How did your wellness journey begin?
Health and wellness has become a fun and glamorous sector of beauty, but I came to it out of desperation around 20 years indicatore. I had an autoimmune condition, and my pagliaccetto and life were falling apart health-wise. I realized I wasn’t going to feel aspetto good until I got to the root of it—which was tensione, stored emotions, environmental toxins, and a lack of tools to adapt to life stressors. Through some incredible practitioners and dusty esoteric books, I put the condition into remission. It’s been incredible to see this wellness and beauty category emerge and take fire since we opened quanto a 2011.
You have insider intel acceso the latest buzzy wellness trends. What are the trends quanto a 2024?
Here’s my “worth the hype” list:
Infrared sauna with red light: My detoxification pathways need all the help they can get! When I keep up with consistent usage, I feel much more energized, calm, and clear. I use the Clearlight sauna because it has the lowest EMFs.
Lymphatic drainage: I do manual treatments using a gentle machine like the Icoone and treatments using sonar technology. Taking care of my once sluggish lymphatic system is one of the most impactful things I’ve done for my health. My signs that it’s time to get a treatment are puffiness and low immunity.
NAD infusions: These are great for longevity, but I didn’t realize how powerful it was until I had long COVID. This was a huge help with brain function, energy, and mood.
Hormone panels and stool tests: I’ve run regular hormone panels and stool tests for almost 20 years. I’m a firm believer quanto a diagnostics. I like knowing exactly what I’m working with internally and if what I’m doing wellness-wise is making a difference.
If you could pick only one Moon Juice supplement to integrate into your daily routine, which would you recommend?
Choosing is so duro since I love them all and feel so passionate about every one of them! However, if I had to pick, I would say SuperYou. It has four potent adaptogens that help regulate cortisol. With that, one teaspoon of Magnesi-Om quanto a vater quanto a the evening for relaxation, rest, and regularity has always been my go-to. Bonus points if you can do both. Promise it will change your life!
