Where did New Year’s resolutions originate, and why are they a popular part of our culture?

It is generally understood that the ancient Babylonians were the first culture to take part in resolutions and to celebrate the new year. Their new year began in what is our time of mid-March, when the farming season began. During this time the Babylonians celebrated a 12-day religious festival called Akitu. The people would make promises to their gods to pay their debts and return borrowed items.

The ancient Romans practiced a similar tradition. Janus (January) was a two-faced god who symbolically looked backwards at reflection/resolution and simultaneously looked forwards to new beginnings. The people made sacrifices to Janus and promised to behave better in the coming year.

There are also New Year stories of peacocks and medieval knights, of life-sized dolls set on fire at midnight, of night watch services and the singing of hymns. With so many diverse views, the one feeling that most of the known traditions share in common is the (very human) universal desire to begin again and do it better.

PSB wishes you all a happy, healthy, and very herby year ahead!!✨

During the Winter months, my skin takes a dry transformation. You may find me rubbing my itchy back along my office chair in resemblance to a bear rubbing his/her back along a tree. A few years ago while researching ways to help control my bear shape shifting, I found information on dry brushing the skin.

What is dry brushing? I immediately think of brushing a horse…watching the dust rise up, the horse quiver in pleasure, and the sound of the dry brush against the horse hair. This care practice is not just for horses. While most practices of exfoliating the skin are using water and/or products, dry brushing is using a brush with out water or products.

What are the benefits of dry brushing? It has been around for 1,000’s of years in many different forms and cultures.  Traditionally dry brushing has been used for several self care practices:

1. To exfoliate dead skin cells and open the pores.
2. Stimulate the Lymphatic system.
3. Promote relaxation.
4. As a form of Meditation.
5. It feels wonderful.

What kind of brush is recommended, and how do I start? Read our blog post “Dry Brushing: Not Just for Horses!” to learn more. You may be inspired to add something new to your winter self care routine!
