The Sol Journal

Nestled in Toowoomba, East Spaces offers a sanctuary dedicated to holistic skin health and overall well-being. Emphasising beauty from the inside out, their team of professionals addresses skin, body, and wellness concerns through self-care, nutrition, and naturopathy. Their mission is to treat and educate clients holistically about skin and general healthcare.

We chatted with the team about their approach to health, how to achieve glowing skin and how cleansing can help get this result.

How do you look after your health & well-being?

We prioritise our health and well-being by working with a 1:1 fitness coach, meal prepping, and ensuring balanced meals. When life gets hectic and these non-negotiables are neglected we can definitely feel the difference. In terms of self-care, we always make time for express massages and facials. Not only do they feel good, but their short time commitment doesn’t chew too much time in our day-to-day life, making sure there is no guilt associated with taking this moment just for us.

What are your skin health tips for Winter?

• Hydrate: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out.
• Protect: Always use SPF to shield your skin from harmful UV rays, even if it’s cold and grey outside!
• Nourish: Follow an organic, whole-food diet to provide your skin with essential nutrients.
• Invest: Use high-quality skincare products to maintain a healthy complexion.

East Spaces Custom Cleanse for glowing skin

The health of our skin mirrors our internal well-being. Research highlights the link between skin conditions like acne, eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, and rosacea, with gut inflammation and disorders such as IBD and celiac disease. By understanding this connection, we can use our skin as a messenger, guiding us to make dietary choices that support a radiant complexion. Therefore, nutrition plays a vital role in achieving healthy, glowing skin.

The East Spaces team recommend the following six Sol Cleanse juices or smoothies, each rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory properties, to include in your Custom Cleanse to enhance your skin health:

Balance
Packed with vitamins A, C, and K. Parsley is a notable ingredient due to its high vitamin C content, essential for collagen production, while celery provides excellent hydration for the skin.

Awaken
This smoothie is a great nutrient-dense option. Flaxseeds and hemp seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, while cacao is packed with antioxidants. Dates offer a plethora of vitamins and minerals that nourish the skin.

Love
Beetroot and carrots are particularly beneficial for promoting healthy skin and reducing inflammation, while ginger adds an anti-inflammatory boost, making this drink a skin-friendly powerhouse.

Courage
This vibrant mix offers a rich supply of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients. Eating a diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods can help ease any signs of skin inflammation too.

Shine
Strawberries and raspberries are high in vitamin C, essential for skin health. Coconut yoghurt provides probiotics that improve gut health, which can positively impact the skin. Hemp seeds and almonds deliver essential fatty acids and vitamin E.

Radiant
A powerhouse of vitamins A, C, and K. Kale and spinach are loaded with antioxidants that combat free radicals, which can damage the skin. Cucumber, known for its hydrating and soothing properties, makes this drink an excellent choice for skin hydration and rejuvenation.
