refresh, reboot shower routine⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🧖🏽‍♀️🧁

WHATS A REFRESH REBOOT SHOWER? ;

a refresh reboot shower are the kind of showers that u take that act like a reset button. i personally love them especially when i feel like i have so much energy pent up and i can channel it into doing something positive for myself.

ROMANTICIZE ;

something important to remember while taking a refresh reboot shower is to be PRESENT. thats what makes these showers different. instead of doing ur normal shower routine, or ur everything shower routine, this is the REFRESH REBOOT shower routine.

take time to feel the water on your skin. make sure its to the exact temperature that you like. smell the products that ur putting on ur body and bask in how yummy they smell. feel the soapy foam beneath ur fingers, wash every inch of urself HAVE FUN.

GUA SHA IN THE SHOWER ;

sculpt that beautiful face. gua sha is good for so many reasons. its good to reduce puffiness and swelling and its amazing for ur lymph nodes. do a full gua sha routine and watch how amazing u feel.

EXFOLIATION ;

exfoliation feels like (at least for me) like im shedding an old skin and revealing a new one so its a MUST for a refresh and reboot shower. so before the shower do some dry brushing for the softest skin then go in with a body scrub.

i rly recommend the tree hut scrubs or you can make your own with this simple body scrub recipe. so first off decide if ur doing a salt or a sugar scrub and i'll briefly explain the difference here.

sugar scrub ; deposits minerals into the skin, gentle exfoliation, hydrates the skin, helps draw water into the skin, less abrasive, smoothens and brightens the skin.

salt scrub ; eliminates toxins, gives a rosy glow, anti aging abilities, provides minerals vitamins and nutrients, tones and restores the skin.

to make a sugar scrub simply (1/2 cup of coconut oil + 1/2 cup of granulated sugar + 15-20 drops of essential oil of choice)...💬🎀

hot tip ; if u want to make it more scented you can even use a couple drops of a body wash along with the essential oil

to make a salt scrub simply (1 cup of sea salt + 1/4 cup of a carrier oil + 10-20 drops of essential oil of choice)...💬🎀

CHANGE UP THE SCENT ;

if u have a signature scent that you do a lot of the time, try and go for a different scent. im a hygiene junkie so i like to have a variety of different soaps to use, even though i almost always stick with the basics (smelling like a yummy cupcake) unless i want something different. changing up the scent can be refreshing so if you feel like it'll be refreshing for you, try and go for a different scent for a couple of days.

DOUBLE CLEANSE ;

if double cleansing isnt something that u do on a day to day basis then its perfect to do in ur refresh and reboot shower. wash ur body first with a bar soap (preferably something unscented or organic)

doctor bronners soaps work good too if u dont have a bar soap that u like. after using the bar soap go in with a liquid soap (ofc following the scent guide in the previous section) that way you can feel even more squeaky clean and refreshed.

Pick A Fragrance ୨୧₊˚ʚ ;

messages from your higher self <3

you can pick based on appearance of the perfume bottle, or the notes which i will put below ♡ these fragrances are all by Le Monde Gourmand

pile 1 ~ thé matcha (notes: fig, cedar, matcha tea, bitter orange, vetiver)

pile 2 ~ chai épicé (notes: violet, fig, musk, lily of the valley, blonde woods)

pile 3 ~ fraise fouettée (notes: strawberry, banana, california orange, butter, heliotrope, coconut water, sugar, vanilla)

pile 1 - thé matcha

hello hello hellooooo. i got a feeling from your higher self that you're a bouncy person. i heard "free-looking" but also free-feeling. carefree kind of person. i'm getting taurus & sagittarius energy (could be significant placements or the house that they fall under in your astrology chart is calling your attention right now! for example, if you're a taurus rising, your higher self would be calling attention to your first house of identity, appearance, self-expression & such). if this resonates, it's extra confirmation that this is for you. i will also pull some paper slips with keywords for extra extra info <3

keywords: searcher & finder (got the message that you're a searcher/you spend lots of time searching but in a fulfilling sense), weekend, sequence, between the lines, triangle symbol (fire, so i'm getting you have a prominent fire placement), missing puzzle piece, "follow ♥︎", illusion, "full?", in the zone

cards: 7 of swords, 2 of swords, the world, page of cups

something your higher self is drawing your attention to is being more strategic when it comes to attaining something. to be more straightforward and honest with yourself. let's say you've been feeling lazy about getting a job but when you see, then fully accept that you have a Need to fulfill, you start to plan out how to attain that goal. you start with your resume, you pretty and polish it up, you create a profile, you start looking for jobs you'd be willing to work at. that's just an example of course, but something about getting real with yourself and getting organized as a result. your higher self is encouraging you very much and also protecting the situation for you. i definitely think they're being loud and clear about it, so if you've been seeing a lot of sings or been called to many readings recently, or been thinking heavily about a change you can make, that's them reaching out! "devote and dedicate yourself to what's important to you". you could be passionate about many things and have many goals but there's something here about re-prioritizing and organizing yourself so you don't overwhelm yourself with goals. take it step by step, one day at a time. just organize your thoughts, take the time to get to the root of your current needs. your higher self is highly recommending you to be decisive right now. and it'll be easier to make decisions once you organize yourself.

the way your higher self is seeing you right now is with pride. you are already so accomplished and maybe don't fully realize Just How Accomplished you are. not to the extent. so they want you to give yourself credit. compare your current self to a past version of yourself that wasn't as wise and didn't have as many tools, and you'll start to recognize just how many things you have done. you've overcome so much and your higher self is like "that's my girl" kind of vibe. you don't have to be a girl of course but it's that kind of feeling of a parent watching a child grow and gently guiding them towards success but really that child is doing so well on their own. but you can rely on them fully (your higher self). they want you to know they're always there for you and that you're so strong! also if you're into travel, they want you to know that you'll be able to do so much of it in your life, and that they'll protect you. "the biggest blessing you're receiving is that you're gonna start to get your shit together and take over the world" lol.

