You never regret doing a workout
but you always regret it when you don’t. Seriously, if you’ve been putting off working out, just do it! I procrastinated doing a nice, long run for so long that when I finally did it today, I wondered why I put it off in the first place!

Happy Valentines Day, lovely followers :)
Have I told you guys about my sweetheart Kale?
But seriously, whether or not you have a significant other, Valentines Day should be about love. Not necessarily romantic love, but also love for your family, friends and most importantly love for yourself.
Have a super day! xoxo

The search is over.
Oh my goodness. I just realised (courtesy of wikipedia) that whilst frantically searching for kale in stores that I’ve been eating it all along - it just goes by the name tuscan cabbage here.
This. Changes. Everything.

7 Health Benefits of Meditation →
vegansparkles:
I especially liked this part:
“The simple difference between those who meditate and those who do not, is that for a meditative mind the thought occurs but is witnessed, while for an ordinary mind, the thought occurs and is the boss. So in both minds, an upsetting thought can occur, but for those who meditate it is just another thought, which is seen as such and is allowed to...

One year ago I started a blog.
I called it The Skinny One with a burning desire to be thin. My mind was consumed by calories and pounds and my life revolved around food and exercise.
It evolved into Get Fit, Get Skinny and slowly I began to shift my focus to health. I stopped seeing calories and pounds and started seeing nourishment and strength.
It became Eat Clean, Run Dirty, helping me become as healthy, happy and peaceful...

Turning off anon.
Too many weird anonymous questions. I’ve kept anon on ever since I started this blog, but I did so because I was lucky that people weren’t abusing that option, so I’ll have to turn it off for a while.
Don’t be scared to send any messages - I’ll answer privately if you’d like, and I don’t bite! :)

Overcomplicating Healthy Eating
Sometimes it’s easy to get caught up in all these micro details about clean and healthy eating.
That’s kind of how I feel right now. All I need is to breathe, take a step back and remember what’s really important: eating a variety wholesome, unprocessed and yummy food. Taking it too far is not part of a healthy mix.

Anonymous asked: Okay, so I have a good amount of time in the morning. Is there maybe a quick (20 or less minutes) workout I could do? Mainly core. (: Thank you, my love.

It's never too late!
This morning, I slept through my alarm and sat on the couch watching tv. I wrote the day off as one of those lazy days, but around lunchtime I decided to turn things around. The rest of the day was awesome - I finished heaps of work and went for a run!
What I learnt and my main message is that just because you’ve had a bad morning, week or even month, it’s never too late to make a...
