PEACE OUT | WELLNESS & WORKOUT TIPS + MY WORD OF THE YEAR…EQUANIMITY

Posted on January 30, 2022

PEACE OUT ’21 BECAUSE I’M FEELIN ’22 | WELLNESS, WORKOUT & BEAUTY TIPS + MY WORD OF THE YEAR…EQUANIMITY

I don’t know about you, but I’m feelin’ 22! As most of you already know, I don’t care much for resolutions. For me personally, New Year’s resolutions just don’t work for me, and I end up breaking them a couple of weeks into the new year. Thus, this year I have chosen to refocus myself in alignment with the word “equanimity,” rather than setting specific resolutions. Equanimity is the skill and practice of not giving your power away. I’m excited to adopt this mentality – a state of composure, inner peace, self-control, and confidence. Along with this behavior, I’m also excited for a daily dose of detox, healthy eating, daily movement, sunlight and an overall active yet fun lifestyle! After many years of learning what works best for me, I want to share these in hopes of motivating and pushing you to reach your own goals. Plus, share a few of my favorite wellness tips along the way, in hopes that each of us may reach a state of equanimity all year long!

Please keep scrolling for ways to stay focused on healthier lifestyle choices vs just only focusing on weight loss…..

Posted on August 31, 2021

INTRODUCING BUBBLE BEAUTY | FINALLY AFFORDABLE SKINCARE

THAT’S EFFECTIVE, VEGAN & CRUELTY FREE

I am going to let you guys on a little secret, a skincare brand where every product is less than $20. If you are interested in effective, vegan, and cruelty-free skincare that’s affordable, this skincare brand is the right one for you. Introducing my new go to brand – Bubble. It’s one that has changed the skincare industry for good and a brand I’ve been truly loving lately! Launched just over a month ago in Walmart stores near you, Bubble makes their skincare with non-toxic, fragrance-free ingredients that have been dermatologist tested.

Their products are advanced (plant-based, science-backed, research-driven, and actually effective), safe (no harsh chemicals, additives, or fillers, vegan, and formulated for all ages), and inclusive (affordable, made for everyone, and reliable). Life is complicated enough, but our skincare routine shouldn’t be! I ordered a few of their products to try for myself and wanted to share the details below. I’ve started incorporating these into my daily skincare routine recently, and I have already been able to tell a difference! Keep scrolling to read about my favorite Bubble skincare products from Walmart, so we can all do skincare the Bubble way.

HINDSIGHT’S 2020 | WELLNESS, WORKOUT & BEAUTY TIPS FOR A BETTER YOU IN 2K21

INSPIRATION ON HOW TO TAKE ACTION THIS BLUE MONDAY 

Has this Blue Monday found you dismayed with maintaining a wellness routine in 2k21 already? Each year many people find themselves saying the words, “New year, new me”! I don’t care much for that saying. As much as we dream of being better versions of ourselves, life gets busy or hard and it can be tough to stick with any new routine. However this year, more than any other before, you must give yourself even more grace. Additionally. always remember it’s never too late to follow through with improving your wellness, physical activity, and other manifestations.

Cliff Arnall first published about Blue Monday back in 2005. But he recently said that it was “never his intention to make the day sound negative”, but rather “to inspire people to take action and make bold life decisions”.

Maintaining a wellness routine is truly important in order to sustain a positive emotional, physical, and mental state of mind. Just remember “Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life. Tip Toe if you must, but take a step.” – Naeem Callaway.

TONED, TIGHTER SKIN WITHOUT GOING UNDER THE KNIFE | ULTHERAPY AT ENLIGHTEN MD

Posted on October 16, 2020

TONED, TIGHTER SKIN WITHOUT GOING UNDER THE KNIFE | ULTHERAPY AT ENLIGHTEN MD + 15% OFF ANY SERVICE

Are you interested in smoothing, lifting, tightening & toning the skin on your face, neck, and/or chest? But want to avoid any kind of surgery. If I told you there’s a new way to achieve this without going under the knife, would you believe me? Ultherapy at Enlighten MD is an amazing choice if you want to avoid surgery or maintain the effects of cosmetic surgery! Plus it’s the only ultrasound treatment approved by the FDA to tighten skin without surgery.

Collagen is a very important component of the skin. As we age and our skin matures, collagen fibers that provide internal support become worn. Ultherapy stimulates collagen production, which in turn, provides firmness and suppleness to the skin which we associate with a youthful appearance.

I mean…Christy Brinkley is their spokesperson and who doesn’t want to try everything she’s doing at least once, right?! Ultherapy is basically a facelift without the surgery part involved. Sounds too good to be true, right? It’s the only non-surgical ultrasound treatment for skin lifting on the brow, neck, and chin. If you are between the ages of 40 and 60 years old with early signs of laxity, you’re the perfect candidate! (But side note Christy is 66 and she is still doing it!)

Plus if you mention my name or name of my blog, you will receive 15% off any procedure at EnlightenMD.

