Living a Detox Lifestyle - Health, Wellness and Beauty

As you most likely know, today is a new moon solar eclipse. It’s the first eclipse of 2016, March 8th and 9th depending on your time zone. This is a powerful time for change. The moon is at its closest approach to earth and has a stronger effect on tides, and our bodies and emotions. So, it’s the perfect time to cleanse and purge all that is not serving you and set positive intentions… fresh start… new story begins. I’ve always been fascinated by celestial bodies ever since I was a little girl and look forward to days like this....

If possible, you should get to sleep by 10 p.m. and stay in bed until 6 a.m. I know that sounds difficult for some; jobs etc..out of the house before 6 am. When we reach the pre-menopausal years.(35 and over) and into the post menopausal years, it becomes paramount that you get enough sleep. Hormones are made during our sleep,...