with lots of love, what they're working on and "crafting" up for you right now is: a new learning venture, a new passion/interest/love, an opportunity. take all of those as they resonate.

channeled songs: whenever, wherever by shakira, illusion by aespa, drip by izna, illusion by ateez, bus by travis

pile 2 - chai épicé

omg HIIII i got a burst of energy for this pile omg. i couldn't even spell LOL. okay. getting a cozy energy from this group like you could be a lover of comfort and all things mellow and relaxing. don't think you enjoy heavy and unpleasant media, which is some interesting wording so maybe you have a nice and adequate vocabulary or you're the kind of person that remains graceful in hard situations even if you're feeling quite intensely about something. i'm getting peaceful, pacifist, but strong vibes from you. your higher self really praises this because i think you've gone through quite an array of difficult experiences but you remain charming, kind, and loving. i just heard "i shed a tear", like i'm picturing your higher self and i think another guide of yours? perhaps an angel, or a "motherly" kind of spirit. definitely a feminine spirit. if saints resonate with you, i do feel that as well. you're definitely being commended for the person that you are. these are all intuitively channeled so far.

keywords: cheer up! signs, bad (i thought of bad, bad, bad by LANY), tell me, journey, set me free, zone, beauty, butterfly

cards: ace of pentacles, 6 of swords, king of cups, 4 of wands

first of all, your higher self is once again commending you for being the way you are. you are very balanced and well-rounded, seeing as we got an earth card, an air card, a water card, and a fire card. you have all the elements within you! and truthfully, we all do, but there's a tendency to lean into some elements more than others. you have the balance. you seem to really alchemize in your life and take in things that are important and necessary to you, leave out the rest, and create beauty. you spread it. i was also hearing that you're the kind of person that people talk about to their friends like. you make good impressions on others quite often. and you are respected. right now, your higher self is calling your attention to keeping your eyes peeled for some sort of promotion/upgrade. if you've been working on a project, they really want you to put it out there and do it your own way. there's a prosperous result on the horizon for you. so pay attention to any creative ideas, inspiration, and epiphanies that come your way! document them! clouds and hanging flowers could be positive signs that an idea of yours will come into bloom or have a very wonderful outcome <3 if you're interested in chakra work, i would suggest doing crown chakra activities/exercises during this time (feel free to look some up!) but yes, your higher self is saying to definitely move towards any creative endeavors right now. there are soooo many possibilities. a book that has really TRULY been super insightful to me as a writer and creative is "the creative act: a way of being" by rick rubin. if you're called to that, please please look into it! ♡

some blessings that your higher self is working on for you at this time are: a good support system, connection, compassion, important (& beautiful) gatherings, wish fulfillment (significant steps that you're taking in the 3D and 5D towards dreams of yours are shaping up into the physical and getting closer to you), celebrations (i also heard congratulations) 🎊🎂

i'm super duper excited for u and i think you're doing wonderfully. if you believe in fairytale endings, i do think that kind of energy is absolutely meant for you. things are happening pile 2!!!! keep movin' <3

channeled songs: bad, bad, bad by lany, any songs that have the keywords i mentioned at the beginning of your reading, such as "butterfly", congratulations by day6.

thank u for being here 🎀

pile 3 - fraise fouettée

welcome in, welcome in ♡ getting such a sweet vibe from this pile. magical. pink. if this isn't how you see yourself, maybe your higher self embodies that kind of pink, light, fluffy energy. i'm getting you could be really into pinterest, collaging, scrapbooking, ribbons, cake, dainty clothing, white clothing, be into fashion. getting a bit of jennifer aniston kind of energy.. your aura is definitely giving PINK. i also feel like you could smell very good (this is interesting bc the other two piles did not mention anything about the person smelling good despite this being a "pick a fragrance" lol) so i think you're very put together physically, and care a lot about how you present yourself. i think you take other people's feelings into consideration. you have a gentle leader kind of archetype. take that however it resonates. those were the intuitive messages i got, now for keywords!

keywords: bunny, wonder girls, "say ahh", like (with a heart on the i <3), black hair, hundreds, unlock, party, charm, cake, girl's generation (make u feel the heat), sensibility

cards: the fool, the star, 5 of swords, justice

let's get started! i'm getting that you're a smooth talker. you love talking or your passion has something to do with using your voice and really getting a point across to people. and i think you're naturally gifted at that whether you sense it or not. your higher self is reassuring you about this right now, and also bringing your attention to situations where you have to either be upfront with people, explain something to them (maybe some of you are tutors or teachers of some sort), or present ideas to people. so if things like that come up, it was divinely guided for sure. you are meant to really take in this situation and learn from it. i think a lot of doors are opening up for you at the moment, perhaps you're in a "blank canvas" part of your life right now. so many things you could do, so many ways you can go. and it's all up to you. i'm hearing "design your own life". if you're skilled in the arts, you are also skilled in manifestation. that was specifically for you. your higher self is really recognizing your potential right now, if in the past you had a hard time listening to your intuition, they're thanking you now for having faith. "it's not easy, but it's so beautiful and true to you and your journey". for some reason marie antoinette just popped into my mind. you could really influence people because of your natural abilities. and i do think you have lots of potential to gain a lot of recognition for them. big scale. the house that scorpio falls under in your astrology chart could be significant right now, so if you're curious, look into it! at first i was getting such a pretty vibe from this group, and you still are, but as i got more into it, I felt a very sharp and direct feeling from you. you could surprise a lot of people with your thoughts, way of commanding a room, and overall your approach to communication and life. very cool person if i do say so myself.

