Herbs in any form are going to be helpful not just in keeping up your health, but also in helping you heal during illness. Herbs are infused into a variety of products these days, but I tend to gravitate towards decoctions/infusions (various “teas”), and tinctures.

Bouncing, and just generally shaking the body as a whole, is a great practice when it comes to moving stagnant energy. This concept isn’t uncommon within different schools of Eastern thought, but sometimes people from the West feel silly moving their body in ways that feel silly. This is a social construct, and carefree movement actually does wonders for the soul! And if you’re that person who feels silly or judgmental when it comes to embodied movement, then that’s all the more reason to incorporate some free flowing motion in your life. Even just light bouncing can help shift your energy in a way that can help you move through emotions or other heavy energy.

Hello all!

*check out my corresponding video on IG @agua_mama_ to see all of the items!*Incorporating health-conscious alternatives into your household starts small and grows over time. For me, this looked like buying a bamboo cutting board to replace our plastic one!

While many of us know about heart health, and the benefits of steady state cardio on healthy aging, not many of us realize that progressive building the strength of our other muscles is also right up there in importance. My husband and I are pretty passionate about this topic, as most individuals we meet aren't properly exercising (or eating) to meet their health or fitness goals (instead going based off of generic advice). One person might hit the gym for far too many hours and days, not understanding that muscles are built during rest. While another might be doing an immense amount of cardio, thinking it'll help them lose weight (when the real issue is metabolic). 

Hello!

Women's health is a subject that is dear to me, because it took some major time and growth for me to recognize how I had deeply deprioritized it within my own life. As a human, I am sensitive to any and all hormonal changes that occur in my body, and it has wrought havoc on my physical and mental health - especially without proper guidance on how to handle it all.

Although we've had our home system running for some time now, I wanted to take a small trip down memory lane and explain how I was able to install it for those who might feel overwhelmed by the whole process. 😊
