Tuesday Tidbits | March ’15

March 10, 2015 by Hillary 10 Comments

Good afternoon/evening, friends! How’s the week treatin’ ya?

It’s Tuesday, so let’s get to a few tidbits. #TuesdayTidbits

1 // I miss the treadmill. My Google-popular 6 HIIT Treadmill Workouts are calling to me.

2 // Last week, my friend Grace came over for our not-frequent-enough homemade dinner dates. The pea pesto and asparagus pizza was totally delish; however, Grace treated us to Dessert Dukkah + Raw Chocolate Pudding and, well, it was without a doubt the best thing I ate all week. Holy vegan yumminess.

3 // Stitch Fix – I am considering ordering my first box. I even created a Pinterest Board for a potential stylist, but I am just a wee bit picky (wink wink).

4 // Even though the blog’s new look debuted last week, I have continued to work behind the scenes with both Deluxe Designs and AcceleratedWP (blog hosting). Seriously, I can’t thank them enough for their continued support.

5 // I made Jen’s super simple Peanut Butter Chia Granola last night (during The Bachelor’s season finale commercial breaks); I couldn’t even wait for it to cool completely before adding it to a bowl of Power O’s.

6 // I’ve registered for IIN’s Immersion Program – a 6-month advanced training program only offered to IIN grads. It starts on March 23rd! Time management skills: come out, come out from wherever you are!

7 // Drop Squats are my new favorite exercise move – thanks to P. When I’m not feeling burpees, these are the next best thing.

Start in a low athletic squat position; drop into a push-up; jump back into the beginning low squat position – repeat. You do not stand up vertically between reps; maintain a low-squat position.

8 // Still wondering what I do as Health Coach? This article sums up my role. Visit my Health Coaching Website to schedule a complimentary consultation!

 

Coaching session tonight and then maybe a run with the roommate (thanks to Daylight Savings)… chat soon!

What exercise moves are you loving lately?

Any Stitch Fix aficionados with tips to share?

Who’s happy with The Bachelor Finale?

“Anxiety is a symptom, not a diagnosis.” - Dr. “Anxiety is a symptom, not a diagnosis.” - Dr. George Papanicolaou

It’s no secret that I suffer from chronic anxiety and panic attacks. Or at least I don’t intend it to be. Because while there can be a lot of shame and embarrassment around both of these, I know I’m not alone in my experiences. While I’ve leaned toward the more anxious side most of life, my bothersome anxiety has steadily increased since my mid-twenties - some periods being worse than others. 

It’s not a complete surprise that my mental health has taken a dip during my first full gloomy Seattle winter — in the height of a pandemic. 

Here are some ways I have been nurturing my body & mind as I work with a team of practitioners to work on understanding the **root causes** of my panic, and to live with more ease. 

» no coffee (not even decaf)

» meditating regularly - I’m using @insighttimer 

» gentle movement

» weekly therapy sessions

» attempting cold showers (this is hard for me!): if you’re interested, you can research how this impacts the nervous system

» working with a naturopathic doctor to focus on gut + hormone health

» trying a new Rx - a decision that took years of consideration

» lastly, opening myself up to vulnerable conversations/sharing my story and my experiences in efforts to reduce any shame and connect with others 

I am not my anxiety.

This rare blue sky day in February is having me da This rare blue sky day in February is having me day dreaming about long, light-filled summer days... they’ll be here soon.

Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴 I was expect Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴

I was expecting all things beer, brats and pretzels in Leavenworth (not really my jam) 🍺🥨🧀, and while there’s plenty of it, I was delighted to find plenty of delicious eats for my “foodie” taste. 

We went to all of these 3 places more than once during our quick stay - highly recommend! 

☕️ @argonautespressobar: Located at one end of Front Street, this adorable coffee bar has delicious espresso drinks, breakfast items, and the best view! 

🥐 @tumwaterbakery: Incredible pastries, avocado toast on artisanal bread that’s a feast for your eyes... and I’m eager to go back and try their wood-fired pizza! 

🍜 @yodelinbroth: Literally some of the best food I’ve had (ever!), and that’s saying a lot. I had the Yodelin soup with housemade wild PNW halibut bone coconut curry broth, udon noodles, heaps of veggies and wild salmon - it was nourishing to my core as we ate it outside in 30 degree weather. I even bought some of the broth to recreate this meal at home, yum!

winter wonderland getaway ✔️ We had snow much winter wonderland getaway ✔️

We had snow much fun exploring the picturesque Bavarian town of Leavenworth, WA for a much-needed mid-week getaway to the mountains. 🏔

We stayed in a cozy little cabin @logecamps right on the Wenatchee River (one day I’ll be back to stay at the stunning @phleavenworth), played in Enchantment Park, took a drive to Lake Wenatchee, and discovered some of the best food downtown (I’m saving my food recs for another post).

Nestled between the snow-capped Cascade Mountains with the river running through town, it’s quite magical in the middle of winter. ❄️ I’m already dreaming of heading back for some summer adventures!
I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in Florida for two years.