blessings that your higher-self is sending your way are coming out in quite a straightforward manner: karmic justice. people getting what they deserve. the truth being revealed. unveiling.

i think that your higher self has watched over every single situation where you've been treated unfairly by others. it's funny to them, because they know exactly why those people were acting that way, and they're just happy you won't end up that way. they want you to rest assured, you have nothing to worry about. you can leave all of that in the past, and know that they, and the rest of your guides are all here for you. standing next to you. protecting you. and giving you the wisdom to see through those kinds of situations. you become smarter and much more compassionate each step of the way. your higher self is really working on giving you a more gentle time of your life, full of light, forgiveness, and innocence. beautiful and positive relationships and experiences are coming your way.

channeled songs: smooth operator by sade, pity party by melanie martinez, tell me by wonder girls, dying by echobelly, closer to fine by indigo girls, see you by depeche mode

i got the idea for a "pick a fragrance" out of the blue but i have watched a video by Kino Tarot on youtube where she did this so inspiration was derived from her :D

thank you for being here ♫⋆。♪ ₊˚♬ ﾟ. 🌷

Complete Guide : How to looksmax & drastically improve your appearance

Looksmaxing refers to the practice of enhancing one's physical appearance through various methods like grooming, skincare, fitness, etc. It's about YOU and feeling the need to constantly remind yourself that you can be better. In this guide, I’m sharing with you ridiculously specific tips to drastically improve your appearance.

body language

Being beautiful is not only about having big lips and a striking jawline. No, it's about the feeling you give to other people, about your energy. Furthermore, it's about how you have embodied your energy. The only way you can embody this truly, is by accepting your authentic energy.

· make eye contact

· keep your head up

· don’t play with your jewelry

· be extremely, obnoxiously confident

· stand up straight, push your shoulders back slightly and open up your chest

· smile more often, it will make you look more charismatic & happy, so you will appear more attractive, as many say “be happy and you will be beautiful”

diet

Proper nutrition plays a crucial role in transforming your skin from the inside out. By eating a balanced diet that is rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, you can help to maintain healthy, glowing skin. You will not only look your best, but also feel your best. Your diet should look like this :

· low carb

· low sugar

· 3L of water daily

· lots of veggies & fruit

· high protein, fibre & potassium

· only eat organic grass-fed meat (for meat)

· 3 Brazilian nuts a day, they improve your skin health & hair health

· ginger shots, a combination of ginger, freshly squeezed lemon juice & water or coconut water. The health benefits of ginger shots include : decreasing inflammation, calming indigestion, and boosting immunity. Keep in mind that ginger shots are meant to be drunk all at once as a quick shot. Be careful not to drink more than one shot a day since too much ginger can cause heartburn.

makeup

· keep it natural, don’t overdo it and remember, less is more

· curl your lashes & mascara (Dior iconic overcurl is my fave mascara!!)

· contour & bronze cheeks (Chanel bronzer 395)

· wear skin tint, NOT foundation. Less is more.

· sublte white highlight on the inner corner (I recommend dior glow palette) DO NOT grab a white pencil and think it does the job. It doesn’t. It will make you look tacky.

· black or brown liner on the upper waterline

· blend your skin tint in with your hand, then go in bak with a damp beauty blender for a flawless finish

· for a natural eye lift effect, draw a line (with a skin coloured pencil) from your outer crease all the way to the temple & blend in a sculpted effect

lashes & brows

Facial harmony is important to the face, and your eyebrows need to work well with all of your face.

For face harmony ask the eyebrow tech this: the eyebrow arch of the eyebrow should be aligned with the upper orbital rim of your eye, reaching it’s highest point slightly lateral to the outer edge of the iris.

For the length the eyebrow should start at a point above the inner corner of the eye and end diagonally from the outer corner of the eye, extending slightly past it.

Also the thickness of the eyebrows should be balanced and in proportion to your facial features.

Ask to maintain thick eyebrows if you do and ask to get it if you don't. Thick eyebrows are good because thicker eyebrows are preferred for a more youthful appearance like you're still in your 20s. Think of an example as Brooke Shields.

Also the distance between the eyebrows should be approximately equal to the width of one eye.

Furthermore the overall shape of the eyebrows should complement your face natural contours, and tell them to take into account your facial structure and features.

Also, your tech needs to be well skilled and knowledgeable to even know these. So I highly recommend going to a very qualified professional in order to get your brows done. At the end of the day, it’s like you’re giving your beauty in their hands. You alternatively do it at home, remember to be precise.

· get fuller brows : brow serum, micro blading, brow pencil, etc.

· grow out your eyelashes with a mix of aloe vera & castor oil (apply as a serum) or use a lash serum (I recommend Latisse)

· dark brows & lashes are more attractive, in order to darken them here’s some advice :

solutions to darken brows & lashes

· brow tint & eyelash tint

· hybrid dye : lasts up to 7 weeks on the hairs & 10 days on the skin

· tint : lasts up to 4 weeks on the hairs & 3 days on the skin

· brow pommade & brow pencil

skin

· in order to achieve your perfect skin tone, eat more carotenoids.

what are carotenoids?

Carotenoids are yellow, orange & red organic pigments that are produced by plants and algae. Carotenoids give the characteristic color to pumpkins, carrots, corn, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, spinach, salmon, shrimp, kale, broccoli, cantaloupe, papaya, mangoes, oranges, bell peppers, watermelon, apricots, tangerines.

(In summary they are brightly colored fruits and vegetables)

So make sure to include these foods into your diet. If you want a shorter list of the foods that are the highest in carotenoids :

spinach, kale, corn, oranges, bell peppers, tomatoes, watermelon, sweet potatoes, cantaloupe, broccoli, carrots.

