Mindful Living For The Modern Mom
I want to show you two of the candles I made in celebration of these colder days! One turned out just as I wanted and the other not so much... Even though I didn't get the color just right I still want to share the process with you so you can hopefully avoid the same mistake.
I think my favorite thing about Tik Tok is the creative recipes I see people try. This was one of the first ones I ever saw after joining Tik Tok and man was it excellent! Not to mention easy!
Here in the Northern Hemisphere we are welcoming Fall right now in September. All things must die before they can be reborn. It's the same for us spiritually and for self-improvement and just basic maintenance of our personal wellbeing. The Fall equinox is the perfect time for this internal analysis and preparation to begin.
This lasagna is so good your meat eating friends will have no idea that it is vegetarian! My family devoured it! This is a new family favorite for sure! It's packed full of cheese, veggies and flavor!
I have been thinking about starting a YouTube channel for years... But I have always been too nervous and self-conscious to actually do it. One day I decided to video myself trying a tik tok recipe and it was so much fun! It flipped a switch in me and the motivation to actually start one took hold!
The most surprising thing I have learned from Tik Tok is hands down the recipes. This is the new and best way to make instant Ramen!
September is Self-Improvement month and I think it is the perfect time for it! If you're a parent, the kids are back in school and the craziness of summer is finally over. It's also early enough that the obligations that come with the holiday season haven't started yet. It gives us a perfect opportunity to reflect and take time to focus on ourselves.
Finish out the summer strong with this beautiful cooked veggie salad.
Planning out everything you want to do and everything that needs to get done months in advance will elevate so much of the stress that comes with the holidays. Nothing gets over looked, no one gets forgotten and you get to spend more time during the holidays actually enjoying the moment.
Ok Tik Tok is taking over so much more of my time than I am proud to admit. But at least I'm learning things from it. This new creative way to cook ravioli is a new family favorite! Seriously give this a try, it's so easy!
