Sometimes growing up is so hard to do and paying attention to your BODY, MIND & SOUL is what will get you through it. For this blog, we will focus on the body!
BODY

Hygiene
It is great to be a preteen and grow-up, but the added growth comes with all sorts of hormones and smells.
This is the perfect time to get your own shopping trip to stock up on Carmel Soaps shower gels, lotions, and bath salts. Shower every day and get bath bombs or bubble bath soap to have a nice relaxing soak on the weekends.
Make sure that you are now flossing your teeth daily and brushing your teeth. Like my dentist says, “only brush and floss the teeth you want to keep.” I hope you choose to keep all your teeth! Plus, brushing and flossing daily keeps your breath smelling great!
Keeping your toenails and fingernails clean and clipped is also very important. While long nails may be popular, but the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends you keep them short and trimmed in order to lower the chances of getting germs and infections.
Hair
What is that hair doing there? If you don’t know by now people like to have a head full of hair, but hair anywhere else is not welcomed. Why? Well, it turns out that hair harbors a lot of germs which makes things smell bad. Talk to mom about shaving and buy DEODORANT! The deodorant will help you keep friends close.
