JUMPN’ JUMPN’ into that sweetness of the ROARING 20s & ready for this new year! ✨ • New Years Eve is usually a mix of emotions for me, but as I shift my perspective to view it as an opportunity, an energy, a time to change, update, recharge, and better myself, the more I look forward to this point in the year. I don’t think there is anything wrong with having New Years resolutions or goals, because some say “you shouldn’t have to wait to one point in the year to change or set intentions”, which I get and I do think you should have time each week or month to reflect and redirect as needed. BUT this holiday is a great reminder and time to reflect and grow and set those intentions and realign your goals. • So CHEERS to you all 🥂 ! Wishing you the best and blessings in the New Year! Here is to change, failure, triumph, growth, & refining YOU to be the best version of yourself ! The #roaring20s are HERE! LET’S GET IT ! #ARayofSunshine #🌞 #bodymindandspirit #selflove #findyourlight #mystrengthismybeauty #strongnotskinny #embraceyourcurve #curvygirlhealthygirl #bodyimagepositivity #longleanandsexy #swooshlife #sweatlife #sweetlife #sweatthedistrict #dcfit 📸: @vi_liketheletter (at Watermelon House) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6wRDc-hfXP/?igshid=1nc5dfs6jm7y

Sometimes in the W A V E S of change, we find our true direction. • Just over here patiently awaiting the return to the #sweatlife. I’m healing 🌀 I’m recharging ⚡️. I’ve been sidelined with a back injury & it has really affected me mentally and physically these past couple of weeks. BUT with my ‘everything happens for a reason’ mindset, I have given myself grace by understanding this injury happened to teach me something. It is there to remind me that I’m going to have to dig so deep to come back, but that I’m going to come back stronger and with a new perspective of how I need to continue to treat my body like a temple. It’s the only one I have and I have to continue to invest and love my body, while also balancing and continuing to recognize & work on my mind and spirit - it’s a trinity and all must be aligned to fully serve my purpose. #ARayofSunshine #🌞 #bodymindandspirit #selflove #findyourlight #mystrengthismybeauty #strongnotskinny #embraceyourcurve #curvygirlhealthygirl #bodyimagepositivity #longleanandsexy #swooshlife #sweatlife #sweetlife #sweatthedistrict #dcfit #wavewall #thegreatwave #georgetowndc 📸: @vi_liketheletter (at O St) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5EQvb8hojS/?igshid=1xd4nxlwgonld

WE DON’T GROW WHEN THINGS ARE EASY ~ WE GROW WHEN WE TAKE ON THE CHALLENGE. Life’s been kicking my ass lately and I’m doing the best I can to take it ONE STEP AT A TIME • Life is hard and every day you have to invest in you, because at the end of the day that is who you are left with - yourself. *cue Queen B 🐝 Me, Myself, & I* Life is also beautiful & you must recognize the blessings in good health, friends, family or whatever it may be to make you feel appreciative to take another breath each morning when you wake up. In the end, I can see the bigger picture, but man, when you’re in the trenches, it’s hard to get that perspective and have that gratitude in your ♥️. Just remember you’re growing with each day, with each challenge. And that’s real.⚡️😤#glasshalffull #ARayofSunshine #fitspo #keeplookingforward #itsamindset #femininestrength #mystrengthismybeauty #strongnotskinny #embraceyourcurve #curveygirlhealthygirl #longleanandsexy #swooshlife #sweatlife #sweetlife #sweatthedistrict #dcfit (at Georgetown) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4VpfCYBV6h/?igshid=1c21rt7bmhs44

You are STRONG. You are KIND. You are IMPORTANT • L I F T as you R I S E • <Empowered Women Empower Women> It takes grace, wisdom, discernment, compassion, and great strength, not just physical but mental, to be who we are and give what we give. We need one another to recognize and value those characteristics we hold - so don’t pull someone down because you’re threatened or jealous. Don’t compare yourself, but instead look at another woman and recognize the strength and gifts she holds and then see the beauty in the difference. • Shift your perspective to appreciate the difference, that’s all it takes. Be so confident within yourself and invest in YOU, so that we can recognize our own strengths and what we bring to the table instead of what we don’t have and bring someone down because they have “it”. It’s simple, as you rise, you lift others alike and different than you to support and encourage growth of one another. ✨⚡️ #itsamindset #femininestrength #mystrenthismybeauty #strongnotskinny #curvygirlhealthygirl #embraceyourself #bodymindsoul https://www.instagram.com/p/B3c-oHMhyG3c9srHcVhrUtYLZWXiZujhpn1yBY0/?igshid=1dtypexggq9m3

