Winter can take a toll on your skin, leaving you feeling dry and flaky. But there are some great moisturizers available that will actually nourish your skin without all the toxic chemicals. And one of our favorites is shea butter. An extract from shea tree nuts, this rich and luscious “butter” contains an array of important fatty acids and beneficial vitamins that are not only incredibly healing but are anti-inflammatory and have anti-aging effects on your skin. But before you decide to take a bath in it, you might try combining other skin-nourishing ingredients with your shea butter to keep it from feeling heavy on your skin. You can even mix up your own soothing facial mask, like this one: 1 Tbsp of raw honey 3-4 drops of grapeseed oil 1 Tbsp of pure shea butter Mix well and apply to the entire face. Leave the moisturizing mask on for 10-12 minutes then gently remove with warm water and a soft washcloth. Recipe from: https://www.healthline.com/health/shea-butter-for-face#how-to-use

Did you know that washing your face at night is an anti-aging hack? 🧼 Here are 4 great reasons to wash your face every night! 1. Your face is exposed all… day… long… to dirt, debris, the oils from your hands, and so on. So don’t take that dirty skin to bed – wash your face every night! 2. Eliminating the daily build-up of oil and other contaminants means you will be less prone to acne breakouts. When you wash your face before bed, this will help to unclog your pores and allow your skin to breathe throughout the night. 3. Not washing your face means your skin has to fight a bit harder against the topical toxins and debris that can accumulate. These free radicals can break down healthy collagen, leading to fine lines and wrinkles. No thanks! 4. While you sleep, your skin is hard at work doing loads of repair overnight. Washing your face before bed and using a quality moisturizer will provide a nourishing barrier, keeping your skin protected all night long. When selecting facial care products, be sure to find ones with clean ingredients. Check out Kari Gran if you’re looking for something new!

Tummy troubles? We’ve got simple remedies for better digestion. Bitter herbs and apple cider vinegar can help alleviate digestive discomfort and promote a healthier gut. Plus, they're easy to incorporate into your daily routine.

Your faith can increase longevity, but we just didn’t know how until now... According to the researcher and author Dan Buettner, “People who pay attention to their spiritual side have lower rates of cardiovascular disease, depression, stress, and suicide, and their immune systems seem to work better… To a certain extent, adherence to a religion allows them to relinquish the stresses of everyday life to a higher power.” - Dan Buettner, Blue Zones
Did you know that kids raised on farms have a lower risk of developing eczema, allergies, asthma, and infections? In 1989, Dr. Strachan proposed a novel theory: Children who were raised on farms or lived in rural areas were less likely to have allergies or skin conditions such as eczema. He believed that having exposure to a wider and more diverse variety of microbes from farm animals, playing outdoors, getting dirty, gardening, etc. would result in healthier children overall. And he was right! Children who lived in urban areas and did not have the same microbial exposures were more likely to have allergies, eczema, and weakened immune function. Fascinating, right? I’m curious... were you a ‘farm’ kind of child or did you live in a more urban environment? Here’s where you can read more about it: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5758418/
