Full Moon in Gemini and Why Self Care is More Important than Ever

Hello Beauties,

I hope y'all had a lovely Thanksgiving and are finally feeling a little more peace as we roll into the holidays with Mercury going direct last weekend. Tonight is the last Full Moon of the year in Gemini. It is also the last supermoon of the year. It will appear larger than usual and will be putting a spotlight on our nervous systems, our thought patterns and how we care and speak to ourselves and others. 

Gemini is all about connection, conversation, exchange of ideas and allows for a different perspective of what we initially thought we wanted or needed. If you have been feeling more inspired and ruminating on ways to create more light and magic into your world, this is the time to make it happen. Get clear and have the courage to spring over the chasm that has been holding you back from becoming who you have always wanted to Be in this beautiful world. It is time to jump while gently caring for yourself and align with what feels true to you. Feel the freedom that it brings up.

Eighty percent of autoimmune disorders happen to women because we suppress our feelings since we are taught and conditioned to be pleasant and happy, regardless of how it affects us. We are compelled to do for others before we consider ourselves and tend to take on other peoples problems because we "think" we "need" to "fix" it, regardless. This is why it is more important than ever to practice self care and support your well being in all aspects and discovering what YOU need or what lights you up, without guilt. 

Everyday when you first wake up, give thanks for this life you get to experience. Then slowly and lovingly do inventory on what your system needs and what you want for your day. Take time in the morning to go for a walk or sit in the sun to activate your immune system and melanin production with your bare feet on the ground with your tea or coffee. Let mamma Earth take everything that needs to go and feel your system respond to the love and care you are giving yourself. You can also do the big 6 lymph drainage to get your system flowing for the day at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lT_wW5pNHa4. It is remarkable how it will respond for you throughout the day.

As your day progresses, whatever you are doing, breathe through every moment and notice what regulates your system and what doesn't. What energy you allow, whether it be people, environment, or food and notice how it responds.

Self care is not just washing your make-up off at night, it is tuning into your system on every occasion by relaxing in meditation while watching the sunset. Self care is enjoying a meal you cooked for yourself and eating it slowly, feeling it nourish your system. Self care is taking yourself out for lunch, taking a nap in the middle of the day or a long luxurious Epsom salt bath. Self care is looking at yourself in the mirror naked and telling yourself how beautiful you are. Self care is booking a facial to give your entire system a relaxing reboot allowing someone else to care for you while you rest. 

Facials are often thought of as cosmetic treatments versus self-care. They help improve circulation, provide relaxation and relieve stress by stimulating the body's natural healing abilities. It sends signals to your brain that you're doing something good for your body and skin, releasing oxytocin, It also releases tension in your mind, creating a better sense of awareness while allowing clearer thinking. You are worthy of all this and more.

If you've had a treatment with me, it is so much more than just a facial. In all my Holistic Facials I stimulate the meridian points in the face sending calming signals to the part of the brain responsible for dealing with stress and processing emotions like fear and anxiety. I work on relaxing the entire system as well as enhancing the skin's appearance. Anxiety and poor mental health can exacerbate skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and roacasia. Positive mental health = good skin. 

When we look good we feel good. It is more important than ever at this time to keep your system relaxed and malleable. You can do this by booking an appointment that will also help energize your system and jump start your self care practice at https://www.cnbessentials.com/book-online

During this season more than ever, you deserve all the love you give to yourself. When you love and value yourself with your whole heart it radiates out into the world. It is a vibrational energy that is astounding to participate in. Self care is the same vibrational frequency as money. Sit with that for a bit.

Please feel free to send this along to anyone you feel would benefit with some self care or purchase a gift certificate for a treatment for yourself or someone you love that would appreciate some skin care love. https://www.cnbessentials.com/gift-card

Enjoy this beautiful Super moon this evening. Reflect on what you want for yourself and how best to care for your system that benefits you as well as your loved ones during this holiday season.

Much love, gratitude and so many blessings,

Colette
