In this blog post, let's explore simple ways to incorporate exercise into our busy schedules. Exercise doesn't have to feel overwhelming; we can seamlessly integrate it into our daily routines. One option is the Simply Fit Board, a fun and low-impact workout tool that we can use while watching TV or even during a Zoom call. Taking a 15-minute walk every day is another easy way to get moving and boost our mood. For those of us who work from home, incorporating office workouts using tools like stability balls or chair exercises can be a great way to stay active. Bodyweight exercises, such as squats and lunges, done in short increments, can also be effective. Even our regular housework can provide opportunities for a workout, and we can stay motivated and track our progress using reminders and fitness trackers. Ultimately, finding creative ways to multitask and enjoy movement can help us incorporate exercise into our daily routines more effortlessly.

I challenge the notion that women must abandon traditional roles to be strong and independent. Embracing our natural instincts and roles as women actually enhances our strength and overall well-being. Equality does not imply being identical to men. Women should celebrate their unique differences! While men may possess physical strength in certain areas, women possess remarkable abilities to nurture and develop deep connections. Valuing our families and creating a nurturing home is not wrong. It requires tremendous strength and resilience to make such a choice in a society that often prioritizes careers over family. Embracing our true selves and cherishing our traditional roles can lead to even greater strength, happiness, and fulfillment. Join me in celebrating the strength of women, both at home and in the world. #strengthofwomen #embracingtradition #equality

Wondering why walking in the woods during pregnancy is amazing? Here's why: 

Boosts your immune system, giving extra protection to you and your baby. Reduces stress and anxiety. Improves balance, posture, and flexibility. Provides vitamin D from sun exposure. Enhances connection to the world and brings grounding and peace. 

Ditch the treadmill, take a walk on a woodland path, and enjoy the benefits during pregnancy!

In this exciting blog post, we're going on a house adventure to tackle a commonly neglected area: the baseboards. By meticulously sweeping the floor first, we create a pristine canvas for our cleaning mission. Armed with an all-purpose cleaner and a soft cloth, we wage war against accumulated dust and dirt, leaving no crevice unexplored. As we move from room to room, we witness the magic of baseboard transformation, revealing their long-lost shine. And to add a final touch of elegance, we can use furniture polish for a jaw-dropping shine or Young Living lemon oil to infuse a burst of freshness and delightful aroma throughout every room. Join us on this exhilarating mission and conquer your baseboards until they glisten with perfection.

In my recent blog post, I discuss three things I am choosing to skip during my pregnancy and explain why these decisions are right for me. The first decision I have made is not finding out the gender of my baby, as I believe the focus should be on raising a child with kindness and resilience, rather than gender expectations. I have also opted to use cloth diapers instead of disposable ones due to environmental concerns and long-term cost savings. Lastly, I have chosen not to take traditional prenatal vitamins and instead focus on a nutrient-dense diet and targeted supplementation based on personalized blood work results. I want to remind my readers that every family is different and encourage embracing unique approaches to pregnancy and parenthood.
