I’m a big fan of Mourning Routines! I believe that the way we start our day sets us for a great day or not such a great day. A big part of my morning routine is to alkalize the body which for me it means to rehydrate and refill the system with plenty of water, vitamins, and minerals that are used during sleeping. When we sleep we can lose up to 1 lt of water per night. We spend 7-8 hours (hopefully) ...

My Learnings of 2 years of Low-Carb and Ketogenic Diet For the last 2 years, I have been eating mainly a Low-Carb diet. During this time I have also reduced to a minimum the number of Carbs which at points made it a Ketogenic Diet.

They can easily gravitate to the more starchy comforting foods like pasta, pizza, bread, rice, and so on. If your child is one of those, don’t worry! Ours was too. I believe that every kid can thrive, living a balanced and healthy life, if provided the right nutrition. This means to have balanced meals (protein, carbohydrates, and fats), little to no processed sugar (candies, ...

You have heard the saying; “You don’t know what you have until you lose it!” That was exactly my experience with sleep. I always have been an excellent sleeper. My friends used to make fun of me saying that I could sleep on bare rocks or even standing in buses (no joke). Until we had kids! It’s not a surprise that when you have babies your sleep gets compromised. There might be also other reasons that compromise your sleep quality like mental and ...

Alcohol and weed were my daily medication for the pain I was feeling inside. ...
