How to bring more mindfulness into your life

“Surrender to what is. Let go of what was. Have faith in what will be.” ~ Sonia Ricotti I’ve been on a mindfulness “journey”, for lack of a better word, for a few years now.

There are quite a few morning rituals that I look forward to, every single day. Dry brushing happens to be one of my favorite ones. I mentioned dry brushing quite a few times in the past, but I never went into too much detail- which is why I decided to write this post. Dry brushing has been a part of my routine for years and I can’t believe I’m just sharing my love for it now. EXFOLIATION This is probably…
