Only 2 Weeks Until Tokyo! 🌸✈️
Only 2 Weeks Until Tokyo! 🌸✈️
I can hardly believe it, Tokyo is just around the corner! I wanted to take a moment to share what’s ahead for our amazing Michi on this incredible journey.
She will be entering a Japanese cultural immersion program, where she’ll spend one full month living with a host family and experiencing everyday life in Japan. She’ll also be attending classes at a local university, diving deep into the language and culture she’s come to love. Outside of school and her host family experience, Michi will have free time to connect with friends who are also studying abroad and to spend time with our very own Aunties and Cousins in Japan.
This moment is truly a dream come true for Michi. She’s worked incredibly hard to reach this point on her own merit, with determination, discipline, and heart. One of her long-term goals is to become an international finance attorney, and she has already begun laying the foundation for that future. In preparation, Michi has become fluent in Japanese, is currently learning Russian, and is even tackling AP Calculus!
I have no doubt that she’ll achieve everything she sets out to do and more. This journey to Japan is just the first of many steps on the path she’s carving with vision and purpose.
Since the last New Moon, Michi is now only $1,450 away from reaching her final goal thanks to the outpouring of love and support from so many of you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
We will continue to offer nail services for donations only until she departs on June 5th to support her journey. If you’d like to book an appointment or learn more, please click the link below.
Sending you all my love and deepest gratitude
The Science Behind Sunlight And Mood
Sunlight is a natural mood booster. Exposure actually increases the brain’s release of serotonin, the mood boosting happy hormone associated with helping us feel calm and focused. It’s also essential for producing vitamin D (which us Chicagoans are notoriously deficient in lol!). It supports immune health, bone strength, and emotional well-being.
Just 15–30 minutes of even a little bit of gentle sunlight (especially in the morning) can regulate your circadian rhythm, reduce stress, and even ease anxiety and depression. When combined with the mental engagement of reading, it becomes a simple but extremely powerful form of self-care.
Wellness Tip Of The Month
The Escape and Engagement of Reading
Reading is truly something I wish I did more often. It activates the imagination, quiets mental noise, and gives our overstimulated nervous systems a break. When the smell and feel of the pages starts to transports you into a gripping story, spiritual reflection, or educational journey and offers a moment of emotional alignment. It feels like for that moment in time there are no other worries just the indulgent stories told by someone else.
Now let's combine the 2 ideas of sunlight and reading together. When we read in the sun, it's an invitation of balance: light for the body, and literature for the mind.
Try creating a weekly or daily ritual:
• Choose a cozy corner outdoors or by a sunny window
• Bring your favorite book, a cozy blanket, and maybe a cup of herbal tea
• Turn your phone on silent and let the world fade away Sit, breathe, and read—just for the joy of it
This is your sacred pause. A reset. A reminder that healing doesn’t always require grand gestures—sometimes it’s as simple as sunlight on your skin and words on a page. In moments when life feels too loud or too heavy, let the sun and the story hold you. Reading in the light isn’t just relaxing—it’s restorative. It’s a gentle, radiant reminder that joy and peace are always just a page and a patch of sunlight away.

New Moon Capture
A Moment Through Angela’s Lens
This stunning image was captured by our very own Angela David, the talented photographer behind many of the visual stories at Liquid Healing Beauty. Angela is truly multifaceted — her artistry spans from professional headshots and family portraits to fashion editorials and breathtaking landscapes.
In this particular shot, she beautifully captures the golden glow of the setting sun as it gently washes over the subject’s face through the car window. It’s a quiet, radiant moment — the kind Angela has a gift for noticing and preserving through her lens.
