Day 4!

Spectacular Day!

Jumped out of bed early this morning with tons of energy! Where did that come from?! Class at 8am! Alert and excited for my day! I stepped outside and knew that it would be a good day. It was already warm and the sun was shining. I decided that today I would take yoga! Such an amazing relaxing and yet energizing class. Took a walk in the sunshine! I practically skipped down the street fueled by the light and energy of the sun! Went home to make a juice and worked on some hw and then took a weekly pottery class with my mom! My work was a disasterpiece! It was my first time on the pottery wheel and let me tell you it's not as fun and romantic and EASY as it seems in the movie Ghost!

LOL...anyway I have a big day ahead of me tomorrow so I should go get some shut eye...I will sleep well tonight!

Juice Day 2...Again?

Hello Y'all,
Juice Fast number 2...and it's day 2. Forgot how amazing I feel on Juice...so much energy!! It is 9pm and I just broke out into a spontaneous dance party and advanced yoga posture series in my living room!! So much fun! My mind is very clear and my eyes are already sparkling! My mom joined my juice fasting party today so today is day 1 for her. One of my friends is joining me on Tuesday! But the point that I want to make with the juice is that you are not thinking about food or juice while you are juicing...it's like you have to say...hey "I think I should make a juice, my energy levels are dropping". You will have the energy to wash your car, clean your house, go to school, do hw, go to work, do yoga or sports on juice!
I will keep you posted on my progress. My goal is 30+ days on juice this time! Pictures to follow...are you anxious?

Spring is coming...it was 55 degrees today (haha it felt like a heat wave)...my outdoor pool will be opening before I know it and I'm anxious to slip into that bikini and get a much needed tan!!!!

Also I will provide juice and raw food recipes as requested! Soon to come are....spiralized zucchini noodles with alfredo sauce that even a hungry MAN will enjoy and be satisfied with. I personally love this recipe!
Plus I have some tips to come for eating raw food or juicing on the road or when you take a vacation!
Stay tuned!

Just Do IT!

Wow,
I have so many things to do this week! Are there enough moments, seconds, minutes, hours to get it all done? Tomorrow I have an action packed day. First I'm taking a meditation class at the crack of dawn at 6:00am. I need it!! Then exam on campus. Then yoga around 9am. Class 11am till 6:30 pm. I really don't like sitting in class all day! But I'm going to take a long walk during my lunch break!!! The weather is getting warmer and I can use all the Vit D I can get!!!

I'm studying and reading for class right now but I thought I'd give you an update on my past weekend adventures!

Thursday was a crazy rain storm!! I had class alllll Day like I do tomorrow! The streets were flooded and I came home soaking wet! The rain and wind were so strong that it sounded like a hurricane; I thought the roof to my apartment was going to blow off. I lit some candles as the lights started to flicker and sure enough. Bye Bye Power! Two cold nights in an apartment with no electricity and running water=seek refuge. That's what my family did. We packed up a car with fruit, veggies, kale chips and trail mix and took our 2 dogs and family 6 hours towards my Aunt's house in NY. Thank goodness for hot showers and warm beds!!!

Now...I'm back to my apartment now that power has been restored. Now it's time to get my butt into gear. Just 2 weeks till Spring Break which is Amazing. 2 more weeks of school work and I will have a week of freedom!

What are you doing for Spring Break?!
