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.

The love edition – Relationships

Since February is all about love and my love’s (Dan) birthday was February 13th I wanted to talk about relationships.  Since we aren’t perfect and it took a road to get here, I thought I would share with you my own journey, realizations and changes we both had to make to get where we are.  What I am about to talk about has helped change not only our relationship but my whole perspective and outlook on a relationship in general.

Fun fact. This is a group of women I met in my new Fun fact. This is a group of women I met in my new hometown. We ALL just had our first baby, we ALL have baby boys, and they were ALL born in February.  Insane, right?!After reading @shannonleyko book, “You’re Completely Normal” (my inspiration for this year)she talked a lot about having mom friends, and how important it is to have that type of support group.Being the first of most of my friends to have kids, I really wanted that.  A group of women in my town who I could go through this next chapter in life with.I met one of my mom friends, Courtney, on a walk in July and I immediately knew I wanted to be her friend.  She was the friendliest, bubbliest person I had ever met, and I was praying we would cross paths and become best friends.Then I found out in October, she was also pregnant with a boy.  Then she introduced me to two other women who ALSO were having boys, and get this, we were all due only weeks apart.Fast forward to today, we all had our babies in February and we all get together for weekly lunches while on maternity leave.I can’t begin to explain how much life this girl gang gives me.  We talk about all things baby, and not. And we walk away feeling, “okay I’m not alone in this.” I always feel seen, supported, loved, and recharged.It truly is such a gift, and I’m so grateful for it.Girl gangs are truly the greatest blessing. Whether that is through school, work, dance, your sport, your kids, your family.  They hold your hand and help you through that season of life.So this is kind of like a #wcw, but on a Friday?? For all the groups of women I have met throughout my life.You guys truly are just the best, thanks for carrying me through. 💛👭🏼#wcw

Every morning I stare at this little man for at LE Every morning I stare at this little man for at LEAST 45 minutes straight. Sometimes he’s awake and we talk, sometimes he gets a little flirty and sneaks out little smiles that make me giggle like a school girl, and sometimes I just watch him as he sleeps. 🤱🏼But seeing this little face every single morning is the best part of my day.Becoming a mom is by far the best thing that has ever happened to me in this lifetime.  I can’t even begin to explain the love that I feel for him and the joy that he brings me, and I would have never been able to guess or anticipate what this was going to feel like before he arrived.My prior self would cringe at how little I get done in a day, and wouldn’t understand or be able to comprehend how I could be so satisfied with being so unproductive... but I am.I am so happy and feel so full of love that nothing else matters. I’m sure eventually it will all catch up to me and I will care again. But for now I’m perfectly content with spending my time just sitting and staring. ☺️💛To those of you who like to read my blogs, I promise I will write one soon!! But in case you have been wondering, this is what I have been doing since he has arrived (along with the other mom things that caring for an infant entails😉)DM me or comment below what you would like to hear about next 😃

NEW BLOG!! “Body Talk”I was inspired to writ NEW BLOG!! “Body Talk”I was inspired to write this blog after listening to a podcast by Rachel Hollis and Amy Porterfield about how women feel about their bodies.I loved the podcast so much that I had to continue the conversation on my own platform, my blog.👩🏼‍💻My question to you is:Have you ever obsessed about your body?
Have you ever looked in the mirror and been unreasonably upset with what was looking back at you?
Have you ever felt like your worth comes from your appearance?
Have you ever spent an embarrassing amount of money on workout programs, cleanses, and diets to look a certain way?My response: Me too.Check out the blog and let’s dig in.#mindfulmillennial

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

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

Those who know me well are aware of how much I try to fit into my schedule on a daily and weekly basis.  I’m pretty much non-stop, all of the time.

Once he came along and plopped into my belly my whole world changed.

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.