CRYSTAL 🔹 CLEAR 🔹 VISION • Life is funny in that it truly is a balancing act. You want to go whole heartedly after what you want and desire, but you also are humbled when you need to surrender to Divine will. Your path might not be an easy straight shot, but the vision for yourself should always be in clear sight with acceptance and understanding of balancing the highs and lows, the twists and turns to get to where you want to be. A little give...a little let go... • *NEW POST is up on CurvyGirlHealthyGirl: arayael-eloha.tumblr.com/ - link in bio #ARayofSunshine #🌞 #bodymindandspirit #selflove #findyourlight #mystrengthismybeauty #strongnotskinny #embraceyourcurve #curvygirlhealthygirl #bodyimagepositivity #longleanandsexy #swooshlife #sweatlife #sweetlife #sweatthedistrict #dcfit (at Washington, District of Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzJwWwyB3nA/?igshid=irqid00o9bk1

Clear Vision for the Future - Finding Beauty in the Journey

Imperfection. We are not perfect nor do I believe anyone could ever achieve perfection in their lifetime. If you know someone, hit me up, because I would LOVE to meet them to have a conversation about what that is like. Life is hard. I think most of us have figured that out by now, but it is also amazing. My life is amazing! I have something to be grateful for Every. Single. Day.

Life is here to shape you - to shape your individual path, to teach your soul the lessons it needs to learn to evolve to the next phase. WE are all here to serve a purpose, some are fortunate to quickly find out what their purpose is, some are lucky to find their soulmate to grow and navigate life with, and most of us are still trying to figure it all out, but one thing I know, and I have to remind myself, is that everyone has something they are working on. We are not perfect and even though the perfect life or perfect scenario can be portrayed, you really have no idea what that person is going through or has gone through to get where they are. So I say this to myself, and I say it to you, acknowledge your flaws, really try and understand what does limit you, because your weaknesses can be turned into strengths, they do not always have to inhibit you. They are there to be lessons for us, to strengthen us, to balance us, to HUMBLE us.

Easier said than done right? Yes, I know, trust me I KNOW! I have to constantly remind myself, especially when overwhelmed, what my gifts are, why I am here, what makes me happy, and not to let the flaws lead. A lot to think about right? We must be gentle with ourselves when making small changes or when accepting our reality. You do not have to be content with where you are if you don’t like it, but you need to embrace that and then build to make change. BE GENTLE. SHOW COMPASSION to others and to yourself. It is a lesson for all of us, so try that out. If you have the opportunity to reflect on yourself and what you striving for, look at your strengths, but also your flaws. Make a game plan. Make the changes. Be gentle and GROW! 

In my last post I spoke to my non-traditional views when it comes to healthcare and my take on what wellness looks like to me, well I wanted to talk about another practice that believe in and incorporate into my life.

Acupuncture/Cupping

This is a trend/wellness practice I can get behind. I found the perfect place right in DC called DC Acupuncture and the wonderful Joselo runs this business in providing these options, which usually are fairly expensive, to all. It is pay what you can sliding scale $20-50 per treatment, with a one time membership fee. This place makes me so happy and acupuncture and cupping has helped me so much in my workouts and even with life anxiety and stress. Acupuncture has amazing benefits and there is so much more I need to learn, so every time I go in to see my main man Joselo, I ask questions, seek his opinion on certain matters that might be going on in my body. I always go in open minded. He is open, loving, gentle, and wise. Such an amazing soul here in the District. If you want to try it and are in the area go book your appointment now!! Some questions I get when I show that I go on my IG are:

1. Does it hurt? → No, the cupping can be uncomfortable, but it does not hurt. It does leave some sexy marks after though, so keep that in mind ladies if you have a backless dress or some event. Marks usually last 4-7 days. Make you feel like the Riz!

