We didn’t get a great photo together to document 10 years of marriage, but we did have an amazing time celebrating. 💍🥂

That’s all that really matters, right?

Thank you to @oak_tuscantrufflelounge for treating us like VIPs! The food was incredible, the wine pours were heavy and the black summer truffle shavings were phenom. 👌🏼

Here’s to the next decade ahead, @shesington.

I LOVE you! 🤍 #hbshinnyc

There can be a lot of pressure that goes into living a healthy lifestyle, especially for someone who hasn’t started the journey yet. 👇🏼

Let’s chat about common statements and myths that are told in the health and fitness space. We’re answering questions, so let me know if you have any others that you’d like to address!

Are you looking to up your daily movement and activity level?

Workouts are great for this, but sometimes we have to get more creative when our schedules get busier or we become glued to our computers during busy seasons. 💁🏽‍♀️💻

Try these tips!

✔️ Stand during phone calls.

✔️ Schedule walks into your routine.

✔️ Take the stairs as much as possible.

✔️ Get up and stretch your limbs often.

✔️ Drink water (trust me, this will have you moving to the restroom often!).

✔️ Use a standing desk or a stability ball as your desk chair.

… and more tips and details on Life In Leggings in the full blog post “How To Easily Add More Movement Into Your Days” here:

I firmly believe in structured workout programs, but getting those extra steps in where you can is also very beneficial.

What’s your favorite way to move these days? 🤸🏻‍♀️ #lifeinleggingsfitness #movemore

🚜 There is, in fact, a farm you can visit in New York City. @greenmeadowsfarmbk is located in the very south point of Brooklyn, and it has plenty of animals to see and pet including llamas, cows, sheep, goats, horses and more.

🍫 Dark chocolate (a square or two a day) can help improve bad cholesterol and lower blood pressure. It can also help reduce stress! *yesss*

🏃🏼‍♀️ You can boost your immunity by working out! Seriously. Exercising regularly helps boost your immune system, which can help protect you from getting sick.

🇨🇦 Canada is actually south of Detroit (just look at a map). It blew my mind when I lived about 30 minutes from the country’s border back in Rochester Hills, MI!
⁣
☀️ And finally, the last day of summer is September 20th. Did you realize the season was officially this long? (I didn’t. Hopefully it doesn’t stay this hot for the duration this year.) Stay hydrated out there!

Over the weekend I had so many “should have” thoughts …⁣
⁣
“I should be doing this right now.”⁣
“I should be a better parent today.”⁣
“I should have completed this by now.”⁣
“I shouldn’t still be struggling with this.”⁣

Listen. We’re all in the middle of different seasons, challenges and circumstances. And we’re all just doing our best, taking things one chapter at a time.⁣
⁣
👇🏼🤍👇🏼✨⁣
⁣
I’ll go ahead and admit that I was hard on myself about several things over the weekend, and taking a few days off from the gym is an example that I know some of you can relate to. I didn’t plan it, and while I am ALL for taking breaks when you need them, it makes me uncomfortable when those breaks happen outside of a plan.⁣

You can be hard on yourself for what you didn’t do or you can give yourself the grace you deserve, realize that Rome wasn’t built in a day and try harder the next day.
⁣
I really hope that you choose the latter.⁣
⁣
Because you deserve it.⁣

Exercise can and should be something that you look forward to! 👏🏻👏🏽👏🏾 [ S W I P E ]

Your brain creates less push back on doing the things you like to do, so hopefully these tips help you discover new things to try and incorporate into your workout routine. And if you’re in a serious boredom funk, maybe take a week to unplug and rest from workouts, reassess and restructure.

What’s one thing that you’re willing to change this week? I’ll go first …⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
This week I’m dedicating three of my mornings to study over coffee before the house wakes up. I used to be in a great habit of getting this quiet time in on the regular, but my anything-but-predictable sleep schedule and past few weeks of feeling in a funk have taken that over. There’s no consistency, and that’s what I’m craving. ⁣⁣☕📚⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
So. Tomorrow. I am setting the alarm and I am waking up to coffee and my study materials, and that’s one change for the better to hit my end goals. ⏰✨⁣
⁣⁣⁣
𝗪𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐘𝐎𝐔?! Tell me one small change you can make this week that will have a huge impact on your future habits? 👇🏼 #lifeinleggingsquotes #mindsetmonday
