What I am looking forward to this Fall

One thing I absolutely LOVE about living in New England is that the season’s change. This summer is my favorite season of all but it was weird, probably for most of us. To keep myself excited about the upcoming season I wrote a list of all the things that I am looking forward to. This year I am appreciating all of the change in a whole new way.

“Stay-cation” 2020

Every year the thing I most look forward to is my summer vacations. I typically take a couple of long weekends here and there and then I take off one full week vacation with Dan or my family. It’s my absolute favorite and I look forward to it every year. But this year things look a little different.

Ways To Stay Healthy While Stuck At Home

I truly believe that having a healthy body and mind are fundamental pillars to success. This is why today and every day I make it my priority to put my health above all else. Times like this, when we are stuck in a space and out of our typical routines are the most important times to keep going towards our goals. Keep sticking with our healthy habits and moving forward.

The reminder we ALL need: Stop and Smell the Flowers

The entire world is in a panic.  Our entire world is fighting and protecting and preventing their loved ones from getting sick.  And I understand and support ALL of that. We need to take precautions to make sure this virus doesn’t spread or get worse.   But we also need to take precautions and actions to keep our souls safe, to keep our hearts and minds at ease.  Read on about my rant on how to do so.

What I Learned From Yoga Training

You HAD to know that a reflective and emotional blog was coming your way as soon as you found out I was going for my 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training. I love learning and trying new things and then talking about them. It’s partially why I even started this blog. So, of course, I was going to share this experience with you. =]

Karma in Puerto Rico

My sister and I just went on a yoga retreat in Puerto Rico and had an amazing time. At the beginning of the retreat, our teachers said that their theme of the week was this idea of “Karma”. We all create karma every day because karma is an action NOT a result. I have a fun story to share with you from our trip, that shows that life is what you make of it.

NEW BLOG!! “Heathy Alternatives”Since Januar NEW BLOG!! “Heathy Alternatives”Since January is the most commercial month for #healthgoals I thought I would jump on the bandwagon and write about some of my favorite healthy alternatives.This year is my year of NOT being an extremist.  I find most of the time I get too crazed about something, or too extreme it ends up back firing in some way.As I talked about in my last blog, you don’t have to be extreme, just consistent when reaching toward your goals.Keeping up with these #healthgoals all year long means that we have to have realistic expectations for ourselves.For me, that means having healthier options or alternatives for some of the foods I love most.  This makes it easier for me to stay on track with my health goals and , more importantly, less miserable while doing it.Check out my blog for some of my favorite heathy alternatives, and then do us all a favor and share with us some of yours!! Sharing is caring!! 😉#mindfulmillennial

NEW BLOG!! “How to Follow Through on your 2021 g NEW BLOG!! “How to Follow Through on your 2021 goals”I saw this quote on Pinterest and was just like 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻. So naturally I had to write a blog about it. 💁🏼‍♀️I am all about setting big ambitious goals.  I am a dreamer and believe that you can do anything you set your mind to.✨But I also know from experience, that often times in the new year we can get carried away with what we are going to do to get to those goals.We set these unrealistic expectations for ourselves thinking that the only way to accomplish those goals is to be a total hardo and extremist.☠️🤟🏻
Forgetting that it’s the small attainable consistent habits we create that are the real drivers for success.This weeks blog is all about that.  What I do to not be extreme but just consistent in the pursuit of my dreams.Share with me some of the small goals you have set for yourself this year🙋🏼‍♀️#mindfulmillennial

New blog!! “How to Plan for 2021”If you didn New blog!! “How to Plan for 2021”If you didn’t know this already, I totally geek out 🤓 getting ready to plan and dream what I want to accomplish in the New Year.I’m not exaggerating, it’s one of my favorite things to do, like ever.💁🏼‍♀️So when that week between Christmas and New Years rolls around, your girl is taking an audit of the prior year and then dreaming, writing, meditating, and goal setting on what I want to work towards in the year to come.👩🏼‍💻Nothing makes me feel more on fire than setting a new goal.Except this year it felt a little different.I was still excited, but because of the year we just had, I also had the lingering feelings of disappointment, uncertainty, and a fear of dreaming too big.  All of the things you DONT want to feel when heading into a new year of possibilities.So this year I took a different approach to how I am planning my 2021.  I didn’t go into it guns a blazing, but took small steps that ultimately got me excited and ready to plan for the new year.I wanted to walk you through what I did to pump myself again, in case you too are finding it a little bit difficult to get excited for the New Years goals.Check out the blog and let me know what you think!!🙋🏼‍♀️Also if your thinking it’s too late because the new year has already begun, it’s not. 🙂 it’s never too late to set a new goal, even if it’s on a random Tuesday. Plus I KNOW that many of you started your “Dry January” a little late too..so it’s pretty much the same thing. 😉#mindfulmillennial

Dear 2020, You weren’t exactly my favorite year Dear 2020, You weren’t exactly my favorite year ever... but a lot of good came with all the bad. So I do want to thank you... Thank you for all the lessons I learned, the change in my perspective, and for the many many gifts you sprinkled in along the way.  I appreciate you for all that were and all that you taught me.To the year 2021, We welcome you with open arms and open hearts.  I have very low expectations for you, so that’s a good place to start, but I have every confidence you too will bring many lessons I need to learn, opportunities to change my perspective, and gifts sprinkled in along the way.  Just maybe package it a little differently if you wouldn’t mind. 😉Cheers to another year around the sun.May we always learn from the lessons, are given the opportunity to change our perspective, and are able to see the gifts we are given along the way💛#mindfulmillennial

