time to return to you. If that seems impossible - many find that even in say May they are constantly putting themselves aside for others - 2020 is a wonderful opportunity to consider making different choices.

In our culture, women are raised in the expectation of choosing other people’s happiness instead of their own. It is very difficult, if not impossible to say yes to our own joy, our own happiness, our own pleasure. We have no experience prioritizing our own pleasure or investing in ourselves if it inconveniences someone else. But it is easy, as natural as breathing, to say yes to obligation and responsibility.

Let this year be the year of both. Saying yes to your obligations and responsibilities and yes to your own pleasure.

I began this yes to my pleasure this morning. I chose to go to Bar because it makes me feel good inside. I began my day with movement dancing to my favorite song to get my blood pumping. I postponed brunch to 12 so the feeling of lightness could return to my body after last night’s feast.

Think of three ways this week you can say yes to your own pleasure. Say yes to an investment in your own happiness, health, and wellness.  

Love,
Julia

P.S. This is a new decade to live intentionally and create the best you.
