and while you’re at it - soak your OATS!
If you don’t have time or accessibility to cooking oats for your lunch or snack during the work or school day, you could opt to eat them dry….or not. The only time I like this is when they’re rolled in PB. But some die-hards really do eat their oats that way.
Instead, soak ‘em. Use a 1/2-3/4 C of organic, unsweetened almond milk to one serving of oats (rolled) in a container and go! By the time you’re ready to eat, they’ll be soft and yummy. You can even do it the night before.
I also add dried cranberries or other things that’ll soften up.
COMING UP: soaking your NUTS. Fo’ real.

Yoga tip: In “up dog” position, make sure that your shoulders are NOT coming forward over your wrists, that you are NOT squeezing your bum, and that your ankles are “active” which means not sickling in & you’re really concentrating not just on pushing through the tops of your feet to lift your legs up, but your keeping your ankles straight.
Kinda like THIS
Whoa! Who said yoga was easy?!?!?
