I’ve been thinking about the old habits I want to break and the new ones I want to start. In wake of the election I’ve also been thinking about the how I can be a better role model for my daughter and the next generation to ensure that they have a future. For me this has meant reflecting on my behaviors at home, socially and politically. Its easy to slip back into old habits when I feel tired or stressed so creating systems to help me stay accountable has been key.

Cheese sticks are a weakness of mine that I really want to break out of. My daughter loves them and they are an easy grab and go high protein, mess free snack. When we go to the beach I collect the small plastic pieces that have been left behind, a significant portion of the trash is cheese stick wrappers.

Cheese sticks represent my lack of planning and preparations. This year I would like to add more structure to my life so that I can reduce the amount of plastic in my life that comes in the form of single servings and actively work to ensure that the next generation has a thriving planet to live on.

Its always a good time to start breaking old habitats and starting new ones. Has “getting in shape” been on your new years resolution before? Working out can feel like a chore, I know it does for me. I was searching around for a workout that made me feel great. It took me 2 years after giving birth for me to feel motivated to get moving again.  I joined a gym and started taking group classes which was fun but after a few weeks I felt like I needed something more. I met with a personal trainer to help me design some routines to strengthen my core and straighten out my posture.

I tried the routine once and I knew that I wasn’t going to be able to keep up with it. It wasn’t fun, I wasn’t inspired to push myself and I felt tired after.

My best friend suggested I try a Buti Yoga and I immediately felt like my search was over. Buti has everything for me.

Come see if Buti Yoga is the workout for you, your first class is free and during December  you can buy 5 classes for $60.

I will be demoing a Buti Yoga class at Alameda Beach Body on Sunday December 11 at 10am. More evening and weekend classes will be scheduled starting in January 2017.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day but that doesn’t always mean I’m ready to eat something when I first wake up. On days when food isn’t appealing in the mornings I will sip on chicken broth with fresh grated ginger and a twist of lemon. It’s enough to settle my stomach until I’m mentally prepared to eat actual food. Sipping broth is a great way to start the day because it is packed with minerals and anti-inflammatory properties that nourish your body inside and out.
