Hello Followers,

Thank goodness it is Friday!

Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.

Make the most of today.

Life is like riding a bicycle.

To keep your balance, you must keep moving.

Life is not about finding yourself.

Life is about creating yourself.

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

Lavender fields are nature's way of saying everything will be okay. 🌸💜

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

According to research in the journal Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, there are several methods of using lavender to soothe anxiety and stress.

The natural organic compounds in its leaves and flowers can be ground between the fingers and then rubbed onto the temples.

This topical application can soothe the body and mind by relieving anxious thoughts and balancing the mood.

Apart from this topical application, you can also brew lavender tea and achieve much the same effect.

The antioxidant components in it can impact on the endocrine system to lower the levels of stress hormones in the body.

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

DID YOU KNOW!

Did you know that your body regenerates every 35 days, making new cells from the food you eat?

This means that every meal you consume has a direct impact on the health and structure of your body.

If you feed yourself with nutritious, whole foods, you are literally creating a healthier, stronger body.

The quality of the food you eat shapes the way your cells function and renew themselves.

Fruits, vegetables, and whole grains provide essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that your body needs to repair, build, and grow new cells.

When you fill your plate with processed foods or sugars, you are giving your body the wrong building blocks.

By choosing nutrient-dense foods, you ensure that your body is constantly replenishing itself with what it needs to thrive.

The saying, “you are what you eat” is true on a cellular level.

Every time you choose to eat clean, nourishing foods, you are contributing to the regeneration of your body.

Start making mindful choices and remember that each bite you take today is shaping your health tomorrow. 🥦🍓

USE YOUR SENSES TO SUCCEED

Skates and rays are fish with an ancient lineage, and like sharks, have skeletons made of cartilage not bone.

Most live close to the sea floor, and several have sensitive receptors near the snout and mouth that pick up electrical pulses from animals buried in sand, which they can dig out and eat.

The enormous manta is different, swimming gracefully through surface waters to eat up plankton.

Many skates and rays can grow very big, like the common skate, you may find an enormous egg case, nearly eight inches long, washed up on a beach in spring.

These are known as mermaid’s purses from which a young skate will have hatched at sea.

Take a peaceful pause from your day with this gentle 10-minute guided meditation that guides you into presence through mindful breath and awareness, helping you reconnect with yourself and the quiet space within.

Until Saturday, purple blooms, brighter moods; lavender works wonders. 🌸💜
