This autumn VOYA want you to wrap up in luxurious self-care and feel healthy, energised and with glowing skin, not just physically but also mentally. Autumn is a glorious time of year, with it comes to cooler air flows, beautiful golden crisp sunsets, the days get that bit shorter and we spend more time indoors. This year lets focus on our wellbeing and protecting ourselves and others.
IMMUNE BOOSTERS
SEAWEED BATHING
As seen in Vogue, VOYA’s Lazy Days seaweed bath is the ultimate way to experience VOYA. Once immersed in a hot bath, seaweed will naturally rehydrate and spring back to life, releasing its soothing and moisturising properties. Seaweed baths have been used for generations in the care and repair of the skin and have shown to help against signs of ageing and cellulite. Known to remineralise the body, seaweed works to hydrate and moisturise, while also working to detoxify and remove unwanted toxins.
IMMERSION IN NATURE
Walks or runs in the autumn are always a wonderful way to feel grounded, and instantly renewed. Get out into nature and feel instantly refreshed with fresh air, also the exercise will do you good! This is not a time for full hibernation it is a time for rejuvenation and balance.
SEASONAL FOODS FOR STRENGTH
Stay nourished with seasonal foods that are available and fresh. Buy foods that are in season. Due to the change in temperature you are more likely to get sick this time of year. Hit up those herbs and spices, start making some soups, broths, and roots! Turmeric, garlic, and ginger are excellent for balancing you and maintaining health and wellbeing.
