a mindful moment to reconnect

Most of us struggle to find a moment for ourselves during our already-busy lives. What if you could take a task you already complete daily, and make it mindful?

That’s what I’m teaching you today! This Mindful Minute is inspired by Fré Skincare, who contacted me to try their skincare lined formulated for people who sweat. I’ve used it the past nine days, and have a lot to say!
