Starting The Day :)

Being that we live right across from the beach I love to get up before the sun and watch the incredible Hawaiian Sunrises. The morning air is so calm, quiet, and heavenly. It makes me feel that I'm not on this earth. I love soaking my feet in the water, taking long deep breathes, focusing on the positive, being grateful!

Then coming home to stretch, breakfast, and my morning juice makes starting the day off right! I've been on a lime kick because a friend gave us a bag full of fresh limes off of her tree. And they are so so good! It gave the perfect taste to my juice this morning of...2 carrots, 1 celery, small bunch of parsley, 1/2 thumb size of ginger, 1 six inch chunky cucumber, and 1/2 a lime.

Chicken Lime Salad


Organic greens, carrots, cucumbers, & celery. Shredded chicken from a whole chicken I baked.

With freshly squeezed lime juice.

These limes are oh so good!

They are straight off our friends tree!

After spending some time in Mexico I came to appreciate lemons and limes. At every meal they were placed on the table to go with our meals. Lemons and limes are also have amazing alkanizing  effects on our bodies.

Fresh Squeezed OJ

We love getting out our little mini hand juicer and making fresh squeezed orange juice. We also added in fresh squeezed lime juice this time. One of my kids is sick, so as I was juicing we started talking about the importance of eating one special vitamin that is in oranges, as we all probably know...Vitamin C! I love talking about the different vitamins and minerals in fruits and veggies with them and categorizing fruits and/or veggies with the same vitamins. I want them to know why they are eating it, what it will do, and how it keeps their bodies happy, healthy, and strong! Their little minds soak up so much and my kids are remembering more and more about all the good things wholefoods can do for our bodies!
