Skin Tips
Exfoliate! Exfoliate! Exfoliate!
Get the most out of your skincare. Make sure you exfoliate regularly to get the best levels of absorption from your skin oils and moisturisers - if it has to fight through layers of dull, dead skin cells to get to your body it will be exhausted by the time it arrives and won't do the best job, wasted product and wasted effort...
Holland and Barrett offers
Holland and Barrett are doing their buy one, get one half price thing and whilst I don't really take vitamins, I'm loving their flaxseed and pumpkin seed products with Goji berries and sunflower seeds mixed in - there's even one mixed with cocoa for the chocolate lovers. So sprinkle some on your porridge in the morning nand stay full til lunch time - in a healthy way....
NEW VEG
Over the weekend, find a vegetable or fruit that you have NEVER had before - then try to find a Detox recipe for it....variety is the spice of DETOX LIFE!
Sugar substitutes
I have had a request regarding the use of various syrups ie Rice and Agave for sweeteners. YES is the main answer, but in moderation is the subtext. The request came from a 'detoxer' that is trying to find a way to make cakes that are 'detox legal'
My first answer is to maybe try to live without cake for the 30 days.....but by all means, try to find a way to make delicious detox cake as a much healthier option when your programme is complete
Detox is about getting new habits as well as 'spring cleaning' your system, so maybe 30 days without cake, will mean you reduce your 'need' for them afterwards....maybe a teaspoon of honey mixed in yogurt and drizzled on lightly roasted fruits with some star anise for flavour....could be the healthy 'sweet tooth' solution for your future???
So, thank you to Christina Diedrichs for your question and well done! on your detox.....