· get custom spray tan

· get laser hair removal (don’t forget to shave before your appointment)

· smile line removal : volufiline

· for clear skin, STOP eating sugar & dairy

�� drink CELERY JUICE everyday for glowing skin

· a rich moisturizer, spf & a good diet is all you need

· it is better to get a real tan, not fake tanner

· laser mole removal

· to prevent ageing, you should SPF every single day, never use tanning beds, never smoke, use a retinoid nightly, wash your makeup off & maintain a skincare routine

· stay hydrated: drinking plenty of water and staying hydrated help maintain healthy, hydrated & plump skin

lips

Brushing your lips with a toothbrush. Brushing lips with a toothbrush each day can temporarily increase lip fullness. The brushing may stimulate blood circulation in the lips, leading to temporary redness and slight swelling. This increased blood flow can create the appearance of fuller lips for a short period. Brushing the lips with a toothbrush can help exfoliate the surface layer of dead skin cells, promoting smoother and potentially plumper looking lips, removing the buildup of dead skin cells.

· lip liner (love the Charlotte Tilbury liner & MAC lip pencil)

· ombré lips effect

· keep them plump & glossy

· if you want to whiten your teeth I suggest you get professional teeth whitening or use whitening teeth strips (if you have sensitive teeth, make sure to buy the right kind because you risk damaging the area)

get rid of face fat & bloating

Bloating significantly impacts your appeal by concealing the underlying bone structure, which plays a crucial role in defining the contours of your face.

Without well-defined bone structure, your facial features appear less distinct & with a rounder appearance, and it becomes challenging to achieve the desired prominent cheek bone effect.

This is probably the simplest way to get the perfect jawline ; all you have to do is massage your face regularly. A good massage will boost blood circulation and tone your facial structure. Make sure to start massaging from the bottom to the top, to prevent sagging. In case you’re asking yourself if this really works, believe it does. Stay consistent.

Even though you will hear many people say that 5-6 hours of sleep is sufficient for them, it isn’t enough to look your best. Without 8-10 hours of sleep, your body will start looking tired, and your face will look bloated and fluffy. 

· avoid SALT & SUGAR & CARBS

Why? Because salt, sugar & carbohydrates each have distinct effects on your body that contribute to bloating. Refined carbohydrates, as well as excessive sugar intake (particularly added sugars that convert into glucose), can cause blood sugar spikes and subsequently lead to bloating. These substances, such as sugar (glucose), have the ability to draw water from your body or hinder its proper absorption.

· eat POTASSIUM (spinach, kale, sweet potatoes, bananas, avocados, spinach, tomatoes, watermelon)

· do intermittent fasting

· rub an ice cube on your skin in the morning, as ice tightens your skin and helps reduce puffiness.

· drink 3L of water daily

It is very important to prioritize the consumption of a substantial amount of water every day. Water plays a vital role in flushing out sodium from the body, effectively reducing sodium levels. Also, water intake helps regulate the body's water balance, preventing unnecessary water retention that can lead to facial bloating and puffiness.

· do face massages

· contour & bronze your cheeks

· mewing : smile with closed mouth and swallow, don’t force your tongue. It’s about keeping your tongue in the correct position at all times. There is also a bunch of videos on YouTube.

IN SUMMARY

· working out

· intermidate fasting and calorie deficit

· drink a ton of water

· try to eat less salt, sugar, carbs

· eat more potassium (bananas, potatoes...)

· rub an ice cube on your skin

hair

· Kerastase shampoo & conditioner and dyson for styling

· when doing a high ponytail or bun, don’t forget to slick back your baby hairs around your ears

· rinse your conditioner with cold water

(locks in the moisture, makes your hair look smooth, shiny & reduces frizz)

· use a scalp massager 5 minutes

(stimulates & exfoliates the scalp)

· do Aloe Vera hair masks

· use homemade rosemary oil

· microfibre towel - dries your hair x2 faster plus it is so much better than a regular towel! Why? Microfibre treats your hair with care to help prevent frizziness

· add coffee to your shampoo (stimulates and exfoliates the scalp). It’s a great alternative to scalp scrubs

· rice water rinse twice a week

body

The ideal waist to hip ratio backed by science is 0.6. The target 0.6 ratio is ideal and is genetic, so don't blame yourself if your natural physique doesn't fit it. Enhancing it to 0.6 requires hard work & surgery, implants if you're not naturally gifted. 0.6 is ideal and 0.7 is average. It's bone structure / genetic, if you're already slim and don't have 0.6 it's not your fault. You can only get the desired (0.6) by surgery or possibly by extreme diet if you don't have it genetically.

Our bodies as women influences the type of men we attract. You attract and get chased by higher quality, financially well and genetically attractive men. It's because slimness is associated with elegance, higher class and higher social status. It also signals good health and youthfulness and that you respect your body enough to keep it healthy.

Capture body images

Take photos from the front, side, and back angles, along with a face selfie. This step is crucial and can serve as a powerful source of inspiration in the future when you feel demotivated or lose interest.

Measure your weight

I strongly recommend stepping on the scale on day one, the day you genuinely embark on your weight loss journey. This will be another significant step as it helps establish your starting point and, as you make progress, serves as motivation to keep going.

Develop a plan

Whether your plan is to follow a diet (ketogenic diet & intermittent fasting), to get a gym membership or to buy a scale : reflect on your goals and determine what you want to achieve such as how much you want to lose weight. You need to make a plan that you can fully commit to. And get it done.

Portion control

Although what you eat does matter, its about how much of it you eat. You’re going to consume smaller portions of whatever food, but make sure your plate is smaller because it’s all about calorie deficit. Also try to limit snacking as such as you can, because it’s not a little bar that’s going to make you any fuller. For 15 minutes maybe, but at at what cost? Eat proper meals (in smaller plates). But if you really have trouble with restricting yourself to a smaller plate I advise you to eat foods that are voluminous but low in calories. For example one cookie (15g) is small & thin, filled with 150 calories. But on the other hand, 1 kg of lettuce is 150 calories. See the difference? Same calories but different amount.

