What kind of exercise is best? And how do you create (and stick to) a plan to move your body that’ll meet your goals- especially when you’re exhausted and busy as hell?
Breathwork’s not just a trend! It’s an effective stress management tool, especially if you’re short on time and have struggled with meditation.
Protein’s been popular in the news lately, and for good reason! It’s an essential macronutrient that serves multiple functions in the body. And it’s a key ingredient in any smart woman’s plan to recover from burnout and (re) establish good hormone balance. But, most women under-consume protein. In this blog post I explain WHY women need protein, HOW MUCH to eat, and WHAT SOURCES are best.
In this post I’m breaking down 1) what STRESS really is, 2) how to know if stress is making you SICK and TIRED, and 3) WHY stress causes so many health problems. You’ll learn about the stress response, cortisol, the HPA axis, and adrenal dysfunction. You’ll learn why “adrenal fatigue” is both real and fake. Plus how to heal your body if stress has you completely burnt out.
I’m letting you in on a little secret: if you want to reverse burnout and take control of your health and life, setting clear and consistent boundaries is an absolute requirement. Of course, it’s easier said than done! In this post I cover what boundaries are, why you need them, where and with whom you probably need them, and how to get started figuring out your boundaries.
Summer’s coming and with it comes the desire to feel light, to eat lighter, and to imbibe the fresh flavors and vibes of summer. Enter: Summer Green Smoothie. A nutritionally balanced smoothie you can enjoy for breakfast or as a snack. It gets its flavors from sweet mango and juicy lime. This recipe is plant-based, dairy-free, and gluten-free.
Totally plant-based, made from whole foods, and super delicious. It seems like every time I travel somewhere, I come back with lots of cooking inspiration. New recipes, new foods, new flavors… When I was in Costa Rica recently- a place I’ve visited quite a few times- I finally learned to make their signature rice and beans, Gallo Pinto. And guess what? It’s easy!
