April 10, 2020 by maddie

Hi guys! Happy Friday!

I hope everyone is having a great day so far. I am very excited to share with y’all today 10 essentials for working at home! During these crazy times we are living it is easy to give up and say I am just going to watch netflix all day… even though you should be working. I hope these things help motivate and encourage you! These items are what I use to keep me focused, motivated, and happy! Please comment if you have any must haves for working at home!

Laptop

This is by far my favorite laptop. I have used so many laptops and this one beats it by far. Its the Macbook Air! It has the fastest speed and all the tools I need to accomplish the work! ONLY $999 !!!

Laptop case

If you already have a laptop, but you need a case for it this is the one! And if you think you don’t need a case… you do! I broke my last laptop by letting one little drop of water get into the key board… dont make the same mistake! Check out these cases! ONLY $20!!

Also this bag I put my laptop in is waterproof and so cute and cheap! ONLY $18!!

Airpods

Okay I am going to be honest… I wasnt a huge fan of airpods when they first came out… I thought they were pointless. BUT when I tried out my sisters airpods I fell in love. They are noise cancelling, so easy to charge, and so easy to find because they are white! I use them for work 24/7! Only $139!! They are $20 OFF right now!!!

Blue light glasses

These glasses are SO essential for me especially since we are on the computer or phones all the time. I used to get such bad headaches when I was staring at the screen for too long and these glasses completely fixed it! Not only did they cure my headaches they are SO cute!! ONLY $18 for 2 pack!!!

Cozy slippers

These slippers are a MUST for working at home. Not only are they cute, but they are sooo comfy! I wear them every single day and they are still in pretty good shape! If you are looking for some home shoes… here they are! 🙂 ONLY $22

Mug!!!

Here are a couple of my favorite mugs:

Notepad

Having a To-Do list is essential when you are working at home. Why? Because if you dont have a list, you will forget, get sidetracked, slack off etc. It has been said that the most successful people have a list every single day and they make sure they are completing every task! I dont know one person that is successful and just “winged it”, but having a notepad is very important to your success!

Grateful journal

This may not seem like an essential, but in today’s world it is. Having a grateful journal has changed my life. It has helped me to be positive and hopeful on the most dreadful days. And I know it can change your days as well! Just try it here :)

Cute/Cozy Clothing

Okay lets be honest… it would be nice to be in our pjs all day while we work… however its actually scientifically proven if you get up and get yourself dressed you will be more productive! So here are a couple of cute, cozy shirts and pants! All under $20!!!!

My Top 7 Amazon Products for Healthy Lifestyle

May 9, 2019 by maddie

These are my top 7 amazon products to having and maintaining a healthy and happy lifestyle! I have tried SO many products over the years and here are my top 7. These products will help you live a happier and healthier lifestyle for God! Just remember that God is the only thing we need in this life and everything else is just a blessing!

Garden of Life Organic protein powder-

This is the BEST protein powder! I have tried SOO many protein powders and this by far beats every single one! I use this protein powder almost every day in my oatmeal, protein shake, smoothie, pancake/waffle. Why organic?

https://amzn.to/2VTn6NO

Garden of Life Pre-workout-

BEST pre-workout ever.

I have tried SOO many pre-workouts and most of the products I have tried used to give me the shakes and my heart would beat almost uncontrollably and I felt very unnatural. Although when I came along the garden of life pre-workout I fell in LOVE with it! It has NOTHING artificial in it and its only 50 calories!

Hydro Jug Pink

I have tried many hydro jugs and this one is the BEST. It doesn’t leak and it holds a gallon which is what I drink in a day so it’s perfect for making sure I am drinking enough water!

Star-west greens powder

Greens powder is a very interesting and controversial thing because many people believe that we can just eat a salad and we dont need actual green vitamins. However, the vitamin content and mineral content has decreased by 40% in the past 30 years. If you wanted to get the same vitamin C that your grandma had you would have to eat 8 oranges compared to your grandmas 1 orange. I believe this product is very helpful and getting proper nutrition and vitamins to nourish your body.

Garden of life Probiotics

This product is one of my favorites because we do not get enough probiotics in our food in order to digest food. I have struggled with digestion most of my life and this product changed everything! This product is essential for a healthy gut and sliming down your stomach and helping digest your food better!

Multi Collagen Powder

Want to get long hair? Do to grow your nails? Want a healthy gut? Would you like to have clear/soft skin? Well, then this product is for you! Our bodies are made up of collagen therrefore we NEED collagen in order to thrive! If you are looking for a healthy you, I highly recommend getting this collagen! I have tried many collagens and this by far is the BEST!

Just so you guys know, I am with the amazon affiliate program. So I do make a tiny commission off of this, but it’s not about the money. It’s about showing y’all good products for a healthier and happier lifestyle for God!

My Two-Day Fast Experience

December 18, 2018 by maddie

I have been intermittent fasting for about 2 months off and on (not every single day) but for the most part I would fast 12-18 hours. I recommend y’all reading how I do IF before reading this. Fasting has tons of benefits, if you are curious check out my intermittent fasting blog. Fasting has not only changed my physicality, but also my mentality as well.

The main benefit I wanted from it was fat loss and appetite/craving control. I set goals before I started fasting that way I knew what I wanted from the experience/diet plan. I didn’t need to lose a lot of weight, but I did want to shed the fat around my muscles to become leaner and I knew fasting would definitely help. I trained myself for about a week for this fast, so the week before I fasted I fasted for 16-20 hours only.

Honestly, I was very hesitant to do a 2-day fast. I really did not know what to except other than I knew it would be worth it. Let me just tell you it was 200% worth it. Yes I was very hungry at times and yes I did debate breaking the fast to eat, yes I was tempted with others around me eating, yes I worked while I fasted, and NO I did NOT workout while fasting. If I were to workout while fasting, I definitely would’ve passed out. Fasting is a very sacred thing and should be fully considered before diving into the deep-end. In addition, I fasted to gain spiritual knowledge and clarity. I knew fasting would help me gain this clarity because in the bible people fasted for a reason to hear and listen to God. Jesus, Son of God fasted for 40 days, so I knew I could handle 2 days.

How I did it

I prayed a lot during this fast and God gave me strength to endure it
I looked to God for His spiritual food
I drank a ton of water
I fasted with water, black coffee, tea, and bone broth with MCT oil .
I had 3 cups of bone broth both days (Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner)
- In the 1 cup of bone broth I had a teaspoon of MCT oil.
I tried my hardest not to think about food
I got my sleep both nights so I wouldn’t be tired
I had someone do it with me so we could hold each other accountable

I hope this blog post helped. If y’all have any questions,please fill free to contact me!

Also, I would love to answer or here y’alls experiences as well 🙂
