"It's not just what you eat or how you care for your skin; it's also about what you consume mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Wellness is being intentional about what you give your time, energy and body to. Life can get hectic, but it was crucial to create moments for myself to slow down—whether it was journaling, taking a bath or just sitting quietly. Those small pauses helped me reset and stay present, even when a lot is going on." –DREKA GATES
