🌸Spring has sprung! (Or getting there☀️!)

Eating in season isn’t only tastier, but also provides us with higher nutrient-density at a more cost-effective price. Incorporating natural, minimally-processed foods into our diets ensures that we get more of the good stuff and less of the added fats, sugars, added sodium.

Which of these do you choose to add to your diet this season? Let us know in the comments 👇🏼⬇️

Let’s break down the specifics of some of these benefits:

Asparagus - A prebiotic powerhouse! Being a good source of insoluble dietary fiber, asparagus helps feed the important gut bacteria and wash the bad out of your system!

Lemons - Lemon juice contains tons of antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber, which helps to boost the body’s metabolic rate and aid in detoxification. Try adding fresh lemon to a glass of water in the morning!

Radishes - High in fiber and phytonutrients, regular consumption of radishes can help promote healthy digestion. Eating these veggies can also help to relieve uncomfortable bloating and constipation!

Grapefruit - Grapefruits, like other citrus fruits, are high in Vitamin C. In fact, one whole grapefruit provides our bodies with 100% of its daily requirement! Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that will aid in immune health and fighting off illness.

Carrots - While carrots cannot improve vision, it can improve overall eye health. High in Vitamin A, carrots can help a symptom called ‘Dry Eye’ that is caused by this vitamin deficiency.

Arugula - This leafy green is rich in calcium, a mineral that is essential in strengthening the bones. Not only does is strengthen bones, but enhances muscle performance by promoting the flow of oxygen to the muscle.

✨Nourishing your mind, body, and soul starts with self-care!🌿 Let’s delve into the essentials:

🏃‍♀️ Movement Matters: Start your day with movement—whether it’s a brisk walk, yoga flow, or dance session. Find what lights up your soul and gets your body moving!

💧 Hydration Boost: Hydration is key! Sip on water throughout the day to replenish and rejuvenate every cell in your body. Aim for 64oz each day!

☕️ Mindful Choices: Make conscious decisions about caffeine and alcohol intake. Honor your body’s natural rhythms and support balance from within.

😴 Restful Sleep: Prioritize quality sleep to allow your body and mind the time they need to repair and regenerate. 7-9 hours a night should be plenty!

🥦 Personalized Nutrition: Speak with a doctor to craft a vitamin routine tailored to your unique needs. Ensure you’re fueling your body with the nutrients it craves for optimal health and vitality.

☀️ Sunshine Time: Don’t underestimate the power of sunshine! Just 15 minutes of soaking up those vitamin D-rich rays can uplift your mood and boost your energy levels.

⏰ In a world that’s constantly hustling, remember that self-care isn’t selfish—it’s a sacred act of self-love and preservation. By nourishing yourself, you’re better equipped to show up as your best self for your family and friends. 💫

Hi friends!

I am looking for ambitious, busy professional women who are struggling with consistency in their health goals to achieve true work.life.balance, to take my survey below. You’ve experienced burnout before and want to avoid it in the future. You love your families but let work responsibilities get in the way of feeling present or spending quality time with loved ones as much as you’d like.

You want to create healthier work boundaries but have a hard time saying no or feel your work is your only outlet. You recognize the importance of self care but have a hard time prioritizing yourself.

You want to create long lasting healthy habits and kick old ones that aren’t serving you, for good. And you are someone who understands the importance of eating healthy, exercising, practicing mindfulness techniques, and seeks out self help books or podcasts to help from time-to-time. If this sounds like you, I would be so grateful if you could take my survey.

It should only take about 2-3 minutes to complete :)

when I say this is my fave homemade potato salad, i mean it! i found it from the thug kitchen cookbook years ago and has been a staple- they’ve since rebranded as but have the same recipes- check out their bad mannered delivery on their recipes- it’s great! i highly recommend you try this vegan and amazing, herbed potato salad 🤤🥔🌿🥕

recipe below ⬇️ serves 4 (side dish)
1.5 lbs yukon gold or red potatoes (yukon featured here)
1 tsp dijon mustard
3 tbs white wine vinegar
2 tbs lemon juice (about 1 lemons)
¼ c extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves of garlic
1/3 c shredded carrot*
¼ c of chopped chives or green onions
¼ c chopped dill
s+p to taste

cut your potatoes into pieces. boil some water in a medium pot, add a pinch of salt, and the potatoes. boil them until you can easily stab a fork through one, like 10-15 minutes depending on the size of your potatoes.

while the potatoes cook, chop up the garlic. mix together the mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, oil, and garlic in a small glass. drain the potatoes and put them in a large bowl. add the dressing and toss it all together. add the carrots, herbs, and a little salt and pepper and mix them in. let the salad sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes so that the potatoes can soak in all the flavor. if it looks dry after that then add a little more vinegar and olive oil and stir.

(you can make the day before you go somewhere and keep it in the fridge- i personally feel most dishes are more flavorful this way!)

enjoy!!!

sleep habits + stress levels can be a vicious cycle 😴💤☁️

is a big topic and super important. i believe that sleep matters even more than your diet and exercise (I bet you never thought you’d hear me say that!) - if you aren’t sleeping well, your systems aren’t working properly, including digesting your food

we love🤍 our partner and their products to help promote ultimate relaxation and winding down so you can sleep peacefully. see a few below and read the full article at the 🔗

there is so much you can do with this versatile little fruit! smoothies, desserts, toasts, dips, mayo replacer, soups, salads, bowls and more! avo’s are a staple for me and here are a few reasons why…

🥑full of nutrients like: potassium, healthy fats, fibers, folate, protein, C, E, K, magnesium, copper and more
🥑antioxidants and anti-inflammatory defenses
🥑gut health
🥑keeps you full and satisfied- can lead to weight loss/management
🥑extra folate can be good during pregnancy
🥑more! just know that you can’t go wrong with 1/2 an avo daily 😋

🥑my only con with these lovely things is that their ripe window is very short. you have to master the art of picking them at the right time! i look for almost soft (unless im@eating it right away,) with their little nub still in tact and keep them out of the refrigerator and don’t buy too many at once

let’s talk about inflammation

inflammation is a good thing when the body needs its defenses to fight something off but can become chronic when it lasts too long in healthy tissues- leading to certain disease and illnesses

living an overall healthy lifestyle with whole foods, minimal alcohol, no ci******es and moderate exercising can help keep inflammation levels low. read the full article for a few tips at the 🔗

july orders will wrap up next week and go out the 25th. get your July order in before then or for next month
