September 01, 2020 at 11:00AM I think I speak for everyone when I say I’m relieved that we’re a third through this year—2020 can do one, as far as I’m concerned. As if hearing our collective exhaustion at the year that keeps on taking, the weather has shifted to be enjoyably cold (by that I mean crisp, bright sunshine with the occasional freezing wind). This means one thing: it’s knitwear season. While the summer was for loose cotton dresses, shorts and padded shoulder vests, now it’s all about investing in the knitwear we’ll be wearing well into 2021. Personally, I’ll be stocking up on those jumpers and cardigans I’ll wear for many years to come—think cream cable knits, grey cashmere and striped nautical-style pullovers. There’s no doubt, however, that many of us are living on a tighter budget than before, but there are options. High-street favourite H&M has really delivered this season with a range of future classics that are primed for wearing with anything in your wardrobe. There’s a belted off-white cashmere cardigan and a greige thick ribbed knit which I know I’d wear all the time, but the piece I have my eye on is the cream knitted vest—wear oversized with a men’s shirt and leather trousers for the full 2020 look. Keep scrolling to see more knitwear gems from H&M. Next up, the biggest autumn/winter 2020 fashion trends to know. Author Elinor Block | Whowhatwear Selected by CWC

21 Things Every Woman In Their 30’s Should Learn About Wellness
September 01, 2020 at 10:49AM Wellness can be overwhelming. Are you going vegan or going keto? Learning to carb cycle or intermittent fast? Before you dabble in the trends, it’s helpful to optimize get some basic understanding about your own physical, mental and emotional health. Here are a few places to start… Operate in self-acceptance, not in punishment mode. Over many generations and through a million culture influences we have learned to achieve self-acceptance only through strict self-discipline and adherence to a standard of beauty that has little to do with us. In a culture where self-harm and eating disorders are still very prevalent we’re here to encourage women on a path toward self-acceptance. Desire to be your best, but learn what that looks like for you personally. Pursue your best with a wild dose of grace and self-acceptance. Life is so much more enjoyable this way. Become an intuitive eater. We interview a multitude of doctors, nutritionists and scientists for a reason, but little can compete with your internal guide. Learn to listen to your gut. Pay attention to the way you feel after eating different meals and in different ways. Notice when you feel great; notice when you don’t. Learn what works for you.

Whether it’s herbalism, functional medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine or Ayurveda that appeal to you, invest some time or buy some books that will teach you the basic premises of these healthy philosophies.

September Journal Prompts + Facing Challenges
September 01, 2020 at 10:00AM I’ve been reading Glennon Doyle’s new book, Untamed and have been so inspired by it! She mentions the quote, “You can do hard things”, so I wanted to focus on overcoming challenges and tapping into your own strength for this month’s journal prompts. Life is hard right now for everyone. Sure “hard” looks different for everyone but we have to admit this season of life is challenging for us all in some way or another. Most of you know that I’m not naturally a positive thinker which isn’t the norm in our “think positive” society. It’s nice to see that we’re starting to embrace the idea that life doesn’t have to be all good, all the time. That there’s room for the challenges and that the exist for a reason. Whether is a new season of life, a hard transition or just a hard situation, I’m trying to embrace each shift. My goal is to be as mindful as possible and lean into the hard times so the good times feel even sweeter. Hard times always bring a perspective shift for me. I realize what actually matters and life seems to boil down to the bare necessities. 10 Journal Prompts […] The post September Journal Prompts + Facing Challenges appeared first on The Healthy Maven.

19 Beauty Products That Smell So Good You Might as Well Be at a Spa
July 05, 2020 at 08:30PM If I have one area of expertise within my field, it’s smellies. While some beauty editors pride themselves on their textbook knowledge of the epidermis or their Katie Jane Hughes–style makeup abilities (I have a bit of the former, and none of the latter), I pride myself on my ability to rate every great-smelling beauty product from 1 to10 on everything from texture and scent to results and efficacy, all from memory. It’s a bit niche, I know, but I’m not going to fight it. My love for baths and body care is no secret, and although I really do appreciate a lengthy ritual, it’s the mouth-watering scents that really do it for me. And sure, experts will always have something to say about heavy fragrances in products, but it’s important to remember that not all scented beauty products are made equal, with some being better for your skin than others. More recently, as I have found my stress levels rising and my mind and soul have demanded more “me” time than ever before, I have found myself reaching for my most-coveted smellies almost daily. I find that not only do they help bring some delight to otherwise mundane tasks (like scrubbing your entire body), but the scents themselves also help to evoke a feeling of calm and clarity. And yes, there is some science behind why great-smelling beauty products make us feel good (it’s all to do with aromatherapy and hormones), but frankly, right now, I don’t think it
