Possibly the Most Random Blog Post to Date

By

Well, guys, this post is quite the random mix of topics: Qigong, walkie talkies, air fryer Parmesan-crusted salmon, and books about mind-body healing. How’s THAT for variety? Haha! I really think this is the most random blog post on CNC to date! 🙂 And I would love to hear which topic you found most interesting. Please leave a comment below with your thoughts!

I tried Qigong for the first time yesterday. I just finished a great book, and its author had amazing success healing her body through through Qigong, so I figured it couldn’t hurt to try. It wasn’t a traditional fitness class in the sense that you were sweating and working super hard, but the moving meditation was really great for relaxing. It’s funny even a few years ago, I would have thought a class like this was a waste of time, but now I realize how important it is for me to calm my mind if I want to live a happy, healthy life. I just feel like Qigong is something I need right now.

Quinn is loving his new walkie talkies, and they’ve become quite the hit in the Haupert household! They’re “just” kid’s walkie talkies and weren’t all that expensive on Amazon, but they work really well and have an awesome 3-mile range, so we’ve had a lot of fun playing with them all over the house and neighborhood. I highly recommend them!

I made Parmesan-crusted salmon in the air fryer the other day, and now it’s become a go-to “recipe.” It was so easy, delicious, and FAST!

I say “recipe” because all I did was spread a little mayo + dijon mustard on the salmon (any fish will work – cod is actually pictured below) and then sprinkled grated Parmesan on top before popping it into the air fryer for about 10 minutes. (I just checked it a couple of times to make sure it was cooked all the way through.) I hope you try it! 🙂

I couldn’t decide which mind-body healing book I should get at the library, so I borrowed them all. I’ve exhausted so many traditional care options over the years and my insides are still bleeding, so I figured I’d give the mind-body approach a try. Wish me luck!

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
