Give your body a treat at home

Wednesday is Wellnessday 🙂

Are you getting tired of everyday life? All those daily tasks, care about kids, job, household work, etc. You’re not alone. Don’t worry, it’s not that you’re a bad mom, wife or woman. It’s just that our bodies have some limits and we try to get past them. And if we give us some treats, we’ll be more productive, usefull and satisfied of ourselves.

So there’re some simple steps how to do that.

𝟏.𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐚 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤

Free some time only for yourself. Not with husband, not with friends, parents, siblings etc. Just you and yourself. Choose the day when your kids are not at home or when you can leave them to your friend or family for a couple of hours. Or simply send them to the playground with daddy 🙂

𝟐. 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭/𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐬

Here’s a list with ideas:

Home/factory made face mask
Face peeling
Lips scrub
Home/factory made body scrub
Anti cellulite cream
Use handheld massager
Do your manicure (take a look for budget option here)
Do yoga or stretching exercises

𝟑. 𝐀𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐲

Whatever you chose, fill the home with relaxing scent. It could be candles, sticks, oils… I prefere lavander candles but there’re many scents you can choose like chamomile, mandarin/tangerine, jasmine, vanilla, rose, lilac, etc.

𝟒. 𝐑𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐱𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜

To release from stress you should give all your sensory organs what they like. To ears it’s a melody with no lyrics. It can be sound of wind, rain or birds. There’re planty of free apps with meditation music or you can find some on Youtube.

𝟓.𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬

It’s not less important than the others sensors. I usualy treat them with a glass of wine. If the alcohol is not on your list make youself a cup of tea with lemon and honey. I like green tea because of its antioxidant.

In this days everyone has to find a way of getting rid of stress. Life happens too fast, our body couldn’t deal with it if we don’t recharge our batteries. Be calm they say, don’t yell at your kids they say. But how when you are on the edge of nervous crisis. You are stuck between the idea for a perfect professional and a perfect parent. And here comes the moment when you ask yourself how to deal with it. There are many ways and I choose SPA.

I choose SPA because it’s the best way for relaxation. First, you can get tired at the gym and then enjoy in thermal water pool or have some hydro massage. Just find a comfort spot in the shallow pool, sit down, close your eyes and listen to that enjoyment music.

𝑾𝒉𝒚 𝒄𝒉𝒐𝒐𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑺𝑷𝑨?

1. 𝑭𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒂𝒈𝒆𝒔

It prevents the onset of wrinkles directly and indirectly. SPA procedures stimulate the skin cells and hydrate the skin. On the other side, you de-stress and relax. And that’s a great anti-aging therapy.

2. 𝑩𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒔𝒍𝒆𝒆𝒑

Many of massages can lower your blood pressure and relax the muscles. It leads to better night’s sleep.

3. 𝑯𝒆𝒍𝒑𝒔 𝒘𝒆𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒍𝒐𝒔𝒔

The hot procedures open up the skin’s pores and toxins come out of the body. The deep tissue massages help getting rid of fats and cellulite.

4. 𝑹𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒆 𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒐𝒕𝒐𝒏𝒊𝒏

Serotonin is the hormone of happiness. At the end of the massage serotonin levels are higher and they last like that few days. Indeed, massages help to improve your mood.

5. 𝑰𝒎𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒔 𝒊𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒏𝒆 𝒔𝒚𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒎

Sauna improves immune system by increasing production of white blood cells. They fight against infections.

6. 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒘𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒔 𝒇𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒓

The infrared sauna encourages development of elastin and collagen. They make the skin smoother and wounds healing faster.

7. 𝑷𝒂𝒊𝒏 𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒇

Saunna should be part of every sportist’s life because it reliefs muscle and joints pain.

Less known things about newborns’ teeth health

Yes, you read it right. I wrote it right. Newborn’s teeth health. Every mom wants only the best for her child. But there are some things that are less popular about the teeth of the newborns. They’re not in the mouth but they’re inside the jaws. The teeth are not ready to erupt. The body still builds them.
What you should know about the milk teeth? There are 5 very important things.
1. These teeth will be in your child’s mouth around 6-10 years.
2. They’re important for proper chewing, speaking and mental health as well.
3. Their proper erudition is directly related to the way of feeding your baby
4. The primary dentition determines how the jaws develops.
5. The right jaws development is important for the right alignment of the permanent teeth.

Infant Here I’d like to talk about the ways of baby feeding. There’re two ways: breastfeeding(natural) and bottle feeding. Why is it important for its teeth?
When the baby is breastfeeding it has to suck a lot. Scientists says that it helps teeth to erupt on time. Also, you should know that it’s not good to let the baby fall asleep on the breast. Feed it active no more than 15 min. Don’t let the baby fall asleep with the baby bottle, too. Baby’s jaws grow and develop fast and it could cause some deformations like open bite.
If you feed your newborn with bottles there is one very important thing you should know. The shape of the soother meters. It has to be type NUK. They’re anatomically near to women’s breast so they won’t cause the deformations. The second thing is that you’re NOT ALLOWED to widen the openings. They should stay as a factory set. The idea is that the baby got to suck the contents of the bottle, not pour it into its mouth.
This topic is very broad, I’ll continue in my next blog posts. If you have any questions feel free to post them in the comments. If you thing that kind of posts are helpful for you, please let me know and subscribe for my blog.

Manicure hack saves a lot of money

As I told you in my introduction blog I won’t tell you what to do and what not to do. I’ll tell you what I’ve done.
I was studying abroad so my budget was restricted. Anyway, I wanted to have fancy manicure just like other girls but I couldn’t effort it. So this is when the bulb lighted up. I had an idea. I found UV lamp on aliexpress for only $5. I bought base, top and 2 colors gel nail polishes, each for $1.5 and an electric nail drill for $4. And that’s it. I started doing my manicure at home. My colleague didn’t even believe that I make it by myself. And you know what? I’m still doing it. Yes, I don’t like to spend money for my manicure. I do it by myself with a little difference. I buy more expensive nail polishes because the once from Aliexpress are low quality.
This is one great way to start saving money because keeping your manicure always in maintained is an expensive thing.
