So far this was my most successful week yet. I worked out 4 of 5 days which is a new all time high and next week I'll be going for the full 5! I wanted to take photos last night but got sidetracked and totally forgot. I'm not sure how well you'll be able to see the...
BodyRock Challenge: Week 3 — Adding Bun & Fat Burning Intensity
There is a new warm up video from Zuzana which is a bit long but will become second nature once you've done it a few times. You should always warm up your body and even your mind before you work out. If you don't, you are much more likely to injure yourself. You will...
BodyRock Challenege: Week 2 — Another not so perfect week
I wanted to post this on Friday but, well, I didn't. So instead you get an extra day of my workout randomness. If you missed the workout routine post, go back here to find it. Last Monday I was feeling very winded and wiped out during and after the workout. I was...
BodyRock Challenge: Week 1
I've been doing the BodyRock Beginner's workout for about a week now. If you missed the workout routine post, go back here to find it. Although I'm already yearning to move on to more advanced workouts, I'm going to stick with this one at least one more solid week. I...

A good place to start is always at the beginning. Because I haven't done any real workout out in about a year, I'll be using the BodyRock.tv Beginner Workout series to get things going. This series is easy enough for a beginner of any level and can also be done by...
BodyRock Challenge: Starting a whole new round of punishment
I first heard about Zuzana from BodyRock.tv about a month ago. Stefan showed me one of her workout videos which was being passed around the stock broker network in Frankfurt and I was both awed and inspired by her right then. Check her out in the video below; it's...
Getting things done
Blogging with a toddler at home is not as easy as one may think; especially when the toddler LOVES electronics and thinks that when you open your laptop, she needs to be banging on it. So instead I've been taking the time to declutter a few things and get a lot of...
Cleaning the bathroom with essential oils & common household products
As the holidays grow closer, my mind wanders more and more often to cleaning the house. I've said it before and I'll mention it again: I'm not a fan of cleaning although I do enjoy having a clean house. Part of my problem is simply the time needed to clean. But the...

Thieves’ Oil Recipe
I have been getting more into aromatherapy and herbs again lately. I had an interest in them before Mackenzie was born but when I was pregnant, I couldn't work with most of the oils so those interests were curbed. But after reading The Complete Book of Herbs which has...
