Welcome to Julie's Wellness Wonderland Blog
Let me introduce myself. My name is Julie and I am a 36 year old Brit living in London and a Mother of 3. I have a passion for well-being and loving life! However, I haven’t always been like this! In the past I had no care in the world, didn’t have my priorities straightened out and I was a bit of a rebel. One day it clicked, there is more to life and there is always a silver lining. But we can get more into that later.
I really took an interest a few years ago with my health, physical and mental. It’s apparent that in todays day and age, there is a lot more awareness on wellbeing, what we can do to improve it and what affects it. Trust me, I have read a lot of books, followed yoga pages on Instagram, and listened to many meditation podcasts. Everyone is different and may take on different things better than other people to take the steps to stronger wellbeing altogether. I think every little bit helps, even if its reading a little blog from a first timer trying something new. So join me on my blogger journey and lets get WELL!
Get Your Glow On: Dry Brushing before shower for Summer-Dazzling Skin
Discover the benefits of dry brushing for summer-ready skin! This ancient technique involves using a natural bristle brush on dry skin to exfoliate dead cells, revealing a smoother, glowing complexion. Dry brushing boosts circulation, giving your skin a rosy, vibrant look. While it doesn’t detoxify your body, it can temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite. Follow these steps: start at your feet and brush upwards, use circular motions on your torso, be gentle on sensitive areas, and finish with a shower and moisturiser. Perfect for a refreshing self-care routine, any time of year!
If your clothes don't fit, get yourself a sauna
Saunas can aid in weight loss by burning calories, reducing water retention, lowering cholesterol, and detoxifying the body. They also help boost immunity against colds and flu. However, saunas can be risky for individuals with certain health conditions, so consulting a doctor is essential. Insignia's home saunas offer a convenient way to enjoy these benefits without the need for a gym subscription.
