It’s A Pinterest Party!

September 12, 2013 By Heather Blackmon

.

Are you ready for another Pin It Party?! You might remember that earlier this year, Lindsay came up this idea to share some great posts in one place. Since it’s all about Pinterest, the goal is to feature things that have those great “pinnable” images to make it easy for others to pin & share. Since I use Pinterest all the time, I am excited to participate again this month!

By the way, are you following me on Pinterest? If not, CLICK HERE.

So let’s get straight to the fun with 5 Pinnable Posts!

 

1.  The first pescatarian recipe that I shared on Better With Veggies was my Lowcountry Shrimp Boil! I love this recipe and it was a big step for me after months of internal debate (I tend to overthink things) about branching out from plant-based recipes in this space. The meal was a great place to start and is a perfect meal even as we move closer to Fall!

2.  Did you know I’m currently training for a fitness competition? If you’re a regular reader, you might be tired of hearing me talk about it! But if you’re new or have ever thought about training for one yourself, this post covers all the things that go into competing & my approach to training.

3. How about a little fun & adventure in my recap of Whitewater Rafting here in Colorado?

4. I like goals, it’s what keep me inspired & motivated. Especially BIG goals that scare the heck out of me (which is right where this fitness competition training falls!), because it gets me moving! In this post, I share my thoughts on what a big goal looks like, when fear is helpful, and when big goals can actually hurt you. I’d love to hear your thoughts!

5. Have you heard of #MMAZ? If not, you’ll want to check out Meatless Mondays from A-Z this coming Monday! I host this weekly link-up where you are challenged to make a dish containing the ingredient of the week. For those who like to CREATE, the first week highlights original meatless recipes made with the featured ingredient. For those who like to COOK, the second week highlights recipes you cooked with the ingredients (preferably one of the recipes shared in week one). Everyone is welcome to participate and I hope you’ll join us next week for Kabocha Squash!

Hi! I’m Heather, a yoga & wellness teacher based in Colorado... Read More…

What scares me is probably different than what scares you.

I am admittedly a timid mountain biker - but getting better every day.

I'm afraid to face plant, but still working on crow pose in yoga.

⬇️ What is one thing that scares you & how are you working on it?

Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga clothes?

For at least part of the day, it's just easier to put on yoga pants, sports bra, and a "zoom-appropriate" top. Or a button-up layered over my workout tank. It makes it SO much easier to squeeze in a workout when I have time.

Tell me I'm not the only one who's not going back to work clothes?!

Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸 But reall Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸

But really, keep your gaze straight ahead to keep your neck safe in bridge (or Setu Bandha Sarvangasana). It's rare that a version of this pose isn't included during cooldown in my classes.

Do you love bridge as much as I do?

"Every ending is a beginning. We just don't know i "Every ending is a beginning. We just don't know it at the time." -Mitch Albom

Last Friday, we ventured to a trail near Carbondale for the most beautiful ride with huge wildflowers everywhere. It was a great trail with good climbing, plenty of flow in the middle, and A LOT of switchbacks on the descent. Our first 2 hour ride of the season and it was a blast!

I didn't know it at the time, but it was also the last ride on my Liv mountain bike - because I got a new bike on Sunday! ✨

If you're in Colorado & in the market for a new bike, I highly recommend Over The Edge in Fruita. I test rode 6 bikes & then took the Pivot Mach 5.5 out on the trail to be sure it was the right one. Great experience!!