New blog!! “The Final Push”We are FINALLY in New blog!! “The Final Push”We are FINALLY in the last days and weeks of 2020. Thank you baby Jesus!!For many of us this means closing out the year and trying to give that final push in business, work, and sales before the new year begins.Last week I found myself thinking “okay, how much time do I actually have left in the year to close things out?, and what can I actually accomplish in that timeframe?”This was not the year that ANY of us could have anticipated or guessed.  So when looking at the goals we set for ourselves in the beginning of the year, and then comparing to how far we have gotten may be a bit depressing.This week’s blog walks you through exactly what I am doing to get through that “final push” of the year, so that I can get across the finish line feeing like I did the best that I could.Check it out!!💁🏼‍♀️#mindfulmillennial

Please attempt to ignore the messy room... this wa Please attempt to ignore the messy room... this was the first real “bump” picture that I took randomly on a Sunday a couple weeks back.It was the first time I was like “oh shit, I really look pregnant now.”There have been many “oh shit..” moments throughout my entire pregnancy.Some of these moments have been when I first realized I was actually pregnant, or when I first experienced morning sickness, when sleep no longer came easily to me, the intense back pain that lasted unrelenting for weeks, realizing that rest and accepting help are crucial to survival..They have all been moments when I have been overcome with the realization that I am no longer in control, but this beautiful baby boy has taken the driver seat and I was just here for the ride.It hasn’t all been pretty, glamorous or very fun at times, (an obvious peak into my future) but I wouldn’t have changed one bit of it either.He hasn’t even come yet, and I already love him so much and know that he will totally rock our worlds.But these “oh shit” moments have been good lessons to me to remind me that good things  come with time and you have to endure the ‘not so fun’ times to get to the beautiful and miraculous ones.I needed that reminder myself this week, so I thought I would share it with you.
Good things come with time.
Big changes aren’t always bad.
Let go and let it be, and enjoy that bumpy ride because you are headed somewhere great ☺️#mindfulmillennial

Tomorrow is also Thanksgiving, the one day every year we are all given time to stop and give thanks for the year we have had.
.
Looking back on this dumpster fire of a year, you might think to yourself , “what went right?” But something always went right.
.
There is always a silver lining among the clouds, we just need to find it.
.
This Thanksgiving, I challenge you to find something you are grateful for that happened during it all.  I challenge you to find your silver lining during this cloudy year.

Before he has even officially arrived, he is teaching me a very important lesson.

.
I posted this on my blog earlier this week, but didn’t want to post about it on social because of every thing going on with the election.
.
Now that we have turned the page and are at the beginning of a new chapter, we can all take a deep breath, and focus on other things.
.
The most important thing for me has always been my health.
.
Everyday I make a conscious effort to do what’s best for my body.
.
During hard and stressful times it’s easy to give yourself excuses and let your health take a back seat. When in reality that’s the time to hone in on your health, so it can help you get through the hard stuff.

#vote . I wanted to give a little shoutout and ap #vote
.
I wanted to give a little shoutout and appreciation post to this guy right here.  He may look like a serial killer in this picture, but I promise he is far from it (swipe right 🙂)
.
Today he did everything he could to make sure we did out part and cast our vote. He made sure we were registered in our new town, set our alarm for 5:30 am so we could make it to the polls, helped me zip up my winter coat over my growing belly, and right before we went in to vote he reminded me to "fully fill in the bubbles so your vote will count."
.
This man has taught me so much when it comes to the world of politics.  He always makes sure that I understand both sides of an argument before I make my decision and he truly believes we live in the greatest country in the world, and that we are lucky to live here.
.
Today is a bit of a stressful day for a lot of us in many ways.  
.
I pray to all the angels and gods that the candidate I voted for wins this election.
.
But what brings me peace is this man right here.  Knowing that my unborn son will have a man like Dan McGrath to look up to as a father.  He will see what true kindness is.  He will learn that you help the little guy.  He will understand that all are equal, and that we need to take care of this beautiful world we live in.  He will learn to always give a helping hand.  He will learn to be able to admit when you are wrong, but to always stand up for what you believe in.  
.
Dan is my/our own personal Captain America.  
.
Regardless of what happens for this election, I at least know my unborn children will have him to look up to.  They will see what a true leader looks like.  What America stands for, and for that I am grateful.
.
I believe we all have our own “Captain America” in our lives.  Look up to them, follow them, support them, and if you can’t find them, become them.  
.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
This week’s blog!! “Say “Yikes...” and MOV This week’s blog!! “Say “Yikes...” and MOVE ON!”
.
.
This is pretty much my life mantra now.
.
.
When something doesn’t go as planned, or you try and fail, and maybe you even look like a fool. Just say “yikes..” and then move on.
.
.
This isn’t just a mindset, but a way of living.
.
.
It’s not easy to get here, but it’s very freeing once you do.

Just like I love getting into the Christmas Spirit (which is only 93 days away- 🎄weird), this Fall I really wanted to dive right into those Fall feelings.

This was a weird summer for a lot of us in a lot of ways.  There were so cancellations and things put on hold that it left a sour taste in my mouth.

I am looking at Fall as a turning point, a new beginning.  A chance to get excited about what is to come.

So I am diving right in with those excited feelings and writing about all the things I am looking forward to this Fall.  Check it out and see if you get any new ideas for your own Fall Fun list. ☺️🍁🍂
