When you’ve had a really stressful day what’s the first thing you do? Do you go home and have a cup of wine? Maybe you go home and go straight to bed? Do you call up a friend or your significant other and vent to them? Or are you the type to keep it all bottled in, letting it slowly die down and leave your system?

I’m a mixture of all of these but more so the last option than the rest. Dealing with stress is a big deal for me especially because it seems to be a part of my daily routine. While I am not complaining at all about the life I was given, I do recognize that stress just comes with the territory of caring for children and chasing entrepreneurship. As a result of this I’ve also learned that it’s really important for me to engage in self-care a lot more often that I use to do in the past.

If you stress on a regular basis, and honestly even if you don’t, then daily or at the very least weekly self-care is a must for you! It helps you re-center yourself, rediscover your purpose in life, and most importantly it’s a great way to remind yourself that you are a priority. I truly do believe that we cannot give the best version of ourselves to others if we are not treating ourselves with the highest of priorities.

Self-care is a must for anyone especially on stressful days. Today I’m sharing with you some of my favorite self-care activities for a stressful day. [Read more…]

3 Ways to Improve Your Health and Fitness by Hiking

Hi guys! So, I’ve got some exciting news to share with you all.

I went hiking for the first time ever this past weekend! It was everything that I imagined it would be and so much more. It was so refreshing being a part of nature, away from technology and the noise that brings the city to life, and I really enjoyed not feeling tempted to check my phone at least once every hour. In fact, I enjoyed not having this pressure on me so much that I didn’t even bother to take that many pictures!

(Sorry! But really not sorry 😉).

Although I do wish that I did because it was such a beautiful sight.

But all that silliness aside it was really such a fun and amazing experience. I’ve always wanted to go on a hike but I never wanted to do it alone. So, this past weekend my older brother, his girlfriend, and I decided that we would go on a hike and that’s what we ended up doing.

As a first-time hiker I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I was expecting it to be challenging but not as challenging as it was. And let me just tell you that it was extremely challenging!

There were so many inclines, rocks, and tree stumps in the road that made getting up the incline hard. But once you got past that it got somewhat easier to walk, but as would be my luck it was only short lived before it was back to another incline. I got close to seeing a waterfall in person, I saw two families of deer, a ton of chipmunks, and was among bears in the wilderness even though we did not directly encounter them (thank God!).

This was such a fun and amazing experience that challenged me to get out of my comfort zone, and I ended the day discovering new ways to improve on my health and fitness. That’s what today’s post is about. I’m going to share with you 3 ways that you can improve your health and fitness by hiking. [Read more…]

Get Fit & Healthy Fast with These 6 Health Tips!

Have you ever wondered what it feels like to be 100% comfortable in your own skin? To love the skin you’re in, to be accepting of everything that makes you, you? From your hair all the way down to your tippy toes, can you honestly say that you love every single little aspect of what makes you uniquely you?

If yes, well then kudos to you! If no, you are not alone!

I’ve spent most of my life feeling this way and even as a grown ass adult there are still moments when I just don’t like what I see. It’s not necessarily an insecurity problem it’s more so of a self-care problem. Being insecure about who I am and what I look like is a thing of the past. Now a days, it’s all about what I’m doing to look and feel my best.

A lot of the insecurities that I find that I have with myself today are the result of just not taking care of myself. Whether that’s working out, eating better, meditating, doing skin care, or even maintaining a healthy social life, I truly do believe that when I get nitpicky about my image it’s because I’m not doing my best to take care of myself. Chances are this may be the case for you too.

One thing that I cannot stress enough is the importance of loving yourself from the inside out. I know in today’s world it’s so easy to get caught up in the idea that what you present on the outside is so much more important than what you have to offer on the inside. This is the result of social media and the unrealistic expectations that we encounter on a day to day basis. However, I’m here to tell you that what’s on the inside counts A LOT MORE than what’s on the outside.

When we feel our best, we will naturally look our best. And while being healthy and looking good isn’t about getting chiseled abs, big butts, perky breasts (even though this is often times what is promoted through social media), it is about loving yourself and living your life unapologetically.

I truly do believe that the best approach to reaching this point in your life is by committing to getting fit and living a healthier lifestyle. This isn’t a change that can and will happen overnight, it will take time, and you will have to commit, but it’s a change that’s worth making. The best part is that you can start making that change right now! [Read more…]

30 Day Fitness Challenge: Why Your Health & Wellness Matters

by

Hi guys!

This past month I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about how I can best serve you with this blog. I sent out a survey earlier in the month (you only got it if you are subscribed to my newsletter) asking you all what type of content you would like to see more of on the blog. To no surprise it was more content related to fitness.

Specifically, you mentioned that you’d like to learn more about exercises that are great for strengthening target areas, such as the abs, butt, legs, etc. While the thought alone did seem a bit overwhelming at first, I am actually very happy that you would love to see more content like this. I love working out, it is one of my favorite ways to engage in self-care and de-stress, so here’s what I’ve decided to do.

I decided to challenge myself, as well you as, and create a 30-day fitness challenge!

Before we dive into more details about the challenge, I want to talk to you about why your health and wellness matters. [Read more…]

The Best High Protein Foods for Snacks and Meals

by

Today I have a guest post from Emily.

When you’re putting together some food to eat, you want to always have tasty foods to choose from. Everyone wants to eat the best meals, but it’s even more important to consider the nutritional value of what’s on your plate.

In order to live your best life, you need to get all your daily nutrients. That starts with a solid foundation of protein.

If you’re eating enough protein during the day, you’ll feel more energized and able to accomplish anything. You won’t struggle with constant hunger thirty minutes after you eat, and you won’t even have those three o’clock nap urges.

So how do you get enough protein in your daily diet anyway? It all comes down to what you buy at the grocery store. Check out these best high protein foods for snacks and meals so you know that everything you eat will have the proper fuel to keep you going throughout the day. [Read more…]
