Smoothies Give Me Life!

-
On any given day you can have one of life's most refreshing drinks.. Smoothies🏖🤗They are so delicious and packed with so many nutrients that your body will love. My smoothies are exactly what your body craves😀

Most crave sugar and when you think about it hard and long enough a smoothie is a natural way to satisfy those addictive sugar cravings. I was at the mall the other day and I went to this smoothie stand and ask for a Kale 🥬 Strawberry 🍓 Banana 🍌 smoothie, boy o boy was I disappointed 😔 

Let’s start with what they didn’t have. No Kale 🥬 which is one of the best superfoods on the market. It’s natural healing mechanism is everything and let’s not forget the iron, the vitamins especially for brain development and the protein, 3 grams of protein!! 

The lady at the smoothie stand pulled out this bottle with liquid syrup that said strawberry and one said banana and proceeded to ask me if I wanted to add whip cream! Stop ✋ I politely declined the smoothie altogether which made me think 🤔 even more about how many people actually drink those sugary, syrupy drinks and have no idea what they are truly putting their bodies. There were no fruits to be found at her stand nor veggies. 

The reality is the more sugar you put in your body the more harm your body entails. 

My smoothies give me life. They add so much spark and energy to my everyday living. Let’s talk about my simple ingredients for my Strawberries 🍓 Banana 🍌 Kale 🥬 Smoothie 

First I start with the base, Almond Milk 🥛 1Cup 

Second I add a small Banana 🍌 

Third a cup of Frozen Strawberries 🍓 

Fourth 1 Cup of Kale which packs 34 calories 2.2 grams of protein 0.5 grams of fat and 1.3 grams of fiber., WINNING 🎉❤️

1cup of Greek Yogurt plain 

1 Tablespoon of Chia Seeds which packs in fiber, protein, iron and calcium and let me not forget to mention omega 3 fatty acids!! 

The goal is to feed my body all the nutrients it can get that will help it strive and produce great results at its fullest potential! The next time your out and you see a smoothie stand by all means ask them what they are putting in it and don’t be afraid to question those ingredients, as I tell my clients if you can’t pronounce it I really don’t think you should allow it in your body. 

Enjoy my homemade smoothies by all means and taste and feel the goodness flow through your body!

Your Inner Beliefs Becomes Your Reality

I use to wonder why I couldn’t push through. I would literally start a project and when I was almost to the finish line. I would give up.  Have you ever been there before?  Well, that was me. I knew that in my heart, I deserved more. I desired more. I wanted to be the best possible version of myself for myself. I would read all the guru books, listen to all the audiobooks, watch all the YouTube videos that promised me I could be anything but only if I believed.  The saying is definitely true. You are what you think about. Just as you are what you eat. I had to stop the self sabotaging of my own belief system. I had to stop making excuses as to why I couldn’t achieve a thing. The hardest thing about becoming your best self is to never stop!  You have to show up for you mentally every single day, even on the days when you don’t want to. I had the inner belief that I wasn’t good enough or deserving of greatness because I allowed my fears of the unknown to hinder me from pushing myself thr

One of my favorite foods in the entire world are pancakes 🥞 but not just any pancakes, it’s my Vegan Homemade Pancakes!
