Fitness Series | Neck Pain Yoga and a Light Jog

-
I started this morning out with searching some yoga routines to relieve neck pain because the right side of my neck was so sore when I woke up. I'm not sure if I had just twisted it some odd way yesterday or just slept wrong, but it's still quite sore even right now at night while I'm writing this.

I followed this "Easy Neck & Back Pain Stretches & Exercises" by PsycheTruth routine. Since it was only 10 minutes long, I also did a different PsycheTruth yoga routine "Neck & Should Pain Relief Exercised & Yoga Stretches Jen Hilman". To be honest, I enjoyed the second video much more. She was more interactive with her camera audience and just made it enjoyable (maybe that was just because it was a longer video so she had more time to fill up but who knows).

Later in the day I took advantage of the warmer Minnesota weather we've been having and did a light 15 minute jog around Buffalo Lake. I haven't jogged in such a long time; it was nice to feel my breath  against the air again.


Never forget to love and make time for yourself ♡

14 Day Hair Challenge by Sarah Tran || Review

This year was not what anyone expected with the pandemic happening, but it has allowed us to spend a lot of time at home which gives us extra time to do things we wouldn't normally do.  Earlier this year I tried the "no-shampoo" method. At first it was great, but then after 2 weeks, my head was going insane! I eventually came across this 14 Day Hair Challenge by Sarah Tran. I don't remember exactly which platform I saw it on, probably Instagram, but immediately I thought I should try it. Her hair was beautifully long, and she's Asian! It also helped me decide, since the last shampoo/conditioner I had bought were both more expensive than the challenge, and it was advertised that you'd be making a shampoo at-home, which I've always wanted to try. During the "no-poo" days, I did do some apple cider vinegar and egg rinses, but nothing that left my hair feeling super great.  The 14 Day Hair Challenge was quite interesting, and not entirely what I expe...

Review | Online shops - Zaful and Goodmanity

Those online store ads on Facebook and Instagram actually got me! Below is my quick review on a couple of my recent online store purchases from Zaful and Goodmanity. Zaful  The handful of items purchased. This shirt seems like pretty alright quality. The label also states that it's sweatshop free, which is awesome. ($14.25) This sweater is quite cute! The color and fit are both very nice. The packaging was also sleek in the Zaful ziplock bag. ($16.99). I'm not one to spend much on clothes, so $16.99 was kind of expensive to me, but this sweater is unique and worth it. You definitely get what you paid for. When I put on the first necklace (gold without the bead - $2.56), one of the metal circles was too loose and it fell apart. Although it was an easy fix with putting the metal back into the circle, it's definitely not something that should be necessary to do when you buy an item. The other two necklaces have not broken (yet). Overall though, the necklaces are...

Materials of 2018 | May

Summer months fly by too quick! Now that I'm looking back at April, I did NOT do good at all for May. Definitely spent too much on materials...and accumulated too many items. Update on April items (Note this is written in July) Meat raffle haul:  I have used the stick ons for cards.  I sometimes remember to take B12.  I am currently still using the pop socket.  I've been still using the top coat when I paint my nails.  Goodwill haul:  The purple dress' strap broke in our dryer! So I just superglued it as a quick resolution...  I love the T-shirt dress and actually just wore it today for church lol I have yet to use the picnic basket or try the weaving stuff.  I've worn the leather jacket a couple times (I actually totally forgot I even got it, but hey, it's summer)  The bag I've worn a couple time.  I have yet to wear the hawaiian shirt or the black shirt. After the wash, the black shirt seems to fit only. Asian stor...
