Hello Steemians!
I am Really excited to join this new family. I recently Joined THis Awesome community. I was a regular visitor of Steemit from past couple of weeks and reading amazing posts from my fellow steemians like firepower; acidyo; sweetsssj; timsaid and many more... You all directly or indirectly inspired me to bring my foot forward and join this community of free speech platform.I hope you welcome me to Steemit as much as I welcome this new opportunity.Without any further delay, let’s come to the point which is the reason behind this of mine, i.e, my introduction.
I Am
"Domestic Princess"
"Health Pincess"
I Am
"Sarah Stevenson"
If I’m not waking up and heading straight out the door to smash out my 6am full-body workout, the first thing I do is make my bed. I know – my Mother would be so proud right!? I’m a self-proclaimed clean freak and love to work in a neat and tidy space. I always like to start my day with warm lemon water, followed by organic bone broth to assist in muscle recovery and gut healing. I eat my breakfast I usually reward myself with a sneaky bike ride up to my favourite coffee shop for a long black with a dash of almond milk. YUM! You’re a busy person and your days are packed with activity, training and work commitments – how do you unwind? My motto in life is ‘listen to your body’. I truly try to live by this every day, which means my activities, training, diet and unwinding routine vary every single day. If I’m feeling agitated or stressed my go-to is hot yoga! I love to move my body, sweat it out and immerse myself in the intention for that class. Other times I’m easily pleased with a healthy hot chocolate and net-flix. I’m a sucker for a good health doco!
I’m a super sensitive sleeper! As a child we couldn’t work out why I couldn’t fall asleep or I would wake up to the feeling of a hair falling across my face, eventually the doctor diagnosed me with hyper-sensitivity (I know… who even knew that was a thing right!?). Nowadays I have a strict bedtime routine I like to stick to, to ensure my body is relaxed and ready to sleep. At least one hour before I head off to bed I try to eliminate all screens from my eyes. No phones, T.V or computer. After my shower I massage a unique blend of sleep inducing essential oils onto the pressure point of my body. I’m pretty much like a walking lavender flower by 10:30pm. I’ve always found something calming about story-time I suppose. I also focus on listening to my breath and inhaling deeply into my chest to help relax my entire body, helping me drift off to sleep.
I always make sure to include a healthy source of fat into each of my meals and snacks. My favourite healthy sources of fat come from avocados, flax seed oil, nuts, seeds, oily fish and coconut oil. I include a good quality source of protein in every main meal to assist in muscle recovery and love to snack on carbohydrates derived from whole foods. Usually this is just fruit, paleo bars, fruit and nut mix and smoothies. Getting enough healthy fats throughout the day always helps my sleeping habits. If I’m finding it particularly difficult to fall asleep or stay asleep, I’ll take a shot of cod liver oil before bed (I know this sounds gross but I swear by it!). I also try to avoid cacao, coffee and cinnamon an hour before heading off to bed as I find these ingredients stimulate my brain.
Following " listen to Your Body" Soon I am Starting A video series Including workout and food routine To maintain health Proply. And I will post my workout videos,mages, Healthy Food Recipies, And Much more fun. Please stay in touch Keep following Me.
