Keep reading for all of my Intentions, Wellness and Workout Tips for a Better You + My 15 Favorite Beauty Things Too! And I’m also sharing how I combat stress and support my immune and digestive system during the winter months. What’s your Vision for 2020? What actually even is an Intention?
Deepak Chopra said, “Intentions are the starting point of every dream—the seed of creation.” Or a statement or declaration of what you both desire and consciously intend to be, learn, do, have, feel or experience in a coming period of time, like the coming year. Keep reading for one of my most inspiring and informational post’s to date…
*Tips to help get 7-8 hours of sleep: keep room at 67 degrees, have your phone turn to dark mode at sunset + turn your brightness down on your computer and phone, try to go to bed at the same time each night and no caffeine after 3pm.
+ Incorporate more plant-based foods in my diet and less meat. They are rich in antioxidants and fiber plus work to keep your immune system strong. One way I’ve been doing this is by adding the Sakara At Home Plant-Rich Ready-To-Eat Meals to my Diet.

Speaking of working out I’d like to discuss now a new workout I’ve been trying lately trying called Ninety20. Why is it called Ninety20? Because it’s a 20 minute EMS (Electro Muscular Stimulation) workout that equates to a 90 minute high-intensity gym class or personal training session. EMS training is a highly effective and safe method to improve your physical performance. And these workouts can easily be added along with your existing workout routine. Only one class a week is recommended.
Use the Online Booking Calendar or download the Ninety20 App and create an account which takes less than one minute and book your trial session directly online. If you don’t have the time to create an account now, then just fill in out Contact Form Here.
You can do either a private or a partner session. Your first, trial session costs $20 and takes around 40 to 60 minutes. It consists of an initial consultation where the trainer will discuss your lifestyle, goals and potential injuries followed by a customized 20 minute EMS workout. I do the partner session with my one of my daughters or one of my girlfriends.
You don’t need to bring any special clothing. They’ll provide you with everything you need, including refreshment towels and bottled water. Some people choose to wear sneakers and some just go barefoot. *And update they now have brand new wireless suits, so no more cords like above!
Since I only do Nintey20 once a week I also do a mixture of personal training with John Benton (find out more information on his type of exercises here and here). And I must say my hips are slimmer and my legs and abs are more toned since I began working out with him over 3 years ago! And even if you don’t live in Dallas you can still do his workouts online from anywhere. I also do Pilates Megaformer Classes at Studio6 (my favorite is Buns & Guns see what it looks like here) & Extreme Studio Performance personal training with my daughters too. And lastly, a variety of classes at Equinox.
During the winter months the hardest thing for most people (including me) is staying properly HYDRATED & healthy. You might remember my earlier post where I focused on hydration. I talk about which water is best for you and whether or not you are drinking enough. Its fairly easy to maintain hydration during the summer months, but it is much more difficult during these winter months.
We are put to the true test of keeping our bodies properly hydrated in colder weather. A good rule of thumb is to start out your day with 24 ounces of water along with a healthy, balanced meal loaded with all your nutrients for the day. I know what you’re thinking who has time for that? Well look no further than my Crucial Four mBreakfast shake.
Keep reading for tips and suggestions on what I do to stay healthy…
mBreakfast shake has been a part of my daily morning routine for 7 years+ (even when I’m traveling). I believe that it has truly changed my life. I have more energy, sleep better, have less stress, and there is no doubt that it has positively affected my overall quality of life.
mBreakfast was formulated to contain what we Americans are missing from our diets. The shakes are 100% organic and contain wild sourced algae, biotic extracts, superior herbs, and medicinal mushrooms. These four missing food groups help us move toward a more active metabolic state, which then creates optimal health and wellness. They contain no artificial ingredients, fillers, flow agents, or byproducts. mBreakfast is 100% food and has a shelf life of up to six months. It is organic mind-body fuel for clean, efficient, and sustained energy. Energy, stress relief, immunity, and performance are critical for everyday life. I like to make sure that I’m starting my day off fresh with the best choices possible. And most importantly with enough energy for my morning workout and for the rest of my day.
For my followers Crucial Four is offering free samples of mbreakfast to try here!
What I add to my mbreakfast shake each morning: cashew or almond milk, mcollagen, tablespoon of organic coconut oil and ice (sometimes I add a little more protein as well to my shake the Dr. Mercola Vegan Protein in Vanilla, Sweet Cinnamon & sometimes Chocolate). When traveling I simply just add water. I blend my shake in this blender that comes with it’s own cups for easy travel afterwards also. And best of all because of it’s small size I even travel with it as well!
As we age we produce less and less collagen, with mCollagen (for those of you who don’t eat meat I love this Marine Collagen or here is another this collagen) we can get the amount of these peptides we all require. I add this to my mbreakfast shake every morning.
What makes Crucial Four’s mCollagen Different? Crucial Four uses only grass-fed collagen peptides. What are the benefits? Collagen peptides can help support: leaky gut syndrome, nourish your skin, hair, joints, and teeth, support metabolism and detoxification, reduces aging and can help you enter deeper sleep.
I have found that this mCBD+ Organic Superherb Chocolate Bar handcrafted artesian vegan cacao bar helps me sleep at night. The Cacao is wild high mountain grown and infused with 600mg (therapeutic dosage) of our Solvent-free 4:1 Wild Ashwagandha extract with 10mg of our organic Full Spectrum CBD oil. Blue zone Sun-dried Cane Crystals are used and a touch of coconut nectar with Icelandic sea salt to create an 80% Dark Chocolate bar that tastes amazing! Each bar has only 2 grams of sugar per serving with three servings per bar.
