My Sweet Sunrise Smoothie is so good! Loaded with natural energy to power me through a busy morning and so easy to make (less than 5 minutes!)- it’s one of my go-to breakfast choices during the week. 1 ripe banana (lots of spots on the peel) 1-2 small clementines 3-4 Baby carrots (I’m obsessed with the tri-colored, but use what you have) 1 oz cold coconut water Blend until smooth-ish and enjoy!

This almost tastes like dessert for breakfast! Bursting with fresh fruit and using a probiotic juice blend as the base, my tastebuds are happy and the flora in my gut get a healthy high-five too. 1 ripe banana, peeled 1 ripe kiwi, scooped 1 cup probiotic juice blend, such as Suja Organic Essentials Probiotic Fruit Juice Blend and enjoy! Approximately 275 calories

After back-to-back weekends of seemingly nonstop partying with friends & family, my body has had just about enough with the heavy foods, desserts, and more than a few adult beverages. I just felt kinda bleh and gross and dull. Can I get an AMEN? I don’t love the idea of a “cleanse” but I do LOVE to have a hard reset to put my system back on a course that makes me feel good and happy and whole. I created a neat little smoothie that’s green and sweet and wonderful that does just that! Here’s my recipe: 1/2 ripe banana…

Sometimes living life in a bigger body has it’s challenges! Too often we are made to feel as though enjoying good health, practicing self-care, and a modeling a lifestyle of wellness is only for the thin, the athletic, and the fit-and-trim… but I want to let you in on a (big) little secret: It’s just not true.

Confession: At one point in my life, I was drinking quite a lot of coffee every day. Like, A LOT. We’re talking all day long, so maybe 8 cups… or more! What’s worse is that I wasn’t even enjoying it (except for the first cup); no, I NEEDED it. Coffee had become my drug of choice. It didn’t even have to be good coffee, hell, I would reheat a half-finished cup of crappy gas station super sweetened garbage coffee in the microwave and clutch it in my trembling hands like it was The One Ring… my preeeeciousssssssssssss! That, my friends,…

It’s no big secret that the foods we consume regularly will have an effect on our overall health. And while it’s true that some foods are obviously not helpful in supporting our bodies, there is just a LOT of information out there on the interwebs, bookshelves, and tv talk show circuit that is conflicting and confusing. Vegan. Paleo. Zone. Gluten-Free. Anti-Inflammatory. Mediterranean. Juicing. The Latest Magical Cleanse… Cue my emotional response: *$@#! It’s overwhelming, just give me a blanket and a damn cookie! So what if I just want to make some healthier food choices, and I’m not in a…
