Week-End Update

Is it just me or do the short work weeks always feel like the longest? This has been a busy one to say the least.

This Week-End Update includes a few highlights from my week and what I’m looking forward to this weekend!


Today is the last day of the Thieves Cleaner promotion from Young Living. I wrote all about it in this post last week. If you have been thinking about taking your wellness in a new direction or you are ready to commit to cleaner products in your home then I highly recommend getting yourself a Premium Starter Kit(PSK) during this promotion. As I’ve educated myself on the ingredients in skin care, beauty products and household cleaners it’s become even more important to me to make the shift to natural non-toxic products. Beyond that I’ve found countless ways to incorporate essential oils into my daily routine that offer me support my physical and emotional health. The PSK was a game changer for me in my wellness routine and I’ve loved building out this toolkit every month.


This beautiful tree in our front yard blooms in the blink of an eye. Even though it’s short and sweet it always makes me smile. I’m also smiling because I made it to the gym twice this week in addition to teaching 7 classes at the studio and taking 2 yoga classes. Sometimes when I have a big week of teaching I don’t make time for my own workouts and I always feel 100% better when I do. You also might have seen over on my Instagram stories that I’m making time for more meditation in my life. I will find a way to share more about this at some point but for now let’s just say, whoa, I’m feeling very in touch with my feelings!

Current obsession, this headband! I met the most beautiful human last weekend, she makes and sells these beautiful headbands. I actually got two of them and have been wearing them non-stop while I decide which additional ones I need. Check out Sage and Soul Headbands for yourself to see these beautiful and incredibly soft headbands. If all that wasn’t reason enough to get a few for yourself, Emma the founder of Sage and Soul, donates a portion of each sale to woman and children fighting cancer. I mean, come on, go get yourself some headbands!

PLUS, use code “Barreista20” for a discount!


Finally, what I’m most excited about is the weekend! The last Friday of every month we do a happy hour after my 5 PM Barre class and on Saturday I’m heading to my favorite morning yoga class at Healium Hot Yoga. There are a few new vegan restaurants that were recommended to me and I think we are going to try one of those this weekend too, so look for a review in the next week or two. Then on Sunday we are going to see the play Kiss Me Kate. Full weekend with some fun and hopefully some downtime. Next week I’m back to the travel grind. Stay tuned to see where I’m headed and what I’m to.
