]]>Listening to music that you love can help get you in a great mood in no time. Playing some tunes in the morning will give you a natural mood and energy boost. It’s particularly effective if the music is upbeat and something you can have a little dance to.
It may sound a bit unpleasant, but there is lots of evidence to suggest many benefits of showering in cold water. It will definitely wake you up, and while it might feel a bit grim during the shower, you’ll feel fresh and revived afterward.
This simple activity will warm your muscles and get your heart pumping, boosting your energy and giving you some endorphins. Make sure to stretch before and after to look after your muscles and joints.

]]>The fashion industry is one of the major polluters in the world, and most people tend to spend lots of cash on new clothes. Next time you go shopping, try saving your money and the environment by buying only what you really need.
Bottled water is another thing we tend to spend a lot of our money on and it’s also extremely harmful to the environment. You can avoid this and save money by carrying a reusable water bottle with you.
Turn off the lights and unplug your TV, computer, and other devices when you don’t need them because this can significantly reduce your energy bill.
Most people are not aware of the amount of food they throw away on a daily basis, and the truth is that we throw away nearly half of the food we buy. That’s why meal planning and making grocery lists is the best way to reduce food waste.

]]>These funky looking plants are renowned as some of the hardest to kill, and for good reason. They can handle low light, don’t need watering constantly, and are pretty self-sufficient. They also can grow to impressive heights, and add some stylish greenery to any room.
These stunning plants can be placed in hanging pots, or put with a climber. They grow quickly and liven up any room with their bright leaves. They also don’t need much light, and spring back quickly if they do get a bit dehydrated.
These lovely tall plants are also fairly easy to please. They do want some light and regular water, but aren’t too fussy about this. It’s a good idea to trim any yellow or brown leaves to keep it healthy.

]]>Kefir is another exciting fermented food that helps the gut microbiome, and with a few simple ingredients is easy to make at home.
Firstly you need kefir grains which can easily be bought online. They are living organisms, so need to be ‘fed’ to keep going. For the best results, use organic full-fat dairy milk, as this contains the enzymes needed for the kefir-making process.
Put the milk and kefir grains in a large non-metal container, and cover with a cloth and elastic band. Keep at room temperature for roughly 24 hours. Placing this mixture in the fridge will halt the fermentation process.
When ready, strain using a muslin cloth. The strained liquid can then be used immediately, or stored in the fridge. Add more milk to the kefir grains, and leave for another 24 hours.
Once this becomes more familiar, you can play around with the milk to kefir grains ratio, as well as the timing, to get your desired result.

]]>When we’re too close to something, we’re not thinking clearly. After hours, days, months, or even years of being unable to solve a particular matter, sometimes the reason is that we’re way too close to it. We’re so deeply entrenched in the problem that we’ve actually become the problem itself. Or, better put, we’ve mentally immersed ourselves into it.
But when you take a proper step back, everything changes. Taking a step back can be done in a multitude of ways, depending on the specific problem at hand. But it basically requires you to feel like you’re taking a break from it all. You need to stop thinking about it, and do whatever you can to forget about it for a considerable period of time. Once you’ve finished your break, you can then come back with a rejuvenated mind, body, and soul—and you’ll be 100 times more equipped to solve the issue.

]]>This is a tough one, but trust us, it’s a game-changer. Do you ever find yourself scrolling for a few minutes before bed and then suddenly it’s 3 a.m. and you don’t know how you got there? If you have a no-phone-one-hour-before-bedtime rule, this will be a thing of the past. Also, without the blue light, you’ll fall asleep much faster.
This is a no-brainer. If you want to wake up earlier, you have to go to sleep earlier. Waking up early shouldn’t mean losing out on sleep. It’s all about shifting the hours that you do sleep.
Have a habit of waking up and immediately checking your notifications? Try to do something else when you first wake up, like journaling or stretching. This gives your mind time to wake up before dealing with the world!
Plan something every morning that makes you excited to wake up, whether that’s your morning matcha or dancing along to your favorite song while you make breakfast!
Natural light is super important because it tells our bodies to wake up. Open those shades as soon as you wake up, so you’re not tempted to go back to sleep.

]]>The post Natural Fragrances to Liven Up Your Living Space appeared first on My Daily Magazine - Art, Design, DIY, Fashion and Beauty !.
]]>Whilst natural beeswax or soy candles are an option, more people are choosing to turn to package-free, raw, natural scents. Whether these aromas are released through burning, zesting, steaming, or simple air exposure, bringing nature inside can have a truly positive impact on your mental and physical health. Read on for some natural scent inspiration!
A common ingredient in sustainable, environmentally friendly candles, you can unleash the scent of beeswax in more subtle ways in your home. Buying a block of 100% natural beeswax and placing it on a table or centerpiece will allow its scent to gently infuse the room. Similarly, keeping bars of beeswax soap in your bathroom will provide notes of the calming fragrance, without being overwhelming.
A classic, with good reason. The fresh, floral scent of lavender is well-known for promoting feelings of calmness. Simply put a few fresh sprigs in a vase without water, and allow them to gradually dry out. Alternatively, using lavender-infused products in your home, such as soap and shower gel, will enable you to benefit from the peaceful, sleep-enhancing aroma all over your living space.
One of the greatest smells of the kitchen is freshly grated lemon zest. If you are dining alfresco, bring a lovely touch to the table by placing a small plate with curls of orange and lemon zest in its center. Not only do they look pretty, but they will also release their fresh citrus scent and bring a real sense of summer joy to your gathering. You can also dry lemon peel in the oven (bake at a low temperature for ten minutes, checking regularly) and keep the pieces in a bowl or display glass. An aesthetically pleasing, gently scented decoration.
Other ways of bringing nature’s fragrances indoors include bringing outdoor potted plants inside for short stretches (particularly effective if they are flowering), or roasting nuts in a honey and cinnamon blend which will leave your kitchen smelling heavenly for hours. Whichever way you choose to do it, the next time you’re about to light that scented candle, consider opting for a ready-made natural fragrance instead.

]]>If you want to join in with the fun without going full-on fuchsia, use these ideas to bring a little glitz and glamor that won’t look out of place in the office.
Deep magenta or ballet-slipper pink, the choice is yours. Depending on the shade, pink nails can look sophisticated, girly, slick or even grungy. You could even imitate Robbie’s recent manicure, which saw a base of pale lilac with funky fuchsia on the tips!
Not for the faint-hearted, pink eyeshadow can look a little intense for a weekday. In clips from the Barbie film, Robbie is seen wearing just the faintest rose-gold shimmer, a subtly glamorous and gorgeous look.
Last but not least, you can always opt for a classic pink lip. There is a pink lipstick shade to suit everyone, and it can feel less ‘business’ than a full-on red lip. Channelling your inner Barbie is meant to be fun, after all!
