Summer Morning Routine 2020

Hey friends! I know I’ve been MIA most of this year. With everything that has happened, I thought it would be best to take a step back from my accounts and blog. Things are still very far from “normal” but I’ve decided it’s time to make the most of it, so I’m back to posting! For my first post in a while, I’ll be sharing an updated version of my morning routine, summer edition.

How to Wear Basics and Look Stylish Every Day

I think we’ve all been there: a closet full of clothes and yet you still can’t find a single outfit to wear. I go through this far too often so I’ve been trying to figure out how exactly to fix this issue without a full closet clean-out and splurge to buy a new wardrobe, because let’s face it, clothes are not exactly cheap and it adds up.

Having a wardrobe consisting of mainly basics is…

Morning habits everyone should have

Everyone has their own morning rituals. From sleeping in an extra ten minutes, morning coffee and devotionals or a quick workout, we all have some sort of routine to start the day. Morning habits can actually determine our day, so it’s best to have good habits so the day starts off right.

Hydration

You know that thirsty feeling you have the moment you wake up? That’s your body telling you…

Tips to Stay Motivated in 2020

According to the New York Post, 80% of new year’s resolutions fail by February, with 55% of resolutions being health-related. It’s no secret that most people start off the new year in a “go hard or go home” mindset that often burns out before the first month of January is even over. I’ve had it happen to me too. You feel that rush of a fresh start and push yourself so hard with so much that you…

Closet Cleanup in 5 Simple Steps

There’s no better way to start a new year than with a clean space. That includes the dreaded closet clean-out. I personally do this every few months so at this point it’s a routine and no longer a chore I hate doing. I also find that it’s helped me to realize how much money I have wasted on clothes due to emotional stress. This year I want to change that, but I’ll save that for another blog post!…

I Gave up Coffee for 30 days and Here's What Happened

I’m not entirely sure how it happened, but when the new year started I made the spontaneous decision to stop drinking coffee. I’ve never really been an “addict” but coffee had become an every day ritual in my daily routine, as I’m sure it is for most people.

Coffee was never the first thing I would have in the morning, but rather a midday pick me up before breaking my fast. I always made a…

7 Tips to Be More Productive

In a world where being overwhelmed and overworked is the norm, it’s common that people go through phases regarding productivity. Whether it’s at work, school or even just daily personal tasks, everyone faces that lack of motivation at some point. Sometimes it feels like you’re constantly busy but nowhere closer to your goals and with no time for yourself at the end of the day. Sound familiar? I…

Stop Comparing Yourself to Others

I’ve been struggling with anxiety and comparison recently. It’s nothing new, I think we all go through phases of feeling insecure and vulnerable. Have you ever just doubted yourself or your dreams? It’s not a great feeling, especially when you know deep down that there’s no reason for your fears or doubts. Most of the time when I feel insecure, I know in my heart that it’s just lies from the…

Yoga is one of my favorite ways to workout. I’ve actually only been doing yoga for exercise the past few weeks and have noticed some amazing results so i wanted to write a quick post on some benefits yoga may have for anyone who wants to try it!

Physical Benefits

Yoga is amazing for increasing flexibility. When I was little I did ballet for 5 years which helped me with flexibility but…

Hey babes! The first month of 2020 is almost over and that means it’s time for a “favorites” post. I’m not someone who spend tins of money on new products or trendy items at all so if I do try something new, it’s something rare. Especially regarding makeup and skincare due to my skin being extremely sensitive to ingredients and breaks out at the slightest irritation. I also made a deal with…

How To Re-organize Your Life

This month has been all about goals and achieving them and everything new so I thought why not continue the theme. What better way to start the new year than an early spring-clean? Starting fresh is so much easier when everything around is organized. There’s nothing more satisfying to me than organizing. It can be my room, my notebook, my makeup, anything at all. Sorting out the environment…

I absolutely LOVE smoothie bowls. They’re refreshing, sweet, smooth and packed with nutrients if made right! My obsession started when I went fully raw the beginning of this year. I started experimenting and trying new combinations until I found how to make the perfect smoothie bowl EVERY TIME! Before I share my not-so-secret recipe, I want to go into detail of why smoothie bowls are so amazing…

How Dark Chocolate May Benefit Your Health

I used to have a serious sweet tooth until about 2 years ago when I suddenly lost all taste for sugary treats, including chocolate. Mostly it was due to the fact that I had started eating so healthy that my taste buds just hated the taste of foods that are bad for me. Recently however I’ve started adding a little bit of dark chocolate to my diet at the end of my meals. Not a lot, maybe just a…

An in depth look at what they are and what their functions are

You often hear or read about the importance of macros and how important it is to find the right balance. While macros are very important, what most people don’t tend to focus on enough is micronutrients. In this post I’m going to go into detail of each food group and hopefully make it easier to understand why it’s vital to not only…

What I Eat in a Day to Stay Fit and Lean

I love food! I love learning about how food impacts our bodies and finding new ways to combine foods in a healthy but tasty manner. My diet often seems very restrictive to people because I eat little to no processed foods. I like to make my food from scratch and know exactly what’s in every meal I eat. Obviously I have a treat now and again but for the most part I stick to what makes me feel good…

Are you following a healthy diet and exercising regularly but still aren’t seeing results? Maybe you’ve been living an active lifestyle for quite some time but just can’t seem to shed that last bit of fat on your stomach or thighs. I’m sure everyone deals with some frustration at some point during their fitness journey and it’s hard not seeing the results you are working for.

Now that the new…