12 WAYS TO COMBAT CORONAVIRUS + SUPPLEMENTS, FOODS, CHARITIES TO SUPPORT & MUCH MORE 

Posted on April 8, 2020

12 WAYS TO COMBAT CORONAVIRUS + SUPPLEMENTS, FOODS, CHARITIES TO SUPPORT & MUCH MORE

Today I’m sharing 12 Ways To Combat Coronavirus + Supplements, Foods, Charities To Support & Much More. The best time to build up your immune system is way before you actually need it. And with over 70% of your immune system living in your gut, whether you want to believe it or not every meal plays a vital role in keeping you healthy or not.

I for one know I do not eat near enough nutrients, fruits and vegetables in my diet as I should. Yes I still drink my mBreakfast Shake every morning but that’s just not enough. You are supposed to have 5 to 9 servings of fruits and veggies a day. So I have to supplement for many of the things that I am lacking.

But I have been trying my best to incorporate more plant-based foods in my diet and less meat. They are rich in antioxidants and fiber plus work to keep your immune system strong. One way I’ve been doing this is by adding the Sakara At Home Plant-Rich Ready-To-Eat Meals to my Diet. And use My Personal Discount CODE: ‘XOSSS’ – to receive 20% off the SAKARA SITE! 

They deliver nationwide and this is my fourth week eating them and I just love them! And my daughters and husband do as well. Head to the bottom of this post for a special collaboration offer between Sakara & my favorite beauty expert Dr. Barbara Sturm (you will receive $250 worth of 4 of her top products if you participate)!

2019 NEW YEAR’S INTENTIONS & WELLNESS TIPS FOR A BETTER YOU

Posted on January 3, 2019

2019 NEW YEAR’S INTENTIONS & WELLNESS TIPS FOR A BETTER YOU + THE $500 TARGET GIVEAWAY BEGINS

Once again this year I’ve decided to not share any resolutions and instead set some new intentions and some wellness tips. We all must do what works for us and for me I just end up breaking those a few days or weeks in. So today I share my 2019 New Year’s Intentions & Wellness Tips For A Better You. Not sure about each of you but I am definitely in need of a little detox from my recent trip to the beach. I enjoyed myself but I did fall off the wagon just a bit as far as my healthy eating and drinking goes. I do believe in moderation and I did still workout while on vacation (just obviously not as often as I do when I’m home) but I am ready to get back on my normal healthy track.

You might also remember some of my previous wellness posts that I have done: NEW YEAR, NEW YOU: INTENTIONS & WELLNESS TIPS | PLUS A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS 2018, STAYING HEALTHY DURING THESE WINTER MONTHS, WORKOUT WEAR/ATHLEISURE + WELLNESS TIPS, & HYDRATION: WHAT WATER IS BEST & ARE YOU DRINKING ENOUGH? for more information on what I do and believe in. Plus don’t forget to scroll all the way down the post because The $500 Target Giveaway Begins…

NEW YEAR, NEW YOU: INTENTIONS & WELLNESS TIPS | PLUS A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS
+ WIN A $750 GIFT CARD TO AMAZON

I had a wonderful start to 2018 celebrating with family and dear friends by a bonfire on the beach with way too many fireworks (two extra-large boxes from Costco to be exact, we never thought it would end) and lots of food and drink for all! With all the fun and excitement of the New Year we must also remember that this is a time of reflection on our previous year. What can we work on going forward? What should we try to do more of or less of in 2018? What are some positive ways that we can not only do better for ourselves but for others as well? I’ve decided that this year I am done with resolutions! No more for me. We all must do what works for us and for me I just end up breaking those a few days or weeks in and then I’m done. So this year I have decided to set some intentions instead. I’m thrilled to share today my Intentions, Wellness Tips, and a Few Favorite Things for 2018. Not sure about each of you but I am definitely in need of a little detox from my trip. I enjoyed myself but I did fall off the wagon just a bit as far as my healthy eating and drinking goes.

Smile Brilliant~How To Make A Lasting Impression

Posted on January 17, 2017

Smile Brilliant~How To Make A Lasting Impression

Smile Brilliant is an at home teeth whitening customized kit that will not only save you time but money as well. We all know that I can’t live without my cup of coffee each morning (I’d never make it through the day without it, along with my Crucial Four Shake), green tea every afternoon, and finally some red wine as well a couple of nights throughout the week. Yes, I do still drink my 75-100 ounces of water each day. However any combination of coffee, tea and red wine can and will wreak havoc on the color of your teeth. I used to think that my teeth were pretty white but then I started noticing some of my friends teeth and I soon realized that they in fact were no longer what I considered “white” to be. Being a fashion/lifestyle blogger and having to constantly take pictures all the time, it obviously is very important to me to have nice, pretty, white teeth. I’d like to take this time to tell you a little about Smile Brilliant~How To Make A Lasting Impression.
