Did you know that statistics show most people give up on the new year resolutions by the third week in January? As we get into our new routines, life can simply get in the way of everything we had hoped to achieve in the beginning of the year. In order to keep working towards my resolutions, I started using products that help me reach all of my goals! Keep reading for my new year resolutions and the products that are helping me succeed! 

EXERCISING 3X A WEEK

One of my new year goals is to start hitting the gym at least three times a week! Although I started this year off really great, I ended up getting a cold that got me out of my gym routine. I think it’s really important for me to invest in my overall health and wellness, so I recently started using AfterShokz Aeropex open-ear headphones to motivate me to push through every workout.  I have found that music really helps me keep up with my fitness goals! Unlike traditional headphones, AfterShokz rest outside of the ears and use bone conduction technology to transmit sound. They are extremely lightweight, comfortable, and stay in place so I can focus on getting through my workout without having to adjust my headphones. They allow me to tune in, without tuning out my workout. They are even sweat proof and have an 8-hour battery life! You can use code RESET50 for $50 off an Endurance Aeropex bundle between now through 3/6/2020.

FOCUSING ON MY SKINCARE

Being a busy mom and business owner, it would be a lie if I said I always make time for my skincare! I have recently gotten into a bad habit of not washing my makeup off at the end of the day - which is terrible for my skin! As I’m getting older, it’s important now more than ever to focus on high quality skincare. The best time to invest in skincare is now! I recently switched up my skincare routine with Alpha Skin Care and have been loving the results. Their three step introductory kit will help you see and feel a difference in your skin in just days. Their refreshing face wash is a gentle soap-free formula that uses Citric Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) to gently cleanse and remove make-up, dirt, excess oil, and skin impurities after a long day. It restores ideal pH balance and is a great first step in your morning or evening skincare routine. 

After using the cleanser, I apply the 10% AHA Essential Renewal Lotion for anti-aging benefits. It gently lifts away dull, dead skin cells revealing new, younger-looking skin. It reduces the appearance of lines & wrinkles while supporting collagen production for an even skin tone and texture! I then follow-up using the Essential Facial Moisturizer to hydrate and nourish skin with the optimal balance of Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamins B, E and Aloe Vera. It is free of parabens and fragrances and is the perfect way to end your skin care routine! For a limited time, get 20% off all Alpha Skin Care purchases through 4/15/20 when using code Babble20!

SLEEPING MORE

Something I fell into the habit of last year was working way past bedtime and not getting a full eight hours of sleep. I have found that I am a much better mother, wife, and business owner when I am getting enough sleep at night, so this year I am focusing on my sleep schedule. I started taking CBD this year and have already seen a difference in my overall health and sleep. I take Full Spectrum CBD Softgels and Nighttime Gummies from CBDistilleryTM to help me with stress, anxiety, and overall wellness. CBDistillery utilizes third-party lab tests on each product, so you can feel comfortable knowing exactly what is in each product. They were one of the first CBD companies to provide this information to their consumers! When you take a CBD Isolate, it takes time and consistency for full effects to be felt in order to bring your body back into natural balance. Remember that everybody is different, some may need to adjust the dosage depending on how out of balance they are. Use code: NEWYEARNEWME to get a 20% discount on CBDistilleryTM products!

SUPPORTING NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS

Another one of my goals this year is to give back to my community! I a, so passionate about youth sports since I grew up playing soccer, and hope to have Aimery active in sports as well. I recently took the American Youth Sports Pledge to help The National Endowment for Youth Sports spread the word about their program to help children living in poverty.  There are so many positive benefits of youth sports, but for the nearly 13 million American children living in poverty, access to youth sports is incredibly challenging. The National Endowment for Youth Sports (NEYS) is a nonprofit focused on making sports accessible for all youth in America. They are currently looking to raise more than $100 million for their foundation for youth sports to provide annual and ongoing grants for permanent and accessible youth sports programs to better self-esteem, enhanced creativity, and higher states of psychological well-being to youth nationwide. You can learn more about this organization, here.

TAKING SUPPLEMENTS

Something I’ve started doing this year was adding MCT Oil and MCT Powder to my morning coffee and evening smoothies! Nutiva Organic MCT Oil is made from only organic coconuts to provide you with a boost any time of day. MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) provides clean energy, boosts metabolism, and even enhance mental clarity. Nutiva Organic MCT Powder delivers digestible fatty acids that quickly convert to ketones, giving the brain and muscles fast and sustained energy. It’s a creamy alternative to Nutiva Organic MCT Oil and great for hot coffee! Use code NEWYEARBOXX30 for 30% off MCT products. *

READING MORE BOOKS

Although I don’t normally read books, I have been loving Buddha's Office: The Ancient Art of Waking Up While Working Well by Dan Zigmond from Running Press. I definitely struggle with balancing everyday tasks and work-related duties, it’s hard to keep everything organized. This book gives a simple, digestible guide to incorporating Buddhist wisdom into everyday tasks for increased mindfulness and peace-of-mind! Buddha's Office understands that your commitments are important and helps you find a way of working that is "right" in every sense of the word - being that it’s right for you, right for your health, right for your sanity, and right for the world. This book is for all religions, so you don't have to become Buddhist to apply the teachings in this book to your own life. Buddha actually never used the term “buddhist” anyway, and it’s safe to say that he might not be thrilled with the way people use it today!

FOCUSING ON OVERALL WELLNESS

Focusing on overall wellness is my priority for 2020! I started out this year with a sinus infection, and I really want to put my health and wellness first to limit the amount of times that I’m sick this year. Although sickness is likely to happen, especially during flu season, I like using UpSpring Stomach Settle Drops because they are a natural, fast-acting solution for digestive upset. My favorite part about these nausea relief drops are that they include the top natural remedies, including ginger, spearmint, lemon, and vitamin B6! The Stomach Settle Drops are discreet and individually wrapped with a mild lemon-ginger-honey flavor, making them perfect for everyday errands or travel. They are recommended for ages 14+! These are available for purchase at Target and Walmart on the digestive aisle, and you can also purchase them online here.
