cruise detox

My brother (the Captain above) is getting married in mid-October so we had his bachelor party on a cruise last week. Needless to say, I need to detox. Plus, I’m turning 35 on the 12th so a “fresh start” is a great way to kick it off.

So I’m bringing back My21DayX and detoxing for 21 days (maybe longer) in the month of October. But this detox is going to be a little different. I think its something everyone could benefit from and at least try for the next 21 days. Read and see what you could incorporate for the next 21 days.

Imagine waking to complete silence. There isn’t a mad rush, any distractions, and there is an absence of stress. Everything is calm.

You get out of bed relaxed and you perform a set of rituals that get you into a flow state – a state that puts your mind and body in complete control of your entire day. Maybe you enjoy your cup of coffee or maybe you name five things you’re thankful for in life.

The morning can be a time you enjoy – and it’s possible for anyone. I’m going to show you how to create a launch sequence for each morning that decreases stress and makes you calmly effective and in control for the rest of the day.

Parents Are Not Teachers

Parents are not teachers

Many people say becoming a father (or mother) is scary. We have the fear that we will fail. We’re going to be in charge of a life after all.

When you have your first child, everything is new.

A child doesn’t come with an owner’s manual. We’re not taught how to be a parent in school. There are hundreds of books and opinions on the topic, which can make it even more confusing.

But, we have spent our entire life watching “parenting” take place. We’ve seen what we should and shouldn’t do (thankfully, I had amazing parents who I hope to become someday).

The Critical Thing Dr.Oz Left Out of His Butter Coffee Recipe (aka Bulletproof Coffee)

by

butter in coffee If you found my post on google, welcome! I hope this answers all your questions on Bulletproof Coffee, Intermittent Fasting and putting butter in your coffee. If not, leave a comment and I’ll get you an answer right away. If you want to learn more about Intermittent Fasting, check out my full Intermittent Fasting Guide.

In an episode of Dr. Oz, he explained how to make “rocket fuel” coffee in which he recommended replacing sugar in coffee with butter. Dr. Oz claimed the butter causes the caffeine to last longer in your body, which is true.

But it actually does much more than that.

You have probably heard about butter in coffee somewhere else if it wasn’t Dr. Oz. It’s becoming very popular. But butter in coffee is nothing new. Ethiopians are known to mix spiced butter into their coffee. A staple drink for Tibetans is yak butter vigorously churned into their hot tea to prevent the fat and water from separating. This is regarded as an essential source of energy and helps them flourish in their harsh, frigid climate. [Read more…]

Did you know that during the Middle Ages, it was believed that all illnesses, from plague and smallpox to epilepsy and gout, stemmed from an overabundance of blood? The typical treatment was bloodletting, or the nicking of veins or arteries to cause blood flow.

Strangely, we still practice something similar to bloodletting today – blood donations.
