Do your skincare products leave you disappointed in the results?

Do you struggle to find meaningful ways to celebrate the special people in your life? In today’s Mini Drop episode of The WellDrop Podcast, we dive into Dina's favorite home hacks that can help you create a more loving, connected, and healthy home environment.

We discuss one of Dina's key tips: prioritize family dinners, even if it's just once a week. Sitting down together without phones, enjoying a meal, and connecting with loved ones can have a profound impact on everyone's well-being. We discuss the research behind this and the benefits that come from it. 

Tune in to this special birthday episode to discover more of Dina's wisdom, from her morning rituals to her favorite natural cleaning solutions. You'll come away inspired to make small changes that can lead to a happier, healthier life for you and your family.

What We Discuss:

Key Takeaways: 

• Start your day right with a healthy ritual. Dina begins each morning by drinking a large glass of room temperature water with chlorophyll. This helps to alkalize and cleanse the body. 
• Prioritize family dinners, even just once a week. It’s important to sit down and enjoy meals together as a family, without phones, as often as you can manage - ideally a few times a week. 
• Make your own natural cleaning products. With just water, alcohol, and 10-20 drops of your favorite essential oils, you can easily mix up a natural cleaning solution in a spray bottle.

Have you ever wondered why certain patterns or beliefs seem to persist in your life, despite your best efforts to change them? The answer may lie in your subconscious mind, which is fully programmed by the time you're seven years old.

In the latest episode of The Well Drop podcast, we sit down with Laura Gevanter, the creator of Subconscious Energy Transformation (SET).

Laura shares powerful insights and practical tools to help you transform your life from the inside out. 

Laura Gevanter is a PSYCH-K® Facilitator, an Intuitive Alignment Coach, and Home Space/Energy Clearer. She believes everyone has the answers within them and just needs the proper guide to help them see.

We discuss:

00:19 - The subconscious mind is fully programmed by age seven

01:13 - SET (Subconscious Energy Transformation) 

01:36 - The subconscious controls 95% of our life

05:18 - Childhood experiences in the womb can have a lifelong impact
