The world as we know it is changing every day, every hour, and every minute in response to COVID-19. It is resulting in huge pressure and change for many people, and the fear from this is causing some people to panic, some to get sad and depressed, and others to put their heads in the sand - like ostriches do.

At Mummy Mojo we like to focus on the silver lining, to look for the lessons, and to use times like this as an opportunity for growth and development. That’s why we’ve put together this feature and filmed a video with our steps to help you cope and stay healthy during C-RONA.

Epsom salt baths are a nourishing and relaxing way to detoxify and cleanse your body and your mind. In fact, it's one of my favourite ways to relax after a long day.  Slipping into a steaming tub of what is basically magnesium is one of the best ways to ease a sore and aching body as well as relieve stress, anxiety and insomnia.

Your liver is a key, frontline immune protector. One of its many roles is to detect pathogens entering the body via your gut—and then capture and clear bacteria, viruses, and toxins.
