Holistic Wellness Over The Holidays
Maintaining holistic wellness practices over the festive period can often be a challenge. With so many social activities, getaways to plan and Christmas shopping to do, it’s not surprising that healthy eating, self-care and exercise fall by the wayside.
To help keep your mind, body and soul nourished over the holiday season, here are our top 5 tips.
Keep Moving
Our exercise plans tend to go out the window with the arrival of the festive season. Whether you are jetting off on holiday or have the whole family coming to stay, it is often difficult to fit in a much-needed workout. If you can’t hit your favourite yoga class or a session at the gym, try and change it up with fun family and friends activities, whether bike-riding, beach volleyball or a round of cricket in the garden.
Elevate your Beauty Ritual
The holidays can often wreak havoc on our skin with so many celebrations and indulgences. Consider your skincare goals for the season. Perhaps you want glowing party-ready skin or a nourishing treatment to hydrate thirsty skin? Updating your daily skincare ritual by adding an essence, serum, or treatment can give you the perfect boost to reach your holiday skin goals.
Stay Hydrated
Because HA is so powerful, you only need to have one skin care product in your ritual that contains it to see the effects. At Jurlique, our skin care products are natural-based, using botanical extracts grown on our biodynamic* farm that are carefully chosen for their skin-loving properties – including some plants that are known as nature’s answer to hyaluronic acid:
With so much merry-making, mulled wine, festive cocktails and glasses of celebratory bubbles, it is easy to become dehydrated. To help, start the morning with a glass of cold water with lemon and ensure you drink up to 2 litres of water per day.
Remember that dehydration can also take its toll on the skin, so this is the time to up the ante on your hydrating skincare rituals. Think hydrating mists, serums, lotions, creams and nourishing overnight masks and treatments.
Book a Spa Day
The festive season can often deplete our energy, leaving both mind and body exhausted. If this is the case, it’s often best to leave it to the professionals. Book a Nature’s Spa By Jurlique spa experience and indulge in a signature facial, nourishing body treatment or treatment package for head-to-toe relaxation and rejuvenation.
