January’s Conscious Covets
January and cold weather are here
And I’m all about staying warm and hydrated. I bought this pink hat in Paris and love how fun the color is now that we’re moving into grey January, not to mention it is also warm! Keep reading for what’s keeping me going this month thus far in the new year!
As I’ve gotten older, my skin has gotten dryer and more sensitive. Add in the cold NYC air and my skin definitely needs some extra love. This mask feels so good and really softens my face. I do it at night so it can stay on for a while, I then rinse it off and layer on a great night time moisturizer and I wake up with skin that feels softer and more nourished. A little goes a long way and I’d say that this jar is the perfect amount to get you through the winter months.
I’ve only been taking this a few days now but wow have I felt a difference in my sleep. Magnesium is a mineral most people are deficient in. There are different types of magnesium with different effects. This one in particular helps your body recover and restore for the next day. I mix it with a few ounces of water before bed, swish it down and hit the pillow. Definitely worth checking out!
This deck is great if you know you need to do more breathing to help calm your system but also don’t know where to start. My friend Biet put this together and it’s great for “breathers” of any experience! There is something for everyone and every feeling. I keep this by my bedside for breath work before bed and I could see it being a beautiful gift for someone.
I started this Friday night and am almost done and cannot stop reading it. Wow, what a story. It’s a heartbreaking memoir of addiction with incredible insight. I can’t recommend it enough!
Holy smokes is this movie good - Demi Moore is amazing. I watched this while lying in bed sick last week and it really makes you think twice about hating on yourself for aging. Margaret Qualley and Dennis Quade are so good too! Highly recommend.
If you love spray avocado oil for cooking and have been buying it at the store then THIS for you! I love this device - you simply pour in the avocado oil and it turns into a spray - without aeration. Not only do you save money by not buying more spray bottles full of avocado oil but you also save the environment with less disposable stuff going into our landfills. This would be a great housewarming gift to anyone who is setting up their healthy kitchen!
