Lavender bath salt
I love to relax and treat myself by taking a warm bath every now and then. Especially when I can take the time for it: including an inspirational book, candles and… homemade bath salt.

Measurement conversion: from grams to cups
I love my Powerkitchen in New York. I try to make sure that I always have the most essential ingredients on hand so I can whip something up in a flash.

How do I nourish myself?
I used to be someone who was always there for everyone. I think that it had something to do with insecurity. I didn’t stick up for myself and it required huge amounts of energy to keep everyone happy all the time (which, by the way, is something I’ve found out is impossible). I did nourish myself by taking good... Read more
