A day in the life vlog showing healthy habits including blood work, grocery haul, gym workout, meal prep, and juicing
A comprehensive vlog showing a full day of healthy living habits including morning blood work, a gym workout with cardio and Pilates, grocery shopping at Whole Foods, and extensive meal prep with juicing for the week ahead.
Visit Lab Corp or use Lab Corp on Demand to get blood work done, particularly hormone panels, to understand your body's current state before starting a health reset.
The process takes about 5 minutes. Check in on your phone and wait in your car until texted.
Go to a grocery store like Whole Foods and stock up on lean proteins (chicken breast, 93% lean ground beef), fresh vegetables (spinach, celery, cucumbers, apples), and healthy pantry items (black beans, chickpeas, gluten-free tortilla chips).
Have something light before exercising, like oatmeal with fruit, honey, and cinnamon to fuel your workout without feeling sluggish.
Avoid working out on an empty stomach if you get hungry easily.
Start with 30 minutes on the stairmaster, then do a slow mile on the treadmill. Use your inhaler if needed, especially during cold winter months when asthma can flare up.
Ease back into exercise gradually if you've taken time off. Listen to your body and don't push too hard initially.
Follow along with a free Pilates YouTube video (like Pilates by Raven) for 15-20 minutes of core work. Set up your TV and yoga mat in the living room.
Take immune-supporting supplements including vitamin C, B complex, zinc, iron, vitamin D3, and probiotics to support overall health, especially during flu season.
Consider adding bloating pills if it's your time of the month.
Use a cold press juicer to combine wheat grass, baby spinach, celery, cucumbers, and apples. The apples make it naturally sweet without needing pineapple.
Prep enough for 4 bottles. Store in fridge and consume within 2-3 days for freshness.
Juice fresh ginger, orange, and lemon. Add water, cayenne pepper, black pepper, turmeric, and honey for an immune-boosting daily shot.
Prepare several meals for the week: tuna salad with mayo, Greek yogurt, red onion, celery, and parsley; and a Mediterranean chickpea salad with black beans, cucumber, tomato, bell pepper, and mozzarella pearls dressed with olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, and Dijon.
Grill beef with teriyaki, honey, Japanese barbecue sauce, and sesame oil, then steam broccoli. Make chicken with taco seasoning for taco bowls with cilantro rice.
Store all components separately so you can assemble fresh bowls throughout the week.
Use red light therapy mask, make herbal tea, write in a wellness journal about your day (meals, sleep, water intake, activity), and read before bed to complete your healthy day.
A wellness journal helps track habits and reflect on daily gratitude.
