If you experience muscle pain to your back, legs, or shoulders, a fire cupping massage can be a way to help. Chinese medicine uses cupping alone or as part of an acupuncture treatment. See more about what cupping can do on our blog. http://elementsofwellness.net/2015/11/04/cupping/

Who loves spiders??! Not us! We have noticed these little guys coming out in the hotter months, so we put a couple drops of peppermint in the corners and in the windows to keep the spiders away. Peppermint is also cooling to the body, can help respiratory function and breathing, and can alleviate upset stomach, so it's a nice scent to have around. The best part about it, is that spiders hate it. Bye bye little ones! #peppermint #essentialoils #oils #spiders #stomachache #stomach #respiratory #breathing #cooling #summer

If you feel healthy now, be grateful and keep at it! Think about prevention and maintaining your present state of health. Health is not a destination. It's a journey, a way of life.... Ask yourself: What good have I done for myself today? Did I eat breakfast? Did I drink enough water? Did I eat a healthy lunch? Did I try to relax? Did I get enough sleep? Did I exercise? Give yourself a "high-self-five" if you did any of these things ;) #highfive #selffive #health #wellness #prevention #water #sleep #exercise #breakfast #food #happiness
