Masarap Lumpia

9/11 is a day I will never forget.

I was 22 years old & I was living in Santa Barbara. At the time, I was the office manager & professional match maker to a dating service called Central Coast Introductions. I usually was the first person in the office, so I’m the one that opens it for the day.

I had just taken a shower & was in my room getting ready for work. As I was getting dressed, I remember having the TV on.

I typically watch the news while I got ready.

What I saw happen on live television was so shocking to me. I felt like I was in a dream. I had to look again at the TV and it said live so I knew what I was looking at was happening in real time.

The shock, the horror and the devastation I felt in that moment was something I’ve never felt since.

That day & the day afterwards shook me to my core, and it made me feel less secure as an American than I ever have, at that point.

For once, it was a real possibility that war could happen on modern day, American soil.

So when my husband and I went to New York 12 years ago, he asked me what things I wanted to see and explore. I told him I wanted to go to the site of where the Twin Towers were & where 9/11 happened.

I wanted to pay my respects & honor those whose lives were taken that day.

When I was there, I could feel a lot. I could feel so much spirit I could feel the souls of the people who have been departed.

My face here is really awkward here because I didn’t want to smile. I was happy to be in New York City, but I wasn’t happy in like a traditional way. It was very mixed emotions that I was feeling.

I THINK I HAVE CRACKED THE CODE TO GETTING A GOOD NIGHTS REST DURING PERIMENOPAUSE!!!

I wanted to share this on this page, just because so many of my clients are women going through a certain phase in life & I thought this could help.

My routine may not help everyone, but it has helped me tremendously, so this is my disclaimer, and it’s really worth considering.

1.) Avoid caffeine - I have been drinking tea with zero caffeine.

Mostly, the teas I consume are hibiscus & hibiscus blends that contain citrus and/or ginger.

I’ve made my very own Wellness Tea Blends thru Masarap Lumpia.

If you are interested, please let me know. My tea blends & ginger syrups cost $10 - $15.

2.) Avoiding alcohol - it’s a big PM trigger.

3.) Avoiding refined sugar… I use dates, honey or agave to sweeten food, drinks & desserts.

4.) Drink plenty of water - 1/2 the amount of ounces of your body weight. So if you weight 100 lbs, drink 50 oz of water.

5.) Eating nuts/seeds that are high in magnesium. On a day-to-day basis, most people are not consuming enough magnesium to help support sleep. 

6.) THC/CBD Gummy by no later than 8 PM.

7.) Magnesium Butter/Balm rubbed on my back, arms & shoulders.

This routine guarantees me at least 6 hours of sleep. On good nights 8 + hours!!!

Btw, this Magnesium Body Balm is one of my first products I’m rolling out from my new business, Palm & Spirit.

I created this for my personal night time routine.

I find having a solid night time ritual has helped in ways I can’t even express.

Take care of yourselves, Ladies!

I HAVE NEVER BEEN PROUDER TO BE A CALIFORNIAN THAN I AM TODAY!!!

I LOVE MY BEAUTIFUL STATE!

My Family has a long history here & that legacy of working in food starts with the Farming Communities in California.

We have the Pacific Ocean on one side & mountains in another, we have lush & fertile farm lands, diverse fauna, flora, industries & culture.

There is no place like it & we have the top 5th largest economy in the World, aside from the USA, & the combination of that is so irresistible that even the staunchest of people have a hard time leaving.

I’m so proud to be a Californian & because of California, maybe I can become proud of the United States again & not AMERIKKKA as it is.

As a business owner, it’s become harder to grow a business when tariffs made rising costs rise more. And because I am a thoughtful & caring citizen of the World, decisions I make are not just based on where I’m physically located, I have a global mindset.

I’m THRILLED everyone showed up & voted yesterday, but our work is not done. I hope you consider that when you vote again in the next elections.

As a person that loves & is interested in World history, consider how certain choices in the past have turned out & how they will turn out again if you never learned the first lesson.

Please know that the struggles we have, we can take on together & eliminate certain issues when we think clearly about who can create a solution to those problems, while also voting-in, those that do not create more problems for us.

CALIFORNIA KNOWS HOW TO PARTY, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY WE KNOW HOW TO VOTE!!!
