Checking In Part 1

As we're in the midst of spring, it's important to check in, to see if the activities we do throughout the day and the things that we put into our body support good health.  In years' past, I've taken this time to do a mini fast - just three days of drinking herbal teas, water and hot lemon water with honey.  It was a time of checking in, slowing down, only doing those things that were really important in maintaining my house and family.

In the next couple of weeks, I'll post a series of information from our website about how you can support your health.  Lucidia is really helpful in cleansing the body and strengthening the immune system, but it's up to you to take responsibility for your lifestyle and nutrition.  To learn more about the ways to support good health during the allergy season, visit www.Lucidialife.com.
