When I feel a little under the weather, I usually

When I feel a little under the weather, I usually go easy on the exercise, try to get more rest and up my vitamin C intake. I also keep my Flugon Fizzy effervescent tablets close by. The combined formulation of herbal ingredients and other vitamins and minerals gets to work at the first sign of a cold or flu to help lessen the severity of symptoms.

I love that Flugon is non-drowsy and contains herbal ingredients. It also provides year-round immune support when taken daily throughout the year. It tastes great too! What’s your go-to remedy to combat colds and flu?

What do you do when you have Load Shedding during

What do you do when you have Load Shedding during the 8-10.30 pm slot?

Well tonight, we’ll have that slot 😩 it is literally the worst time for me. But I’m going to make the most of it… Earlier in my IG stories, I shared a bit about the Esse Experience facial I had @amanispas last week and the amazing results. I am so impressed with Esse products right now and I’m excited about my skin returning to its natural wild state. I am all about the probiotic life and to think my skin is now being boosted with it … is just magic 🪄

Kurt is now also on this bandwagon after I gave him a little facial using my Esse Sensitive cleanser and toner, serum, eye cream and nourish moisturiser. It is really such a divine experience, I don’t blame him & such a treat when it’s load shedding!

When I first read the words on this t-shirt, I imm

When I first read the words on this t-shirt, I immediately thought of Naomi Osaka and the recent events. I have all the RESPECT for her vulnerability and recent bold decision to withdraw from the French Open and prioritise her mental health.

With her having such a huge platform, I think it it will encourage others to speak out about their own experience and prioritise their own mental health instead of suffering in silence. It’s also an example to all of us to take mental health more seriously. We never know what the next person is going through, so be kind. Naomi isn’t the only one who has shared their story, there are many others who have too & it gives others hope and know that it’s ok to ask for help.

With last month being #mentalhealthawarenessmonth @connectablelife sent me this T-shirt with these very powerful few words. Words have the power to change thoughts and thoughts have the power to change the world 🌎

Give @connectablelife a follow for therapy and wellness advice 💚

So it happened again and again… I burned my mout

So it happened again and again… I burned my mouth drinking a cup of coffee.

I think it’s because I don’t have any milk in my coffee which means I am basically drinking boiling hot water. I also clearly don’t have the patience to wait for it to cool down 😅

But… I had @andolex_za Oral Gel by my side this time and my mouth was feeling back to normal in almost no time. The gel definitely numbed the pain and took away that sensitivity. I apply about 1cm of the gel to the affected areas and I don’t eat or drink anything for 15 minutes. The gel can be applied up to 12 times a day if needed!

So impatient coffee lovers like me, keeping this in your handbag or on your desk is a really great idea I think! The gel can also be used for sore gums, mouth ulcers or any other mouth irritations.

For more product information please visit www.andolex.co.za or speak to your healthcare provider. #AD
