Healthy Mother And Baby

Today I had a quick snack at Nordsee. It was the smoked salmon wrap. Nourishing and healthy, it helped keep my blood level stable ( I am breastfeeding so I have to pay attention to it). When you buy a snack then it should not have too many ingredients on its label, otherwise it is only junk food.

I fell in love with Yoga. I started to take Yoga classes in my last semester of pregnancy. It was my midwife who recommended it to me. I was always a very active person but not very flexible. Yoga helped me to discover that we can always evolve both mentally and physically. I really feel proud of myself, now when I see that my Yoga teacher uses me to explain different poses( and please keep in mind that I gave birth like less 12 months ago, so you have no excuses :))))).

What a bless! This is my boy on the day of his baptism! It’ s been a while since I last posted something. I’ve bern busy with my new life ( I became a mother almost 1 year ago). Busy or rather I felt overwhelmed. It’s hard to admit that this new chapter of my life challenged me both mentally and physically, but helped me to understand that sometimes you need to slow down and take a break, otherwise your health can be affected. The power of sleep/ rest is incredible and should not be underestimated. As a mother I learned, in the hard way, that you need to have a clear mind in order to have a happy baby.

I like this bracelet from Fitbit. It sets you in motion. On days when you feel lazy and sedentary it motivates you to take the stairs instead of the elevator and not to drive but walk around town instead.

Eat the healthy fats for shiny hair and skin. You will find them in avocado, nuts, greek yogurt, salmon. Soon you are going to buy less complexion cream and hair conditioner.

Try to STAY AWAY from weird FOOD COMBINATION Here some basic rules: no cheese and meat on the same plate, get your proteins from only one animal source at a time, if you like you can have eggs together with cheese but no other exceptions. Your LIVER will say thank you AND moreover you will KEEP your WEIGHT STABLE.

Take your time and have breakfast no matter how early you wake up. I personally prefer an omelette made of ORGANIC eggs seasoned with some spices. This should warm you up and provide plenty of energy. SKIP the BREAD as this will only make you feel tired. If it works for you too do your exercises before eating. It helps BURN more calories.

Start your day with a relaxing stretch. This should boost your energy.

Smile everyday because you have good reasons to do it. Smile helps reduce stress and improves your mood (even fake smile will do the trick). So come on, LIFT UP THE CORNERS OF YOUR MOUTH.
