💥SPECIAL OFFER FOR YOU💥
⁣
I don’t know about you, but I am ready to get back to my default way of eating.
⁣
I don’t restrict anything during the holidays and don’t feel guilt (although I do try to find the best quality of the foods I am enjoying).
⁣
With that said I have had more “fun foods” the last few weeks.
⁣
I find myself snacking more, craving sweets and not making the best choices.
⁣
I am grateful to have learned to listen to my body. I know when it is too much. I know when I need to refocus.
⁣
So what does that look like for me?
⁣
I fall back to my foundation for a perfect plate of food.
⁣
✔️Tons and tons of fiber rich veggies
✔️Quality fat
✔️Quality protein
✔️Lots of ferments
⁣
Eating this way makes me feel my best!
⁣
This month, I am offering a 15% special on my Well Belly Nourishment course where I teach you all about how to replicate my belly bowls anywhere you are (+ why it’s so important to eat this way)!

Kids snacks on the go!
⁣
Yes, fresh fruit is best, but sometimes it is fun to have packaged stuff, without comprising nutrition and health.
⁣
There are a lot of great upgraded options for dried fruit snacks, bars, strips / leathers and roll ups.
⁣
We have loved That’s It bars for a while and now they offer mini sizes and Santa brought all the boys Solely jerky this year.
⁣
Its crazy to me the amount of kids products that still contain artificial coloring, flavors, tons of added sugar and chemicals.
⁣
I wish you could just trust that products are okay, especially for our littles, but a goal I might encourage for you in the new year is start to familiarize yourself with the ingredients on packaged products.
⁣
Goal: opt for just one ingredient, the fruit. Organic is ideal, especially if on the Dirty Dozen list.
⁣
One note of caution, dried fruit is a rush of sugar, even if the ingredient is just the fruit and nothing else.
⁣
To help balance blood sugar and keep your kiddos full and feeling great, pair it with a good quality protein or fat. Two of our favorites are @paleovalley meat sticks or a handful of nuts.
⁣
Bonus - both of these options you can get at Costco!
⁣
**For those concerned about the use of non-organic apples in That’s It (apples are on the dirty dozen), this is what they had to say. “That’s it farms practice organic farming and 20% of our farms are still awaiting certification, which is a lengthy process. To avoid confusion for our consumers, we will add the organic certification on our packaging when all of our farms become 100% organic certified in the near future.”

Wishing you and your family an amazing holiday bre

Wishing you and your family an amazing holiday break.
⁣
As I do every year, I will be taking a break from social media.
⁣
I do this for a few reasons….
⁣
I want to focus on my family and sometimes I feel my phone wins.
⁣
I want to recharge and spend some time focusing on what I want to happen in 2021, both from a business and life perspective and sometimes my phone is a distraction.
⁣
I know my limits and sometimes I just need a break.
⁣
I hope you all have a great few weeks and I will see you again after the new year!
⁣
In the mean time, let me know if there are specific things you want to see from me in 2021. (Thanks to those of you that did my story polls. I got a ton of great feedback.)

Things look a little different this year, that is

Things look a little different this year, that is for sure.
⁣
But it doesn’t have to be all bad. I am hearing lots of creative ways people are making things different and it ends up being even better.
⁣
I want to hear about all your holiday traditions.
⁣
Drop in the comments your favorites + if you are still doing them or if things are changed up this year.
⁣
I’ll go first.
⁣
One of my favorite Christmas Day traditions is instead of doing a big meal, my family comes over and we just have a grazing appetizer type food set up all day. More time for playing and hanging out, instead of being stuck in the kitchen making a big meal.
⁣
I also love that our neighborhood does a sleigh ride around our hood to look at Christmas lights. Our neighborhood does a great job decorating and the kids (and us) think it is so fun to ride around and check it out, with what has now become friends.
⁣
This year, instead, we just all got into our matching Christmas jammies and drove around as a family of 5.
⁣
Bonus - it was warmer and we got to go up and down every street, instead of just a couple.
⁣
I think this holiday season I am going to focus on perspective!
⁣
Okay, your turn👇
