Did you know?

We often forget that water is such an important part of your day. Most people start off drinking a cup of coffee and forget to rehydrate with water first before consuming any other liquids.

As we sleep our bodies do a lot of work recovering from the day before. Our organs slow down and everything goes into a slight hibernation to rest and repair.

Once you wake up your bodies start to reactivate all these organs which now need hydration to get them operating optimally again. So first thing in the morning it is highly recommended to start off with at least 12-20 oz of water first before drinking anything other liquids. Especially coffee!

Coffee is a natural dehydrate. So if that is your first liquid for the day, you are now placing your body in a deficit for hydration and you will need more water later on to adjust for the lack of water in the morning. This leaves you more thirsty through out the day plus you may find yourself more tired and dragging to get through the remainder of the day. Needing more coffee to keep going.

Tomorrow try adjusting your routine and drinking some water first. I bet you feel better. Your skin wont feel as dry, and you will be less thirsty throughout your day. #water #hydrate #info #healthy #liquid

Guilt FREE Desert

Okay, so I'll admit that I have a bit of a sweet tooth. What I like about the 21 Day Fix program is that I can still live like a normal person and have a little desert with out having to stress. So the other night I came up with this yummy recipe: ~1-2 nectarines (depends on the size of the fruit and if your feeding family too) = 1 PURPLE container ~2-3 Shakes of Cinnamon ~Handful of almonds or pecans = 1 BLUE container ~1 YELLOW container full of Organic Oat and Honey Cereal (I actually didn't need to use the entire container) 1.Slice apricots and place on foil. 2. Sprinkle with Cinnamon and wrap up the foil gently. 3. Place in 350° oven for 15-20 min. 4. Roast nuts in a pan for a few min on low-med low heat. 5. Place baked apricots on a plate and top with a little cereal and nuts. You can drizzle a little juice let from the foil over the whole thing to kick up some sweetness, but it s not necessary.

Love this! It really is true. It's not always easy to shift our perspective when we're in the thick of it! Life can be HARD and it's easy to get caught up in fear, anger and staring at all the problems we face. But, by changing the way we think-- for the better  😄 ! It's worth the challenge we face in the process to make that shift happen. Prayer always helps and Jesus is always listening! Whether you think He is or not, I assure you He's listening and answers are coming.  ❤  "And this is the boldness that we have in Him, that if we ask whatever according to His desire, He hears us." 1 John 5:14 Listening to those who've been through a tough spot and come out the other side gives hope. Listening to audible or reading books on positive motivation is encouraging. Surrounding yourself with other encouraging, happy and excited people helps too! The main thing I'm learning from going through personal struggles is to keep pursuing having...
