Look, it’s not that I am against medications or medical interventions.

There are so many safe and effective products that I do use, too!

But as much as possible, 

I want to make sure my body is given the best chance it can to be its best self - because actually our body, as well as the nature around us, is incredible!

Like, remember how we all rush outside at 10 am trying to get morning sunlight to build our immunity and avoid covid? 

I’m talking about these kinds of things!

There are simple and natural things that I prioritize before taking supplements and lab-made vitamins, 

Just because I think they are as good and important!

It’s as easy as getting enough sleep. 

Making sure I drink enough water.

Plating a well-balanced and colorful plates, and carefully considering macro nutrients. 

Incorporating exercise (yesssss unfortunately we have to :’))

Letting sunlight in - for our health & for the hygene of our homes too!

Washing my face 2x if needed (to avoid acne).

Watching caffein & sugar intake. 

Mindful reading. 

Less stress. 

The last one has been the hardest one for me. 

I can feel all the stress & anxiety hormones releasing. 

BUT keeping a routine and to-do list, 

And making sure I ‘recharge’ my battery daily & weekly is sooo important and helpful. 

It’s not grand and expensive. 

It’s about doing the small and simple things, 

& being smart with my time, energy, resources, 

before resorting to additives. 

But hey, look,

I’m only 26. 

I’m pretty sure in the next couple of years, I might say something different, 

And in dire need of something stronger to help me cope with the long days! 

Lol.
