  • I really feel that exercise is so important in my day to day life because it really just

  • makes me feel better and makes me feel energized and so I try my best to schedule it 3-4 times

  • a week.

  • No matter what.

  • You know I have a super busy schedule, but I'm quite known for multi tasking.

  • Quite often I'll do pilates with a face mask on.

  • Even if it's just for twenty minutes, I find that that is so much more worthwhile than

  • doing nothing at all.

  • One of the first things I like to do in the morning is having a grapefruit.

  • I just love the way they smell.

  • Ahh.

  • Smelling it really just even helps with my nausea, because I'm pregnant.

  • This little guy has been one of my best friends.

  • Cut it in half and eat it with a spoon.

  • A little bit of raw sugar on top or coconut sugar.

  • Ahh there you go again.

  • Now if I have a little bit more time and energy, I will cut it up into pieces.

  • It's full of vitamin c and fiber and it's great for you if you're pregnant or if you're not.

  • Mmm.

  • I like to have avocado toast on gluten free bread.

  • I generally put a little bit of ghee.

  • Ghee is a great alternative to butter.

  • And supposedly better for you.

  • Omega fatty acids, vitamin k and your short-chain triglycerides.

  • Avocado, as we know, is also a great source of healthy fat.

  • I love avocado.

  • I eat at least one a day.

  • Good fats are just so healthy for your body.

  • I add a little pink Himalayan sea salt.

  • Sometimes I'll put a little fresh lemon on top as well or a little olive oil if I'm feeling

  • like I want a little bit of extra good fats.

  • Yummy.

  • Mmm.

  • Today I've scheduled kundalini yoga with Onkar.

  • I really love Kundalini yoga.

  • I really see it as a complete mind body spirit exercise.

  • Kundalini yoga is the yoga of awareness.

  • Not only is it asana, which are postures.

  • It's also breath, mantra, meditation and relaxation.

  • So you get all of those things in one.

  • With Kundalini yoga, it sometimes can be so challenging with the repetition.

  • You know your arms get tired and it's like you wouldn't even think that it was a tiring

  • exercise but when you're doing this for a certain number of minutes, it really teaches

  • you that endurance and that stamina that you need to kind of get through, not just everyday

  • challenges, but like especially child birth.

  • It's like it's mind over matter.

  • You know our mind thinks that we can't keep going but you actually can and that's what

  • keeps you going in life.

  • When times get tough, you keep up.

  • It's just good to know that our mind is like the most powerful thing and one of the most

  • powerful tools and if we can, through Kundalini yoga, you can really learn to, I guess take

  • control of the mind.

  • Like through some of the techniques and meditations.

  • For me, it just feels really expansive.

  • Kundalini yoga feels expansive.

  • Today what we're going to do, is we're going to do a couple different postures and we're

  • going to do some cat cow.

  • We're going to do some downward dog.

  • So with downward dog, they say when are you not supposed to do downward dog anymore when

  • you're pregnant?

  • I feel that pre natal yoga, is all about how you feel in the moment, so what you may normally

  • are used to doing, it may not feel right for you to do.

  • This is my little Kora organics noni glow skin food supplement and I'm having this in

  • the middle of the day just to give myself a little extra energy boost.

  • It contains noni, blueberry, acai, pomegranate, green tea, rosehips, chlorella, mangosteen

  • and elderberry flower.

  • What I do, sometimes I have it in a smoothie.

  • Lately I've just been enjoying having it with water.

  • Shake it up.

  • And I've been drinking noni juice since I was thirteen.

  • It's the key to my vitality and energy levels.

  • It really has helped me so much in my life and I really believe in having noni internally

  • and externally and the benefits of doing so.

  • I absolutely love it and it's tasty.

  • Cheers!

  • Now it's time for a little shop.

  • Let me take you to the grocery store.

  • I'm going to take you guys to the local grocery store down the road, which I love going to.

  • Going grocery shopping to me is like so much fun.

  • Ever since I was a little girl, I've loved grocery shopping.

  • Seeing all the fresh produce.

  • I love going to the farmer's market as well.

  • So now I'm just picking some local organic avocados.

  • I like getting local and organic produce, because the quicker it goes from the farm

  • to the table, the more nutrients there is.

  • I love fresh radishes.

  • USDA organic.

  • Cilantro, organic.

  • Some parsley.

  • Oh, golden beets.

  • Oh, smells so good.

  • I love my grapefruit.

  • I love the smell of citrus.

  • I'm really gravitating towards that at the moment.

  • Organic pumpkin seeds here.

  • Almond.

  • Honey almonds.

  • I just love coming to the supermarket.

  • There's always something new to find.

  • Kale chips. Cool ranch. Mmm. Delicious.

  • Because I'm pregnant, I like to snack a lot.

  • Snacking regularly when I'm pregnant helps me feel less nauseous.

  • Little seaweed snacks.

  • I do like a good snack.

  • So I really love goat milk because it's easy to digest.

  • Cows have multiple stomachs and goats only have one and so you can absorb the calcium a lot better.

  • And I really just like the way it tastes.

  • It's delicious.

  • You know I always look for free range chicken as well.

  • You can really taste the difference.

  • So when I'm looking for eggs, I like that it's organic but I like it's free range.

  • Fresh farm eggs.

  • They're raised in the... out in the pasture.

  • Oof, my basket's getting heavy here guys.

  • Chocolate.

  • Ooh, this is a good old favorite.

  • Organic chocolate.

  • A little naughty but nice.

  • I mean, it's organic milk chocolate.

  • It does have sugar though but it is really tasty.

  • It's a little naughty.

  • Nom nom nom.

  • Alright, I think I got all I need.

  • See you later.

  • Ok so this is one of my favorite salads.

  • I like to use spinach and arugula.

  • There are so many more nutrients in spinach and arugula, and I finely chop it.

  • I love radish.

  • Cucumber.

  • Another one of my favorites.

  • Healthy, gives it that nice crunch.

  • Little green beans.

  • Little parsley.

  • I'm just going to mix that up a little before I add the avocado.

  • Fresh lemon.

  • You can make it on the side if you want or put it directly on the salad.

  • Little bit of apple cider vinegar.

  • Little amino acids, which is an alternative to soy sauce.

  • I don't really measure.

  • I just do it to taste.

  • Little olive oil.

  • Pink Himalayan sea salt.

  • Mix that together.

  • Mmm, yeah.

  • Just pour that on your salad.

  • Just mix that around.

  • You add your avocado last.

  • Yummy salad.

  • And now we're going to grill some chicken to put on top of that.

  • Half a chicken breast.

  • Put it in between parchment paper and then just lightly pound it.

  • Careful of your fingers.

  • Voila.

  • Add a little sea salt.

  • Once the pans hot, you then add your ghee.

  • Ooh listen to it sizzle.

  • It's quite thin, so it cooks quickly.

  • You just gotta be careful.

  • Sometimes the ghee, like, spits at you.

  • So you just got to watch out.

  • Cook at your own risk.

  • So I get to eat my lunch now.

  • So as you can see, I just put the salad on top of the chicken.

  • It's really simple, really easy.

  • I made this delicious drink, which is fresh lemon with a little mint and a little ginger with sparkling water.

  • It's really refreshing.

  • Sorry guys, yours is next.

  • I love food.

I really feel that exercise is so important in my day to day life because it really just