The Gaang’s Favorite Foods

Aang is an ovo-lacto vegetarian. He still consumes milk and eggs, just nothing that requires killing an animal. Being more used to getting nutrients from a variety of plant foods including nuts and seeds, supported by nutrient rich bison milk and whatever eggs they eat in this world, Aang’s diet is surprisingly diverse and not as restrictive as it first seems. People have and still do eat this way. He loves egg tarts!

Sokka is a growing teen boy, used to a high-fat diet of primarily fish, mollusks, large ruminants, marine mammals (and their blubber), full fat milk, eggs, blood, etc, and only minorly supported by additional foods like seaweed, berries, tubers, perhaps the occasional imported flour or rice. He is going to need a LOT of animal meat and fat. Especially organs. The cookbook says he loves dried salmon collars.

Katara is also a growing teen girl, and considering what starts for girls around her age, she probably also has higher iron requirements. Heme-iron (from meat) is the most easily absorbed, and if it’s what her body is accustomed to, I imagine there’s going to be a lot of cravings there too. It’s possible she slowly converted to a vegetarian diet eventually, but there isn’t actually anything in canon to say that Katara and Aang didn’t just maintain different diets. The comics and cookbook say she likes soups and stews including sea prunes which are actually a type of mollusk.

Toph comes from a wealthy family. Although most of the Earth Kingdom relies primarily on staple grains (rice mainly, but also others), she likely had a decently diverse diet compared to others. Including plenty of meat (beef, chicken, duck, pork), a variety of vegetables, and even luxury items like refined sugar. According to the cookbook, she doesn’t like to eat her vegetables, which implies she had open access to meat for most of her life. She is fond of tea eggs.

Zuko comes from the wealthiest nation which is also in a tropical climate. He’d have access to a plethora of fruits the others had never even heard of! Tropical fruits, berries, coconut, and all the different dishes you can make with them. The nutrient-rich volcanic soil would also lend itself to farming, giving this country plenty of fresh vegetables and staple grains. However, culturally they seem to be a meat and seafood loving people, and spiciness is critical! Being a prince, Zuko would have even more access to all of the above than the common person. According to the cookbook, his favorite snack is sizzle-crisps which is basically fried and seasoned pork belly. He also sneaks Komodo-chicken to his uncle in prison.

BONUS:

Azula, like Zuko, is royalty in a nation blessed with great diversity of fruits, meat, seafood, and fresh veggies. We know she attended a harsh military academy which puts its students through rigorous survival training. Azula knows how to live off the land and likely can survive off of whatever petty things she can forage or catch. But being royalty, she is more accustomed to having whatever she desires prepared for her. She seems to have a bit of a sweet tooth, which can happen when you give a teen unfettered access to luxury goods like sugar. With her nation’s relatively advanced stage of industrialization, certain more processed foods and desserts are available to her. She is fond of cherries and in the comics she is a fiend for mochi!

toodlezzzzzzz

[scleroticstatue]

tell me more about papaya. Ive never heard anyone say bad things about it. Can I put it in a smoothie? Also are there any other antibacterial foods Im unaware of? (Mad about onions)

Papaya is a food rich in digestive enzymes, which means eating it can help your body digest things better, even if your stomach acid is weak, your body isn't making enough of its own enzymes (like in the case of gluten intolerance and celiacs). You can even purchase papaya enzyme as a pill, but it's not as effective. There are other foods with digestive enzymes — mango, pineapple, avocado, banana, melon. That weirdly spongy fruit texture is almost always a giveaway that it's got some stomach boosting foods. Honey and ginger are also enzymatic, but they're antibiotic (not even antibacterial, full on antibiotic they're that strong). Coconut is also enzymatic, but it's a balancing act because the fat converts to antibacterials as it's digested, so you might try getting a product with coconut aminos instead of eating the coconut meat itself.

You can put papaya in a smoothie! You can put it in juice. You unfortunately cannot buy it pre juiced unless you're also going to drink a lot of sugar and other fruit juices. It is very tasty if you do not breathe while you are drinking it and rinse your mouth afterwards because your lips and mouth will also smell like vomit.

Almost every herb or spice is antibacterial. Turmeric, rosemary, oregano, sage, clove, cinnamon, black pepper, salt, even basil has a couple strains (though it seems more antifungal than antibacterial). It's speculated the reason humans like the flavor to begin with is because we know subconsciously it's protecting the food at make with it.

As for actual foods, citrus, cranberries, anything that is purple or red (grapes, pomegranate, blueberries, black currents, tomatoes, radishes, etc.), peppers, anything in the allium family, coconut oil, and honey are all antibacterial. Green foods — even green versions of red vegetables like green cabbage or green grapes — are not antibiotic, and onion greens are significantly more friendly than the roots, too. Plus, anything grown with herbicides and pesticides is going to kill your microbiome, so avoiding that and going organic is very important.

grocery list time~

literally just get these things if you want a vegan low cal life, because you can control portions and make things you enjoy eating with less calories- i made some example recipes under the list:

coffee.

SPICES. please make the investment into SPICES!

