Juicing Recipes - Ultimate Juice Recipe Resouce

It’s January 3rd, and I’m finally publishing this blog post, but, hey, it’s better late than never, right? Above: Photos from New Year’s Eve I actually wasn’t even sure if I wanted to write a “goals” blog post. I didn’t write one last year – although, I’ve written many over the years – so I went back and forth whether I really wanted to do the whole New Year’s resolution thing. But after a New Year’s Day chat with Mal (we talked about how 2018 felt like a good “reset” and what we wanted to improve upon in the year), I was pretty motivated to set some intentions. Here’s what I came up with! Compartmentalize work life and home life – Ah, yes. This one is a never-ending battle, but I *think* I’m finally getting the hang of it. Three things that are working for me right now: 1) Putting my phone in our bedroom when my family is at home; 2) Working ahead and not leaving things to the last-minute; and 3) Asking myself what really matters at the end of the day. The answer is pretty muc...

Today’s guest post is offered up by one of our own, Erin Power . She’s our awesome Student and Graduate Support Lead for the Primal Health Coach Program as well as an amazingly successful  health coach in her own right. I love her message of starting out the year with a solid, actionable goal in hand—and a practical takeaway for defining that New Year objective. Enjoy, everyone! There’s a tide shift happening—and it’s exciting and inspiring to be a part of it. Within my health coaching practice, I’m finding the entire vernacular changing. When I ask my prospective clients what their Main Health Goals are, I’m not hearing things like “I want to look good in my swimsuit on my beach vacation.” Or, “I want to rock a body-conscious outfit at my high school reunion.” Or even “I want to lose X number of pounds by X day of the year.” Check out these quotes from some of my client Intake Forms over the last six months: “I have an unhealthy relationship with food; I have a sugar addicti...

When I left off Part I of our trip , we were heading over to John’s house for appetizers. Boy, was his spread impressive! He made all of these himself for us to enjoy while we watched football. He drew inspiration from his catering company, Eco Caters , that is quickly becoming one of DC’s most popular organic caterers. So, if you’re local and focus on local/organic food, give them a call! Those shrimp stacks were epic, and I loved the crab-stuffed mushrooms and deviled eggs! Later in the evening we had NYE reservations at The Salt Line , a new oyster and seafood restaurant on the river. Too bad it was in the teens – no outdoor dining for us! I loved all the decor and these napkins! We had a pre-fixe menu with four courses. I started with a celebratory Manhattan! All.the.oysters. My first course was a butterhead lettuce salad. I was craving a good salad and I loved the almonds. Next was a lobster pot pie with a biscuit topping. Loved the biscuit, but the filling wasn...

Good morning and happy 2018, friends! I have some New Year content coming at ya this week, but I wanted to share a video about one of the most common questions I get from CNC followers:  How I make my morning iced coffee ! Here’s how I brew my iced coffee – Mal and I have been making it this same way in the same coffee maker forever . It’s super simple and works great for us! Pro tip: The VARIETY of coffee that you use is much more important than the amount, especially when it comes to the grinds to water ratio . The better (i.e. bolder, stronger, more flavorful), the better your coffee will taste! FEATURED PRODUCTS Stainless Steel Insulated Shaker Bottle  – Ok, so this shaker is  not featured in video, but only because I forgot it at the gym, but it’s my favorite go-to shaker. It works awesome, and it’s so pretty! 🙂 Marine Collagen Powder – I use this mainly to add extra protein to my diet, but it’s also great for anti-aging, digestion, and boosting hair and...
