A New Approach To Food – Healthy Eating As A Family
Finding the right diet and way of eating is hard. I am trying out a new approach to food – an easy way to establish a healthy eating lifestyle. I have tried so many approaches to food. In my teenage years, when I thought I was fat, I tried every diet I heard of. I would lose a few pounds and then gain a few more back. I continued this yo-yo diet for more years than I care to admit. My struggle with food has continued into my adult years. Sound familiar? But when I became a mom, everything changed. Not only did I have my own health to worry about,…

Affirmations for Health
When we take the time to say affirmations for health, it is amazing how we can shift our mindset towards positive living and reach our goals. Every morning, while I am still laying in bed, I say my morning affirmations. I love to start my day in a positive way. By taking the time to say “I am” affirmations or reflect on what I am grateful for, I find myself beginning the day with a positive mindset. The way we view the world is subjective and if we want to have a positive experience, we need to focus on the positive and things that bring us joy. Many of us…

Setting Up My 2019 Bullet Journal To Reach Goals and Create Habits
I will be tracking habits and goals in 2019 using my BULLET JOURNAL. Plan with me as I set up my monthly spreads and trackers. 2019 is going to be a big year. I have lots of goals that I want to reach and habits that I want to establish. 2018 was a wonderful year. It may have not been as productive as I would have liked but, as a result, I ended up doing a lot of meditation and self-reflection. I have ended 2018 with a better idea of who I am as a woman, a wife, a mother, an entrepreneur… As we move forward into a new year,…

Night Time Cleaning Routine
Do you have a night time cleaning routine that helps you get stuff done? I don’t – but I am trying! Come get your own free printable to help get organized! Like most people, I have the best intentions of getting all sorts of things done each and every day. But by dinner time, I am losing steam to get everything done that I had planned on doing. If I do not write down a to-do list for the evening, then nothing gets done. Instead of getting my cleaning done, I tend to lounge around on the couch and watch Netflix or get distracted by Facebook. These things have a…

Have A GYST Day
Having a bad day or off week? Have a GYST day! GYST stands for Get Your Shit Together and taking a day to get back on track really helps me press forward. Do you ever feel like you need a vacation after returning home from vacation? That is me right now. I went away for 3 weeks. It was a long and tiring three weeks but also an amazing and relaxing three weeks. We visited family, tried to stay warm and dry in an off-grid cabin in the woods, witnessed a beautiful wedding, and just kept ourselves busy with all sorts of amazing activities. I have been home for a few…

Habit Stacking – A Book Review
Do you ever feel like you could use your time in a more productive manner? That’s me. When Habit Stacking was recommended to me I immediately bought it. One of my goals for 2018 is to read more. I originally aimed high and said I was going to read 52 books this year but as a busy mom, I have decided that quality is better than quantity. Quality is exactly what I found in the latest book I read. Habit Stacking by S.J. Scott is a great book about developing habits which will help you change your life and reach your goals. Habit Stacking by S.J. Scott came up as a…

Life is always changing. Your life ebbs and flows through different periods as your interest and desires change. It is the season of change. What Are Seasons? -a period of the year characterized by particular conditions or activities-any definite or indefinite period Collins Dictionary We use the word seasons to separate times in our lives. A lot of the time, we think of seasons in broader and generic terms.  Terms that are reflective of a society or groups of people as a whole.
