Well, in February we had the pleasure of launching our debut 2014 Spring Collection. Our Sweet Escape this season takes us to the Kalahari Desert, Greece, Swaziland and Zimbabwe.
To kick off, Springtime - getting in shape before the summer...we've put together an 8-week challenge. We'd love you to join us. It's all about wellness covering mind, body and spirit. Check in with us every Tuesday for your "assignments," and hopefully by the end of the 8-week period, you'll be feeling rejuvenated, beautiful and strong.
There are four parts to the challenge:
Passport To Beauty: We started Sweet Escapes because we are obsessed with organic beauty and the amazing botanicals you find in Africa. So each week, we'll highlight some additional information and links about the ingredients we use and why we chose that destination. We'll also be sharing beauty tips, hair care and more.
Spiritual Meditations: Africa is not only the source of beautiful and amazing botanicals but also is the home of the world's oldest spiritual and religious traditions. Yes, every single one of the major religions originated there...believe it or not and we decided to explore the spiritual wisdom of the Afro-Shemetic Hebrew Book called Vayikra. In English it's known as Leviticus. Leviticus was written for the Hebrew priesthood, and it focuses on wellness and health. The spiritual wisdom there is often packaged in not so accessible form, but hey we're going for it. .
We also will be introducing some awesome contributions by a fab psychologist friend of ours. Stay tuned!
Sweet Escapes Fast Day: So fasting is a very important part of maintaining your health - it's a discipline that helps your mind as well as your body. Each week, pick a day that you'll fast - all you can eat of fruit, veggies and alkaline water. We'll be posting awesome smoothie recipes for our Fast Day each week. Take it as inspiration and go from there. If you are a meat eater - no meat on that day! And that includes fish.
Lori Says: We have a wonderful writer, radio-show host, a mother, a grandmother and an all-around beautiful woman who will be giving us loads of advice from a life beautifully lived - whether you are looking for Mr. Right or Married to Mr. Right...you'll adore Lori Says.
