Personal Hygiene and teens: The importance of getting my girls into a skincare routine

November 23, 2018.Reading time 7 minutes.

When I was a teenager I don’t remember having a skincare routine. In all honesty, I’m pretty sure I passed out without washing my face most nights of the week. The thing is, I suffered from acne and my skin breakouts were horrible. I also felt like they were embarrassing, and this really impacted my […]

You know it’s December when... 🎅 . . This is one of our family traditions to kick off the holidays. Sadly Jada and Charles were working. They totally missed out. 😆 Did you make it out to the parade this year? #telussantaclausparade @telus #telus_partner
This holiday season I’m dedicated to mindfully gift-giving 🎁 in a way that creates lasting memories and ultimately less waste. 🌍 If you’re looking for some ways to create memories this holiday season or you would love some ideas on how to gift-give in a way that creates less waste @metrovancouverbc Create Memories Not Garbage Initiative offers many resources online including how- to videos on recycling your Christmas tree, and wrapping paper so it doesn’t end up in the landfill. In addition, they created a Merry Memory Maker which helps you with thoughtful gift-giving ideas this holiday season. (Link in bio) At the end of the day, it really boils down to whatever is beautiful to you, whatever is meaningful to you, and whatever brings you happiness and joy. May it help you style the inside of your life & others this holiday season. ❤️#ad #creatememoriesnotgarbage #stylingtheinsidepartner

For those of you asking how school has been going... Well, if I’m being honest, some days it feels like my brain is going to burst!! And sometimes I get triggered and the “not smart enough” feelings that have been with me since childhood come up. I tell myself things like, “why didn’t you just pay attention when you were a kid? “Why did you have to be so “cool” in high school aka: skip so much.” “You’re not smart enough for this”. Going back to college and receiving your Early Childhood Education Diploma was so much easier” & “Going back to school to become a counselling therapist was a stupid idea” Sounds HARSH right? But this is what a trauma response can sound like! . . When this happens I notice myself procrastinating and avoiding the work. However, when I practice being present with the feelings instead of trying to numb them it helps me become curious about what they’re trying to teach me. Which then leads me to understanding. Understanding that my brain wasn’t retaining what it should have when I was a child, because my nervous system was trying to keep me SAFE aka: I was in survival mode. And then... I practice acceptance. Accepting that going through this experience as a child wasn’t my fault. Which then leads me to a feeling of gratitude for the pain I endured when I was a child and adolescent because it brought me to my purpose. ❤️ . . And that my friends, is the real work. The work that isn’t going to get me a diploma or a degree or external measures of success. Instead it’s getting me to a place of self-compassion and healing which is truly invaluable🙏🏻. . . So there’s my long, “styling the inside” answer to your question, friends. 😆 Thank you for following along on my being back in school as a “mature student” journey. Now I’m taking a break from social for the weekend because being mindful, present & resting help me keep this bubble from bursting. 😉
There's no better feeling than when your daughter falls asleep on your lap in the comfort of your own home when she isn't feeling well...and you feel at ease and can simply let her rest because you know you don't have to worry about getting her out of the house to a doctor or walk-in clinic because of...virtual doctor calls right on your smartphone! 🙌🏻 . With Babylon by TELUS Health you can look up symptoms in the Symptom Checker, schedule a video call with a BC-licensed doctor, and even get a prescription filled and ready for pick-up at the pharmacy of your choice! And, rather than trying to remember all the details from your virtual visit, you can simply access your consultation notes and video playback and also have them shared them with your regular family doctor. You can also create profiles for all your family members so everyone’s health can be managed in one place. Did I mention that its available 7 days a week, including evenings and holidays? This has been a game-changer for our family and truly helps us style the inside of our lives. I'm sure Charley appreciated being able to fall asleep on me rather than me driving around the city trying to find a clinic that's open on the weekend! . Have you tried the Babylon by @telus TELUS Health app yet? #telus_partner #telushealth
MERRY 🎄HALLOWEEN 🎃🤣😆
