We’ve all been there: staying at a hotel, with nothing healthy to eat. There’s no kitchen even if you tried to eat better. Maybe there’s not even a grocery store nearby. But if you have a mini-fridge, there are solutions! It can be SO easy to eat healthy and avoid going out to restaurants 3x per day. Here’s how to eat healthy of a hotel room:Tip #1: One of the other practitioners attending the business retreat I went to last week had the GENIUS idea of ordering groceries for delivery from Whole Foods (available with Amazon Prime). This was perfect for ordering items for an easy-to-make breakfast and light lunch! The delivery order was dropped off at the hotel’s front desk. Tip #2: Opt for items that you can combine with other ingredients to make more variety. E.g. hummus can be used as a dip for veggies, or spread onto a tortilla for a wrap. Romaine hearts can be used to dip into hummus, or added to a wrap for a nice crunch. Tip #3: Bring ingredients from home to supplement. E.g. I brought protein powder in a plastic baggie to add to my Greek yogurt, which I then topped with blueberries. (I used the Designs for Health Chocolate PurePaleo Bone Broth Protein Powder which you can buy for 10% off on Fullscript after creating an account) Tip #4: I recommend focusing on 2 things: protein + fiber. That’s what will keep you full, regular in the bathroom, and energized. Here’s my Whole Foods grocery order. This was enough for 2 breakfasts and 1 lunch:

Still pregnant as I write this... it's Tuesday 6/23 and baby is now over a week late, which feels like the universe giving me a lesson to surrender! Baby will come when baby is ready, and all I can do is let go and trust the timing... so we'll see when this little one decides to make an appearance! Last weekend we celebrated a small Blessingway. In case you've never heard of one, a Blessingway is a sacred ceremony traditionally practiced by the Navajo people to honor and support a woman as...
So this is what I've been doing to my drinking water every day... yup, setting it out in the sun. It sounds SO ridiculous and woo-woo, I know. But what the sun is actually doing is helping structure my water. Let’s talk about what the heck that means! What is structured water? The water inside your cells isn't the same as the water coming out of your tap. In your body, water exists in a gel-like state called structured water (you might also hear it called EZ, or exclusion zone water). The...
I had a client tell me recently that she eats tons of fiber every day... and then when I asked her to track her food journal, it was very eye-opening. The real number came out somewhere between 4 and 6 grams daily (she was shooting for at least 25 grams). Yikes. This happens all the time! Most of us assume that if we're having a salad most days, we're reaching our fiber goals (I used to think this, too!). But the reality is that something like a Caesar salad gets you to about 2 grams of...
