It’s so important to care about the space we choose for resting. Make sure it brings you peace and safety.
Remember that”s where you’re going to reset, rebalance, recalibrate.
Make sure it’s clean, comfy, refreshing, and uncluttered (if it’s a room/house). Choose wisely the colours and objects you have in this area.
All this and many other details will contribute to helping the brain, the nervous system, therefore, the body, to restore.

Why mouth hygiene is so important?
A healthy mouth is more important than you might think and has a lot to do with self-care, self-esteem and a healthy body.
There is evidence that gum disease is related to diabetes, heart and Alzheimer’s diseases.
Be aware that ‘bad breath’ can be related to poor mouth hygiene and poor digestion among other conditions (throat infections, sinusitis, diabetes, etc).
By keeping our teeth and gums healthy we are more likely to help reduce the risk of certain cancers.
Care about your mouth hygiene:
• Have a healthy and balanced diet with low sugar intake.
• Brush your teeth at least twice a day (ideally, after every time for 2 minutes each time and after
Keep your toothbrush clean and dry after using it. Replace it when necessary.
• Floss between teeth + use interdental brush cleaner as well. (it’s unbelievable the amount of food that is still left between teeth after you brush them).
• Our tongue says a lot about our health.
Clean the surface of your tongue, daily, using a tongue scraper. It removes bad bacteria preventing it to grow.
No. Brushing our tongue does not deep clean it.
• Choose wisely your toothpaste. Careful with the whitening products as some of them can damage the tooth enamel leaving it more unprotected from cavities
• Visit your dentist regularly (at least every 6 months) for a check-up.
• Do not delay going to see your dentist if you are experiencing, toothache, gum bleeding and constant bad breath.
PS: Babies (as early as newborns) need care about their mouth hygiene as well.
