“Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.” ~ 1 John 4:11 ⠀
⠀
I don’t know about you, but these past few days have been very educational. 💡While “muting” myself from sharing wellness lifestyle content won’t last forever, the inner work must always continue. ⠀
⠀
When this is no longer the only thing we see on our feeds and on the news — how can we continue to promote diversity, push our leaders for change, stand up against injustice, and amplify Black voices? ⠀
⠀
I certainly am not an expert on this but am going to do my best to continue to do my part. 🗳 And I’d love to hear some of the things you are doing (and will continue doing) to take action! ⠀
⠀
Real change happens within our hearts and will spread from there. 💕 Be kind. Love your neighbor. Keep speaking up. #ChooseKindness #AmplifyMelanatedVoices

✨ I’ve always shied away from sharing anything

That feeling when you wake up before your alarm ⏰, have a super yummy latte (w/ homemade cashew milk) ☕️, and are ready for a quick morning yoga sesh. ⠀
⠀
Today I’m combining a 10 min killer core class, 10 min booty burn and 15 min “wake up” yoga flow on @alomoves. 💕👏🏻⠀
⠀
I wrote a blog post listing some amazing home workout programs a couple months ago but now that we’re deep into quarantine life, I’d love to know: ⠀
⠀
WHAT WORKOUT ARE YOU LOVING AT HOME? ⠀
⠀
This is your time to give your FAVORITE instructor, fitness studio or workout program a shout out. 💕👏🏻 ⠀

I’ll share a list of your favs on my Stories later so people can check them out. 🎉 #AloMoves

Summer calls for BAKED PEACHES! 🍑 But here’s

Summer calls for BAKED PEACHES! 🍑 But here’s the real question, are they breakfast or dessert? 🤔 ⠀
⠀
Since I went the Greek yogurt route instead of vanilla icecream I’m guessing this is more of a breakfast dish, but that didn’t stop me from eating it this evening! 🍑 😂 ⠀
⠀
If you wanna whip it up for yourself, here’s the recipe I followed from @wellplated 🌸⠀
⠀
SAVE FOR LATER:⠀
⠀
1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees ⠀
2) Cut 5 small peaches in half and remove the pits. Place in small greased baking dish⠀
3) In a bowl, combine:⠀
🔅2 tbsp olive oil⠀
🔅2 tbsp maple syrup⠀
🔅1 tsp cinnamon⠀
🔅 1 tbsp coconut sugar⠀
🔅 1 tsp vanilla extract ⠀
🔅 1/4 tsp salt⠀
4) Pour sauce over peaches and bake for 30 min! Serve with ice cream or Greek yogurt 🍦 ⠀
⠀

Chip is making his FIRST solo yoga debut and my heart could just burst!! ❤️ ⠀
⠀
Here’s the thing about adopting a dog... when you see their progress and how much a loving home can change their attitude in life it’s the most rewarding thing ever. 🐶🎉 ⠀
⠀
The last time I attempted this pose with Chip was 2 months ago and he quickly scrambled to jump off like “mom, wtf are you doing to me?”⠀
⠀
Clearly Nina has taught him well and the fact that he now sits calmly on my legs means his trust in me has grown significantly 💯🥰. ⠀
⠀
Proud of you little Chipperoo.👏🏻⠀
⠀
PS: I’m thinking this could be a fun PHOTO CHALLENGE if you wanna try it with your own pup (or cat)! 😂 #MelDoesYoga #YogaWithDogs

Ready to #SqueezeTheDay? 🍋 In case you’re in

Ready to #SqueezeTheDay? 🍋 In case you’re in need of some positivi-tea ☕️ this morning, I’ve rounded up a few quotes I’ve saved from various IG accounts that will hopefully help you kick off the work week with the right mindset. ⠀
⠀
Spread the love ❤️ and share your favorites with someone who may need to hear it. 😘 .

