Lovely Links with @heathersdish

SCHOOL’S OUT FOR THE SUMMER! I promise y’all don’t want me singing that song, but it’s been playing in my head for the entire week. My boys are officially done with school and mother’s day out programs, and I’m honestly so excited to spend some one on one time with them. I’m not under any illusion that it will be perfect all day every day, but I’m seeing more and more just how precious this time is and I plan to make the most of it.

 

There are a couple of things that will be going down in our house over the coming months, and while I will certainly try to talk about them here (I love using my blog for long-form content like that), you’ll see more of the day-to-day over on my Instagram stories. Please feel free to head over there and follow along for all of the fun that comes with purging a full house of stuff, changing kids’ diets to have more lean protein and veggies (less chicken nuggets, cheese, and sugar), and how to have a work-at-home job with kiddos around for the summer. Should be fun times!

 

I hope you guys have an amazing weekend, filled with the ones you love, and I hope you take time to sit back and give thanks for the sacrifice of our military, past and present. And enjoy these lovely links while you’re at it!

 

  1. A 30-day plank challenge that’s 6 minutes a day. I think I could handle that for a flatter and stronger midsection!
  2. I don’t subscribe to a lot of newsletters, but one that I don’t ever miss is Maria Shriver’s Sunday Paper. Make sure you don’t miss this one!
  3. Another toddler reported with chemical burns from a conventional aerosol sunscreen. Here’s a safer (on all fronts) sunscreen to use instead!
  4. I parented like a French dad and my kids started listening to me. Who’s up for trying this?
  5. Money secrets from 1,000 women. Super interesting to see how much money effects us!
  6. SO. MUCH. STATUS. I am the one woman who has it all!
  7. Dishwasher hacks! #1 is my favorite!
  8. The Mother of Dragons is getting a dragon tattoo. I think I would too!
  9. GIMME GIMME GIMME this amazing salad!
  10. I’d be remiss if I didn’t share a great deal from Beautycounter. Our promotions are few and far between, so this weekend’s deal is BIG! Spend $125+ and get a free travel Cleansing Balm or a free full size Body Butter! Need recommendations? That’s what I’m here for…drop me a comment!

Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! Just two gals who crushed a 50 minute run today! 

As we move into goal setting for the new year, may I suggest starting with your physical health? Not to fit the bikini body mold that society normalizes, but to actually BE as healthy as possible. When everything hit the fan for me this year I dug into two things that have been integral to creating positive growth and a healthier mindset: 

1️⃣ my relationship with God
2️⃣ my physical health

What that’s looked like for me on the health front: holding fast to my commitment to whole food nutrition, grace for the days when I choose otherwise, pushing myself to lift heavier in workouts, and taking up running again. 

What’s happened as a result? When I push myself physically, when I choose to practice discipline to do what I know is best for my body, it makes it infinitely easier to choose that same healthy discipline in every other area of life. You want to dominate your goals? Start with your health!
Remember when I blogged about food? 😂 Gosh the Remember when I blogged about  food? 😂 Gosh the past few months have been nuts. I’m still over here figuring out how to eat well without sacrificing my life in the kitchen, and this is a bowl I couldn’t NOT share with y’all. The best thing is that everything is almost always on hand in my fridge, it’s packed with nutrition, and tastes AMAZING!

In the bowl:
-rice mixed with Trader Joe’s Zhoug sauce
-broiled shredded Brussels sprouts
-chickpeas
-baby  arugula
-grilled chicken breast
-Romesco sauce (from Trader  Joe’s but I usually make my own)
-a little  tzaziki sauce

This meal has been on repeat all week, only changing the rice for riced cauliflower and omitting the chickpeas on low carb days. YUM! I find that if I have a variety of roasted veggies, grilled chicken, and a few different sauces on hand I can almost always come up with a great bowl for almost any meal!
It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday It’s a beautiful day for Small Business Saturday y’all! Almost 4 years ago I took a leap of faith and said yes to this job in an effort to create another stream of revenue. I had NO CLUE that it would change my life for the better in almost every way, that it would reignite my passion for health and community, that it would provide in so many beautiful ways. But it has, and I am so thankful to all of you who have trusted me and supported me along the way. 

When you shop with a small business you are literally a hero in their eyes, validating and supporting and protecting them. You guys are my heroes, and I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

Affirmations for YOU today. Even when you don’t Affirmations for YOU today. Even when you don’t feel it, these are truths that I’m holding for you. ❤️
3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day: 3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to improve your day:

1️⃣ SMILE! Even if you don’t feel like it, smiling (even forcing it to the point of feeling weird) has actually been scientifically proven to improve mood, lower stress, and boost your immune system. I actually recommend doing it awkwardly around other people because it’ll make them smile too 😉

2️⃣ GRATITUDE! Right now, before you talk yourself out of it, say or write 3 things you’re thankful for. Big, small, or in between. In this moment I’m going to say sticky notes, my Le Creuset Dutch Oven, and the Hamilton soundtrack. BOOM!

3️⃣MOVE! Get up off your tush, right now, and move your body. Walk around your house, do some jumping jacks, lock yourself in the bathroom and do a little dance, whatever. This isn’t about looking cool, it’s about giving yourself a better day. 

Things are hard, ambiguity and uncertainty isn’t fun, but we can control ONE THING: ourselves. Praying that you choose to gift yourself a little bit of happiness today! 

Now, tell me below, what’s one thing you’re thankful for RIGHT NOW?
