good morning,
I"m trying to start my day in a positive way today. There are some of our friends here now that I have noticed are having such a rough time of it as of late, more than the norm. My heart goes out to them, it truly does. They are so strong, are resilient and they just have no idea the strength that lies within as we all read their posts. We all deserve a "time out", even if it's just a few minutes to pick up our feet and take a breather. So, I thought maybe we could all share some "at home" remedies we have come up with on our own, or know of that helps us feel "'better", "calmer".
I particularly like kava kava tea (it's inexpensive in the supermarket here) and when I'm in "flip out" mode a cup of that can really bring me down.
I also noticed that taking omega's 3's particularly fish oil (yes yuck) seems to help balance me a bit more than the norm.....
meditation works as well. I will literally do it wherever i need to now. In my truck, in my bed in the living room. Just shutting everyone off and going within and visualizing my calm place.
at home stuff i do when i have the time, because salon's and manicures' are no more since i'm not working........
i mix an egg white beat it in a bowl and put it on my face......i'm not sure what it does i think it minimizes my pores. also cucumbers on my eyes to help with swelling, and cold tea bags.
my hair, i have used a mixture of avacado and mayo in my hair and olive oil. also i rinse with a bit of beer (budweieser) from time to time keeps hair shiney.
ok well that's my deal.........
anyone else have anything that they use at home to make you feel better???
have a great day! i'm off to a garage sale to hopefully replace our coffee table kids broke. ugh.
