Nutty about Snack Time: The Benefits of Nuts

I'm getting better and better about making healthy choices throughout the day when it comes to what I put into my body. It's not just about a balanced meal, its also making better snack choices and drinking water. The old me has a stash of Pringles and leftover halloween candy safe for rummaging when my restless tastes buds get to watering. Now I'm opting for better choices like Pistachios! They are so yummy and high in monounsaturated fats (good fat). I recommend keeping a pack in your purse instead of gum or candy. It's more fulfilling and for sure healthier.

Berry, Berry, GOOD: The Benefits Of Berries

Getting into my mid twenties, I notice the changes that people warn you about in your teens when you're stuffing honey buns and gummy worms down your throat. "Enjoy your metabolism while it lasts", older people would warn as I'd be dragging a book bag full of hostess snacks.

Even as I appear to be even thinner than my high school weight, my immune system isn't as prevailing when ingesting processed and sugary snacks. Veering away from the cookie and cake aisle at the grocery store, I've found healthy replacements in the fruit and vegetable section.

Smart Mom Healthy Woman: Squat Variations

It's November, I can't believe how the year is flying by. I  woke up today feeling like it was a good day to challenge myself. Especially with the holidays approaching, it would be smart to get my mind and body right before indulging in decadent foods and opinionated family members. I'm starting a campaign for myself today called "Smart Mom, Healthy Woman". I'll be tracking the progress here and on my Instagram account. Get ready for a few work out videos and some healthy snack suggestions and whatever else my mind brings to this experience.

Here I put together a video for a few squat variations I practice when I work out. This isn't about strenuous exercising for me as much as it is about breathing and practicing health. These should be good for any body type if you want to follow along.
