Did your grandma always tell you to eat your beets? Well now you can drink your beets with all natural Beetology! Beets have been shown to be great for your heart, blood pressure and brain. This Babbleboxx features two flavors. Beetology Beet and cherry is only 100 calories and packed with the good stuff. Beetology Beet and veggie gives you a refreshing alternative to getting your veggies in. You can learn more about these delicious organic cold pressed beet juices at beetology.com!

Hydrate

If you love Tree Hut body scrubs you are going to love their new vitamin C whipped body butter. This body butter smells so yummy and is packed with vitamin C and natural shea butter. I highly recommend adding it to your self care routine. Smooth some on after a long bath or apply it to your feet to add some extra moisture. It will keep your skin soft, moisturized, glowing and it helps to promote elasticity. Find a location near you here so you can grab a bottle or two.

Finally, if you love a great cocktail but maybe pregnant, nursing or taking a break from alcohol, check out Monday’s non-alcoholic dry gin. Monday Zero Alcohol offers a flavorful gin blended with juniper, natural botanicals, citrus and spices that gives you the familiar taste of gin minus the alcohol. It’s perfect for entertaining and best of all it has 0 calories, no carbs, no sugar is gluten free and paleo and keto friendly. So whether you are trying to lose weight or simply choose not to indulge in alcohol… Monday has got you covered. Save with CODE: Sharona15

Wellness Wednesday: World Health Day 2021

Filed under: Mom Life · April 8, 2021

Did you know that today is World Health day? Yes we are working on our summer bodies but health is more than just our bodies. We have to take the time to nurture and protect our mental health now more than ever.

I read the other day that 73 % of people experience stress that affects their mental health and 77% of people experience stress that affects their physical health and a big number has been shown with diseases and more of the commercial benefits from the home tests from HealthyMD, Inc. People of color, women, single parents and caretakers usually experience the highest rates of stress. Those numbers are super high. It is up to us to change this pattern.

Ways to Reduce Stress

Exercise daily
Meditation
Practice Gratitude
Take Breaks
Say NO
Watch a funny show
Call an old friend.
Take a bubble bath.
Unplug all technology
Breathe deeply

Today I challenge you to reach out to an old friend or relative that you haven’t spoken to in a while and just say hi, I was thinking about you. You never know how much that can help! And if you are feeling really good I challenge you to make a donation to your local children’s hospital! Whenever I volunteer or donate to my favorite causes I feel an instant sense of gratitude and happiness.

Remember guys that your greatest wealth is your health! If we don’t do things to protect our mental and physical health, we won’t be around to enjoy this beautiful life.

Happy World Health Day!

XO,

Sharonda

October MOM: Marissa Herring

Filed under: Sporty Momma of the Month · October 4, 2013

Marissa Herring is a Miami native who began training as a competitive gymnast at an early age. She gradually transitioned into high school cheerleading, at Our Lady Of Lourdes Academy and became an NCA All-American cheerleader and a National Partner Stunt Champion. In 1992, she continued her collegiate cheerleading at Florida State University (FSU), where she was a member of the FSU varsity squad, that travel, cheered and competed at national levels. In 2001, Marissa married Kim Herring, NFL Superbowl XXXV champion. In 2007, after having her 2nd child, Marissa trained for and competed at The Women’s Tri-Fitness World Challenge. In 2013, she returned and won 1st place in her age group and 2nd overall out of 133 athletes. As a certified personal trainer, she motivates women to stay healthy and fit. Now, a mother of 3 children, Marissa continues to train and empower women to be their very best.

Q. What do you love the most about being a mom of 3?

The activities. There is never a dull moment. They are constantly keeping me on my toes and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Q. Who inspired you the most growing up?

My mom. She has always been a strong independent woman. Hustling around the globe. Taking us with her so we could experience different cultures. She always encouraged me to go for what I wanted and made sure I was on the right path. I had to learn some very important lessons on the way, and she was there to keep me focused.

Q. What is Garage Mama Fitness?

Garage Mama Fitness is a training facility in Orlando, FL for families to feel motivated, energized and bring out their inner “Rock-Star”. My training philosophy has always been to have a non-competitive environment where people feel safe and can focus on strengthening themselves inside so their bodies can transform on the outside. It’s about challenging your self every session to bring the “A-game” mentality and get results. We never have the same workout, and I believe in combining different training styles to keep your body and mind engaged during training.

Q. Congratulations on a successful year of G-Mama Fitness and Trinity Sports. What is it like working with your hubby?

It has been interesting. I am the social butterfly of the operation, and he is the number cruncher. It’s a nice balance. We have found a way to work and yet balance our home life, by rotating our training sessions. We do see each other all day, but we are busy building the business. He handles his side of Trinity Sports Performance and I deal with G-Mama Fitness. We are passionate about our children seeing us love each other and work together as a team.

Q. Last year you competed in The Tri-Fitness Challenge, how was it competing after all of these years?

It was awesome. I won 1st place in my age group (36yr-39yr) and I won 2nd overall out of 133 women athletes. I caught the fitness bug in 2007 after my second child, and after my 3rd baby put 60lbs on me, I didn’t think I had time to get back into the competitive fitness world. A new business, 3 kids (2 in competitive gymnastics), a husband and time for mommy, made it seem impossible to compete again. My clients, staff and family supported me throughout the training. It was great to take 8 clients with me to the Tri-Fitness challenge. We are getting ready for next year!

Q. What makes those G-Muffins so yummy? Are they coming to a store near us anytime soon?

Good carbs are always yummy. I am a foodie and I love my carbs, so good old fashioned oatmeal is the base of the muffin. I figured out the right combination that taste great and still stay moist. Guiltless Guava came from my love for pastelitos. It is in high demand every time I bake. I’m hoping to figure out how to maintain the freshness of the muffin without adding the preservatives that store bought products have. It’s a work in progress.

Q. What advice do you have for busy mommas that want to stay fit but may not have a lot of time?

Be selfish. You need to find 20-30 minutes of “mommy time” to maintain your health and fitness. If you start your day with good endorphins, things will run a bit smoother because you have the right mindset. Make yourself a priority and do not feel guilty about it. Your family will survive 30-60 minutes without you. If you can’t workout one day, at least plan and pack your meals for the day. You do it for your kids, so do it for yourself. It makes a huge difference in your energy levels throughout the day. Mommy snack time is crucial to keeping our mood swings from acting up. When I’m hangry (hungry+angry), patience goes out the window. Keep your hormones happy and keep your metabolism burning by eating proper portions and training safely and effectively. Some days I only train for 20 minutes because my health and sanity (lol) is a priority for me and my family.
