Hold up: Before you rush to book your next spa facial, consider an investment in chia seeds for the long-term health and glow of your skin. Chia seeds (appreciated long before the arrival of the Chia Pet on the scene) were prized for centuries as an endurance food in Mayan, Incan and Aztec cultures. Chia seeds are crunchy little packages of goodness which are extremely filling, low in calories and high in Omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids are believed to support healthy skin, hair and joints. In addition, Omega-3s are valued for their ability to fight heart disease, support a healthy immune system and help protect against abnormal blood clotting. Chia seeds are also believed to be useful in the fight against depression.
Things that make me happy: Laughing so hard my cheeks hurt. Hot showers. Getting REAL mail. Diana photography. Sofia Coppola movies. That first autumn chill. Hot towels fresh out of the dryer. Champagne. Bubble baths. Long conversations with old friends. St. Martin vacations. Inside jokes. Being with family. Cinnamon scented candles. Clean white sheets. Cavalier King Charles puppies. Massages. Boba tea. Airports. Starbucks coffee. That new car smell. Chocolate. Anthropologie. Babies. Languages. Singing in my car with the windows down. Scuba diving. Traveling the world. Hot cocoa. The silence of winter. Paulo Coehlo books. Hookah. Smoothies. Fresh Flowers. Paris.
