Beauty isn’t one-size-fits-all, but unique to every individual and deeply personal—and we promise to be honest and vulnerable right there with you through our own personal stories. And since it’s as much about how you feel on the inside as it is about what you slather on the outside, you’ll find plenty of expert-backed wellness advice here, too.
The article begins:
"We naturally do it first thing in the morning, reaching high and long into the air to rid our body of tension and stress, yet many of us skip the stretching portion of our workout, promising to do it next time.
