This is Simon - looking at me upside-down. Doesnβt he look so menacing?? I just had to capture this shot of my favourite, cuddly, photogenic cat looking so devilish with his teeth showing π Itβs ridiculous how much I love him and he certainly lets me know gently when heβs had enough love. Hope everyone is enjoying this very wet day βοΈπ

Homemade Matcha tea lattes are another favourite of mine and great substitute for coffee! I always make mine with almond milk which makes it vegan friendly too π Hereβs how I make it. Put a teaspoon of matcha powder in a cup. Add a few teaspoons of hot water to dissolve the powder and mix it up until there are no lumps. I use a nespresso frother to steam the milk and then add it to the mixture and voila you are in Matcha heaven! π Here are some of the great benefits of Matcha Tea: π High in Antioxidants π May help protect your liver π Boosts brain function π May help prevent cancer π May promote heart health π Helps with weight loss Who loves Matcha as much as I do? π₯°π΅

Let go and watch yourself grow. Fear of change keeps you stuck in your current situation. Itβs easy to settle in ones comfort zone, sometimes without even realizing it. Living a life with depth and vibrance involves a never giving up on learning and trying new things, taking chances and believing that you are capable and deserving of more. Take every day as a new opportunity to be better than the day before πͺπΌππ
This post of my favouriteβs is dedicated to the beautiful people that I was so blessed to have in my life, that are now Angels. Always in my heart and Iβm forever changed by your love and the wisdom that it has taught me. This down-time has gifted me some time to process the pain of losing my loved ones whom I miss so very much. Most recently my sweet father 7 months ago today. Sending everyone some extra love if youβre missing someone dear to you π€ππ€
Travelling to exotic places with my Love is another thing I love and miss especially during these times. πΊ I would love to be there right now. If it was safe to travel, where would you go?? #postadayformay #thingsilove #maui #travelling #exoticdestinations #hawaii #love #entrepreneurlife #aloha #hulagirl #mahalo #grateful #blessed
This pic represents how I feel every time I see animals π₯°Itβs like βHey, thereβs my friend Iβll catch up with you later.β π Iβd be happy just going around hugging all the animals that I come across. I love animals so much and think that being a vet is such a noble profession. Hats off to all the people that take care of animals, rescue them, take care of them and treat them well. Each one is so precious and itβs amazing how they just sneak into our hearts. π #postadayformay #myfavouritethings #animalsarefamily #love #hugs #nature #adoptdontshop #rescue
Down to the wire but here it is!! Nature sounds are so heavenly and soothing. Hearing the song of Mother Nature on my morning runs are something I love so much and am so grateful for. Who needs music when you can listen to these energizing notes πΆβΊοΈ Sleep well everyone π΄
Missing the faces of my beautiful students π who are all at the top of #myalltimeoffaves in this World. I feel so blessed everyday that I get to do what I love - training athletes but I also LOVE this talented, spirited, and goofy bunch of humans!!! Cβmon just looking at these sweet faces makes life a whole lot better, right?!?! Miss you all so much β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ Here are some of my βkidsβ πππ
I love art!! In school I always loved art class - sketching, painting, pottery and crafts. My more recent expression of creativity has been in making cards celebrating the special people in my life. Itβs a fun way to add a personal touch to gifts and busting out the coloured markers, scissors, construction paper and stickers always get my creativity flowing π¨β€οΈπ§‘ππππππ₯° #expressyourself #colouryourworldhappy #postadayformay #myfavouritethings #art #cardmaking #love #celebration #handmade #cardsbydesign #spreadthecheer #expression #creativity #fun
This resonates so much with me because itβs something that Iβm deeply aligned with. We always have room for more kindness, thoughtfulness and compassion towards each other. This time of quarantine has truly demonstrated that we are all capable of it as weβve all been trying to help each other as much as we can by checking in on loved ones, sending good thoughts or care packages. I hope this will continue as we eventually return to our normal hustle and bustle. Kindness is always in fashion and you never know how much of an impact it can make on someone! As for hugs, if you know me well I love giving them out π€ and will be taking rain checks for when this part of our lives is all over. #kindnessandhugsarekey
Day 3 of my #postadayformay favourite is Exercise!!! Not so surprising since my passion for sports and fitness led to getting my degree in Kinesiology and pursuing my career training athletes. Growing up I played soccer, basketball, volleyball, and track and field events. As an adult I learned how to skate and won a gold medal last year at Adult Nationals π₯ #energycreatesenergy and #exerciseismedicine Itβs never too late to start a sport or try a new form of exercise. Exercise has so many benefits and is a great outlet for releasing stress and for feeling good πͺπΌ Have you done your workout today? #justmoveitβοΈ
The TV show Friends is another one of my all time favourites! Still makes me laugh even though Iβve seen it over a thousand times...to the point where I can actually quote many of the scenes π This clip is especially funny because Monica & Chandler are like us but with the roles reversed. If anyone knows Ryan and I well, youβll see this and get a kick out of it ππ€£ I cant wait till they make the reunion episode β€οΈ Day 2 of my favourite things complete! Hope everyone enjoyed the sunshine today βοΈ
Happy May Everyone! πΈ May has always been one of my favourite months, with Spring in the midst and seeing the changes happening in nature, itβs easy to feel a sense of renewed energy and inspiration. So Iβve decided to try and do a βPost a Day for Mayβ of some of my favourite things. For this post you can find a blend of some of my faves: being in nature, near the lake, with paths for running/walking...and of course Toronto, a place that is Home π₯°β₯οΈ Enjoy your day xoxoxo
