Hey guys, here is part 2 to the natural detox tips.. No extremes just a natural way...
6. Use the healing spices mentioned in this post in your cooking and smoothies to fight inflammation and more.
7. Tea ... There are so many great ones out there. I'll put a link to some good ones (I'll ones I've tried otherwise I wouldn't link it).. But they have tea for skin, stress, detox and more...
A GREAT Tip...is if you hate the taste of tea(Like me:) Then open tea bags and put them in your green smoothie in the morning or if you don't do green smoothies put them in your protein shake!
Here's a good skin tea.
A good detox tea.
A good to for an upset stomach.
A good tea for stress.
This one taste's amazing, but has no real benefits:)~:)
Here's one for chocolate lover's but again no benefits but chocolate!!!:)
8. Fiber. You have to get enough fiber in your diet. High fiber and volume foods like fruit, veggies, coconut flour, and whole grains.. and eating enough of them help you reach your fiber goal. You'll so much better. Some people need even more than 25 grams. Also, make sure you get soluble and insoluble.
9. Greens. If your body is an acidic state it will not detox. I've talked about it a lot on the blog. If you struggle with greens I'll do a post on how to get more greens tomorrow so stay toned.
10. Be regular. I talked about it a lot on the other detox post and in the fiber tip, but I just wanted to repeat it I'll give tips for this on Tuesday. I know your just dying to read that;)..
HAVE A GREAT DAY! I hope this helps!~

3 Yoga Tips And Tricks... For everyone who says they "can't" do Yoga:) #yogaeverydamnday
Hey guys, So everyday I someone tells me "I could never do yoga I'm not ____ enough." (Just fill in the blank...LOL!)
So I thought I'd give you some yoga tips and trips that help you get into cool postures.
1. Down Dog.. Your down dog should be far out enough where you can transition into plank without moving your feet back. Otherwise transitions are going to always feel really akward to you... Here is a good video on what I mean.
2. When doing poses where your flexibility is challenged. DON"T bounce. Go as far as you can hold for two long deep breaths, then inhale go a Tad further, TWO deep breaths, Repeat that one more time. Hold for a while. Yin Yoga is great for you and yes flexibility is super important. Here is a yin yoga routine(May seem hard and boring at first but you will grow to love it, promise!) and a stretch routine.
3. Are inversions your goal. Practice holding headstand or handstand for 1 min. every day (It's just 1 minute:). As you get better start to go a little further from the wall. Also work on plow and shoulder stands to. You'd be surprised on how much this helps! Attached is a pic of shoulder stands if you wanted to practice that too. Inversions, by the way, are great for detox, stress and have been linked extensively with longevity.. Heard of an inversion table.. Here is a free one:)
I hope these help! Let me know what you think and have a great day!

Cheesy Vegan Cinnamon Bean Dip. #strangebutreallygood
Here is an awesome recipe. Great post workout. High protein: Feed muscles. Filling: So you don't binge cuz your starving after leg day. Love this so much.
Cheesy Cinnamon Bean Dip:
-1c Beans. (Fiber, Resistant Starch, Protein)
-1/4-1/2c Nutritional Yeast (B12, Protein)
-Cinnamon (just a dash or it will be weird tasting) (Blood Sugar Balance)
-Flax Seeds (Digestion, Omega 3's) (If you are using this recipe after lifting just use a little flax cuz you don't want to much fat in your post workout meal so that can be changed:) ~Also I linked it to sprouted flax cuz that's easier to digest but you can use regular~
-Opts: Stevia or Almond Milk.
Mash all together. If you like it sweeter add the stevia and almond milk. If you want it cheesier add nutritional yeast.
It's so good. I served mine with romaine hearts and rolled them up like tacos, but if you want something even more filling can serve with ezekial bread, pita, corn tortilla chips, etc. :)
If you need the ingredients Pure Forumals has them... I just really like this site as you can see lol!:) So cheap! I linked it to the site you can use my cupon code if you want to! Code: RQANXY ($5 off, free shipping on every order no matter price, samples)
Let me know what you think! Have a great afternoon:)

Three Tips to Improve Body Image..
Hey guys, today I bring you a post that is SO close to my heart. So many people suffer with eating disorders, bad body image, etc.....It SO sad and its my mission to help make a difference in that. Its so sad how many people hate themselves. Its also sad and frustrating the pressure put out there by society to be "strong", "skinny", "fit"...Etc. Just be you, be healthy, that's perfect and if you're not where you want to be realize your on a JOURNEY. Accept yourself now otherwise you never will be able to see it..
Here's my top ten tips plus some resources:::
Top Three Tips:
1. Faith... The fact that God created you perfectly in his image remember this God DOES NOT make mistakes he made you and he loves you SO much. So much his son died for you so who cares what society thinks of your physical body when the creator of the universe thinks your perfect... Resources:
-The Bible on Body Image
-"More Beautiful You" by Johnny Diaz
-"The Real Me" By Natalie Grant
2. Strength Training and Yoga.... Start focusing on what your body can do verses what you look like. When you start seeing how strong your body and what an Amazing machine it is you can start to love it more.
-Yoga and Self-Acceptance
-Strength Training and Depression
3. Set a Goal... The power of goal setting is incredible and set a goal you want.. Ex. If your trying to recover but you don't want to recover don't make recovery a goal set a goal you want and make recovery the byproduct.