->continuation of spices, heres a basic list- cocoa powder, cinnamon, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, veggie bouillon powder/cubes, salt, pepper, lemon pepper, etc (you can find more online but please dont forget it)

->and simple sauces like soy sauce, basic hot sauce, mustard, white vinegar, apple cider vinegar, etc.

stevia or agave fruit sweetener. (please make sure whatever you choose you dont buy any sweetener with aspartame!!)

dairy free yogurt (i’ve heard coconut is good)

dairy free butter (earthbalance is my fav by far)

-> you could also make due with olive oil (cooking)

1st milk for normal stuff- unsweet cashew milk or unsweet creamy almond milk

->2nd milk for cooking- i suggest soymilk but creamy coconutmilk works good too

tofu. extra firm and silky work for different things (meat substitutes, egg substitute, diff. milk products substitutes) get either/both

carrots, mushrooms, chickpeas, and cauliflower all make good meat substitutes (bacon, chicken nuggets, pulled pork, etc) if cooked properly

OATS! plain oats are soooo versatile (used as flour, cereal, granola, crust, etc)

ricecakes (i use it as replacement for toast)

Pumpkin or sweet potato (in NO SYRUP canned form, very good for cooking low cal desserts or protein bars)

apple sauce (used for cooking and just yum- can be an egg substitute)

low cal noodle types- chickpea, edamame, shirataki, konjac, cauliflower, zucchini, spaghetti squash, and i think miracle noodle

literally any and all veggies and fruits- but a reminder of basics are broccoli, cucumber, onions, spinach, beets, eggplant, tomato, zucchini, potato, apple, banana, grapes, oranges, pineapple, strawberries, watermelon, mango, etc

WARNING ⚠️ be careful of sugar free drink flavor packets as they contain aspartame and other strange ingredients that ppl have complained of side effects- i would suggest to steer clear of many of the packets and go for a large unsweetened lemonade or fruit punch bin of flavoring so you can make it yourself. please check ingredients for health reasons.

-> HOWEVER, drinks like olipop, simple truth organic, waterloo, and zevia all have flavored water/sparkling water/cola drinks that are aspartame free.

I highlighted things that i think are really important

Veggie dip: yogurt, seasoning spices (ranch seasoning is goated), and a tbsp or lemon or soysauc, all mixed and best used as a “veggie chip” dip, like baked cucumber chips

Literally any cake/protein bar: oats blended, protein powder, 1/2cup apple sauce OR mashed banana, some milk, and whatever toppings you like

Granola: oats, chia seeds, cut up fruit pieces, and maple syrup or honey for binding. mix in bag, bake on baking sheet on pan.

Hot n sour soup: you can use hot n sour packet or make veggie bouillon and add hot sauce, soy sauce, and tsp chili powder. Then (to whichever mix you’ve made) add egg mixing around, and then add extra firm tofu in little cubes. Let the soup mix well and set a little while cooling.

Nicecream: freeze banana. add banana, tbsp of milk, 2 tbsp of yogurt, tbsp of sweetener, and a fruit of choice (a tbsp of protein powder also will help). blend with blender and then let it sit for a minute- add whatever you want on top

my best “toast”: seasalt ricecake, spread 1tbsp vegan cream cheese, and then spread 1.5 tbsp of organic raspberry jelly.

Adding Context (for a few of these, as requested)

PLACENTA CAKE

An ancient Roman cake of goat’s cheese and honey layered between a dried semolina pastry (called tracta, which some consider to be an early form of pasta) and an outer wheat pastry shell with a central knob of dough.

Other sources state the cake was also flavored with bay leaves before being baked, and then covered in honey.

Descended from the Greek plakous, which is normally understood to mean a flat cake, although some scholars believe it was named from the fact that it was “full of individual flat sheets.”

The name survives in many European languages, particularly the Rumanian platchynta, which resembles the ancient cake, and the Hungarian palacsinta, which now refers to crepes.

At some point in the Middle Ages, the word placenta came to be used for the human afterbirth, which has a coincidental resemblance to the ancient cake.

Throughout history the human afterbirth has been cooked and consumed by new mothers; it is said to resemble liver in texture.

Currently, the placenta may be dried and rendered into pill form so that new mothers may benefit from the recognized reduction in the incidence of postpartum depression in those who consume the organ.

BIRD'S MILK

Small, chocolate-enrobed bars with a soft, marshmallow-like interior, colored white for vanilla, or egg-yolk yellow for lemon.

First produced in Poland by the famous E. Wedel company in the mid-1930s; in 2010 the company received a trademark for them from the European Union.

From Poland, the candy spread in popularity throughout Eastern Europe, especially Russia, where during the Soviet era of food deficits, obtaining a box of bird’s milk candies was considered a coup, nearly as unlikely as milking a bird.

EGG YOLK SWEETS

The most basic form of Portuguese egg confectionery is a sweet, thick sauce of cooked egg yolks and sugar called ovos moles (soft eggs) used as a custard-like filling for tarts and cakes, as a dessert sauce or topping, or as a filling for marzipan sweets.

Although egg sweets are also made in Spain, particularly in the Castilian region that shares much of its culinary heritage with Portugal, it is the Portuguese who elevated the egg sweet to iconic status, developing an extraordinarily extensive repertoire of recipes.

In Portugal during the Middle Ages:

Food was scarce, and eggs provided an important source of protein. Eggs (from hens, ducks, and other fowl) were readily available, relatively inexpensive, and, at a time when most Europeans spent more than half the days of the year in religious fasting, the devoutly Catholic Portuguese regarded eggs as permissible Lenten foods.

Egg whites were widely used in sugar refining (which the Portuguese had learned from the Moors), thus an abundance of yolks were sent to convent nuns, a practice said to have been initiated by the pious king Philip III of Spain.

One effective method of preserving so many eggs was to cook the yolks with a large quantity of sugar.

Many nuns found experimenting with confectionery a welcome distraction from the routine of contemplative life.

Today:

A resurgent interest in traditional Portuguese egg sweets has developed, particularly in the many regional variations that are once again being made in convents throughout the country.

Egg sweets and other convent desserts (doces conventuais in Portuguese), often adapted to make use of regional ingredients such as coconut milk and rice flour.

How to meet autumn with a great and cheerful mood?

In general, there should never be time for moping. Yes, summer has passed, but this is not a reason for sadness at all. One of the important factors of a great mood is the general condition of the body.

The off—season is a conditionally comfortable time when we can adapt to the environment through a set of regulatory adaptive functions.

