Honey, Honey… an easy Ayurvedic face mask

For clear soft skin with a lot of sweetness.
Who said you’ve got to quit sugar after the holidays.  This simple face mask has the healing and sweet benefits of raw honey and turmeric and the goodness of fresh cream – if you’re vegan use some coconut cream instead.

Sip some warm tea, light a candle and take 5 minutes for yourself.  You deserve it. Relax. This ayurvedic inspired facial mask will feed your skin and prolong that happy holiday glow. Beware, this tastes delicious but try to save it for your face and not your lips 🙂

Ayurvedic Honey Face Mask

Ingredients:

  • Pure local (organic + raw) honey – 2 tbsp
  • turmeric – dried, 1/2 tsp
  • cream – 1 tbsp  – fresh from the top of non-homogenized milk / or plain thick yoghurt or coconut cream.

Mix thoroughly until smooth and pat onto your face. Raw honey is full of antioxidants and turmeric is both an immune booster and an anti-bacterial, while the cream will soften your skin and make it all glowy. Enjoy.

INSTA LOVE

 Hey there light beam. If you were ever in doubt of your own individuality, know right now in full truth, that you are a unique shining light-beam and you have always been shining your own unique brilliant light. Sometimes you may just have to let that brilliance re-surface. ********** Take some time as we move into the quiet of the New Moon to pause and reconnect to why YOU are HERE and take a read of my blog post titled: "What's your dosha?" how to understand your uniqueness from an Ayurvedic point of view. Link in bio!!! ********** Sending you divine lightbeams and quiet pauses this weekend. love + aloha. #wellness #wellnessblogger #ayurveda #ayurvedalife #modernayurveda #iloveayurveda #yoga #yogalife #yogamama #yogabliss #blissedandblessed #myyogalife #baliyoga #ayuryoga #insiyayoga #yogue #divinepurpose #holisticliving #wellnessinspo #doshas #prakriti #lightworkers #newmoon #breathe  This morning by the ocean. In the water I find coolness, sweetness and calm to balance out my fire  Is balance truly possible? With moment to moment awareness it is says Ayurveda. Check out the YOGUE blog for key insights on how to live more in flow and in love with your life... I am so excited to share this incredible healing work with you!!! Comments and questions always welcome!!! ✨ #myyogalife #breathe #bali #wellnessblogger #yogamom #vscocam #beachyoga #balance #ayurlife #ilovebali #blissology #baliblissology #blissedandblessed #ayurveda #ayurvedalife  @blissology #blissarmy #stretch #release #flow #health #canggu #canggucommunity  Sometimes you got to fake it til you make it... I don’t always feel like getting on my mat. But I know (inside) how much better I am going to feel if I do... my prescription: commit to a small (tiny) goal, like 5 sun salutations... move slowly, paying attention to your breath, taking your time. It’s what my husband @blissology calls stepping into the ocean ... once you realize how good it feels you want more and all of a sudden there you are - present in your practice... and yes some days it may only be the 5 sun salutations and that is just fine too... #iloveyoga #practice #tapas #suryanamaskar #yogaasana #yogue #myyogalife #yogamama #nostress #breathe #yoga #ilovebali #wellness #yogagirl #beachyoga #blissedandblessed #baliblissology #blissology ✨✨✨  @blissology
 Embrace to surrender... when we open up more to the heartbeat of life we also begin to feel more and begin to live more sensitively. And to be this in a sustainable way, we must know when to embrace life fully and when to be more still in a quiet place... I love the blissology yoga practice because we share the energetic qualities in the asanas as well as their anatomical building blocks with creativity and delight... here is an example: these two poses are a beautiful complementary pair/ pose 1: anjaneyasana or low lunge stretches the psoas + hip flexors. There is an awakening and lengthening of the entire front body that begins from the back foot pressing down into the earth, but from the rooting is that energetic lift up towards the sky - it feels beautiful open - a warm embrace of life - you cannot help but feel joy here. In pose #2 half splits or half hanuman asana the hamstrings lengthen helping to balance hip flexors + psoas. Here’s the sweet inward focus. This pose feels quiet, a moment of pause and allowing the ease and rest within oneself. You are not collapsing in any way there is an elegance here but it is a cooler quieter energy than pose 1. In life we need to cultivate all these aspects of ourselves and how amazing is it that our yoga offers this simple yet profound way in. Happy Friday the 13th. May your energies FLOW!!! #blissedandblessed #blissology #insiyayoga #ilovebali #iloveyoga #yogalife #yogaeverydamnday #yogue #lunge #anjanayasana #inspo #flow #breathe #yogamama #yogagirl #wellnessinspo #ayurvedalife #gratitude #asana  When I became a mother now 7 years ago, my whole world shape-shifted!!! Nothing prepared me for the incredible joy and bliss and huge outpouring of love I would feel toward our son; nothing also prepared me for the immense sacrifices I would encounter being a mama trying to raise our child in a way that doesn’t always fit the mainstream... in the beginning people told me “mothering” is your yoga. There is some truth here and this statement comes From a place of support and well meaning. But I am here to Tell you this is not the whole truth!!! Mothering and parenting is NOT YOUR YOGA unless you have even 5 minutes of YOU time for your own YOGA whatever yoga is to you - a physical practice, energy work or meditation and chanting... Wherever you are on your parenting journey make the time to fill your love and spirit well! Get a five or ten minute practice in. Go to a class as often as you can. Move, breathe and release. Honor your YOU time and yes rely on others to make this happen ie your village... It is essential to your showing up In relationship as a parent and a partner as your highest self. I was happy to share some of this work yesterday at @balispiritfest and it is inspiring me to write more on this topic! I would love your reactions to this statement!!! Pls comment. And for a 10 minute FREE flow yoga practice w me check out @fmtv_official With so much gratitude ❤️❤️✨✨✨ #yogamama #slowparenting #yogue #insiyayoga #yogateacherlife #blissology #globalyogis @blissology #yogaforlife #yogafamily #bali #baliyoga #yogaparenting #yogalife #iloveyoga #blissfamily #mothering #consciousmama #consciousparenting #wellness #relationship #wellnessblogger #thevillage  Embraced, entwined, connecting to source. ✨re-emerging from an offline weekend to a sleepy town in east Bali where we slept in a shack to the sound of the surf and snorkeled in what ananda calls our ocean aquarium. Ever notice how it takes a few days to down shift out of the hyper gear we drive ourselves around in? And how being offline helps so much??? More on this simple beach stay soon. ✨ this week bali friends I will see you @balispiritfest to share some nuggets of wisdom on how to bring more balance into our lives as yogis, parents and travelers of life from the timeless insights of Ayurveda... And no matter where you are, stay in the flow and hug a tree today!!! ❤️✨ #natureyoga #blissedandblessed #blissology #yogue #wanderlust #mamayogini #insiyayoga #baliyoga #balispiritfestival2018 #iloveyoga #wellness #yogamama #yogagirl #backbends #healthy #ilovebali #holisticlife #ayurvedalife  @blissology ❤️
 Some mornings it’s like this...  today while I sat, he asked me if I would watch his gecko (that he had delicately put on top of a lego construction); then he said something about his friends and school and finally @blissology and he ran to the beach... but I got a few slow, deep breaths and a moment of what @erich_schiffmann calls the sacred pause... and I am ready to face today w love... Sometimes 5 minutes is what you get. Make it what YOU Need ❤️❤️❤️✨ #blissedandblessed #momlife #mindfulmama #balilife #insiyayoga #practice #breathe #slowparenting #yogamama #blissology #iloveyoga #yogaeverydamnday #baliyoga #baliblissology #blissfamily  What's your dosha?
