What’s the most important thing for you when it comes to beauty? ⬇️ ⠀ A: Cruelty free B: Organic C: Overall quality D: Just how it looks on your skin ⠀ Truly, mine is a pretty even combo of all of the above. I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately on how i can wear lash extensions & spray tan when I’m all about healthy/natural living. The answer is: balance my friends 💕
Its as simple as this: everything you eat is either nourishing you, fighting disease, giving you energy, and making you glow... or doing the exact opposite. Everyday you choose 😌 ⠀ PS - How beautiful is plant-based food? 💕 If you want to know what’s on my plate leave a “💕”
Do you ever feel bloated or uncomfortable after meals? If so, I have a tip for you 🤗 ➡️ Try sticking to warm, fresh foods over cold foods. This includes drinks, snacks and meals! Explanation below: ⠀ Food needs heat in order to be digested ("digestive heat" or "fire"). When you're eating cold food, it has to be heated up by your gut more than warm food (warm/cooked food is already warm and ready to be digested) 🔥 This is much more work for the digestive system, which causes it to use up a lot of its energy, and weaken over time. ⠀ NOTE - I am not saying to totally avoid cold food, especially in the hot weather! But if you feel like your digestive system is weak or not optimal, give this a try and see if it helps :) ⠀ Questions? #guthealing #guthealthmatters #digestivefire #askdrmona #summersnacks
I love you guys for leaving all that positivity and gratitude on my last post 💕 So as promised, Q&A TIME! I’ll answer your wellness / beauty / skincare questions that are asked in the next 2 hours ☺️ ⠀ I really like these q&a‘s in the comments because so many of you have told me you read through other people’s questions and my responses - so you get way more out of this than one DM question. ⠀ Ok - GO! 👩🏻‍⚕️ #askdrmona
QUESTION - What’s one simple pleasure that makes you happy? I like getting to know you guys! ⠀ My advice: If something makes you feel good, do more of that thing 🙂 Sitting at a nice cafe w/ my laptop sipping iced matcha makes me happy 👩🏻‍💻🍵 (... then I’m in a good mood all day... then I have more #gratitude... and it’s just an entire positive wheel that keeps spinning). The point is, GO OUT OF YOUR WAY TO FEEL HAPPY. It’s worth the effort. ⠀ SO - whats that little thing that makes you happy? ⠀ ⠀ #matchatea #lunching #labloggers #wellnessblogger #plantbasedlife #treschic
So this has been a pretty intense week for me, I’m on day 6 of 7 of a pretty hard detox. I haven’t been sharing, because it’s my first time doing it, and i wanted to make sure the experience was 100% authentic :) It’s called Panchakarma- have you heard of it? ⠀ It’s a full body detox: GI, blood, circulation, mind... it’s intense but amazing! I’m feeling better already, but also pretty worn down. ⠀ Do you have questions on detoxes? Leave them below! Let’s chat in the comments :) ⠀ ⠀ #panchakarma #bodydetox #fullbodycleanse #mindbodyandsoul
