Today was such an awesome day that I’m going to tell you all about it!

I started off my day with two meetings, then my first hot yoga class ever! I got a Groupon for an unlimited month at Hot Yoga Ahwatukee for $39. It normally costs like $140. It was good, just really hot and sweaty-which is to be expected, but something I am definitely going to have to get used to.

That is the studio where classes take place. It’s really nice!

I got an awesome new yoga mat from Lulu that was well worth the cost.

Then, after I got home, I went for a short run (or trot as I’ve been calling it) through the neighborhood. I did 2.5 miles in about 28 minutes, and only had a tiny bit of whining from my hamstring.

After my run, I took the ornaments off my tree.Exciting, I know. Putting up the tree is SO much more fun than taking it down!

After that, I stretched, used my foam roller, and then took a nice warm bath with my new Lush stuff I got yesterday. Lush is amazing if you haven’t been there!

After my bath, I did a little bit of cooking. First, I juiced apples, oranges, carrots and beets that I had in my refrigerator. I also juiced a small chunk of ginger with it to give it a little “zing.”

Then, I decided to make Ari’s Cranberry Apple Chicken Salad to have for lunch this week. It is SO good!

I had a wrap with some of this in it for lunch (late lunch), along with some seaweed salad and fresh juice. SO good, and good FOR you!

Then, I made Mushroom and Rosemary Risotto for Devin and I for dinner. I will be blogging about this recipe very soon. Here’s a sneak peak at what it looked like:

 

 

It turned out to be ridiculously amazing! Devin loved it! I love it, as well! I am definitely going to make it again. I want to make it for my parents when they come out to visit AZ in the spring. Yummo!!

Then, we hung out an watched a movie, and that’s that! 

What did you do today?

Did you workout today?

Do you practice yoga? Where? Do you get a lot of benefit from it?

Happy Trails!
