Hacks to Start Healthy Living Today

 Hacks to Start Healthy Living Today

By: Kori McKenna



There are more ways than ever to start being the healthiest version of yourself!

Believe in yourself and strive for a change!

I will share my top hack for starting a clean and healthy lifestyle immediately. I have done the research, and I will share it with you to save time!

Pure Ingredients; this is my #1 hack. If you read labels of products, the top ingredients are arguably the most important ones. We have become a nation where a huge ingredient list is standard, but that is not the case. Fewer ingredients equal purer and cleaner products. Try to buy organic. 

Examples of Pure Ingredients: Jojoba Oil, Coconut Oil, Soapnut Powder, Essential Oils, Shea Butter, Apple Cider Vinegar.

Now I will tell you why pure ingredients are essential to starting a healthy lifestyle immediately: 

The great news is that pure ingredients are cheaper, better for the environment and you!

Pure Ingredients are versatile and can be used for many aspects of daily life, including health, hygiene, and cleaning the house.

Jojoba Oil has the closest natural sebum to our skin. Sebum is a substance produced by the body. This oil is an excellent moisturizer and works for all skin types.

Soapnut Powder or nuts are the perfect cleaning agent as they are antibacterial and antifungal. It works as a moisturizing exfoliator for the skin also. I use soapnut to wash dishes, do laundry, and as a body wash. A magical ingredient.

Coconut Oil is a great lip balm. I used a chapstick container and filled it with coconut oil for my lips. Works like a charm.

Apple Cider Vinegar works as a skin lightener and is a great scalp cleanser. This is how I wash my hair. It washes away oil and residues. ACV is also a great house cleaning agent.

    These are great examples of pure ingredients, and there are so many more such as baking soda, salt, Argan Oil, Aloe Vera, and more. With my secret hacks readily available, you are ready to start making changes in your household today.

Diary of Psoriasis: My Experience Tracker Pt.1

 Diary of Psoriasis: My Experience Tracker Pt.1 By: Kori McKenna In this photo, if you look closely, you can see my hairline has "snowflakes."   This is the first time I have talked about my battle journey with psoriasis, eczema, and similar skin conditions. My first struggle with skin conditions started with scalp psoriasis when I was a child. I also had many skin rashes growing up. Now I am in my mid 20's, and I have scalp psoriasis, rashes, and eczema.      When I went to the doctor as a child, they gave me Head and Shoulder shampoo, which did not keep my scalp psoriasis at bay. Sometimes my scalp would go into remission, but that is a rare occasion that comes and goes. There is no cure for psoriasis.      Recently I went to the doctor as a young adult(Age 23), and they prescribed me three topical medications. The doctor says I have Seboherroic Dermatitis on the front of my scalp, face, and inside my ears; then I have plaques of psoriasis on th...
