Facials, Exfoliation, Toning & Moisturizing<\/h2>\n

To prevent your hands from becoming dry and flaky due to frequent hand washing, here is a quick recipe for an at home exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and restore moisture:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Pour 1 cup of sea salt into an empty glass container
\n\u2022 Add \u00bd cup of Coconut oil (or Grapeseed oil or Olive oil) over the salt
\n\u2022 Add 5 to 7 drops of your favorite essential oil, we recommend Lavender for the
\nultimate relaxation<\/p>\n

\"\"

For a full body exfoliation (do not use a salt scrub on your face as it is too abrasive), remember to take a proper shower first, and wash yourself then apply the scrub on wet skin and rub in circular motions. Rinse off and pat dry your skin without rubbing.
\nEnjoy your rejuvenated skin!<\/p>\n

If you do not have essential oils at home, you can enjoy this DIY exfoliation.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Pour 1 cup of sea salt into an empty glass container
\n\u2022 Add \u00bd cup of Coconut oil (or Grapeseed oil or Olive oil) over the salt
\n\u2022 Place 5 to 10 mint leaves into a food processor, add the zest of one lemon
\nand then process
\n\u2022 Stir the mint and lemon mixture into the oil and sea salt<\/p>\n

If you have sensitive skin, you should consider a sugar scrub instead of a salt scrub. Sugar scrubs have smaller granules than sea salt and are less abrasive for your skin.<\/p>\n

\"Spa

Once a week, we recommend doing a mini facial at home. Add a mask to your daily facial routine (face wash and face exfoliation). Before applying the mask, we suggest cutting two slices of cucumber to gently place on your eyes during the mask to help with puffiness and dark circles. Remember to keep your cucumbers in the refrigerator. After you remove your mask, apply a daily serum and moisturizer and you will feel rejuvenated after spending 15 minutes consciously nourishing your skin.

Take a Deep Breath, Exhale and Feel What Happens<\/h2>\n

Mindful breathing can provide focus, calm and joy and is a great way to start the day. Your breath will be used as an anchor for attention. When your mind wanders, bring it back to your anchor, your breath, in order to sustain focus at will. Feel the sensations of breathing, air coming in and out of the nose, your abdomen rising, then exhaling, your abdomen falling. Use the phrase In and Out to support your attention.<\/p>\n
