February Recipe (Rest)

February Recipe (Rest)

Did your grandmother ever tell you to drink a glass of warm milk before bed? Have you ever tried it, or wondered if it's just an old wives tale? Research shows that it just may help improve the quality of your sleep!

This perfect combination of milk, a healthy fat, and spices packs a healthy punch that supports your entire system, and not just in getting better rest.

The spice highlighted in this Golden Milk (and what gives it that golden hue!) is turmeric. Turmeric is hailed for its anti-inflammatory benefits and the ghee or coconut oil makes it more bioavailable for your body.

We love this recipe after a long and exhausting day. It only takes 5 minutes to make, then you have time to cozy up with a good book, pet, or partner and savor some time for restoration.
