Just up-leveling my health game over here! The pandemic really took a toll on me- especially in the beginning. No more gym, no more physical socializing and lots of stress! LOTS of stress! You hear me, right? I was eating more in general but was not eating as healthy. My mental health was also suffering as we struggled to help our kids through this time, help them learn and fill their cups as best we could. Something needed to change. I needed to do something for myself so . . . I started running.
Seriously running. Not just a mile or two or three like I had previously, but long distances. Actually, I picked up a training plan for a half marathon. Along with that I began focusing on long term nutritional changes tailored to my unique make up. It seemed imperative due to the fact I was demanding more from my body.
I’ve been making sure I support my body with high quality supplements (dōTERRA’s LLV are amazing), been making a point to get the right amount of sleep and trying to employ all my mindfulness tools (these day this is sometimes difficult).
Here are some of the things I’m using to stay on track:
🦢 Lemon Essential Oil in my water
🦢 Fresh fruits and vegetables in my diet (sometimes fresh juice is in order- like for the next three days)
🦢 A GPS tracker to log my runs
🦢 Fitness band to track health stats
🦢 Mindfulness Meditation
🦢 Whole Food nutritional supplements (LLV)
🦢 Deep Blue for muscle soreness
🦢 Green Mandarin Essential Oil (dream big) in my diffuser at night
🦢 Therapy! (Please ask for help when you need it)
My point with all this is that it's totally possible to make positive changes during any crazy time in your life. If you want it, make it happen! I’ve transformed this time during isolation to be something that helps me really get more in tune with my body. How I feel physically, mentally and spiritually. So with that, here’s to a three day juice extravaganza! thanks @colleenbouchard for the recommendation on @squeezedonline! Day 1! Let’s go!
