Sweet Tooth, Sweet Life

Courtney at Sweet Tooth, Sweet Life has started an awesome challenge for June. Are you taking the June Yoga Challenge? I was in before I even finished reading the blog post about it!

The Challenge:

Incorporate Yoga into your exercise routine 3 days per week!

How I incorporated it:

1. An 1hr 15 minute yoga session at a local hot yoga studio (yay for Groupon and trying out new places!).

2. Spent 20 minutes mastering the Crow pose (for some reasons, I have always struggled with this one!)

3.  I also downloaded a free 20 minute audio yoga workout from YogaDownload.com and completed it at home.

My thoughts:

  • So relaxing!
  • Awesome stretching!
  • Can’t wait until next week!

It’s not too late to join the challenge!

I have always loved the flavor cherry! Who doesn’t? I think cherry may just be every child’s favorite flavor growing up and a love of cherry tends to stick with us as we become adults!

When Garian from CheriBundi so graciously offered to send me a sample pack of Cheribundi, I was extremely excited!

Here’s a little bit about CheriBundi directly from their website:

Sometimes it takes regular people to stumble upon a really good thing. That’s how cheribundi™ was created: snacking on Montmorency tart cherries eased a regular person’s back pain. This anecdotal cure was researched by food scientists at Cornell University who not only uncovered the benefits of tart cherries, but also developed a proprietary juicing process so all the cherry-goodness and nutrients could be delivered in a great tasting juice.

Whether you’re trying to stay active and healthy or win a triathlon, this juice made from America’s Superfruit™ will give you benefits exclusive to the round little fruit. Drink daily any one of our five varieties (Tru Cherry™, Skinny Cherry™, Ginger Cherry™, Cacao Cherry™ or Whey Cherry™) and you’ll find yourself living life to the fullest, feeling on top of your game and giggling at our funny name – every day.

I was extremely excited to receive a dozen 8oz bottles of Cheribundi (flavors include whey cherry, ginger cherry, tru cherry, skinny cherry and cacao cherry. Plus I received plenty of literature on Cheribundi and the benefits of cherry juice!

Tart cherry juice (was even featured on the Dr. Oz Show) and it’s benefits include:

  • Pain relief
  • Sleep aid
  • Fights heart disease
  • Packed with antioxidants!

When the literature informed me that Cheribundi can help with sleep and joint aches and pains…I was unbelievably excited! I swear sometimes I am nocturnal and I feel like I am always, always recovering from an injury or experiencing nagging pain from a past injury.

I decided to take the Cheribundi Challenge! The challenge? Drink cheribundi for four days and feel the difference! I must say 6 days later, I am enjoying my Cheribundi and my sample kit is halfway gone. I’ve noticed a decrease in foot/ankle pain (I have been resting though too) and I feel like I am sleeping through the night!

Overall, Cheribundi is a great tasting drink (though it is a little tarte) and I can see the benefits. I plan on using the remainder of my drinks to experiment with smoothies (I will let you know how that goes!).

Want to get your own sample case of Cheribundi? The gracious folks at Cheribundi want you to have the same great sample case I received!
