7.5 Friday Faves – The Fitnessista


Hi friends! How are you? Happy Friday to ya! What’s going on this weekend? We had the BEST time in Spain and are back in the states after 10 amazing days in one of our new favorite places. I’m working on some blog post recaps to share, but in the meantime, here are some pics!

 

It’s time for the weekly Friday Faves party! This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, so please shout out something you’re loving in the comments section below.

6.28 Friday Faves

Read, watch, listen:

I read Nora Goes Off Script last year and loved it, so of course I had to start this.

What are your hopes for this summer?

How your environment affects cognitive health.

Fitness, health, and good eats:

Melatonin. I was on the fence about melatonin for years, but with more knowledge, I’ve changed my mind. I think it can have benefits, and can absolutely be used as a tool for better sleep. I ordered this to try at home to see if it might help me sleep on the long overnight flight – usually I’m too anxious to sleep – and it was everything. It helped me doze off and get a great plane catnap on the way to Spain.

We had zero transition to Spain time – it’s the first time EVER we could jump in the first day and not feel totally jet-lagged.

Not medical advice – just sharing something that worked well for me – and of course, always talk to a doctor before taking new supplements. The link to the liquid melatonin is here and my discount code is FITNESSISTA10.

Got this olive oil to bring back with our souvenirs. It’s been rated #1 in the world for many years; you can actually find it on Amazon. I’ll probably order more there when we run out.

Small Somavedic. I’ve been a huge fan of our regular-sized Somavedic – I use it to potentially help mitigate EMFs and for water structuring – and was pumped when they sent a smaller one that I can use in my car or office. It’s so gorgeous!! You can read more about the science behind Somavedic here and use my code FITNESSISTA for a discount. They also have a 30-day return policy, so you can try it for a while and see if you like it.

Fashion + beauty + random:

Obsessed with this Farm Rio dress. It’s true to size and on sale!

I should have bought more of this hand cream at the Farmacia. SO silky and thick, with a light floral scent, and it was like 4 euros.

These tanning drops! I use these all year to turn regular body lotion into tanning lotion.

Hope you have a happy weekend and I’ll see ya soon!

xoxo