2. What if I am scared of needles? What do those feel like? → The needles used are extremely thin, so the actual insert of them is not painful. There are various lengths and depending on how deep the acupuncturist places them into your body, where they place the needles combined with your pain tolerance, it can be mostly discomforting, but no extreme pain at all! And trust me I freak out over a finger prick. I used to have a meltdown as a child. 

Acupuncture is based on the thought of energy flow through the body through meridians which are the channels that hold your Qi. With the correct positioning of the needles, your meridians can be opened to help restore your energy and heal what is in need. Our bodies are vessels and can be very sensitive to energy, so when you feel ‘off’ or anxious or in pain, chances are you are experiencing a blockage. Acupuncture helps open that flow! Try it out next time or look into it to incorporate into your wellness routine!

WORK OUT

For this post’s featured workout, I wanted to show you a fun circuit to do after a nice run or light cardio day. You can even do this workout as the main event, but I usually use it as a booster on top of a cardio day. Try and do 12-20 reps of each movement for 3 rounds.

EATS

TWO FOR ONE! It is trial and error when it comes to meal prep and what works and what doesn’t for you. I HATE wasting food and so cooking the same thing for 5 days straight does not work for me. Plus I like freshness! Veggies usually get soggy after day 2, so I learned to cook food for two days and then switch it up. Here is a good rotation for lunch this week M-TH and then treat yo self on Friday!!!!!

Meal One Idea: Sautéed Spinach, Ground Turkey, and Cauliflower Gnocchi

-super easy, sauté spinach in ghee and adobo seasoning and trader joes is my best friend - if you do not have one near you, then you can do some couscous or cauliflower rice instead

Meal Two Idea: Mini Tacos, Chimichurri Rice, Peppers and Onions with cheese and tomatillo salsa

Remember, find beauty in your imperfections. The path is not always going to be straight and clear cut, but you’ll be able to navigate your ups and downs with clear vision if you embrace it all!

Be well my loves - eat, sweat, DANCE, be HAPPY!

In Peace,

A

50% masterpiece + 50% work in progress = 100% ME !! Always trying to better myself and connect with what my body and soul is needing. Don’t be afraid to look in the mirror to really SEE YOURSELF - see the great beauty and light you hold. Work on YOU and turn weaknesses into strengths. We are all human. We all have them. Acknowledge them and be gentle with yourself when you start to make changes. • *NEW POST is up on CurvyGirlHealthyGirl: arayael-eloha.tumblr.com/ * I’m talking about WELLNESS and what that looks like to me & I share my non traditional approach in that.

Stay Clocked in Workin’ on my WELLNESS

Kale chips. CBD Oil. Avocado Toast. Sweet potato fries. Fresh pressed juice. Organic vegetables and fruits. Whole Foods grocery shopping. All go on that list we create to live a ‘healthier’ life. And all of these things are great, healthy options and additions to our wellness practices, but I want to share my view on wellness, health, alternative medicine, and about continuing my path in learning the best ways to care for my body.

Some would say I am ‘non traditional’ in the sense of how I view the medical field and the traditional ways of today’s medicinal practices. We all have our opinions and most people go with the grain, because that is how society is set up, to be easy and accessible, but sometimes that is not always the best answer - at least not for me. I go against the grain and I can hear my baby brother now, future doctor by the way, rolling his eyes at his crazy, boho sister. Now hear me out…I really do think the way I was brought into this world and how I was raised has had an impact on my views today. My mother had an ALL NATURAL BIRTH, which was cutting edge at the time (way to go Mamacita), and without going into too much detail, this just affirms that my mom is one of the STRONGEST and SELFLESS women I know. Google all natural births – or don’t, but I think that this really imprinted me. I was not vaccinated at birth – I am fairly certain the only shot I had growing up was a tetanus shot, and that was because I would run around butt naked in the garden when we lived outside of Nashville, TN in the country with cows and rusty fences and nails lingering around.

Let’s just take a moment to look at that muscle toning as a kid – damn I wish I still had that. Ha! Now back to it – I am not vaccinated and growing up, going to schools and college, my mother had to go to great lengths to advocate for us, her children, as to why we will not receive shots. And believe it or not, I WAS A VERY HEALTHY kid and I still am as a young adult. I rarely get sick, I workout regularly, watch what I put into my body and supplement with nutrients and vitamins as needed. I am not perfect in any way nor am I hard core all natural, all organic, but when I am able to, I try and make healthy decisions and go with my intuition.

