from me, because it's cool!

It's been too long since I wrote to you, here's why (among other things 10 shootings in eight days).

Oh, watch Vive "9 " here for such beautiful recycled garden ideas and this content: beauty tips with Jocelyne, the powerful antioxidant benefits of rosemary oleoresin with Luc and joyful deconstruction of the carrot with Julie & David (be careful, you'll want to eat some immediately): "Herbamare" type salt & carrot transformed into succulent pesto and trendy vegélox!

Here is also a way to learn a little more about the difference between 100% active and natural and thus be happy to have access to such good care.

Then another episode to watch, this Vive "8" which hits: veganism with Georges Laraque (with his "what to eat" inspirations), a step further towards zero waste & Ayurvedic medicine with Vanesa: you can also receive the Shirodhara treatment* at our two salons in Quebec and La Prairie, an incomparable experience in terms of deep mental calming... hey, what a great idea for a Father's Day gift to offer it, I'm also sharing my other inspirations here which they will certainly appreciate .

And don't miss Vive ce soir at 8 p.m. (simultaneously here or here) I'll be there, all sweet and laughing with you while Julie and Caroline teach me simple recipes like different lunches that baby loved while at the adults' table, the men delighted in veggie sauces! Céline also addresses your concerns about children and chats about the spiral of how to change.

(Coming next week: Georges Laraque in the kitchen and Dr. Brouillard gives fascinating answers to your questions about water & electromagnetic fields).

Hear ye hear ye: this Saturday, June 10, at La Prairie, yoga in nature begins, free (thank Nancy, it's her gift), for everyone, at 11 a.m. All you have to do is show up with your mat! Exit 62 of the 30, go towards St-Jean then turn at the first path on the left and go to the end of it for the 1955 Fontarabie.

Beauty salon side :
*I have wanted to receive this treatment for moons, years. So I put everything in place to offer it. I wish you this deeply soothing divine experience, which takes us into another reality. Here is the shirodora, a thread of oil that flows continuously over the 3rd eye, to calm the mind, soothe anxiety, and ensure good sleep. Practiced for millennia. Offered at our two beauty salons in La Prairie (450-444-7644) and Lac Beauport (418-841-2390).

Skincare & makeup :
Here, filmed by my son, is my beauty routine, so simple and good, then my uncomplicated kit when I leave for a few nights (my trio, vetiver deodorant, body oil, Jacynthe lipstick and up-to-date nail polish).

The "nudes" are freesia (pinkish beige) and hyacinth (pink with more blue); cyclamen is a more vibrant & dark coral; wallflower is a harsh coral; peony is pop (directly enhances the complexion) and anemone, a coral pop, you can see them at a glance here.
