The fundamentals to becoming (even) more beautiful

Sleep at least 7 hours a day. You don't have to make any effort: you just have to let yourself live (a little). Not only will you feel good, but you will also have brighter skin. Fatigue is one of the primary factors in dulling the complexion.

Drink between 1,5 and 2 L of water per day. Your body contains 65% water! It is partly thanks to it that it can maintain its essential physiological functions. Water is also the best plumping “cream” there is for your skin. Dehydrated skin = wrinkled skin…

Eat more fruits and vegetables. In short, stock up on good vitamins and antioxidants! If water hydrates your skin, they nourish it from the inside. Steam cooking, smoothies, soups, freeze-drying, fresh juices... Vary the taste pleasures throughout the seasons.

How to glow up mentally?

Having a mind of steel and a serene spirit is like muscles: you can cultivate them! What if we told you that you could combine business with pleasure to increase your aura tenfold? To glow up, you must keep in mind that isolating yourself is not the solution. On the contrary, slowly step out of your comfort zone.

Well in your head...

Meet people. Take the time to interact with your circle of friends and, above all, to get to know new people. We also grow through contact with others. Some have a natural “glow” so powerful that it will inevitably reflect on you.

Cultivate yourself. What's better to shine than to open up to the suns of the horizon?
distant? Immerse yourself in multiculturalism, read books, visit museums, watch films. Everything you learn will nourish your vision of the world and life.

Look for sources of inspiration. Sometimes we just need a guide or a common thread to infuse meaning into our days. Look for a cause or personality with whom you feel in tune. And let yourself be carried away…

 …and well in your body

Walk every day. Walking has the advantage of being a gentle physical activity that can please everyone, even the least athletic among us. It maintains the figure and cardiovascular health. The WHO recommends taking at least 10 steps per day.

Vary your sporting activities. Physical exercise is good for the body and good for the mind. Nothing like a good sweat session to evacuate toxins and “negative vibes”. Regularly test new practices for more sensations.

Do yoga. Here is the ideal mix between meditation and bodybuilding. Take 20 minutes a day to introduce yourself to this ancestral practice. Start slowly with postures suitable for beginners, like that of the warrior. And above all: clear your head!

How to glow-up spiritually?

There is a transformation that goes beyond the mental and physical, but is intimately connected to them. THE spiritual glow up refers to a higher level of consciousness. It has nothing to do with religion. It explores your way of being in the world and yourself. Don't neglect it!


Reconnect with nature

Try forest bathing. It’s proven: walking in the forest can help our nervous system recover. No need to hug trees (silvotherapy) if the idea doesn't tempt you. A walk in the woods will already bring you powerful revitalizing benefits.

Garden. Hortitherapy means using plants to benefit you mentally. If you don't have a garden, make a small vegetable garden or place planters on your balcony. You can also grow potted plants indoors.

Increase your outdoor activities. Don't get stuck in the comforts of the city. Dare to go out and explore wild landscapes! Go hiking in the mountains, going out on the water, going for walks in the countryside. Take the opportunity to relax and meditate.

Reconnect with YOUR nature

Adopt a positive attitude. People with an optimistic nature have a more sunny aura than others. Try, too, to see the glass half full. Run away from negative people as much as possible, who could drag you into their downward spiral.
Cultivate your joy of living. Have you noticed how happy people seem radiant to us when we meet them? A smile is not only more attractive to those around you. Researchers suggest this could be the key to happiness…Do what you love. This is probably the best advice we could give you if you are wondering how to glow up physically and mentally. Listen to yourself. Chances are you already know what you need to do to feel better…