Now that I am a young adult I had this moment where wow, my health is in my hands, not my mother’s and something happened to me recently with a doctor. I was going in for my routine gyno appointment and the doctor asked if I had a certain shot. I told him no and that I am not vaccinated. PAUSE – the look on his face was indescribable, he immediately began questioning me and pushing this vaccine onto me. I have to admit at first, I almost gave in because he was making such a valid case as to why this vaccine is important and that I NEED TO HAVE IT and that I am in control of my body, not my mother. But then, my intuition kicked in and I had to remain calm and stick to my upbringing – why all of a sudden do I need THIS SHOT? I have been healthy all my life and yes I know and understand I am at risk for other diseases, but guess what, so is everyone else, and if it happens then it happens, I am not going to inject myself with something that I do not know what is in it and just blindly accept what a doctor tells me. Now sure, we need to be able to trust our doctor and if he was telling me my life was at risk or in danger, I would reconsider, but this was like a routine vaccine. The way I think of it, and I hope you laugh is, if cavewomen did not have it, why do I need it? Sure, we have evolved since then, but that is my approach and I am sticking to it.

This incident really opened my eyes to me being a young adult RESPONSIBLE for my body. I no longer live at home, I don’t have a coach telling me what I can or cannot do, it is me, myself and I.

So I was determined to find health care practitioners that value and honor my view on medicine and my preference to go au natural as much as possible. I luckily found GW Integrative Medicine Center, which is close to where I work and the doctors and staff there are so accommodating and I feel safe and not pressured to make certain decisions. It has made a huge difference and I feel better knowing I have them there should I ever need something. Again, I am a pretty healthy lady.

I will share more about my maintenance wellness aka acupuncture and cupping and eating for my body type according to my Dosha - next CurvyGirl.HealthyGirl post.

WORKOUT

I am all about being a work in progress and I LOVE trying new things, but these are my GO - TO moves that I wanted to share so you could incorporate some into your workout and routine. Try them out!

Heart Rate Spike: BURPEE - these are great! Legendary! They will for sure add some intensity to any workout.

Booty Builder: Glute Bridge

Legs: Curtsy Squat with Thruster

Arm/Back: Push Up with Rotation (THESE ARE HARD - I need to get better at push ups. These are for sure my biggest weakness)

Abs: PLANK - I used several variations to switch it up

Cardio: Versa Climber - I AM OBSESSED with this cardio workout. I put in my headphones usually and just groove. Really great piece of equipment, if you have access to one, don’t be intimidated just hop on!!!

SMOOTHIE QUEEN - gotta get back on my grind and I feel that smoothies help me do that and I pack them full of good stuff. I use a simple vanilla protein powder from Trader Joes. MCT Oil, which helps in appetite suppressing and believe it or not, I have very low cholesterol, like REALLY low, so my doc at GW Integrative medicine suggested I include more healthy saturated fats, and MCT oil does that. I also put the ProVitalethine in my drink as a natural way to detox - it is a great supplement! And then I use coconut water and fruit or sometimes I use almond milk. My favorite smoothie is almond butter, almond milk, vanilla protein, and banana and voila! 

Be well! Try new things! Enjoy a smoothie! Will be back soon!

In Peace,

A

(This post is in no way meant to discredit the medical field, but to just share in my viewpoint and another perspective, one that is very different. Professionals in the medical field are brilliant and there is a lot of good out there, I just however, am led to believe in something different. Thank you to all the doctors and nurses out there saving lives and making a difference and thank you to mental health professional, nutritionists, holistic doctors, and other wellness professionals.)

Change in Season - Change in Attitude

Springtime has me SPRUNG!

I AM BACCCKKKKKK!!! And so ready to get after it since I hibernated ALL WINTER LONG.

First and foremost, thank you to everyone who has reached out via social media, text, or even in person to tell me how much they have enjoyed this blog and if the posts inspired you in some way. That was the whole point and main goal in starting this blog - making a difference, even if it is just to one person. This creative outlet helps me stay accountable and in turn, I hope it helps inspire and ignite others to workout and MOVE and live healthy lifestyles, whatever that may look like to them. I know I have not posted as frequently as I had originally planned to, but you know, life! Life takes over and mine has been a whirlwind.

