Superfood Shot
“The acai berry is a rich purple palm fruit indigenous to the Amazon rainforest. For hundreds of years, these small dark berries have been integral to the diet of native Amazon people.” It is nicknamed the “Beauty Berry” because of its high antioxidant and Omega fatty acid content which have both shown to slow ageing by fighting damaging free radicals and boosting metabolic and immune function. I recently started adding a shot of this to my daily fruit smoothie; I have more energy, even more upbeat than usual, and find it really helps boost my health, especially during the winter months.
In every moment resides a gift :-)

ZZZ
For me January is the month to reboot & recharge my body from the busy year that has ended, and down time is crucial during this period. I love induldging in a relaxing bubble bath at the end of the day with Drift Away Milk Soak by Life. It smells divine and leaves your skin silky soft. For maximum calming effects light a candle, read a book and stay in for at least 20 minutes.