My daughter also takes this for her tremors (as she did not like how the medicine made her feel that a doctor had prescribed). And this has been doing wonders for her. I also have several friends that take this or the mCBD+ 300mg Organic CBD Oil + American Ginseng to help with them with hormones and as a sleep aid each night as well.
During these winter months adequate D3 intake or another words getting proper SUNLIGHT is a must! This is very easy for most to do in the summer months but not so much in the freezing cold winter months. Not to mention that the sunlight in the winter is still not sufficient enough to stimulate the production of vitamin D in our skin. That is why I always supplement in the winter months with mVita D3 (& found here too)from crucial four as well. I personally use this product year round but it is especially important this time of year.
Vitamin D is necessary for our bodies metabolic health because it works as a hormone with major organs like our heart, kidneys, skin, and muscles. Its three major functions help us to absorb, transport, and metabolize essential minerals (calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc) that perform vital functions for our bones. Vitamin D promotes proper cell development and also helps regulate the immune system.
I also take I take a daily dose of mDefense by crucial four that is made from the fruit camu camu. You must be willing and ready to help support your immune response with VITAMIN C and CHAGA. And by this I don’t mean the synthetic form of Vitamin C packets you pick up at your local grocery store. This source of vitamin C is one of the highest concentrated food sources of vitamin C out there. It’s ability to boost the immune system, reduce inflammation, detox the body and prevent cognitive disorders are just some of the many benefits this fruit has to offer.
To build up your immune system even further I suggest trying mImmune which is made from chaga, also known as the mushroom of immortality! Chaga is usually found on birch trees, it is there to aid the tree and its longevity. Some of these trees live as long as 10,000 years. People benefit from chaga in the same way the trees do, to help your body fight the effects of stress, disease, and even fight against premature aging and prevention of serious diseases. By taking the mImmune daily you too can experience the health benefits of wild chaga. This is the same plant responsible for the exceptional health and longevity of the Siberian tribes-people.

Lastly, we must continue to EXERCISE during these cold winter months and not just curl up and binge watch Netflix series after series. When our body is in a stagnant state our adrenals become fatigued, which leads to the cravings of bad foods like heavy carbohydrates and sweets. Yes it makes it more difficult to just go outside and take a walk or jog because of the cold weather in the winter. But there are local gyms you can join for group classes or private training and you can even invest in some resistance bands to use at home as well.
You might remember me telling you about Formula Wellness Center (for those of you that live in or around the Dallas area) where I go for help with my health and wellness. And great news they have a second location in Ft. Worth, plus now a third location is open West Village as well. For those of you that want to jump start your health and fitness for 2020 you should definitely check them out here and here!
It’s truly been a game changer. I discovered through an allergy test at Formula Wellness that two things I was eating and putting into my body pretty much every single day (almonds and eggs) I was severely allergic to. I did not eat these two things plus several other things I found out I was allergic to for a year. Then I started to reintroduce them slowly back into my diet.
Dr. Rudman also helps me keep my thyroid function in order as well all my hormone levels. And he does all of my blood work as well every few months. I am feeling so much better now its just unbelievable. Plus losing some weight but gaining muscle is an added bonus! Their Weight Loss Programs they will tailor to your unique needs and goals, resulting in more sustainable weight loss. From Supplements to Vitamin Infusions to Fit Shots to Hormone Replacement Therapy Dr. Rudman & Chrissy absolutely cover it all.
I also wanted to talk a little bit about Enlighten MD Med Spa. You might remember seeing me visit there a few months back for Ultherapy. I’ve been so happy with it so far and I’m even going to be going back for my ‘booster’ in a couple weeks as well. So I wanted to make sure I mentioned them here but much more information will be coming. What’s Ultherapy? A non-invasive skin tightening treatment (that I did on my neck and lower face). Find out more HERE.
Plus I’m also doing Photofacial on my chest in a couple of weeks. What’s a Photofacial? That improves and rejuvenates your skin from all the harmful affects of the sun. And we know I love going to the beach. Find out more about it HERE.
Some other things I’m thinking about doing but haven’t yet are: Permanent Brow Makeup, Laser Hair Removal, and some of their amazing facials. Plus I have so many friends that go here for their Botox & Fillers as well.
I try to eat well, exercise, and drink lots of water throughout the day. And every morning I start my day by drinking hot water with lemon, cayenne and apple cider vinegar. I believe this is no doubt one of the best beauty elixir’s out there. Plus I recently found this apple cider version recently that has all those ingredients already mixed together as well as with honey too that helps with bitterness.
“Amazing is one word to describe apple cider vinegar, which indeed appears to be a superfood of epic proportions, containing acetic acid (a promoter of “good” and killer of “bad” bacteria in the gut), probiotics, polyphenols, potassium, and magnesium, along with all manner of beneficial enzymes.
The health claims around it (and by “it” I’m referring to raw organic apple cider vinegar with “mother”—the often cloudy-looking beneficial compounds included), range from support for blood sugar balance, weight loss, and lowered blood pressure, to antifungal and antibacterial benefits, balanced vaginal pH, increased energy, clearer skin, and appetite suppression—to name a few.” So if you aren’t already drinking it then I suggest you start tomorrow!
Plus my daughter and I are totally obsessed with drinking these too!
Winter is a time to store good traditional, nutrient dense foods like bone broth, root vegetables, and high protein. Keeping the body active and storing these suggested foods in the body during the winter, will help prevent the body from getting weak and ill.
These Complete Probiotics for Women Capsules are my go-to. They promote optimal growth of healthy bacteria and provide support for your immune health. And of course they are GMO Free, Gluten Free, and Soy Free. Plus 10 different probiotic strains that demonstrate high potency through independent laboratory tests. But most importantly it supports also the health of the vaginal microbiome and immune system. All of his products are backed by a full 90-day money back guarantee too.