Changes in metabolism and the neuroendocrine system affect the activity of various physiological systems. Observations of the human condition show seasonal changes in activity: for example, the level of physical performance is minimal in winter and maximum in late summer – early autumn. Based on this, it is worthwhile to distribute and organize the work in such a way that the internal potential is enough for the entire winter period of biological “ rest”, and suddenly appeared cases and projects would not violate your plans.

Adapting to autumn-winter conditions and, first of all, to low temperatures, the total caloric intake increases. These changes are easy to follow, relying on seasonal and mainly local products, which are dominated by the amount of protein and fat. This can lead to some weight gain, which, if a diet adequate to the season is observed, it is easy to part with in the spring.

Strengthen the immune system. A very important moment in the period of adaptation to the autumn season. Help the body strengthen its protective functions with the help of vitamins that come with food. Adjust your diet so that it has enough antioxidants.

Where to look for antioxidants:

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Increases adaptation to cold and normalizes the outflow of lymph in the body. It is found in all citrus fruits, kiwi, cabbage, black currant, etc.

Vitamin P (bioflavonides). Normalizing pressure protects capillary walls. It is found in the peel of lemons and oranges, rosehip, tomatoes, and black currant.

Vitamin A (retinol). It guards the nervous system, helps the skin to be healthy and young, strengthens vision, and prevents brittle and dry hair. It is found in milk, eggs, liver, orange and yellow vegetables, and fruits. Vitamin A refers to those vitamins, most of which we should get from food.

Vitamin E (tocopherol). Protects the body from toxins. The lack of this vitamin can lead to increased fatigue and even anemia! It is found in sea buckthorn, cedar and almond nuts, white cabbage, pistachios, parsley, and peas.

Vitamin B (a group of vitamins). It helps to fight stress, promotes a stable state of the nervous system, which is especially important during the transition period, participates in cellular metabolism, and stabilizes blood sugar levels. It is found in nuts, potatoes, cottage cheese, cheese, legumes, and seafood.

Do not forget, that vitamins often work "in pairs". For example, vitamin P does not allow vitamin C to disintegrate in the body, and the lack of vitamin E worsens the absorption of vitamin A.

If it seems to you that you are not getting the necessary vitamins with food, this is definitely possible in the fall, consult your doctor and choose the optimal vitamin intake scheme.

Ferment foods

It is recommended to make preparations, ferment products, dry and freeze herbs, mushrooms, and berries. Such products retain vitamins, and some, especially fermented ones, become even more useful.

Fermented foods include sauerkraut, kimchi, apple cider vinegar, kombucha, kvass, good quality yogurt, and many others. Fermentation releases nutrients from food, making them more accessible to the body: for example, sauerkraut contains 20 times more easily digestible vitamin C than fresh.

First of all, it is worth paying attention to the diet recommended above, including prebiotics, dark green vegetables, coconut oil, turmeric, vegetables and fruits, fermented foods, and in some cases good probiotic preparations in the autumn and winter diet.

Stock up on phytoncides

Phytoncides are biological substances that suppress and kill pathogenic bacteria. Garlic, onion, "northern" berries, cinnamon, cloves, and pepper can boast of a high content of phytoncides. In the fall, the body should receive a shock dose of these substances.

To accomplish this task, for example, you can use an excellent folk remedy: chop half a head of garlic and half a lemon, pour two glasses of boiling water, and insist in the refrigerator for a day (where we then store the drink). Take in the morning, before meals, one tablespoon of the mixture. To enhance the effect, rinse your throat before swallowing. If you have stomach disease, consult your doctor before taking it.

In the cool season, the intensity of energy exchange is higher, so you can safely include more complex and nutrient-rich foods in the diet. These are legumes, grains, nuts, seeds and seeds, oils, and food made from starchy vegetables. These foods are easier to digest and are better absorbed in winter than in summer, and give the body all the necessary vitamins and nutrients to maintain health.

Of course, sweets and comfortable meals should be a part of our life, but in moderation and in the best quality. Learn how to cook them yourself from whole seasonal gifts rich in vitamins and all the necessary minerals. Nutritious, warming, and delicious dishes will brighten up gloomy evenings, cheer up and bring health benefits.

Move more and do sports

Small physical exertion regulates the normal functioning of stress hormones and helps to transfer the temperature regime more easily. At least 15 minutes a day should definitely be given to light exercise. If you attend a fitness club, now is the time to increase the number of workouts per week. Do not forget about the huge benefits of hiking.

Walk 1-2 hours a day in any weather and your immunity will tell you: thank you. Regular sports and yoga classes, appropriate to seasonal conditions, will help you to adapt to circadian rhythms more easily. Keep in mind that in winter, even healthy people have the highest indicators of blood pressure and contractile function of the myocardium, so choose moderate cardio loads.

Update your gym uniform. New beautiful clothes can work wonders with the mood and increase the level of motivation in training. Therefore, more fun in classes, better results, great mood. It will be much more pleasant to go outside after training.

You can always find safe and non—non-food-related ways to satisfy the emotions that you are eating: go to the cinema, chat with a friend, go to a party with a big company, meditate, treat yourself to beauty rituals - massage, bath, and other pleasant procedures.

Autumn is not a reason for poor health and mood. This is the time to meet friends in cozy cafes, an excuse to put on a new coat, and an opportunity to breathe special autumn air in nature. It is also the time to prepare the body for winter. Don't waste this time!

Bakery Sweetener Market: Key Insights and Emerging Trends

The bakery sweetener market has evolved rapidly in response to growing consumer demand for healthier, lower-calorie, and more natural ingredients in baked goods. As awareness of the health risks associated with excessive sugar consumption increases, consumers are seeking alternatives that align with their health-conscious lifestyles. This shift is reshaping the bakery industry, pushing manufacturers to explore and integrate innovative sweeteners. This article delves into the key trends, market drivers, and future prospects of the bakery sweetener market, offering a fresh perspective on its evolving landscape.

