Love Your Body To Wellness

Better than a red carpet, imho. 😉A bright orange carpet of Royal Poinciana flowers covering an entire corner on Hardie & Ingraham Hwy. Seen on my way back from teaching yoga this morning. Stopped the car to take a photo. I'm known for doing that. Nature on display. #flowers #nature #beautifulthings #coconutgrove #drivinghomefromyoga #detailoriented #summerinmiami #royalpoincianatree #iphonography #miamiflora #eyestopping

Red, white & blue 🇺🇸Organic chia pudding to go, with organic blueberries, blackberries, pomegranate, grain-free granola and almond milk. Post-teaching yoga breakfast. I can't teach with food in my stomach, except maybe a little coconut butter and green tea. I do lots of the poses with my students. Today's yoga class theme was "Make a Declaration of Independence from something that no longer serves you!" #breakfast #postyogameal #paleo #vegan, #raw #homemadefood #summerfruit #chiapudding #organicfood #berries #nutrientdense #integrativenutritionhealthcoach #loveyourbodytowellness #yogateacher #yogastudent #redwhiteandblue #justomyogastudio #glasscontainer #breakfast #intermittentfasting #antioxidantrich (at Just OM Yoga Studio)

A blood sugar balancing lunch of organic greens, carrots, zucchini spirals, sesame seeds, fresh basil, and wild caught tuna steak coated in sesame seeds, homemade vinaigrette. I definitely have blood sugar issues! I had a reading of 103 fasting glucose when the functional levels should be 78 to 88 😳 and according to traditional lab tasks my blood sugar levels were fine - NOT! Functional ranges are different and that's a good thing!! I truly believe if we all ate the way our ancestors ate, we would eliminate most of our health issues and then of course we have to move a lot more like they did, sit much less! #realfood #paleo #pescatarian #mediterranstylesalad #cleaneating #homemadefood #healthyfoodie #latelunch #organicproduce #wildcaughtfish #bloodsugarcontrol #BOSSsugardetox #functionalnutrition #integrativenutritionhealthcoach #loveyourbodytowellness #takingchargeofmyhealth

Welcoming & quaint organic gelato place @biancogelato I went to yesterday with my 3rd eldest daughter @miacarlyle after yummy yoga @dharmayogastudio and a delicious lunch @farinelli1937 She's also a healthy foodie, knows all the spots. I believe my yoga teacher mentioned it to me last year but I'd never been. We had delicious vegan gelatos with a gluten-free wafer. Charming space in the heart of the Grove. Also had a cup of a delightful and aromatic full leaf organic green tea blend. Love the decor, graphic design & menu. They have several dairy and gluten-free items. #organicfood #gelateria #coconutgrove #motherdaughterday #nongmo #healthyfoodie #glutenfree #dairyfree #springinmiami #aesthetic #newdiscovery (at Bianco Gelato)

Some of my holistic tools for fighting cold & flu. Feeling all better today! Teaching yoga @ommovement tonight @7pm. I also used lots of essential oils by @floracopeia like tulsi & eucalyptus in my home diffusers, in nightly detox baths and on my head, neck and feet plus spicy soups and loads of lemon water. Stay healthy! #holistichealth #naturalhealthcare #herbals #vitamins #vitC #vitD3 #gingertea #NAC #integrativenutritionhealthcoach #loveyourbodytowellness #essentialoils #yogateacher #yogastudentforlife

Cold & flu soup part 2. My @sunbasket box arrived yesterday afternoon and I dragged myself downstairs to make this Thai Shrimp and Rice Noodle Soup for dinner. I kept the vegetables from the broth they instructed me to discard. Throw away an entire bulb of ginger when I'm actively fighting something major off? No way! I ate most of the ginger slices last night as well as the lemongrass 😋 and onions. I also left the lime leaves pictured here in the soup overnight. Today I added some powdered ginger, turmeric and Aleppo chili flakes left over from another sunbasket meal. #integra to heat me up, burn 🔥🔥 this virus out!! 😷🤧Took a hot Detox bath last night with tulsi, eucalyptus & Oregano essential oils and found my ginger oil this morning. Rubbed my head and neck with it and placed some on the soles of my feet, under socks. Ironically I'm listening to the FBS Immune Intensive with my Functional Nutrition mentor, @andreanakayama this afternoon. #integrativenutritionhealthcoach #loveyourbodytowellness #healthyfoodie #coldandfluseason #realfood #glutenfree #organic #spicey #immuneboosting #wildcaughtshrimp #sunbasket #homemadefood #functionalnutrition #selfcare #naturalhealthcare #holistichealth #thaishrimpsoup #nutrientdense #antiinflammatory #pescatarian #inthekitchen #iphonography

One of Thailand's Nine Auspicious Trees and is said to bring good luck, ensure continued high rank and afford victory. A tree I came across at the end of a very challenging day this week. It certainly felt like a sign at the moment and led me down the street, to a favorite church we frequented when I was a young child; Church of the Little Flower. It's one of my favorite spring blooms in Miami. The beautiful Cassia Javanica or Pink Shower tree. This stunning tree decorates the landscape anywhere it grows. I've seen several around town and they never cease to enrapture me with their beauty. They also sweeten the air with a wonderful aroma. I wish to live in a place surrounded by trees and flowers. #springinmiami #floweringtrees #nature #beautifulthings #AprilinMiami #naturalist #engagedinmysurroundings #gardengoals #iphonography #bluesky #awake #aware (at Coral Gables, Florida)

The splendor of unfolding into its full expression is not just for nature or flowers, we were created to do the same. #unfolding #nature #flowers #spring #fullexpression #yoga #meditation #humanpotential #seekthelight #renewal #rebirth #transformation #reachinghigher #iphonography #walkswithmydog #stoppingtonoticebeauty #awake #aware #alive #beautifulthings #coconutgrove #springinmiami

A stunning new condominium building on Bayshore Drive, @Grove at Grand Bay Residences, has this LOVE sculpture in front of it. I'd love to live in this building! This sculpture is similar to the red one I've seen in NYC. To me, it's the symbol from the Love Story movie with Ryan O'Neal and Ali McGraw. One of my favorite movies as a teen. One I saw at least a dozen times and that left an imprint in me of what true love is and should be. Came across it on a late night walk with my dog this past weekend. I climbed up on a wall to photograph it. I'm sure I can capture it better by day, with the sun gleaming on it, and at sunset, so I'll aim to do that this week. Waiting for that kind of love, as long as it takes. #LOVE #waiting #notsettling #springinmiami #loveisintheair #loveisamanysplendoredthing #art #sculpture #bayshoredrive #coconutgrove #miami #believinginlove #callingitin #miamiarchitecture #iphonography (at Grove at Grand Bay Residences)

Collecting flowers and palm fronds, plants and plant parts, to make a flower mandala for tonight's Sister Circle @justomyogastudio in honor of International Women's Day. Thanks to the 2 different gardeners down the street, who cut things down for me or donated their palm frond cutting. One asked me what I was playing on my phone and I told him they were Mantras and that I'm making a mandala tonight with the palms and flower cuttings. I also have a branch from the ylang ylang tree, but placed it in a glass of water to preserve it. They seemed mesmerized by the mantra music honoring the Divine Mother my phone was emitting. 🙏🏼💚if you're coming and have any flowers to add to the mandala, please bring them with you tonight. Circle starts @7pm. #flowers #Nature #beautifulthings #walkswithmydog #internationalwomensday #sacredcircle #whenwomengather #palms #natureasart #mandalas #yogini #mantra #sacredsounds #mothernature #springinmiami #coconutgrove #naturalist #flowerlove
