What is your definition of success?? This is a BIG question so take the last couple weeks heading into the new year to think about it?? Xoxo

Oh CanadaAaa!!!!!! Headed up North to run our hands over the beautiful wild grass fields of Alberta. What a dream!!
Today we are grabbing some grass and turning it into juice powders for an amazing boost to our sunshine in a glass.
Wheat, Barley, Oat and Kamut, oh my!! All these add a mighty punch made easy by Canadian farmers picking the grass at the EXACT right time. THANK YOUUUU!!
ps. Did you know wheat grass is gluten-free?? What?? Apparently, wheat doesn't contain gluten UNTIL it produces a seed, then it becomes a grain. Hence...containing gluten and harvested for bread and what not. So all my gluten free babes...next time you see some wheat grass..blend it up and drink away!! :)

For some reason this message felt so meaningful today...."you'll never regret a workout you did, just the one you skipped" If you change "workout" with just about anything, you are looking at a beautiful life lesson. Blessings and ❤

"I chuckle to myself, recalling how Stu (the exotic additives broker) pleaded with me to try so-called “papain extract” from plants that were genetically engineered in a pharmacological lab. Some people just don’t understand that the body doesn’t absorb lab-made substances the way it absorbs nature-made ones." --Darin
The truth is, sometimes we all forget about the lab manufactured ingredients that sneak into our diet, so it's nice to know that this company is consciously making sure it doesn't!
SEARED SCALLOPS WITH SPICY PAPAYA SAUCE
Bonus: Here is a little yummy recipe to try! Although you might not be able to get your hands on Costarican papaya, you can get the benefits from this amazing fruit by picking up one or two at your local grocery store! Cheers to an amazing dinner! (Don't like scallops?? Use chicken or fish)

Off we go into another jungle..my favorite jungle to be exact..COSTA RICA!! Who's been here??
If you haven't gone then please..please think about going..it has sooo much to offer and you will not be disappointed! Apparently, Costa Rica is the land of the world's finest Papayas which is the superfood we are hunting down today.
Papaya's contain PAPAIN (an enzyme) which has so many amazing benefits, most highly noted is the ability to protect your cells and soothe digestion. But click on the picture and have a quick read...I'll be dreaming of the beautiful beaches, amazing food and afternoon thunderstorms. :)

"The Astragalus plant is actually a cousin of the pea family, with more than 2,000 varieties. In China, they’ve used it since before the time of Christ for therapeutic healing. They tell how it helps strengthen the immune system, increase energy and vitality, and helps keep you young for what seems like forever." --Shakeology novel 1
Well then...where do I sign up? The anti aging mystery has been solved! haha
But in all reality the benefits of the ASTRAGALU'S ROOT ranges from anti aging all the way to healing properties including: increased metabolism, circulation.
SO head out and find some amazing astragalu's root crushed up and made into tea for a yummy afternoon tea OR if you prefer pick up some Shakeology because it is ACTUALLY already IN the mix along with many other anti aging and immune boosting ingredients!
Happy Monday and cheers to healthy bodies and beautiful skin! :)

Today we are checking into China..if only I could get a stamp on my passport! Although, I have been lucky enough to go to China when I was much younger and even with ALL the people..it is a cool place. The farm land is amazing and the deep sense of culture is beautiful!
In China we are heading out to the mountains in the Yangshuo Region were bugs are giant and snakes are venomous. One we get there we are search of the beautiful astragalus fields. So enjoy the amazing scenery this Friday and dream you were there; tomorrow we will get to the good stuff! :)

I know Shakeology is expensive...I get it! But I want to remind you all that it is a HEALTH SHAKE with ingredients that you can't just add easily to a protein shake..it's been proven to be one of the best! The ingredients have been carefully selected and I would like to dedicate a little time to knowledge! Know what you are putting in your body BEFORE you do friends. Sooo...ALL December we are going to take a dive deeper from the journal of Darin Olien..the creator of this amazing liquid! SO enjoy the read...it is a beautiful one. "If you aren't learning, you are dying!"