Rising Demand for Healthier Sweeteners

Consumers are becoming more mindful of the food they consume, leading to a surge in demand for healthier bakery products. Excessive sugar intake has been linked to numerous health issues, including obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. As a result, there is a growing shift toward sweeteners that provide the desired sweetness without contributing to unhealthy sugar levels.

Natural sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit extract, and agave syrup are gaining popularity due to their low-calorie nature and minimal impact on blood sugar levels. Additionally, sugar alcohols such as erythritol and xylitol are increasingly used in products targeting low-sugar or sugar-free markets, especially for those following ketogenic or diabetic diets.

A Shift Toward Clean Label Products

Consumers are increasingly seeking products with clean and transparent labels. This shift is forcing the bakery industry to reconsider the use of artificial sweeteners and embrace more natural alternatives. As part of the clean label trend, many consumers are moving away from synthetic ingredients and favoring sweeteners that are minimally processed and plant-based.

Natural sweeteners, which often align with the clean label trend, are derived from sources such as fruits, plants, and herbs. For instance, stevia, derived from the Stevia plant, and monk fruit extract, obtained from the monk fruit, are gaining momentum as consumers become more educated about their benefits. These ingredients are viewed as healthier alternatives to traditional sugars and are often preferred in organic and natural bakery products.

Popular Bakery Products and Their Sweeteners

The demand for healthier sweeteners is evident across various categories of bakery products. Here are some of the key areas in the bakery sector where these sweeteners are making an impact:

Cakes and Muffins: As consumers continue to reduce their sugar intake, low-calorie sweeteners such as stevia and erythritol are often used in cakes and muffins. These sweeteners provide the same sweetness with fewer calories and a lower glycemic index, making them suitable for those on low-sugar or diabetic-friendly diets.

Cookies and Biscuits: Sugar-free and low-sugar cookies are becoming increasingly popular. These products use a variety of sweeteners, including sucralose, stevia, and sugar alcohols, to offer the desired flavor without the sugar rush.

Bread and Pastries: For many consumers, reducing sugar in bread and pastries is important for health reasons. The use of natural sweeteners, like honey or coconut sugar, offers a more health-conscious approach to traditional bakery products.

Gluten-Free and Keto Products: The gluten-free and keto markets are booming, and these products often require sugar substitutes that meet the dietary restrictions of these trends. Allulose, a low-calorie sweetener, is frequently used in these specialty bakery items to mimic sugar’s functionality without the added carbs.

Key Drivers of Growth in the Bakery Sweetener Market

Several factors are driving the growth of the bakery sweetener market:

Growing Health Concerns: As global health challenges like obesity and diabetes become more prominent, consumers are turning to low-calorie, low-sugar, and sugar-free products. This shift has increased the demand for sweeteners that don't compromise on flavor but support healthier lifestyles.

Increased Adoption of Special Diets: Diets such as keto, low-carb, and vegan have gained traction, creating an opportunity for sweeteners that align with these dietary preferences. For example, sugar alcohols, stevia, and monk fruit are all compatible with low-carb and keto diets, making them popular choices in bakery items.

Innovation in Sweetener Technologies: Advancements in sweetener technology have opened the door to new products that blend natural and artificial sweeteners to enhance taste and texture while reducing caloric content. This has expanded the variety of sweeteners available for bakery applications, including those that can mimic sugar’s functionality without the downsides.

Sustainability and Ethical Sourcing: Consumers are also increasingly concerned with the sustainability of ingredients. Sweeteners like stevia and honey are often favored because they are natural and can be produced sustainably. The emphasis on sustainability and ethical sourcing in the bakery sweetener market is likely to continue driving growth as consumers demand more transparency in product sourcing.

Challenges and Barriers

Despite the rapid growth of the bakery sweetener market, several challenges remain:

Taste and Texture: One of the biggest hurdles in using alternative sweeteners in bakery products is their ability to mimic the taste and texture of sugar. Some natural sweeteners, such as stevia and monk fruit, can leave an aftertaste, while others might not have the same texture, impacting the overall quality of baked goods.

Cost of Premium Sweeteners: Natural and functional sweeteners, such as stevia and agave syrup, tend to be more expensive than traditional sugar. This price disparity can make it difficult for manufacturers to create cost-effective products, especially in price-sensitive markets.

Consumer Education: Although the demand for healthier sweeteners is rising, some consumers may still be unfamiliar with alternative sweeteners. Misunderstandings about the health benefits and safety of certain sweeteners can hinder their adoption. Educating consumers on the safety and benefits of these ingredients will be crucial in overcoming this barrier.

The Road Ahead for the Bakery Sweetener Market

Looking ahead, the bakery sweetener market is expected to continue expanding as consumers prioritize healthier and more sustainable options. The key trends influencing the market’s future include:

Personalized Sweetener Solutions: Advances in food technology could lead to more customized sweetener solutions that cater to individual tastes, dietary restrictions, and health goals.

Sustainability: The demand for sustainably sourced ingredients will push companies to adopt eco-friendly practices in their sweetener production processes.

Functional Sweeteners: Sweeteners that offer additional health benefits, such as prebiotics, fiber, or low glycemic indexes, are likely to gain more popularity as consumers look for added value in their food choices.

Conclusion

The bakery sweetener market is at a critical juncture, driven by health-conscious trends and evolving consumer preferences. With innovations in sweetener technologies, a greater focus on natural ingredients, and a shift toward sustainable and clean-label products, the future of the bakery sweetener market is poised for continued growth. As manufacturers adapt to these changing demands, the market will likely see more variety in sweetener options, creating exciting possibilities for both producers and consumers.
