It's been 2 YEARS of that VEG life! 🌿(Biggest reason WHY at the end!💩)
.
Coming from a small town in Saskatchewan surrounded by farming & hunting I certainly never even THOUGHT about going plant-based. I had been eating meat for 28 years! 🐄 However, when it was time to take my YTT intensive, the academy recommended making the switch! So I stopped buying meat to take to work and started cooking up delicious vegetarian meals while away at work. .
.
Honestly, the switch came easy to me. No withdrawals, no regrets just the odd steak craving once in awhile but those washed away within a few months. I embraced more fruits, vegetables, grains and started experimenting in the kitchen, cooking up delicious recreations of old classics. Dining out wasn't an issue either, my options limited but decisions quicker to make 😊 .
.
After returning from my travels at the end of 2016 I decided to keep meat out of my life. I felt leaner, less bloated, lighter! My biggest reason being I was finally REGULAR 🚽(TM!?!) , yes I'm talking about poop. I suffered from sever constipation for YEARS and now was making bowel movements daily. 🙏🏼 .
. .
The vegetarian diet fits MY lifestyle, it pairs well with MY body, I'm not saying it's for everyone but give it a try for awhile, notice how you feel. When my digestion is happy, I am happy and that's why I decided to make the cut 2 years ago. 😁 (More posts on this to come!)

Have you tried vegetarianism? Or are you interested in making the switch? Reach out! 🌿🌿

This resonates with me so much. Instagram is hard work! There is a whole science behind it. Growing numbers, increasing engagement, making sales or raising awareness. All great things but all very tiring as well!

I'm a real person behind this grid. I am living a real life on this earth having a human experience which means late nights, car trouble, last minute coffee talks and mid afternoon naps. Instead of going over my to do list and seeing what I let slip this week, I chose to let life happen and listen to my body. .
Inconsistency is part of my personal brand.
I don't post on here every day, I skip my home yoga practice for extra sleep some mornings and I don't wash my make up off every night! C'est la vie!

All sorts of things can come up while on your mat. 🙂 Use it to support you, to hold space, to float, to balance, to cry into, to jump for joy on or sleep on! 😴 A yoga mat is always there for you when you show up. ❌ No judgement, no criticism, no praise, no hate. Just there showing up day after day! 🙏🏼 What sort of experiences have you had on your yoga mat? #yogaoffthemat #yogamat .

PLEASE READ THROUGH! Does anyone pause and think twice before posting a selfie....? Is it okay to post selfies still? 🤔 I used to do this shamelessly all the time! I don’t believe it was an acceptance or attention thing but maybe it was?! 🤷♀️ As I grow older and shy away from these type of “HEY LOOK AT ME!” posts I’m caught in this weird limbo with SELFIES! 🤳🏻Do I take them? When my make up is on point YES! Do I post them? No, i usually send them to my boyfriend haha. But now my internal struggle is something like this.. “ I’m confident! I’m beautiful! I like this picture! Why not show the instagram world!? I’m proud of myself and my face!😁” on the flip side I think.. “I don’t need to do this, I don’t want to add to the comparison trap that is social media, make others feel worse about themselves or come across bragging 😒” ahhhhhh but here I am, posting a selfie, but also explaining this teeter-totter logic I have. Does anyone else feel like this? Or have these thoughts? What’s your opinion on selfies? Should we do away with them? .

Quote by ME! This is something I tend to say in my yoga classes 🙏🏼 Have you build a relationship with your breath? It is your life force! It is literally with you every waking moment from creation to death 🌬 Taking deep inhales and exhales can pull you out of a hurried state of mind, calm down the heart rate, reduce fight or flight reactions and relax the physical body. Try it RIGHT. NOW! ☺️ Tell me how good it feels! And do this often all throughout your day. Use your breath to help you deal with life’s curveballs, notice when your holding it in or when it becomes shallow. Pay attention! 🧐Kundalini yoga says, the longer the breath the longer the life. So slowly and deeply inhale, bask in it and then release 🙏🏼
