    • What’s Really In That “Nutritious” Smoothie

    What’s Really In That “Nutritious” Smoothie

    Hellooo everyone, There is a lot of misinformation circulating regarding what constitutes a “healthy” smoothie.  I feel like everyday I see at least a few instagram posts of bloggers or social media celebrities promoting some weight-loss smoothie or protein powder.  Beyond social media, nearly all of the “Smoothie King”-type smoothie stands around offer drinks that they market as nutritious and healthy alternatives.  In reality, these drinks are often filled with sugars, artificial flavors and sweeteners, dairy, and loads of dairy-based protein.…

    Bright, Bold Lips For Spring!

    Hey everyone! I haven’t done a beauty post in a bit, and I’m getting into spring mode- despite the little snowstorms that we’ve had here in Massachusetts in the first couple days of April!! But I’m gonna make spring happen regardless, with my makeup, nail polish and clothes (as much as I can without freezing to death on my walk to work) and the easiest way to shift into spring mode is by popping on a bright, bold lipstick.

    Hey everyone, I’ll preface this post by reiterating that I don’t believe in or practice any diet or techniques that claim to instantly make you lose weight.  There is no healthy way to do this, and I would never promote or practice something that compromises health for weight loss.  However, I do practice a little trick with peppermint essential oil that works fast to debloat and aid digestion.  As we know, a better functioning digestive system=weight loss among countless other beauty…

    Connecting With (and loving!) Your Body

    Connecting With (and loving!) Your Body

    Hello hello, I’ve been doing a lot of reading and thinking about this topic in the last year or so and I think it’s such valuable information to be made aware of.  Sometimes we forget to pay attention to our bodies and forget to consider, appreciate, and be grateful toward them for all the hard work they do for us day in and day out.  Then when the body presents problems, we mask the problems through medications rather than thinking about…