My current positive mantra that I’m focusing on today (that’s not in this photo roundup) is “I will let go of the things I can not control.” ✨ What is something positive you’re choosing to focus on? 🍋 #positivevibes

INSTAGRAM VS. REALITY. {Swipe for the before}. 🌈 Yep, I’m just casually sitting in my bathtub wishing I was on a tropical beach 🏝 and dreaming of the places I’ll travel to when this pandemic is over. ✈️ ⠀
⠀
Out of curiosity (and to satisfy my wanderlust desires) what is the NUMBER ONE place on your travel destination bucket list?? 🏔🏝⠀
⠀
I hope you all are having a safe and fun MDW weekend at home. 💕 #bathtime

Today’s nourishing lunch: BROCCOLI & BASIL SOUP

Today’s nourishing lunch: BROCCOLI & BASIL SOUP 🥦🌿 with sweet and spicy cashews! ⠀
⠀
I know I’ve been slacking on sharing recipes but I heard you loud and clear that you’d like to see more. 🤪 I know soup seems a bit strange to kickoff summer but trust me, it has all the fresh summer vibes. ☀️ ⠀
⠀
This vegan dish came together in 15 min and is from the “Healthier Together” cookbook by @lizmoody (which was a sweet gift from @erinnnsmith ). 🌿⠀
⠀
The best part is that this soup has 5️⃣ ingredients and tastes so fresh and yummy! 🌱 I low key wasn’t sure if I was going to like it (because what’s broccoli soup without the cheddar!?) but dang, I was definitely in for a nice surprise. 😄⠀
⠀
SAVE TO MAKE LATER:⠀
⠀
1) Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat ⠀
2) Stir in one chopped yellow onion and cook till translucent ⠀
3) Add 3 cups of frozen broccoli and 1/2 cup water or veggie broth (I used @owlvenice) + 1/4 tsp salt. Cover and cook for 5 min⠀
4) Add 1 can of coconut milk, 1 cup of fresh basil and juice of 1 lime ⠀
5) Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. Add more salt to taste ⠀
⠀
For the sweet & spicy cashews just toast 1/3 cup raw cashews in a dry skillet over medium heat. Once golden (5 min) add 2 tbsp honey, 1/4 teaspoon paprika and 1/4 teaspoon salt! Stir to combine. ⠀
⠀
Ladle soup into bowls and add the cashews so you get one in every bite! 🌿 ⠀
⠀
For the next recipe I make from this book, would you like to see an appetizer, entree or dessert? 🤔👇🏼 #MelsMeals

GUESS WHO IS OFFICIALLY A @YESTO AMBASSADOR!? 🥒

WHICH ROOM IN YOUR HOME GIVES YOU ALL THE HAPPY VI

WHICH ROOM IN YOUR HOME GIVES YOU ALL THE HAPPY VIBES? ⠀
⠀
I love our living room but I have to say this little sun-filled corner of our office is where I find myself most mornings. ☀️ ⠀
⠀
When I first started figuring out my “home decor” style years ago, I was so afraid to step out of neutral tones. ✨ I thought too much color would look childish or weird. And it would be so different from the majority of my friend’s apartments. 😣⠀
⠀
When we moved into this new place last summer, I decided EFF the old rules. I took a risk with hand painting the wall and adding a bold accent chair and rug. 🌱⠀
⠀
Not gonna lie, I’m so glad I did. 🍊🎨☀️ Everytime I look at this room I can’t help but smile. ⠀
⠀
Just goes to show that when you let your creativity shine, you can create a space that truly sparks inner joy. 💕 #HomeSweetHome

Let this be your reminder to GET UP AND STRETCH!!

Let this be your reminder to GET UP AND STRETCH!! 🧘🏻‍♀️ It’s been awhile since I’ve shared one of these #YogaTips and this one seems even more crucial these days. ⠀
⠀
With many of us sitting more than we’re used to, there’s a much bigger need to stretch multiple times every day. Especially before and after a workout! ⠀
⠀
These four poses are some of my favs for stretching out all of those sticky areas: shoulders, chest, hips, quads and hamstrings. The benefits? ⠀
⠀
✨ Less tension ⠀
✨ Reduces risk of injury⠀
✨ Prevents low back pain ⠀
✨ Improves posture ⠀
✨ Calms and relaxes your mind⠀
✨ Increases range of motion ⠀
✨ Circulates nutrients throughout the body⠀
✨ Feels really really good ⠀
⠀
SHARE this with someone who needs to stretch!! 💕 #MelDoesYoga #MyYogaLife
