Chocolate-Covered Dates and Yoga

 I like chocolate. Okay, that's not really true. I love chocolate. But I'm also into healthy eating. So when I found a recipe for Almond-Butter Chocolate Covered Dates in Samah Dada's new cookbook, Dada Eats Love to Cook It: 100 Plant-Based Recipes for Everyone at Your Table, I promptly copied the recipe. I used regular peanut butter and dark chocolate (plus the recommended sea salt). Oh my yum!😋You guys have to try it, but not mine because they're gone already!

Enjoying:

My new yoga routine! For the last few years, I've been doing the same workout. Between burnout and flaring anxiety, I felt like it was time for something different. I needed the reminder to breathe and wanted to get more flexible. Yoga accomplishes both. I've been making my way through Boho Beautiful Yoga's "Beginner & Relaxing Yoga Classes" playlist on YouTube, and I'm really enjoying it! In every video, Juliana reminds you to breathe and encourages you to challenge yourself while not pushing your body too far. I would encourage you to follow this last part, especially if you have an injury or an area of the body that is easily aggravated.

I'd love to chat fitness with you on social media! Do you do yoga? Do you run? Lift? Let me know!🏃🏋

Blessings,
