Lifestyle Bookazine Natural Remedies Third Edition Edizione posteriore

We all suffer from minor health complaints from time to time, whether it’s seasonal issues like hayfever or cold, or the occasional headache or bad skin day. We often reach for over-the-counter medicines to solve common ailments like these, but there are a whole range of remedies that you can make yourself, many of which can be made up using simple ingredients that you probably already have in the cupboard.

It’s not just your health either, there are many skincare and haircare products that you can whip up in the kitchen. These homemade moisturisers, serums and masks can often be far cheaper than store-bought options, and the best part is you know exactly what is going into them – no synthetic chemicals in sight! As the old adage says, prevention is better than cure. There are many lifestyle changes we can make to improve our physical and mental health. These simple changes – from correcting a slouched posture to daily mindfulness exercises – can have a surprising impact on our overall wellbeing.

Natural remedies can also be put to use around the home too. There are some DIY superhero ingredients like bicarbonate soda and lemon that can power through dirt and grime in the kitchen and bathroom. And there’s no need to resort to harsh chemicals in the garden either, you’d be surprised at how many eco-friendly homemade hacks there are for deterring pests and fertilising plants. The natural remedies approach is all about harnessing the power of nature, whether that’s through nourishing ingredients or being more mindful of how we take care of our minds and bodies each day.
