This guide is all about pampering yourself, feeling fabulous, and hitting that reset button. Let’s dive in!
Why We Need This Reset
Life’s been serving up non-stop action, and sometimes it shows! Maybe you’re sleep-deprived, your skin’s acting up, or you’ve got a few extra pounds from those late-night snacks (no judgment!). A self-care day—or week!—is like a big hug for your body and soul. Think hydration, relaxation, and all the good vibes to get you back to your sparkly self!
Your Feel-Good Wellness Toolkit
Here’s my go-to list of 12 wellness tricks to recharge your battery. Mix and match these to create your perfect self-care vibe. Trust me, they’re total game-changers!
1. My #1 tip to Essential Wellness, Protect your Skin!
You all know how crazy my skin cancer journey has been. I found that staying on top of amazing care is at the cellular level, and I accomplish that by taking Sun Powder daily. It’s has all the essential vitamins your body needs to reverse the signs of aging, combat skin, cancer, and deliver the nutrients that your largest organ in your body needs on a daily basis to look young, and stand the test of time. Sun Powder is an amazing product! My Dermatologist, Dr. Chelsea Fadai introduced me to this revolutionary product about six months ago and I swear by it. It has a groundbreaking vitamin called Nicotinamide, that is a new vitamin that reverses the signs of aging, and fight skin cancer in its premature stages. Sun powder also acts as a natural sunscreen! It’s an amazing product and I highly recommend it. Here is the link to purchase.
2. Acupuncture and Cupping
Weekly acupuncture and cupping are my lifesavers! They’re like a detox party for your body, easing pain and inflammation. After a session, I feel brand new—energized and on cloud 9, a total euphoric high. Find a pro you that can make you feel amazing (shoutout to my fave, @dianeneedles!), and make it a weekly treat like me!
3. Bubble Bath Bliss
Nothing says “zen” like a hot bubble bath with Epsom salts! It’s my go-to for soothing sore muscles and chilling out. I whip up my own mix: equal parts Aromaesti Greek Lavender, Greek Lemon, and Epsom salts, plus a splash of eucalyptus oil. Light a candle, lock the door, and soak away the stress. Instant spa vibes!
4. Nature’s Magic
Spending time in nature is like hitting the reset button on your brain. A walk in the park or just staring at the ocean washes away all my worries. The fresh air, the breeze—it’s pure magic! Try a quick 30-minute stroll to feel refreshed and happy.
5. Turmeric Shots
Turmeric shots are my secret weapon for feeling alive! They fight inflammation, boost immunity, and even help with bloating. I’m obsessed with Vive Organic Fresh Press Turmeric Boost—one a day, and I’m ready to conquer the world!
6. Candle Glow
Candles are my mood-makers! A yummy-scented one, like VOLUSPA Goji Tarocco Orange, instantly lifts my spirits. It’s like a warm hug from my mom, who loved them too. Light one during your bath or while chilling—it’s self-care in a flicker!
7. Kombucha Kick
After a weekend of reliving my party girl days, Health-Ade Cayenne Cleanse Kombucha is my morning must-have. It’s spicy, it’s sassy, and it keeps everything moving smoothly. Sip one daily to keep your tummy happy!
8. Sheet Mask Obsession
I’m a total sheet mask junkie! Korean brands like Esfolio or The Creme Shop give my skin that instant glow-up. Pop one on in the morning or after a long day, and bam— instant brighter, fresher skin. Stock up and mix it up!
9. Under-Eye Rescue
Tired eyes? Under-eye patches are my savior! I love CALA Vitamin C + Collagen or even budget-friendly Nu-pore. Pro tip: slather on Concha Nacar Crema De Noche first for extra hydration. Your eyes will thank you, and your makeup will pop!
10. Moisturize, Moisturize!
Dry skin is no joke, but I’ve got the fix! Skin Trip Body Lotion smells like a tropical vacay, and Monoi Tiki Tahiti Vanille Oil is pure luxury. And don’t sleep on Aquaphor—it’s my lip (and sometimes nose!) lifesaver. Slather on and glow!
11. Hair Mask Love
Brittle hair? Not on my watch! Cantu Shea Butter or Aunt Jackie’s Flaxseed hair masks are my faves. Slather it on, pop on a shower cap, and sleep. Rinse in the morning for silky, frizz-free locks. Yes, please!
12. Mud Mask Moment
Clogged pores? GLAMGLOW Supermud is my pore-cleansing hero. It’s a bit pricey, but so worth it! Pop it on before a bath once a week, and your skin will be clear and radiant. You’re welcome!
13. Garden Therapy
Gardening is my obsession for chilling out and feeling grounded! Digging in the dirt, planting some herbs and flowers, and watching them grow is pure joy. It’s like therapy with a side of sunshine! I love tending to my little basil and lavender plants—snip some for your bath or kitchen, and it’s instant zen. Even a small pot on your windowsill works wonders. Get your hands dirty for 20 minutes, breathe in that earthy air, and feel your stress melt away!
Make It Your Own
Mix and match these goodies from my go-to wellness toolkit to fix whatever’s got you feeling off! You don’t need to tackle all 12—just pick and choose what vibes with you. Feeling achy? Book an acupuncture sesh. Need calm? Take a nature walk or soak in a bath. These are my faves, but you can customize them to cure what ails you for that major glow-up energy!
In A (Health) Nutshell
This wellness routine is all about loving on yourself. Listen to what your body needs—whether it’s a soothing bath, a zesty turmeric shot, or a candlelit moment—and go for it. You’ll walk away feeling refreshed, radiant, and ready to shine. So, grab your sheet masks, light that candle, and let’s get glowing, queen!
