Yes, it’s a little late to be talking about breakfast but cheers to the rest of the world out there who is still running on theirs like I’m still running on mine 🤪 crazy day today, running on 5 hours of sleep, booked for a full week solid and starting up this studying thing again. Breakfast is definitely an essential meal to break your nights’ fast after sleeping and getting the brain functioning properly / awake for all its functions and skills it will use throughout the day. Breakfast is a secret to getting ahead and done right, can power you straight through to 5pm like mine did today 😅 #number7 #topten (at South Lake Tahoe, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqLpwLhHSkq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17ixr5dc58nkd

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF Two Fridays ago I made a rookie mistake and - long story short - ended up in a stressful situation with someone squatting in my house for a week. It was awful. During a time I wanted to wind down from the year all the sudden a moocher was in my living room with my other guests, binge watching trashy reality-TV. On top of the stress of daily life, situations like this can disrupt mental and emotional well-being and be a source of chronic stress, which both deteriorate physical and emotional state. Reasons like these are exactly why I took weeks to step back and take the time to take salt baths, hang out in the jacuzzi, stretch, and withdraw to bed with a good book to calm my mind and intentionally relax. It was two Fridays ago, but it was only yesterday I was able to feel fully recovered from the stress of having someone breaking every rule in my house and ended up laughing for hours with a guest from out of town (An East Coaster!!) and fully move forward again. It was a rookie mistake, but it’s the bounce back that counts. (at South Lake Tahoe, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqLOV38HxN5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1r29djyapcrub

SALT Comedian Dave Chappelle recently said “Do you know what’s killing more black people than the police? Regular table salt.” .. and all jokes aside, he’s not wrong. If you want to live long & prosper throw away that table salt and replace it with Celtic, Himalayan, Sea Salt or anything else besides table salt that takes 2x its volume just to get it out of your system and dehydrates & ages you. Salt is one of the easiest things to get replace and should be one of the first things to go if you’re serious about avoiding the repercussions of the SAD diet and why it’s a #topten tip https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpaqnyun9NT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d3h2izyobqsp

MINDSET. This one speaks for itself pretty much. It’s been drilled into our heads since we were kids, of course, but in lifestyle and in life your attitude 100% determines how far you will go. I have yet to meet a close-minded millionaire. And personally, I’ve never accomplished any goal until I was committed and passionate, so I make sure to stick with my #values when it comes to my diet and exercise choices because one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to scheduling, habits and taste buds. Make a choice and stick to it! Like tacos?Find a way to make the most delicious #meatless tacos there are so your arteries stay unclogged. I grew up on pasta, and now if I want pasta, I’m going for the #glutenfree pasta so the white flour doesn’t add excessive calories and/or make me bloated. Attitude pays off! #mindstrong https://www.instagram.com/p/BpX4vrZBYxU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=geerjbcqrvn2

JUICE! Juice is up there on the #topten list simply because fresh juice is one of the best things one can consume. The juicing process extracts the fiber from fruits & veggies, which allows the nutrients to bypass the digestive system and go STRAIGHT to the blood, essentially acting as a dose of nutrients in a direct, fast & bioavailable way. Fiber is great and essential, but in today’s world an extra dose of nutrients directly to the source is ALWAYS a good thing which is why #juice is one of the top ten (worst kept) secrets to a healthy life 😉 (at South Lake Tahoe, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpVZno9BQGv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1j4j9a111owqd
