First off, it's literally the glue that binds us together, making up 30% of the body's protein and 70% of the skin's protein! But as soon as we hit our 20's, our levels start to decline (about 1% each year) which is why it's one of the top causes of aging...think fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin AND also the reason that it's increasingly popular in supplements & skincare products! ⁠

Don’t let product packaging fool you! Some companies label their products in a way that convinces people they are more environmentally friendly, healthy, natural, free of harmful chemicals, and recyclable. For example, Green Works by Clorox uses words like “naturally derived” to trick the consumer into thinking they are buying a product that has natural ingredients, but the label tells us a different story. Switch to safer and check out one of our preferred products: @betterlifecleanhappens! ⁠…

Sunlight is an essential element of a healthy & happy lifestyle, but many of us don't get the amount of daylight we need to reap its benefits. Our recommendation? Consider ‘light therapy’ with a product like the HappyLight by @verilux!⁠

Our brain’s chemistry and body clock are affected by light which stimulates specific hormones and neurotransmitters that greatly influence our overall feelings of well-being. Bright light exposure early in the day stimulates our body's production of serotonin …

Known as the "Queen of Mushrooms," reishi has been revered for thousands of years and historically used in Asian countries for health and longevity. It was so highly regarded that it was once reserved only for royalty and the rich upper class! We love how supportive this mushroom is in lowering cortisol levels, supporting hard-working adrenals, and reducing stress, which is why it was used in China by Taoist monks and sages for cultivating spiritual energy, calming the mind, and transforming n…
