Summer is my favorite time of the year.  I love taking walks at night when the air is still warm, the crickets are singing and the scent of blooming flowers lingers in the breeze.  And the summer produce!!  I love all of the fruits and veggies that come into season this time of year.  Summer is a time of abundance, in more ways than one.

Memorial Day marks the beginning of summer for most of us here in the US.  School days are coming to an end, temperatures are rising, and plans for travel, vacation and weekend getaways are afoot.  It's common for schedules to get a little crazy during these long days and short nights.  As a result, it can be more challenging to plan ahead, make healthy decisions, and do the things we know we need to be doing to stay healthy, fit and fabulous.   It's the little things that, over time, make the biggest difference.

Packing healthy snacks, drinking lots of water and scheduling exercise into your day are all ways you can stay "on track" with your health goals.  Check out my ideas on healthy snacking below.  As things heat up outside, it's nice to have some go-to cool down treats that won't derail your health.  Read my monthly recommendation for some great frozen snack ideas, under "Alicia Recommends".

And if you're looking for some new ways to transform the abundance of produce filling your shopping basket, check out my class on June 9th, "Sensational Summer Raw Foods".  I'll be demonstrating and sampling creative raw food recipes that are delicious, energizing and guilt-free.  You're going to LOVE what I have to share!

Enjoy these long days of abundance!  Radiant possibilities abound!

"Wow! I feel amazing, I lost weight (9 pounds!), I slept the best I have ever slept, and I now know that I can do anything I set my mind to.  Overcoming the mental part of the cleanse was the biggest challenge.  Now I feel amazing to be able to say I did something for my health that most people can't do in a lifetime.  And not only did I do it, but it will be a part of my lifestyle in the future.

 

Alicia, you are an amazing person and so motivating!  Thank you for everything you have taught me. You have given me more than good health, you have made me myself again."

There's no denying that everyone, at one time or another, has had a snack attack. Opinions on snacking differ. Some feel that snacking is bad and that eating between meals leads to weight gain. Others believe that eating many small meals and snacks throughout the day is healthy for maintaining energy levels and optimal weight. If there were one way of snacking that was right for everyone, we would all be doing it!  Continue Reading -->
