As we head into the new year, many of us use the fresh start feeling to hit reset and establish new hopefully better habits.
You may have made a list of goals you want to work on in 2023 and as part of those goals.
You may already be on, or recommitting to a skin journey to finally learn what unique systems will help you achieve and maintain the skin of your dreams.
If you have been reading my content long enough, or are a client of mine, then you already know the importance of inflammation when it comes to skin.
Internal or external, inflammation triggers a series of processes within our body and skin that can really hinder the proper healing of your skin. When your skin can’t heal, it remains angry and irritated. Not fun. Managing acne and post-active hyperpigmentation becomes even harder as your topical treatments can only treat one side of the issue.
So where does a service like Sakara Life come in?
DISCLAIMER
Firstly before we go any further, full disclosure, I am an ambassador for Sakara Life.
I also have a discount code for you to try if you decide to try it out for yourself.
Depending on what you end up purchasing I get a small commission for that transaction at no obligation from you. So thank you in advance for your consideration.
So What exactly is Sakara?
Sakara is a plant-rich, organic nutrition + wellness
company rooted in the belief that food is medicine.
They offer meals + nutrition programs delivered straight to your
door, in addition to a wellness product line of healthy
snacks and supplements.
All Sakara meals and products are designed by a team of
nutritionists, doctors, and chefs to ensure they’re as healing
and effective as they are delicious and innovative.
Essentially, Sakara is a meal delivery service, based on your area and location you can view the upcoming meal options for the weeks ahead and then choose to enjoy a 2-day meal plan where can choose from breakfast, lunch, and dinner or you can select a full 7-day plan of all three.
You have the option to choose a recurring subscription like any other meal plan, but you can also just select a one-time option.
Why Sakara?
As a personal choice, it came down to the fact that Sakara aligns so much with my personal practice when it comes to skincare. Working with clients, we work holistically to address your skin conditions and concerns.
Inevitably we will review and consider what you’re eating as it pertains to any foods that might be triggering an allergic condition, or what simply is known through research to heighten the occurrence of conditions such as Acne or Rosacea.
Cleaner eating supports faster healing and better skin health maintenance overall.
And for so many of us, the reality is, healthy eating is more likely to happen when we can just reach for something healthy during a busy day than to think of something to make or plan a meal plan a full week in advance, only to get to Wednesday and hate everything you have.
I mean how many of us have sat mindlessly at our computers snacking on chips or baked goods?
Grabbing a bagel for breakfast because it’s fast and portable.
Made pasta for dinner when you needed something fast and easy because your schedule got pushed and now you’re starving.
Meal deliveries are a privilege to be able to have, but the reality is if it’s going to help you stick to healthier habits and provide a further return on the investment you make into your skincare and skin health.
It may be worth considering as a self-care investment just as you would any other.
So how does it help your skin exactly?
Well, as mentioned the cleaner you eat the better holistic support you provide to your skin.
What I find beneficial to clients in what Sakara offered, is that the provided meals are not only delicious, but they also fit a range of dietary needs.
It’s plant-based but you have the flexibility to add meat or fish protein to any of the meals on your own at home.
Often I use the meal plans to eat plant-based a few days a week, but if I feel like I want to add some meat protein to the meals I can and do, easily with some quick salmon or grilled chicken breast and in less than 10 mins I have a delicious healthy meal ready to go.
Sakara meals are crafted and curated to integrate the historical concept of food as medicine.
Ingredients are chosen for their supportive nutrition and natural anti-inflammatory properties which in turn support your skin from the inside out.
Antioxidants naturally occurring in the included greens, fruits, nuts, and veggies are a powerhouse of defense against premature aging.
By fighting off free radicals in combination with your topically applied antioxidants, (think Vitamin C, A+ E) along with your SPF is the gold standard of skincare systems for protecting your skin from premature aging. O
Outside of staying out of the sun and outdoors entirely. And that has its own issues to consider.
So healthy eating, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidant benefits at your convenience are all plusses to sustaining holistic skincare systems.
What to expect?
What’s nice is that it’s uncomplicated. Your delivery will come packaged by meals, with info on if the meal can be heated or is best just as it is. You refrigerate all your meals and just reach for them as you need them.
I often use my container for portable storage if I have meals made to go, leftovers or juices. When I’m ready to discard them, I just pop them into the recycling bin.
There’s no calorie counting, as Sakara looks at clean eating as a lifestyle, not a diet.
Sakara very much wants to build the habit as part of your lifestyle which is the most holistic way to build a wellness habit. Start with how the meals can fit into your daily routine to improve it and then build on that habit a little every day.
Clearer skin, and natural weight release from all the bloat and internal inflammation we walk around with every day when not eating as clean as possible, are benefits that naturally occur from supporting your body as a whole.
Your skin is the external reflection of your internal health, if you care for the inside the benefits will rise to the surface of your skin for sure.
Ready to build on your new habit?
In between meal deliveries, or on top of them, healthy support from probiotic capsules, detox, and skin-boosting tinctures as well as supportive teas are easy ways to stack on your new healthy habits.
Probiotics are amazing for supporting the healing of Eczema, Rosacea, and Psoriasis conditions as your gut health plays such an important part in managing these conditions.
