It can be hard to connect with nature this time of year. It’s cold outside in the Western hemisphere, and in many areas, spending recreation time outside requires gear, or heavy jackets and snow pants at the very least. While there are plenty of reasons why it’s easier to stay inside, making sure that you and your children are getting quality time outdoors is vitally important.
It’s common for people’s routines to change during the winter months. The colder weather makes it harder to get outside, holidays disrupt your schedule and add stress, and the shorter days can put a damper on your mood. Together, these things have the potential to impact your overall health and wellness.
The winter season offers both joys and challenges; in 2020, there’s an awful lot more to navigate when it comes to protecting your health during the chilly, darker days. Not only are you combating cold weather, shorter daylight hours, and an increased likelihood of a cold sore outbreak, but this year you’re navigating all the lifestyle complications of the COVID-19 pandemic. It can be a lot - but there are some ways to work towards keeping your face and body nourished and prevent those pesky cold sores from cropping up!
While winter might be a beloved season thanks to its snow and festive holidays, it’s one of the most dangerous times of year for your hair. The weather changes common in winter can harm even the healthiest locks in many ways, leading to a frizzy, damaged mess before spring.
Cold and flu season is nearly upon us, and some of us might be feeling more anxiety about it than usual. There’s almost no escaping the colder months of the year without catching a cold, the flu or some other upper-respiratory infection. It doesn’t take long for the runny nose, sore throat, foggy brain and general feeling of malaise to overwhelm you. Before you know it, you’re spending the day in bed, drinking fluids and trying to push through.
Aside from the cooler temperatures, one of the most dreaded parts of fall and winter is the increase in wind that stings your face and musses your hair. While you might be annoyed at the wind ruffling your carefully done ‘do, what you might not realize is that too much wind can damage your hair. Being proactive about hair care and hair protection while outside can reduce the harm windy weather can cause.
The coming of winter means there are all kinds of new opportunities for making memories with your loved ones, from sledding and ice skating to family gatherings and holiday festivities.
People who suffer from arthritis will often tell their friends and family members that they can sense oncoming storms or weather changes based on feelings in their joints. While this sort of statement may seem perplexing and perhaps even a little ridiculous, there is some truth behind it.
Your skin is your largest organ and protects you from harm—from microscopic organisms to everyday bumps and scrapes. In order to keep your insides healthy, you need to keep your outsides healthy, and that means taking good care of your skin.
