This newsletter is packed with tips and tricks to help you spring clean your body, mind, and spirit, so you can blossom into your healthiest self.
Recharge Your Energy
Start your week off right! Let's kickstart your energy levels! Here are 3 simple yet powerful strategies:
Prioritize Sleep: Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep each night. Establish a relaxing bedtime routine to wind down and ensure a restful slumber.
Hydration is Key: Our bodies are mostly water, so staying hydrated is crucial for optimal function. Carry a reusable water bottle and sip throughout the day to keep your energy levels up. Pro tip: add electrolytes or a pinch of Celtic salt for enhanced hydration.
Move Your Body: Even moderate exercise can significantly boost your energy. Aim for at least 30 minutes of movement most days of the week. Take a brisk walk outside, try a new fitness class, or dust off your bike for a ride in the spring sunshine!
Weekly Reminder to Declutter Your Diet
Living by these two practices will significantly enhance your health.

Healthy Recipe
Grilled Lemon Herb Mediterranean Chicken Salad
This light and refreshing salad is packed with flavor and nutrients, making it the perfect way to cleanse your system and feel rejuvenated.
Ingredients:
Chicken: I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. If you’re using chicken breasts, you may want to pound them a bit to tenderize them if you want to.
Veggies: You’ll need fresh garlic for the chicken marinade and some lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions and avocados for the salad.
Olives: Kalamata olives are best, but if you don’t have them, just use any regular pitted olives you have.
Lemon juice: For the marinade and for the salad dressing.
Red wine vinegar: For a bit of tanginess.You can use white wine vinegar or even regular vinegar if you want to.
Seasonings: To season, I just used some salt and cracked pepper.
Herbs: I used a mix of fresh and dried herbs for that aroma and freshness. Dried basil and dried oregano, and a bit of fresh parsley.
Olive oil: Ideally extra virgin.
Directions
Prepare the marinade: In a large jug, add the ingredients for the marinade- the minced garlic, herbs, olive oil, lemon juice, seasonings and vinegar. Whisk together and pour half of the marinade in a bowl.
Marinate chicken: Using the bowl, add the chicken and let it rest for about 15-30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator. (the longer the better, it’ll help soak in)
Grill chicken: Heat oil on a grill pan and grill the chicken on medium heat for a few minutes on each side until completely cooked through and slightly charred.
Assemble and serve: Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, slice and then add to the salad bowl with the veggies. Top with the marinade aka dressing, toss and serve!
