2020 is the year of beauty and balance! After the holiday indulgences, January invites us to embrace calm and simplicity—a fresh reset to recharge, cocoon, and emerge stronger. Rest assured, we skip rigid resolutions; instead, we champion year-round joy, guilt-free indulgence, and genuine self-care.
Launch into 2020 with our three-part episode series, brimming with detox inspiration for nutrition, lifestyle, and beauty rituals.
Welcome to Episode #3: Your guide to a detox and wellness lifestyle, drawn from time-tested practices.
This classic ritual deeply purifies the skin while carving out precious self-care time. Slip into your coziest loungewear, light candles, and queue up soothing tunes. Boil water in a large bowl, then stir in rose hydrosol, 2 drops of tea tree essential oil, and 2 drops of rosemary essential oil. Position your cleansed face over the steam, tent a towel over your head, and inhale for 5-10 minutes. Follow with a hydrating mask for 20 minutes, then seal with a refreshing tonic and nourishing beauty oil for luminous results.
Celebrated in Ayurvedic traditions for its softening and toning powers, sesame oil nourishes body, hair, and nails. Each morning, apply via a invigorating 5-10 minute massage before showering. Awaken your body gently—your skin will feel softer, smoother, firmer, and more supple.
In our fast-paced world, intentional pauses recharge the soul. Carve out daily or weekly moments to listen inward: savor a book with tea, practice home yoga, sketch, or cook mindfully. These simple rituals quiet the mind and restore peace.
Extensively researched for their transformative effects—from calmer minds and slower heart rates to toned bodies and glowing skin—meditation and yoga are wellness essentials. Start with just 10 minutes daily to melt stress and build resilience. For more guidance, explore Holissence and Claire Andreewitch's blog.
