  • NATURE'S FAST FOOD and my lunch today... 27 organic figs (one never made it to the plate 😉) and a jumbo organic yellow peach from the farmer's market... 1086 calories, 280 grams of carbs, 12 grams of protein, and 4 grams of fat. This simple meal has met 36% of my nutritional targets today including 147% fiber, 62% iron, 49% calcium, 61% Vit A, 35% Vit C, 18% folate, and much more which I won't all write here. (I use CRON-O-Meter to track my nutritional intake.) 🍑 Raw fruits and vegetables contain fiber, protein, vitamins, and minerals which slows down the breakdown of natural glucose in the body. I STOPPED EATING REFINED SUGAR IN 2014. Refined sugar does not naturally occur in nature and is a highly processed chemical substance. 🍑 Refined sugar is just as addictive as any recreational or pharmaceutical drug because it immensely triggers dopamine levels in the brain. Everyone loves to feel good in life and we all define pleasure in different ways. For many pleasure is found in food, and this same pleasure is often sought out in sugary treats, decadent desserts, or fatty comfort foods often also high in refined sugar. 🍑 Have you ever noticed how the media will say "fat is bad" and we stop eating every form of fat, or that "sugar is bad" and we stop eating every form of sugar. Later on we discover that there are truly healthy forms of fat such as avocados, and there are also healthy forms of natural sugar such as bananas which are fiber, protein, vitamin, and mineral rich. Our body actually needs a specific amount of healthy fat and natural fruit and vegetable sugar in their whole foods form. What's missing in many of these cases is that we take information at face value. We believe everything we read or have been told. 🍑 Eating whole organic fruits and vegetables in abundance is extremely healthy and healing for the body. If you search "SUGAR" on minimalistbeauty.com you will find an article about how I stopped eating refined sugar all together and why I no longer crave it. I used to be highly addicted! 🍑 #beautyfromtheinsideout #minimalistbeauty
  • Go out in nature! We've heard it over and over again but hardly does anyone emphasize to take off your shoes. It's natural to be barefoot at the beach, but it's important to have your bare feet on the earth's surface as much as possible. Connecting with the earth in this way is one of the most powerful healing modalities. 🍃 Earthing has the ability to... 🍃defuse inflammation and inflammation related disorders 🍃minimize or eliminate chronic pain 🍃increase energy and vitality 🍃help improve circulation and digestion in the body 🍃improve blood pressure 🍃promote better sleep at night 🍃reduce stress levels by calming the nervous system 🍃minimize or even eliminate muscle tension and headaches 🍃reduce allergies 🍃relieve menstrual discomfort and hormonal imbalances 🍃speed up the healing process 🍃reduce or eliminate jet lag 🍃protect the body from health disrupting electromagnetic fields aka EMF's 🍃accelerate recovery from intense athletic activity 🍃 When you can't get outside, I shared how I connect with this healing energy at home on minimalistbeauty.com. 🍃 What undeniable benefits have you noticed from spending time outdoors in nature? Have you tried earthing? #onelovedawnmichelle
