✨ Feed Your Skin Like You Feed Your Belly ✨

Your skin gets hungry too! Just as your belly needs nourishing foods, your skin craves them as well. The truth is, most of the things that are good for your body are also great for your skin.

Sometimes it’s as simple as reaching into your kitchen. 🍅 A slice of fresh tomato rubbed on your face. 🥛 A little powdered or evaporated milk for a glow mask. ☕ Coffee to scrub away dullness. 🌿 Turmeric, ginger, oregano, and even honey mixed with sugar for that natural polish.

Of course, avoid overly spicy things like hot pepper (ata rodo) on your skin. But with the right balance, your kitchen can become your beauty lab.

When you glow from the inside, balance it by glowing from the outside too ✨🌸

This is a great option for kids with focus issues!

Sour candy can literally help stop a panic attack.

According to mental health experts, the intense flavor acts as a grounding technique—its sharp, jarring taste pulls attention away from overwhelming thoughts and into the immediate physical sensation.

This redirection can help interrupt the cycle of spiraling anxiety, bringing individuals back to the present moment. Additionally, the act of chewing and the surge in saliva production may support the body's calming response, offering a sense of control during distress.

While not a cure or replacement for therapy, this sensory-based strategy can serve as a quick, practical tool in moments of high anxiety. As noted by experts cited by Utah State University, sour candy can be particularly helpful in grounding exercises used during panic attacks. However, they caution that frequent or intense anxiety should always be assessed by a healthcare professional to ensure appropriate long-term care.
