How I Overcome the Feeling of Being Stuck

Celebrated 100 days {백일} with our little flower girl 🌸☀️🎀

Baek-il is a Korean tradition celebrating the first 100 days of a baby’s life — a milestone that was historically significant due to high infant mortality rates

As someone who didn’t grow up feeling super connected to my Korean heritage, it feels really special to be able to pass on a little piece of cultural traditions to our baby and be able to celebrate with her halmoni (grandma) and family

It was such a precious day and I love that we’ll have these photos & videos to look back on with her 💕

PART 3: EMBRACE YOUR CREATIVITY

Flexing your creativity helps #romanticizelife by encouraging mindfulness, appreciation for the beauty around you, and ultimately fostering a sense of joy and wonder 🎨

B started making homemade bread and I am taking full advantage to start painting the loaves again! I love how they turn out and think they’ll make such pretty additions for dinners with friends this Spring season 🌷 (watch till the end to see it fully baked)

All you need is liquid whitener edible food color as the base and mix in Wilton’s gel food coloring for the different colors

Of course, there are so many ways to get creative that don’t involve painting. You can:

✨ learn photography
✨ cook new recipes
✨ plant a garden
✨ play an instrument
✨ take dance lessons
✨ learn embroidery
✨ color, sketch or sculpt

What are some ways you want to embrace your creativity?

It’s officially the first day of #Spring and I am so ready for all the beauty this season brings ☀️🌼

Since the #SpringEquinox is a time for new beginnings and transformation, here are five ways to give yourself a fresh start for the months ahead:

✨Reset your digital space✨
This is a great time to swap out your wallpaper, delete unused apps, clear the clutter on your desktop and clean up your inbox

✨Refresh your closet✨
It’s time to start putting away your winter clothing and bring your spring styles forward! Donate gently used clothes that no longer bring you joy, take your winter coats to get dry cleaned, and maybe even host a clothing swap with friends!

✨Do the thing you’ve been putting off✨
Reset your life a bit by making those appointments you’ve been waiting on and decluttering/deep cleaning spaces in your home that have been a bit neglected

✨Switch up your daily routines✨
Shake things up by trying new recipes, workouts, skincare and other elements of your daily rituals to reflect what your mind and body need during this new season

✨Try something new✨
This is a chance to get reinspired after your winter hibernation by trying a new hobby, planting a garden, reading a book that’s been on your list, hosting a party (or picnic!) with friends or going somewhere new in your city

What are some ways you’re resetting for the new season? 🪴

Taking care of yourself is the first step towards

Taking care of yourself is the first step towards being able to care for others — so this is your sign to do one thing that nourishes you every morning 🫶🏼

✨ Open the windows and let fresh air in
✨ Put your phone on do not disturb for the first hour of the morning
✨ Splash your face with ice cold water
✨ Savor your hot coffee before it gets cold
✨ Write down 3 things that you’re grateful for
✨ Get 10 minutes of direct morning sunlight
✨ Put on an outfit that makes you feel good
✨ Take a few min to do your skincare & makeup
✨ Drink a large glass of water

ADD WHIMSY TO YOUR WORKSPACE

If you have a home office this is your sign to refresh your space, clear the clutter and bring a little joy to your desk. I’m a big fan of #dopaminedecor and when I surround myself with things that spark joy, I find that I genuinely want to spend time at my desk.

A few ideas to get you started:
✨ light a candle you love
✨ add positive affirmation cards
✨ hang up prints or art (this NYC watercolor is from @kellyannetangstudio)
✨ swap plain pens for patterned ones
✨ hang a disco ball in the window
✨ add something that reminds you of a beautiful memory (like this taxi cab which was a name card holder at our wedding)
✨ decorate with real plants 🪴
✨ bonus if you can put a walking pad under your desk

You can find the Mindful Morning Affirmations poster in my digital shop and all the other office things are on my LTK 🎀

~ PS: Lily has the best seat in the office imo ~

Here’s everything I ate today at 3 months postpa

Here’s everything I ate today at 3 months postpartum #noosapartner 🥑🍓🫐🍌

BREAKFAST:
my favorite green smoothie made with banana, frozen pineapple, spinach, vanilla protein powder, almond milk and the secret ingredient — @noosayoghurt! I used their vanilla bean flavor and it adds such a nice sweetness to the smoothie and makes it extra creamy.

Noosa yoghurt is available nationally and you can use their store locator to find it near you! They have lots of delicious flavors to choose from like blueberry, peach and strawberry rhubarb.

LUNCH:
Bagged salad mixes have come in handy since we’re limited with time over here 😅This one was a kale ceasar mix that I jazzed up with tomato, cucumber, blueberries, avocado and rotisserie chicken. Always gotta have it with a side of bread (B made this homemade focaccia and it’s so good!)!

SWEET TREAT
I love an afternoon sweet treat and today was cold brew with cookie dough cold foam and a chocolate chip pb cookie

DINNER:
This 30 min meal featured miso glazed salmon baked in the oven with a side of soba noodle & veggies (mushrooms, carrots and snap peas). It’s super flavorful and very easy to make!

Let me know if you’d like to see more of these meal inspo posts in the future 💕

✨5 Simple Ways To Add Movement To Your Day✨ I

✨5 Simple Ways To Add Movement To Your Day✨

It can be easy to fall into the mindset that the only way to be active is to squeeze in a full hour workout, but there are so many ways to add more movement into your day!

Remember that all the little bursts of movement do add up ☺️

👟 Take short movement breaks throughout the day to stretch, take a quick walk, or do a very short 10 min workout at home

👟 Choose the more active option like taking the stairs, parking a little further away from the store, or walking/biking to your local coffee shop instead of driving

👟 Stack little exercises while doing other things around the house. You can take a stroll on a walking pad or do squats while watching tv or walk around the house while on the phone

👟 Get organized and commit by adding movement to your calendar! You can even set reminders on your phone

👟 Make it fun! Set up a weekly walking date with a friend, book a class at your favorite studio, join an exercise challenge or sign up for a race, and make a good playlist to pump you up
