Turmeric: nature's skin softening calming brightening angel ingredient! Add a pinch to organic yogurt or raw honey or red clay for an at home face mask that will make your skin very happy!!
What's the one thing you can do to drastically improve your skin doesn't cost too much money at all? Drink more water! Your body is so thirsty and one of the big culprits of skin and balance is the body's dehydration. It can take many forms and cause many symptoms but there is one solution.... Generally speaking, without taking into consideration any existing dehydration or nutrient deficiencies, you need about 1 liter of clean fresh water per 50 lb of body weight a day. Now I know that sounds like a lot and it is... that's how much water your body needs to thrive, not just to prevent severe dehydration, but to thrive. You want to be in Thrive mode for beautiful skin. So this very well could mean that most of us need two to three or even more liters of water a day (especially for active people, or those drinking alcohol or caffeine.) Stress can also dehydrate the body as can mineral deficiencies so that's important to keep in mind too.

Now that you know how much water you need, where do you get it? I highly recommend staying away from bottled water that comes in plastic containers as there may be xenoestrogens lurking that can overload the body. Get a favorite metal or glass container (preferably 1 liter or bigger) and carry it with you everywhere. Fill it with clean water and if you're using reverse osmosis water you're going to need to add in electrolytes. I added the ones I use to this photo to show you because I use reverse osmosis water in the home. You'll need about 6 drops or so for every 16 oz so you can do the math on that. I also really like to add in a little bit of lemon or a drop of lemon essential oil because that covers any of the taste of the minerals. It's delicious!

Adding the minerals back into the water ensures proper absorption of the water so that you stay hydrated and it doesn't just go right through. 
I hope this inspires you to drink more clean water and if you haven't already add some of those minerals back in! This also makes it more alkaline for the body! So you don't need to spend a ton of money on plastic bottles you just need some mineral drops to add to your already clean water.
Decaf or tea for me...but yes!

Set those goals sky high and go slay 'em! Because....what else are you gonna do with your time? ;) I've never met anyone who succeeded the very first time they attempted a lofty goal. Success comes from falling and failing over and over and refusing to quit...even when the hot tears of frustration are burning and you feel like throwing in the towel. We all feel like that. We all fall and fail. We all have shit days. Don't give up on your dreams though! Theyre your dreams for a reason. The world is destined to be blessed by you achieveing them. 
Cheers to all those working ladies out there kicking ass...and cheers to those crying in frustration. Let's do this!
Took a break from work to take this little lady (and the pups) to the beach so she could scream sing the Moana song to the ocean. 
I love how she just slips right into her imagination the second she sees an opportunity.

Any other working Mama's out there? Doesn't it feel amazing to break the normal schedule and spend some quality time with your little ones?
“There are always flowers for those who want to see them.” Henri Matisse

This morning, while reading (listening on audible) my current book: The Law of Divine Compensation, I really sunk into the author's words about how easy abundance is. How it's everywhere. We are literally surrounded by miracles all the time and are out into each other's lives to help each other live our best lives. A flower doesn't need a complex plan to bloom. It blooms. It doesn't worry if someone will stop and appreciate it. It gives it's fragrance unconditionally. 
I think I need to be the flower. 🌼🌼🌼 Anyone else feel me?
