What you should be reading this week.

You are all so wonderful! Keeping with me for yet another loooooooong week! Have you gotten many productive things done? Me~ well…..

Let’s just skip that question, grab our usual (mug of tea or coffee or a nice big glass of Vino ~depending on your time zone!) & get to reading what I think is fabulous this week!

(I’m having a smoothie because I just kicked a 16k run ~in preparation for my 1/2 Marathon next week~eeekkkk!!!)

anyways….

I was pondering putting this first post up. It talks about having a plan when you want to start getting healthy. It makes total 100% sense! But then again, that’s why I’m here :) I’m your go~to girl for the Health Plan! But, I decided to put it up here because I’m first & foremost here to help. If this helps, then I’ve done my job, if you need or want more help, then I’m here for you too!

I know I’ve put up posts like this before, but being present is such an important tool that we all need to have become a habit. I can’t stop reading these posts, I can’t stop sharing them. Enjoy!

This is the time of year when we are all working our butts of to have sexy abs, behinds, arms. We get haircuts, & shorts. But what about our skin? Get it ready for summer here!

I sadly know too many people who have decided that Divorce is the path they need to take. I’m not here to judge, but I’ll admit that it makes me very very sad. If you are in this situation, maybe this article will help.

Liz has a great post about living with Grace. It reminds me of the fabulous Louise Hay & Cheryl Richardson!

Sarah has amazing recipes on her site all the time. But this Chocolate caught my eye. I still haven’t tried it, but I will. & when I do, I will eat them all!

As I’m still kinda ‘training’ for my 1/2 next week, this article about recovery is pretty interesting!

What have you read this week that you think needs sharing? I’m off to do more work on my day off, but it’s good work! Fun work! Work I love!

Have a great weekend, & Happy Fathers Day to all you Dad’s out there reading this too!

Great Read’s for your Weekend Pleasure!

Ah, another Weekend is upon us. What are your fabulous plans Lovely Followers? Do share please as I am working all weekend :(

So, why don’t we take a moment to grab a mug of Tea or Coffee, a glass of Fresh Pressed Juice or Wine & settle in for some great reads!

& Speaking about tea, Kris at Crazy Sexy Life has an article about it! (& here is a recap on a tea article I had a while back)

The very sweet Gillian @Battle of the Bites is starting a #FitJune. I’m all over that!!! Anyone else wanna join?

Conscious Divas’ Kate has a wonderful video about breaking bad habits. How do you do that? They also have one that talks about how women (& some men) have a hard time enjoying life when things have been left unfinished or undone. I will admit that I do NOT have that issue. I would much rather drop a project & have fun, but I do know many people who have trouble doing this (I see you seeing me see you Chris!)

Vienda Maria is showing us how to choose Happiness. It’s so important you know! (you know), & on that note, why not go back to Kris Carr & read about how filling yourself up from the inside is a must do!

Jess @Wellness Warriors is talking about self care too. Do you see a pattern? Get to it!!! :)

Danielle LaPorte has a breakdown of how May went down. If you missed something or just wanna check it out again, here you go!

Kids. Many of us have some, & we love them to the moon! We want to take the very best care of them. Probiotics are a great start! (I’ve said it before & I’ll say it again, Yogurt & yogurt drinks are NOT enough, in fact, they are BAD!)

GreenMedInfo has a great site on the benefits of Omega~3′s. Although I agree with all the benefits, I think you need to be cautious with FISH. Many if not all fish supplements are already rancid before you even open the bottle, & too many fish are being poisoned with Mercury or other nasty things. Look for Vegetarian Friendly Omega’s!

Monday’s Fitness post has some amazing videos on proper running form. This site also has some great running info. If you fancy yourself a runner~ read them both!

I love WakeUpWorld, they have such great articles… this one about Liver Cleaners, & this one about the Great things Coconut Water can do for you!

So, I think this is enough for now. Do you still have some tea left in your mug? Check some of my older posts! There is a lot of info about Stress, Vitamins & More! :)

What were your favorite posts of the day? What are your plans for the weekend? (We are heading off Island to watch my 7 year old in his first ever Swim Meet~ Can’t wait!!!!) Have a great weekend!

I have been feeling a little stretched in ways that I didn’t want to be pulled. I am re~evaluating what I am here for. I want to be your go~to girl for Nutrition, Whole Vegan/Vegetarian Healthy Eating & Living Tips, Tricks, Supplement questions, Natural Detoxing Quests, Detoxing aids, & Natural Stress Management planning. I feel as though I’m not going into my bag of tricks as often as I’d like. I love to be of help. But I have to find my space, the place that is open & waiting for me.

In the meantime, I have added another interesting & informative section on this page for you. It’s my Top Ten!!! For now I only have a few, but I am eagerly awaiting your suggestions for more pages…
