Happy New Year Beauties!! I started off my year getting sick, yes New Years day nose running life a fire hydrant. So wellness has become an absolute necessity over the past week, and I will continue to incorporate these things into my weekly routine.
Immunity & Anti-Inflammatory Drinks
Each day I start by having hot water with lemon and honey to help with boosting my immunity, and mid-day I have an unsweetened Matcha with oat milk. Matcha is known to have anti-inflammatory effects, which is much needed when you are sick, and when I am unwell I avoid dairy like the plague.
Wellness Shots
For my health, I loaded up on wellness, immunity, and energy shots from Trader Joe’s to help give me a much needed boost towards wellness. This is definitely something I will continue moving forward.
Mindset
Regarding my mind, I have been reading the book, “You Are A Badass At Making Money,” by Jen Sincero. I am always reading something that focuses on mindset because our brain is a muscle that needs to be exercised, just as our body muscles. Reading this book was a reminder of how much our thinking can change our reality. What we believe we can do, we do, and what we believe we deserve we reach for. I consider this book a well written pep-talk for the reader, plus she writes as if she is speaking to you, and she adds in personal anecdotes to highlight important mindset points.
Body Care
For my body, I have been using the Lavender + Vanilla Aromatherapy line from Bath and Body Works. Bubble baths and bath salts are the go to self-care items for me. It allows me to relax and take a moment to pause. Alright, sometimes I pause other times I have my iPad on the side of the tub with either a sermon or TV show playing for that good ol’ multitasking entertainment. I got to be honest here!
For when I am on the go, but I still want a mini spa moment then I use shower steamers, also from Bath and Body Works. You get a nice burst of aromatherapy while getting ready in the morning. The other scents they have are: Eucalyptus + Spearmint, Lavender + Vanilla, and Orange + Ginger. You get 6 tablets in the pack and it is priced at $18.95, but I always stock up on these when they have the $5.95 all body care deal. Definitely a deal to look out for!
Y’all, get your routine in check and keep up your immunity! Let us have an amazing 2025!
Love ya girl,
Gabrielle
