Hello Followers,

Happy Hump Day!

Wednesday is a day to help others celebrate life.

You and only you are accountable for what you extend and give to others.

One smile not only increases your value, but it gives joy to each person you meet.

Let us continue to discover how peppermint can improve your well-being.

Mint green vibes best with peace, joy, and calm.

It is time to dive into the incredible health benefits of peppermint and explore easy ways to incorporate it into your lifestyle today.

So, again do not underestimate the power of spices and herbs in promoting health.

Say goodbye to tension headaches and migraines with the soothing power of peppermint.

As a natural muscle relaxant and pain reliever, peppermint oil can reduce discomfort when applied topically to the forehead and temples.

 In one randomized trial involving migraine sufferers, participants reported significant relief within two hours of applying peppermint oil compared to placebo treatments.

Whether you are dealing with occasional headaches or chronic migraines, peppermint may offer much-needed relief.

KNOWLEDGE IS A TREASURE, BUT PRACTICE IS THE KEY TO IT

DID YOU KNOW!

Getting older does not have to mean losing your memory or mental sharpness.

A recent study found that older women who walked more and did moderate-to-vigorous physical activities daily had a noticeably lower risk of developing mild cognitive impairment and dementia.

Specifically, every extra 31 minutes spent in activities like brisk walking lowered the risk by 21%, and taking nearly 2,000 additional steps per day cut the risk by 33%.

This is huge because dementia starts developing quietly long before symptoms appear, sometimes 20 years earlier.

Since there is no cure, prevention by staying active becomes critical.

The study used high-quality activity trackers worn by women aged sixty-five and older to get accurate data on how much they moved and sat each day.

Interestingly, more sitting did not increase dementia risk, but the amount and intensity of physical movement did.

Most of these women averaged around 3,200 steps daily and spent about 45 minutes on moderate-to-vigorous activity, like brisk walking or gardening.

The takeaway?

Even moderate exercise and simply moving more can protect brain health and delay cognitive decline.

Taking just a few minutes to listen to this guided meditation can be a powerful reset for your mind and body.

This meditation gently helps you let go of stress, tension, and negativity, while filling your heart with a deep sense of calm and positivity.

It is the perfect way to reconnect with yourself, restore emotional balance, and invite light and joy into your life.

Even one session can leave you feeling renewed, centered, and better equipped to handle whatever comes your way.

Until Thursday, summers are about all things minty mint.
