Kids Meal. Doesn't look pretty, but it's an easy meal that will last several days. #greenbeans from the garden that's fresh . But everything else are left overs from last night. #roastedbrusselsprouts with bacon grease and salt. #slowcooker #tacomeat looks light because there's hidden #onions #carrots #celery #brocoli stalks.

I'm setting attainable goals by breaking overall goals into bite size "To Dos". For example, How do I decrease stress? I'm going to do 3 things that will help me decrease stress. How don't eat clean? I've purged my pantry and filled my refrigerator with yummy and fresh foods. I've also ordered some @petespaleo for emergency meals. Lastly, with exercise, my approach covers mobility and strength, and the endurance is slowly building.

Today's focus was posture. We used movement to relax the shoulders, stimulate the core, and strengthen our hips for healthy base is support. Quick look at my class today. #MondayRestoreClass #MoveWithSandra #functionalfitness #solanabeach #encinitas #healthyneck #healthyback #improveposture #dynamicflexibilty (at The Movement Lab)

Getting a little movement before boarding the plane. Would not recommend in crowded airport. 😜#morningwakeupcall #3Dlocomotion #MoveAnywhere Reminder: #MondayRestoreClass will be cancelled April 20th. Celebrating 90th birthday for my father in law! #exercise #travel

This warm San Diego weather has been great for our garden. Trying to add variety in our greens! #chard#kale#beetgreens #NeedVarietyForHealth

We are all at different levels and working towards different goals. It's important to scale your exercises to your level. Working at an appropriate level not only prevents injury, but actually speeds up your progress of getting stronger and reaching your goals. Today, I did a mobility progression of lunges, squats, and push-ups with #hulahoops #taylorswift #slipperygrass and #kids. If you are interested in understanding exercise progressions, stop by my class 10AM #MondayRestoreClass @the_movement_lab

Working out is only one piece of the puzzle towards health and fitness. We also have to eat anti-inflammatory and healing foods that our body can use for fuel. We need clean fuel that balances our hormones for a healthy body and brain. I'm attempting to eat these canned oysters for lunch. They are rich in vitamins and minerals including selenium, iron, Omega-3 fatty acids, zinc, calcium, and vitamin C. #oysters #healingfoods #nutrientdenselunch (at Nutrient Dense Lunch)

Discover different ways to squat for different functional purposes. Here I show you #WideSquatd vs #NarrowSquats, and squats with right foot forward, then left foot forward. The variability of movement not only prevents injury, but maximizes muscle activation. If you like to learn more, join me tomorrow, Monday at 10am. @the_movement_lab (at Restorative Movement)

Do you ever feel overwhelmed and end up waisting time? It happens to me, too frequently! But recently, I found a solution. And it's really easy. Almost too easy, that even I can do it! If you are interested. Shoot me an email through my Facebook Page 3D Living with Sandra VanGilder, and I'll send you the 3 easy step PDF that I've been using! #justdoit #organizehappy #efficiency #BeKindToYourself Just a hint, I started my day cleaning my kitchen, basically decluttering my space to declutter my brain. I'm making an investment and empowering myself to have an awesome day!

For my 6 year old's class. They have been learning about different cultures from parents. It was my turn today to talk about #China and #ChineseNewYear. It was during lunch so I made #lomein for the first time. Boil salted water to cook #GF rice noodles. Drain & set aside. Heat #pastured lard. Throw in gloves of garlic and chunks of peeled ginger. Allow both the garlic and ginger to brown and infuse the oil with its flavors. Because it was for kids, I didn't mince the garlic and ginger. I just wanted a mild flavor of the two. Therefore, pick out the browned garlic and ginger pieces and throw away. Toss in precut bag of shredded broccoli and carrots. Sauté for a couple minutes. Then add pre-shredded cabbage. (I forgot to add my snow peas, so I had to do an extra step. But you can add the snow peas after the cabbage). Sprinkle some salt and add butter. Add pre-cooked noodles. Sprinkle sesame oil and #coconutaminos to taste. Toss noodles to mix with #vegetables. And serve. #traderjoes #didruntoday

Oranges are lucky because of their round shape, symbolizing harmony and peace. Oranges are also sweet, symbolizing a sweet year. Happy Chinese New Year!!! #ChineseNewYear #oranges
