Used up some things yesterday and made another juice which turned out really good ! This combo is essentially an anti‑inflammatory, antioxidant, gut‑supporting, circulation‑boosting juice that can help energy, immunity, and blood sugar balance when used alongside an overall healthy diet. It will not “detox” or cure disease on its own, but it does pack a lot of supportive nutrients and plant compounds. 2 Carrots 🥕 1 medium size beet 🫜 1 Lemon 🍋 1 chunk Ginger root 🫚 1 piece Tumeric root 1 apple 🍎 1 teaspoon Ceylon cinnamon 2 cups coconut water coconut 🥥 💦 1/2 cup raw honey 🍯 Mix all ingredients in blender, strain & refrigerator 28-72 hours ! I drink early morning My color is a lighter color due to my beets Chioggia Beet are naturally striped. Some are a subtle yellow-and-orange combination while others come with a brilliant red-and-cream candy cane effect. Use them as you would other beets, and know that the stunning striping usually fades or even disappears when the beets are cooked. I have two small jars of the paste after straining! This will be used into smoothies, my husband spreads on toasted artisan bread or homemade bagels . Adjust to your own items , amounts etc

A positive mindset can turn your whole day around — and a simple kind gesture can do the same for someone else. It doesn’t have to be anything big — a smile, a compliment, holding the door, or even just checking in on someone. Those little moments of kindness can lift spirits more than we realize. Let’s spread a little more light today! ✨ What’s something kind someone has done for you lately that made you smile?

This aggressive perennial colonizes disturbed areas, forest edges, riverbanks, and nitrogen-rich soils, often forming dense, impenetrable patches. Its serrated, heart-shaped leaves grow in opposite pairs along square stems, and the entire plant is covered with tiny hollow hairs that inject a painful, stinging compound on contact. Just brushing against it causes an immediate burning sensation that can last for hours. Most people give this plant a wide berth and curse it as a painful nuisance, yet this same "weed" is one of the most nutritious and medicinally valuable plants on earth, prized by herbalists for thousands of years. ✨ Traditional Uses: • Young spring shoots have been cooked (cooking neutralizes the sting) as an incredibly nutrient-dense wild green, rich in iron, calcium, and vitamins. • Folk healers have brewed the dried leaves into teas to support seasonal allergies, acting as a natural antihistamine. • Traditionally used as a powerful spring tonic to "build the blood" and restore vitality after winter. • Applied topically (carefully!) or in liniments to ease arthritis pain and improve circulation to sore joints. ✨ DIY Folk Remedy Recipe: Nourishing Spring Tonic Tea Gather young leaves wearing gloves (or use dried from a trusted source). Pour 1 cup of boiling water over 1-2 teaspoons of dried leaves. Cover and steep for 10-15 minutes, then strain. Drink 1-3 cups daily as a mineral-rich, allergy-supporting tonic. This earthy, slightly grassy tea has been a cornerstone of traditional spring cleansing for generations. 👇 Drop your guess in the comments, who knows this "weed"?

This quote beautifully reminds us that self-love is the foundation for transformation. When we nurture our mind, body, and spirit with kindness and care, our energy shifts — and everything around us begins to reflect that. True wellness starts from within, and as we honor ourselves, we create space for deeper balance, beauty, and connection in our lives. Here are some simple steps if your just beginning. We are all in our journey and at different stages . Let’s not compare ourselves to each other as we are all unique. Mirror kindness • Stand in front of a mirror, look into your own eyes, and say one kind sentence to yourself (for example: “You are doing your best, and that is enough”). • Do this once a day, even if it feels awkward; over time it softens self-criticism and builds acceptance. 2. Three things I like • Take a notebook and list three things you like about yourself (qualities, not just looks). • Repeat this a few times a week to gently retrain your mind to notice your strengths instead of your flaws. 3. Love-letter journaling • Write a short “love letter” to yourself, as if you were your own supportive friend. • Include appreciation, encouragement, and compassion for what you’ve been through and who you are becoming. 4. Mini self-care pause • Schedule just 5–10 minutes a day for something that feels nourishing: stretching, breathing, tea, a song you love, or sitting in silence. • Treat this time as non-negotiable, a small daily act of honoring your own worth. 5. Gentle affirmation practice • Choose one simple affirmation, like “I am learning to love myself,” and repeat it slowly several times in the morning and at night. • You can also write it on a sticky note where you’ll see it often, letting it replace some of your old critical thoughts.

There is a growing trend of people declining to touch receipts after learning about what they are coated with and how it transfers through the skin. Many thermal paper receipts are coated with bisphenol A (BPA) or bisphenol S (BPS), chemicals used for heat-activated printing. These can be absorbed through the skin, raising health concerns like endocrine disruption. Some people avoid handling them for this reason. Has anyone else heard about this?
