My Word for 2023!

 


Hi Dolls, 

I hope 2023 is starting off well for you all. I didn't plan on my first post of the year to be in late February, but you know how it goes...life (as good as it is) gets in the way. 😉

If you've been reading my posts for a while, you may know that I choose a new word or affirmation that sets the tone for my year. I really like that it gives me something to reflect on and to work on through out the year. 

This year, I was torn between two words, which were consistency and grace. I thought long about it. Then, I started thinking that on my most stressful and busiest days, I ask myself “what do I need most from myself today?” The answer is usually grace.

I also thought about how I am with others. I try my best to give others the benefit of the doubt, but sometimes that doesn't always happen. Usually when you're hard on yourself, you're hard on others. I know this because I experience this myself. So, my goal is to let go of being a perfectionist and to not be so critical of myself and others.  

This year I plan to give myself more grace, and my goal is to extend that same grace to others. So, it’s only fitting that “grace” is my word for 2023. 

️If you have a word or affirmation for 2023, please share.

Well-Being: A Better Night's Sleep

  Hello, Dolls A good night's sleep is something I've been chasing after for years. Like many people, my nights can be chaotic. Not to mention, I've been suffering with insomnia for years, yes years.     It takes me a while to unwind and fall asleep, and when I finally do, I wake up several times throughout the night. I’ve taken several sleep aids and remedies through the years. I've tried teas, linen sleep sprays, over the counter and prescription aids, and almost every lavender night time product out there. Some were helpful at first, but after a while, I think my body got immune to it. So, I was very curious when Highline Wellness gifted me a bottle of their CBD Night gummies. I was skeptical at first, but they’re really working for me.  The melatonin helps you to fall asleep, and CBD helps you to stay asleep. I’m able to fall asleep faster, and stay asleep longer. An added benefit is I don’t wake up the next morning experiencing grogginess like I’ve felt with ot...

Creme of Nature Lemongrass and Rosemary Leave-In Conditioner Review

After promising myself to take better care of my hair, I read in a hair care magazine that if you have breakage or dry hair (like my hair) to consider purchasing a leave-in conditioner, since you don't have to rinse it out-the conditioner keeps on working and conditioning your hair. This was perfect for me because I'm really lazy when it comes to styling and taking care of my own hair... usually I look for products that are easy and quick to use. I do use Creme of Nature's Detangling shampoo, so I figured I would buy their leave-in conditioner. FYI- Creme of Nature is a brand that specializes in hair care products for women of color, who have natural or relaxed hair. They mostly use natural ingredients in their products, which they call "Certified Organic." Product Claims "Pamper your hair with this creme-based formula to soften, detangle, and provide the ultimate conditioning.  Perfect for color treated hair, organic  Lemongrass works to tone and hig...
