Celebrate You 🌸 Feel-Good Recipes for a Radiant Summer Energy

Happy Mother's Day !

I LOVE Summer, and this one is all about rejuvenation, color, and a Love for fresh new energy—and your food is one of the primary ways to get there!

You know what? food does more than just fill you up, it carries an energy in its color, taste, smell, and the way it intrinsicly works in your body. Bright red tomatoes cool and protect your skin in the sun. Deep greens nourish and refresh. Juicy colorful fruits hydrate and energize. Every color has a job, and every meal is a chance to support your body and all its functions.  It's up to YOU to be the pilot and take the right path and make those right choices.

After a hibernating Winter, and a blooming Spring, Summer is the perfect time to reset your body with meals that feel alive—fresh, colorful, and full of purpose. You don’t need to overthink it. Just choose foods that look like they came from nature, not a package.

 To help you start your Summer refresh, I've included below a few of my NEW Summer recipes to help you along the way! Let me know how you like them!

Let’s keep it easy and radiant and bring in more of that fresh, feel-good energy you need and deserve.

In health and vitality,

Lisa

10 Ways to Nourish Mom Inside and Out

Let’s celebrate the incredible strength, love, and dedication that mothers pour into their families every day. As we honor those special women in our lives, let's also remember to prioritize self-nourishment.

Here are ten ways for moms to indulge in self-care and fill their own cups on this special day.

1. Make Meals Nutritious + Delicious: Wholesome meals packed with fruits, vegetables, protein, healthy fats, and whole grains to fuel your body and mind.

2. Hydrate From Within: Remember to drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated inside and out.

3. Move Your Beautiful Body Mindfully: Enjoy some gentle exercise or yoga to stretch your body and ease tension. Focus on connecting with your breath and releasing any stress or anxiety.

4. Self-Care Rituals That Spark Joy: Dedicate time for self-care rituals such as a relaxing bath with essential oils, meditation, or journaling to reflect on your thoughts and emotions.

5. Prepare Healthy Snacks Ahead: Keep nourishing snacks on hand like nuts, seeds, small protein snacks, or cut-up veggies to curb hunger and keep your energy levels stable throughout the day.

6. Take In Nature: Spend time outdoors, whether it's going for a walk in the park, gardening, or simply sitting in your backyard to soak up some vitamin D and fresh air.

7. Treat Yourself: Enjoy the sweetness of a piece of dark chocolate, a smoothie bowl, one of my balls, or a homemade fruit salad.

8. Schedule Time To Unplug: Take a break from screens and technology to disconnect from the outside world and fully immerse yourself in the moment.

9. Connect With Others: Spend quality time with your family or loved ones, whether it's cooking a meal together, playing games, or simply enjoying each other's company.

10. Express Gratitude: Take a moment to reflect on all the things you're grateful for and appreciate the beauty of motherhood and the love that surrounds you.
