Eat (or drink!) your veggies!
(Haha, like the glass?!)
I’m totally loving my new juicing routine, and have even gotten my boyfriend into it! I have the Breville Juice Fountain Plus – a great investment and only $130 if you buy at Bed Bath and Beyond with a 20% coupon.

Today’s nutrition quote from class:

Less than two months until yoga bootcamp, the first week of the yoga teacher training journey I’m embarking upon this year. I’m so excited and can’t believe how soon I’ll be immersed in yoga love – ahhh, heaven! Seriously, it’s the perfect staycation: a week away from daily life, immersed in yoga with an amazing guru (and 8 others who share my passion), filled with discussions, asana practice, meditation and the comforts of home to start and end each day. There’s something so magical about yoga to me and the more I learn, the more I love it so I really can’t wait! (Yep, I might be a yoga dork.)
To prep, I’m reading “Light on Yoga,” by B.K.S. Iyengar. I’m already absorbing so much and am eager to learn more and share. I’m going to document my experiences here at Balancing Wellness – so more to come! Namaste!
