Call me crazy, but Iโve never liked side profile pictures of myself....UNTIL NOW!!!
Iโve had my fair share of insecurities throughout my life, BUT when I saw THIS photo I fell in love with myself ๐ฅบ
I saw a beautiful, intelligent, vulnerable, determined, empathic, powerful, sensitive, strong woman! A woman who has never stopped or given up when times got hard. A woman who foundation deep desire to see others thrive and become the best version of themselves. A woman who created a life full of joy, love, passion, thatโs worth living. A woman that fully accepts and appreciates all her imperfections. Iโm proud of the woman Iโve become!
Donโt waste time hating yourself and perfecting yourself for others. Instead spend time loving and adoring yourself and surrounding yourself with people who love all of you too! ๐๐ฅฐ
Iโm so thankful for the friends, family, and clients I have in my life! They are a treasure! ๐๐ผ

ARE YOU READY FOR THIS?!?! ๐
Story time....The other day I was driving to work and I went to switch lanes in order to be in the middle and pass the car in front of me. Well, for a split second I hesitated because there was a car on the outside lane and I thought it was going to move into the lane I wanted at the same time. Well, they didnโt, but for that split second that I hesitated, I was looking forward and the car in front of me hit brakes. Thankfully I stopped in plenty of time.
On a side note, for those that know me, know that Iโm very intuitive, but this wasnโt an intuitive feeling, it was a hesitation! A hesitation that couldโve impacted me and others.
With that said, I began thinking, every time Iโve moved with intention Iโve always manifested exactly what my hearts desire was. When doctors told me I would never reheal my adrenals, well I did it! When people said I couldnโt fully reheal my diastasis recti, well I did that too!
I say all that to say, move with intention and youโll manifest what you so desire!

Isnโt finding balance all apart of life though? It has been for me and at times still is! Iโm such a go getter in every area of my life that Iโve learned that creating time for myself is vital to feeling balanced and happy in my life.

Oh this hit home WWWAAAYYY too much today! ๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ
As a nutritionist, personal trainer, business owner, mom, wife, and so much more...Iโm consistently on the GO! Iโm always trying to manage my work/life balance and in my head it seems to go over very well, until โ๐ผ thing slips and it all comes crashing down.
Itโs usually my sleep! Working on taking my business to the next level came with a slight price of a lack of sleep and that was NO good for my mental state. Like it says in the picture...sleep is necessary!
When I was on vacation, I can happily say I slept 9hrs every night...lol...didnโt workout, enjoyed the heck out of my food, had some drinks and allowed my body and mind the time to recover.
Remember...YOU ARE NECESSARY! Therefore, these items are necessary too! โบ๏ธ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
Please comment below and let me know Iโm not alone...๐๐ช๐ผ

Letโs discuss Alkalinity...
Alkaline foods must be consumed in order to provide nutrients the body needs to neutralize acids and toxins in the blood, lymph, tissues, and cells.
When pH balance inside the body is โout of balanceโ the body tries to correct that sensitive pH balance. That process shows up as uncomfortable symptoms, including colds, flues, allergies, diseases, viruses, and bacteria.
When the pH level in our body is unbalanced, almost any area of the body can be affected. For example, when the nervous system is affected it shows up in the form of the depression. When the cardiovascular system is affected, we could have heart disease or experience other heart-related problems, including thickening and hardening of the arteries, stroke, high blood pressure, and heart failure. When muscles are affected, we often feel fatigue and lack of energy. When skin is affected we age quicker than normal.
When the bodyโs pH level is โin balanceโ, the body reaches ideal weight and corrects negative health challenges naturally! ๐๐ช๐ผ

Happy Sunday ๐
Last but not least, eating fermented foods such as yogurt can help to keep your gut healthy, which actually in turn will help to improve your mental health and reduce stress levels.
The beneficial bacteria which are found in fermented foods such as yogurt actually have a direct effect on your brain chemistry and transmit positive mood and behavior regulating signals to your brain via the vagus nerve. ๐คช๐

Leafy, green vegetables should be a pivotal part of anyoneโs diet.
Along with helping to combat stress, leafy greens are full of nutrients and antioxidants which help to fight off disease and leave your body feeling healthier and more energized.
Dark leafy greens, for example spinach, are especially good for you since they are rich in folate, which helps your body to produce more mood-regulating neurotransmitters such as serotonin, which is a โfeel-goodโ chemical.
Making leafy greens a part of your diet will help you to feel happier and less stressed out overall.

Mmmm.....I love Pistachios! ๐
Did you know they are great for snacking on and can also help to combat stress and anxiety in the long term?
Studies have found that simply eating two small, snack-size portions of pistachios per day can lower vascular constriction when you are stressed, putting less pressure on your heart by further dilating your arteries.
Along with this, the rhythmic, repetitive act of shelling pistachios can actually be quite therapeutic! ๐

Who are my walnut lovers? โบ๏ธ๐
I absolutely love walnuts! I especially love to put them into my OATMEAL...๐
So, if youโre looking for a healthy snacking option which will help you to stay better in control of your stress levels, walnuts are a great choice.
There is no denying the sweet, pleasant flavor of walnuts and they can be a tasty snack for in-between meals or as part of a desert.
Walnuts are great for salads, or add them to a sweet treat such as coffee or walnut cake. ๐

I LLLLOOOOVVVVEEEE OATMEAL! Especially in the fall and winter!
Oatmeal is great in that it can be a filling comfort food, but also has a large number of healthy properties to actually make you feel better from the inside out.
Itโs a complex carbohydrate and eating it causes your brain to produce higher levels of the feel-good chemical serotonin, helping you to feel calmer and less stressed.
Studies have shown that kids who choose oatmeal for breakfast tend to be much sharper throughout the morning in school compared to kids who had alternative morning meals.

Happy MONDAY to all my meat eaters...lol...youโd be happy to know that, Grass-fed beef is not only kinder to the planet and to animals, itโs also good for people, too.
Grass-fed beef has a huge range of antioxidants, including beta-carotene and Vit-amins C and E, which can help your body to fight stress and anxiety. If youโre looking for more reasons to spend a little more money on organic, grass-fed beef, itโs also lower in fat than grain-fed beef whilst being higher in omega-3.
However, for my plant-based eaters, chickpeas, quinoa, beans and lentils have a lot of the same affects as well. ๐๐ช๐ผ

WooHoo....Its Chocolate Day! ๐๐คค
Itโs crazy to me to see that chocolate is usually seen as an unhealthy treat when there is an undeniable link between chocolate and our mood.
Studies have shown that eating chocolate can actually make you happier!!! ๐๐ช๐ผ
However, that doesnโt mean that you can start munching on chocolate bars every time you're stressed out ๐คฃ โ chocolate works best as a de-stressor when eaten in moderation and as part of a healthy and balanced diet/lifestyle.
Dark chocolate in particular is best for you, as it contains more flavonols and polyphenols, two hugely important antioxidants which can help combat stress, more than many fruit juices.
So, treat yourself to some chocolate this weekend! ๐

Of course, itโs not all about what youโre eating when it comes to managing stress; what youโre drinking can also alleviate or worsen the stress you're feeling. Drinking liquids which are high in sugars and caffeine, such as coffee, energy drinks or soda, can actually increase your stress levels if consumed regularly.
Chamomile tea has long been used as a natural bedtime soother, and it has also been used in clinical trials, which determined that chamomile tea is effective in reducing the symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder.
Continue to follow along with this 10-day series where every day I will be posting a new stress-fighting food! And check out the link in my bio for this full post.
