Post Partum Feels
Now that the third trimester has finally ended, welcome to the fourth trimester! This one is all about mommy. Alongside dealing with body issues like post partum bleeding, cramping, sore and engorged boobs, you also have to worry abut maintaining your sanity. The next few months are crucial as a new or once again mom because they set the tone for YOU. When I first had Nolan, I had no idea about natural ways to fight post partum depression and remember nights/early mornings up with a crying baby wondering how was I ever going to do it. Thankfully as the months went by, I chose (and still continue to do…

Coconut Milk Quinoa Breakfast
This week has been bananas, but thankfully the weekend is here, and now that my Earth Day event at Kindbelly has passed, I can relax with my family.

We started our garden inside with seedlings and now that Derrek put chicken manure in my raised beds, we can plant away! Nolan is super excited about watering the garden and watching its daily process… I really…

Good Morning
I’ve gotten a few questions about what type of skin care routine I have. Every morning, I have the same routine. I normally wake up at least an hour before the kids do so I can have some “me time.” This is really important to me because I am with them pretty much 24/7, and this mama needs some space to keep my calm. The first thing that I do after brushing my teeth is washing my face. I used to only wash my face after I took a bath a night which was really dumb because throughout the night my face would get really oily and I would end up…

Fresh Juice
I’ll be the first one to say that I love juicing, eating lots of fresh seasonal foods and taking care of my body, but that doesn’t mean I’m going on a juice-only diet. From where I stand, I would rather incorporate juicing into a seasonal-based, clean diet because this is what makes me feel my best. So, let’s talk juicing. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS? Drinking fresh vegetable juice allows you to consume more fresh vegetables, which we all know are full of good things like vitamins, minerals, and beneficial enzymes. Fresh vegetable juice is very alkalizing, meaning that it helps to strengthen the body and keep it healthy. I’ve also…