Let’s backtrack real quick: I got a new job back in August, which has been amazing – I AM SO HAPPY and absolutely love what I am doing. I then started to explore the group fitness world and began coaching at a boutique fitness studio here in DC, so from working 9-5 then going straight to training, it was a lot, PLUS I was studying for my ACE exam, PLUS keeping up with all my friends and family…I had a lot on my plate.

Well, things slowed down over winter. Things did not quite workout at the gym I was coaching at and I failed my ACE test. Yep, that’s right failed it. BIG X! I now remember what it was like to fail something – ha! Haven’t done that since college! The score left me speechless. I felt defeated and like a failure. I started questioning my ability to become a group fitness coach, because of a piece of paper that prevented me from doing something that quite honestly, I was kinda good at and I LOVED IT! So naturally, like the Cancer I am, I crawled into my shell and just had to hang in my emotions for a bit. I gave up working out, in the sense that I was not really driven anymore in my workouts, like I lost my reason why I liked to sweat. It was December and all I wanted was to eat Christmas cookies and mac & cheese and drink red wine, so I indulged and just wanted a break. I had been going REALLY hard for months, so it just felt like the right thing to do at the time.

Well slowly but surely, I fell out of shape and those winter layers of love kept me nice and warm. And I knew it was going to happen, but it was a B*%$# getting back into the gym and eating right, HOWEVER, I do not regret it, because I know I needed to listen to my body and at the time I really needed a break and that is okay, I came to PEACE with that.

So let’s fast forward to the present: I have been back on my grind, with workouts and trying new things. I have taken control in finding holistic doctors and wellness routines and had this incredible experience up at an ayurvedic retreat in Boone, NC and I will make a post about that soon, so all in all, I have been coming back into balance. It has been a slow process, but I am getting my groove back.

I feel like a new person when I can start to feel the warmth again – I for sure get seasonal depression, so now I am back at it and motivated to share in this healthy, fit, active lifestyle I live. DC really has changed me and my outlook on ‘fit’. Yes, I probably drink a tad bit more – HAPPY HOURS are the best, but I also am probably the healthiest I have ever been and most in tune to what my body is needing and craving. I want to nurture it, take care of it, love it!

Cheers to us who take each day to better ourselves. Let us recognize the small things, even when the big things might not go our way, there is ALWAYS something to be grateful for. Live each day with gratitude in your heart, accept the lessons, ride the highs, and acknowledge the lows - you won’t always be there, but you’ll always be in for the RIDE! Remember BALANCE my friends. 

Looking forward to reigniting my energy and passion in this journey and blogging about something that is near and dear to me. 

In peace,

A

FOOD INSPO

SO I collaborated with my wonderful roomie and wanted to feature her!! She is starting a food blog and I tasted this dish she made last week and I said I HAVE TO meal prep this for next week. I feel like I eat so healthy and clean when she cooks; she has a completely different outlook on how to pair ingredients together and I can confidently say I have never tried anything of hers that I did not like, so I am featuring a vegetarian dish this week, but you can easily make it meat friendly if you crave that chicken or steak.

I do not have a name for the dish, but I made GOCHUJANG RED SAUCE! AND it is the BOMB!!

So we can call this GOCHUJANG Veggies & Tofu

Steam the veggies below:

Green Beans

Leek

Eggplant

Pan fry the tofu with Ghee and Adobo Seasoning (you can pan fry meat here if you would prefer)

RED SAUCE - it was mainly done by taste

Korean Red Chili Pepper Paste - huge glop

Soy sauce - Tablespoon

Sesame Oil - Tablespoon

Sugar or orange marmalade - Tablespoon

Rice Vinegar - Dash

Ginger - Dash

Add it all together and BAM you have an AMAZING Veggie healthy meal!!!

The HAPPIEST of hours! • Daylight savings has me feeling some type of way. I’m ready to shed winter and welcome the warmth of spring! I’m ready to get back on my fitness game and work on me! • The majority of my self love does revolve around working out, because for so much of my life I’ve been ashamed of this body.

The physical is important, but the deepening of the SOUL is also a priority for me.
