Frigid winter weather can be tough on your skin, leaving it dry, flaky, and irritated. To keep your skin looking radiant and feeling healthy, it’s essential to prioritize hydration – inside and out – during the colder months.
Aim for a daily water intake of half your body weight in ounces – so if you weigh 150lb, drink at least 75 oz of water a day. Add a rich, nourishing moisturizer into your morning or evening routine to lock in moisture and protect your skin from harsh elements. Incorporating SPF into your routine is also important, as the sun’s rays can still damage your skin even when it’s chilly.
Prioritize Skin Care and Hydration

Even in the winter months, getting exposure to natural sunlight is essential for your health. Sunlight boosts serotonin levels and helps regulate your circadian rhythm, which can improve mood and sleep. On overcast days, try getting outside for a brisk walk or sit by a window with natural light to soak up those rays.
If you can’t bear the cold weather, try an Infrared Sauna session for the same mood-boosting benefits as sunbathing—without the wind or UV rays!
Embrace Daily Sunlight
Local honey is a natural powerhouse for your immune system, packed with antioxidants and antibacterial properties that help fight off illnesses. Taking 1–2 teaspoons of honey daily is typically enough to provide immune-boosting benefits. You can take it on its own, mix it into warm tea, drizzle it over oatmeal, or add it to a smoothie. Consistency is key, so aim to incorporate it into your routine regularly.
You can swap your cough syrup for local honey as a natural and effective remedy this winter. Honey’s soothing properties help coat your throat, reducing irritation and calming coughs, while its antibacterial compounds combat germs. Simply take 1–2 teaspoons of honey on its own or mix it into warm herbal tea with lemon for added benefits. Not only is honey a simple alternative, but it also avoids the artificial ingredients found in many syrups.
