Quick review of an awesome product I got to try out recently called Twinkle Toes Deodorizing Purification Spray by @barefootscientist . --- It's made with essential oils and pretty natural ingredients. You just need a few spritzes into your smelly sneakers or directly onto your feet or socks to prevent and eliminate odor. It's also hypoallergenic, cruelty-free, and free of pthalates and parabens. This spray actually has bacteriocidal and antifungal ingredients that prevent odors and with the combination of botanicals, it'll smell fresh and clean! I sprayed it into my sneakers that I wear on-call a lot and my loafers which have been worn way too many times (and accidentally in terrible weather too), which both needed this badly. 🤐 It's great if you have a favorite pair of shoes that you wear heavily and they're starting to get a little smelly. ➡️ For more info, check out the link in my profile! ⬅️
Listening to some personal development while drinking my superfood shake this morning. ☀ I'm so glad I was introduced to Shakeology 3 years ago. I've been drinking it every day since then and it's been a game changer in my energy and health. I'm usually in a rush every morning (gotta work on setting up a more mindful morning), so it's nice to throw together my superfood shake filled with all the vitamins, minerals, prebiotics, prebiotics, antioxidants, phytonutrients, etc. that I need for the day into a blender with some unsweetened almond milk and be on my way! That's not to mention how much this shake has helped with cravings. I no longer have the feeling of "Omg I have to eat everything in sight" when I drink this regularly 😂 and that's huge for me, being a foodie and all. Had so much trouble waking up this morning knowing I'm the only resident covering clinic at the VA today. Hopefully the snow will keep everyone away🤞 ➡️ Comment below or DM me if you're interested in trying it out or learning more! ⬅️
"Nobody is too busy. It's just a matter of priorities." --- That's my "thank goodness I'm done my double workout and now it's time to cool down and stretch" face. 😆 {This is what I get for missing my workouts Thurs and Fri} Ever wonder how some people seem to get an insane amount of things done in a day while others simply complain about not having time? Everyone has 24 hours in a day, but those who are efficient with their time and prioritize what's important always get what they need to do done. But that only comes with knowing what's important first! ✨ For me, that's working on my own health and fitness while navigating through residency. Yes, being a doctor is my job but for me, taking care of my body is just as, if not more, important. Because how can I help my patients if I don't help myself first and practice what I preach? Getting a workout in (or in my case today, catching up on workouts I missed today 🤐) is extremely important for me (and keeps me sane). So when people tell me, "I'm too busy to workout," that simply means "I don't want to prioritize my own health." You're never too busy for the things and the people you care about and are important to you. And that's true for everyday tasks, friendships, and relationships.
Happy Galentine's Day!! Catching up over Korean BBQ. ❤️
Happy Galentine's Day to all the ladies!! ❤️ Whether you're single, engaged, married, or in a relationship, take some time to love on yourself today! For me, that's getting a great workout in after a long day at work in my brand new rose gold sneakers that I gifted to myself for Valentine's Day (because who needs a man to make you feel special?!) ➡️What are you doing to treat yourself today?⬅️
One of my favorite go-to dinners that's quick, easy, and healthy! Ingredients: ▪️Wild caught salmon ▪️Organic Arugula ▪️Everything but the bagel seasoning (TJs) Just heat up coconut oil (or oil of your choice - sometimes I'll use olive oil) in a pan, add salmon, add seasoning and pan sear for 2-3 min on each side, and top over a bed of arugula. And then drizzle with some dressing! Voila! Healthy doesn't have to take an immense amount of time or money. 😁 This is perfect because you're getting your serving of veggies along with plenty of protein and omega-3s!
