Defense Soap, a natural based brand that uses eucalyptus and peppermint rather than harsh chemicals that can harm your skin. These soaps and lotions kill the nasties from training.

For optimal health we need to go to a deeper level that encompasses so much more than just counting calories or macros. Have a peek of my latest article to read more our best tool for overall health and why it is the most overlooked.
We have become so disconnected because of apps and calorie counters. What about how we feel? Doesn’t that count for something? What many of us don’t realize is that listening to our bodies is the best tool of all to tell us if we are doing or eating something that agrees with us or not. Our bodies will tell us if we are overtrained, because if we are tuned in, there is a difference to deep fatigue or just laziness. Our bodies will tell us if that food we eat works for us or not, regardless of the macro content according to the apps. Are we bloated, lethargic or energetic and full of zeal? Start by tuning in and listening. I mean, really listening, there are sooooo many signs!! And then make the changes if something doesn’t feel right. Your body is the best tool for your health and wellness, it’s time to start listening and to trust it.
I don’t use apps or measure my food. I know what is what. I have applied this knowledge and figured out what works best for me in order to thrive, because I have listened to my body.

Set your intention rather than going through life like a leaf in the breeze and never knowing where you’ll end up. If you live your life that way things end up ‘happening TO you’ rather than ‘happening FOR you. Which mindset do you think creates the victim mentality? If you carve your own path, it requires taking complete 100% responsibility for everything in your life. For some, this might be a hard pill to swallow. But the beauty of it is that when you know you are 100% responsible for everything, you also have the power to change it.
For those who set the intention to carve your own path in life, here is an article I wrote for Breaking Muscle Magazine about putting those intentions into action. It is a step by step guide to help you reach your goals. I hope you find this helpful.
