From Meh to Magical

Herbal & Fruit Allies for Seasonal Lethargy

Hi my loves! ๐ŸŒง๏ธ๐Ÿ’—

Seasonal lethargy and fatigue have set in for me big time this monsoon.

While the temperatures have dropped, the high humidity and pollution continue to create a gas chamber-like greenhouse effect.

This lethargy manifests in cruel waysโ€”like forcing you to shove some McDonald's down your throat to lift your spirits (like I did yesterday ๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ”).

Fast food isnโ€™t the solution to this lethargy, but real food definitely is. ๐Ÿƒ
