Two Ways To Instantly Add Veggies To Your Meals!

Two Ways To Instantly Add Veggies To Your Meals!

Sometimes we get stuck in this hamsterwheel of thinking the only way to add vegetables to our diet is by eating a salad. Now, I love salad as much as the next person (Okay, maybe a little bit more...), but after a while, the crunch and creaminess of the experience can lose its flair.

But worthy of what? Exhaustion? Frustration? Half-hearted work, done by flying by the seat of your pants because you have "too much to do?"

Let's debunk the noble notion of busy-ment, and create some actual movement with things that matter most to you- and create some meaning and lasting joy in all reaches of your life!

The Strength Of Your Limitations

The Strength Of Your Limitations

In 2018 when I had developed a heart condition because of my incorrect nutrition, exercise and recovery practices, I felt like I was being held back from doing things I really needed and wanted to do. What I learned is that I am not held back at all, but these limitations have become a strength to me in creating and maintaining balance. And this has helped me to create a strong and thriving life that I believe I would not have otherwise experienced!

The same goes for you- you may have things in your life you feel are keeping you from being "healthy"; could you actually use these limitations as strengths to create true health because of them? Whether that's having Diabetes, life in a wheelchair, a disease or syndrome that has stopped you from feeling you could be healthy. How can you use it to your advantage? Make it a strength, and see your health soar!
