Excessive stress and stress should never dominate the everyday life; we want to help you to be able to enjoy the winter and the Advent season as you did when you were a child.

1. Go for a Warm Bath in the Evening

The nicest thing about the terribly cold weather outside is when you come home in the evening after a long day at work and get a hot tub with enjoyable and pleasant smelling bath water. There you can relax with a glass of (Glüh-) wine and a home made face mask – I is wonderful and helps release the stress.

2. Appreciate Nature:

Even if the icy cold weather is often not inviting, there are many fascinating nature spectacles in wintertime. These should be enjoyed together with your family and just be aware that the winter can create many magical moments.

3. Use the Sun Whenever Possible!

Because the sun is a rare visitor in winter, you should use it whenever you have the opportunity. But especially in winter the right sun protection is especially important! Even in winter, sun rays can be dangerous for our skin - to prevent that, our NAVI Anti-Pollution Hydro-Day Cream contains a UV filter, which protects the skin, but does not inhibit vitamin D formation, but even supports it!

4. Eat Healthy Fats

Yes, fat brightens our mood. But only the right fat! What you find in fish or nuts. This strengthens our immune system and boosts our metabolism, which slowly becomes slower due to the cold. And a few nuts in the evening, cuddling with your loved ones, that does not sound so bad, right?

5. Spices that Lighten the Mood

Yes, that does indeed exist! Spices that affect the mood. Why not just spice up the tea with some ginger or add cinnamon to the morning cereal? This not only tastes wonderful, but also makes us really feel like Christmas.
