Product Spotlight: Golden Turmeric

 

We LOVE Golden Turmeric in our house. Have you tried it yet? My favorite thing is to make a latte(recipe below) before I start winding down for bedtime.

INFLAMMATION & EMOTIONS

Everyone knows that chronic pain is exhausting both physically and emotionally. The same can be said of chronic inflammation as well. Chronic inflammation from injury, diet or other illnesses are like tiny fires within our bodies, and our systems are running to put out the fires all the time. Our emotions follow suit - running and running and running until we are at empty.

Modern science is researching this connection as well! Studies show that chronic stress is associated with increased inflammation, depression and negative emotions, attention changes and even dampened immune responses. Which is just even more evidence that we need to take small, daily actions to give our bodies all the things it needs to thrive! Learn more

Make a Turmeric Clay Mask (adapted from Hello Glow):

  • 1/2 teaspoon Golden Turmeric Powder

  • 2 Tbsp flour of choice or ground oats

  • 3 Tbsp full fat yogurt or milk

  • A few drops of honey

  • 3 drops Manuka essential oil

  • 3 drops Frankincense essential oil

  • Mix flour, turmeric, honey and milk to make a paste. Add essential oils. Apply a thin layer to your face and let it dry for 10-15 minutes (see below for guidelines). Rinse and scrub gently to remove.

  • While the powerful antioxidants present in turmeric impart that vibrant yellow color, be aware that this same color can stick around a little too long. A good rule of thumb to follow is the one minute rule — if you notice no discoloration after sixty seconds, leave on for another four. Test again, and keep it on all the way until 10 or 15 minutes, which should be the max for most products and at-home solutions.
