Calling my health conscious Gleaux Goddesses! Recently, I have added golden milk (some refer to it as golden tea) to my drinking regimen. I knew immediately I wanted to share this recipe with you because it is packed with many health benefits and healing properties.

The fact that this healthy concoction tastes great too, I can't wait for you to share in my excitement!

The main ingredient in this drink is turmeric. Turmeric, which contains curcumin, exhibits over 150 potentially therapeutic activities.

Benefits:
- Anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiseptic, analgesic
- Promotes digestive health
- Boosts immunity
- Regulates metabolism and weight
- Anticarcinogen
- Improves Memory and Cognitive Function
- Helps to improve Blood Pressure
- Helps to improve Triglycerides
- Helps with sleep
- GLEAUXing skin

Ingredients:
2 cups of milk. Almond or Coconut
1 tsp organic ground turmeric
1/4 tsp organic ground ginger powder
1/2 tsp organic ground cinnamon
1 tsp organic honey or maple syrup
pinch of ground black pepper (optional)

Instructions:
Place all ingredients into a small pot and heat for 3 to 5 minutes until hot, but not boiling.
Pour into your favorite cup and Enjoy!!


So, instead of pulling out a bottle of wine the next time you are trying to unwind from the day, make a cup of golden milk instead.

Let me know what you think in the comments. XOXO

Set SMARTer Goals for GLEAUXing Results



It’s a new year! And if you are a GLEAUXgetter, being a better version of yourself is on the top of your list. According to a recent study, “being a better person” and “weight loss” share the top spot as 2018’s most popular New Year’s resolution. Additionally, “exercising more” and “eating healthier” also tops the list when speaking with clients, co-workers, and friends.

Unfortunately, most resolutions will fail by February. Don't let this be you. To stick to your goals, make them SMARTer.

A SMART Goal

The SMART method of goal setting is based on the following acronym of principles that will help you set a clear and achievable goal that will increase your likelihood of success:
Specific: Target a certain behavior. It should be clear and easy to understand.
example: I will lose weight by counting calories and eating healthier food using help from a weight-loss app.
Measurable: Quantify or at least suggest an indicator of progress.
example: I will, on average, eat X calories a day.
Attainable: Make sure you have enough time and resources to achieve your goal.
example: With an intake of X calories a day, I will lose weight in a sustainable healthy pace for my size.
Realistic: State what results can realistically be achieved, given available resources.
example: I’m gonna allow myself to have a cheat meal once per week. I have taken this into account in my realistic weight goal of Y pounds.
Timely: Specify when the result(s) can be achieved.
example: I will reach my goal in ____ weeks.

You deserve to give yourself more than just wishful thinking in 2018. Don't forget to make the process Enjoyable and Rewarding!
