Lemon Livens Up Your Life
It is easy to take the humble fruit of lemon for granted. Think about it. How many times have you heard someone proclaim lemon as their favorite fruit? As a kid, I know I used to love eating lemons raw. But then again, I’m just an unusual person all around…so I’m told. As an adult, I have come to appreciate lemon in all its capacities. But my love for lemon did not truly flourish until I became an herbalist. Through my studies and practical uses and applications on lemon, I kept finding more and more to love about lemon.

Modern Lupercalia
The word February is derived from the Latin word Februum, which means purification. In Roman times (possibly before), the festival of Lupercalia was observed in Rome to avert evil spirits and purify the city, causing health and fertility to be released. Another term for this festival was dies Februatus, named after the instruments of purification called februa.

How to Make an Oxymel
An oxymel is like a tincture; it's just not made with alcohol. They seek to extract, through maceration, every part of the plant material it can and concentrate it so you have to use less than what you would if you were to use the whole herb itself. Alcohol, vinegar, honey, and vegetable glycerin are the most common to use in this way and alcohol extracts the most types of plant compounds. The oxymel is made with a blend of honey and apple cider vinegar. It’s an extremely effective way to ingest the properties of the plant or formula of plants that you choose. They are actually a lot easier than taking a tea for quite a few herbs, you’ll find some are just terrible tasting, and you may find that you enjoy the oxymel if you like the taste of vinegar. Think salad dressings. Oxymels are pretty versatile little concoctions!

Tips To Select The Best Hypnotherapist In The USA
When it comes to finding the best hypnotherapist in the USA, it is important to do complete research. Weigh all the potential options and then decide which therapist will be best for you. Even though there are multiple benefits of hypnotherapy, but selecting the right hypnotherapist is the first step towards gaining substantial results. Certain hypnotherapists specialize in psychoanalysis and focus on your childhood traumas while others specialize in your current situations and help you accordingly through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT. While there are certain hypnotherapists who have additional certifications and specializations in other fields of therapy such as NLP or Neuro-Linguistic Programming.

Don't Lose Sleep Over Sleep
Whilst walking with a close friend recently in Richmond Park (socially distanced of course), he hardly ever sleeps through a night. In fact, he said that he wakes up about six to seven times per night. How is it possible to function as a rational human being with such terrible sleep deprivation? (perhaps that explains a lot about this friend!!).

The 8 Areas of Wellness
At uPOW (Your Pursuit of Wellness), our main mission is to provide guidance on your personal journey of wellness. While wellness presents itself in many forms, we have identified the 8 fundamental areas of wellness as being: Physical, Intellectual, Professional, Social, Financial, Spiritual, Romantic, and Creative. These areas may seem independent but they are intersectional and often affect each other; if you are neglecting a certain area, then there’s a good chance it will negatively impact another area. Now that we’ve established the 8 areas, let’s take a closer look at each one individually.
