WHY JUICE? IS IT ANOTHER FAD DIET?

It’s been two years since I bought a juicer and started drinking one juice daily, I used to mix fruit and veggies and didn't have a clear idea what it did for me, but I’ve heard that it was great for detoxing and for increasing the intake of fruits and veggies  in a short amount of time. Little by little, as I started to investigate, reading and watching documentaries I realized how vital it is to add veggie juices to your daily diet. But why?

ACID VS ALKALINE, THE BATTLE THAT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE!

One really interesting matter that’s helped me a lot in regards, of what foods to choose on a daily basis it’s learning how to balance my body’s pH and how this directly impacts my health (that’s why I think I don’t get the flu anymore…hooray!...knockin’ on wood) and now I’m going to explain it to you guys, so it can be applied with every meal… things are going to get a little scientific but there’s really no other way to explain it.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH MARINARA

*Insert music from The Godfather*

My Italian grandma is about to disinherit me for recommending this pasta substitute that I truly prefer a gazilion times to the real deal. I eat until full and with zero guilt! Here I leave it so you guys can get inspired, next time I will try it with pesto...yum!

HERE WE GO AGAIN...!

I still can’t believe that I’m back! You guys don’t know how much I’ve been waiting for this moment to arrive, and after a whole year….here I am! If you used to follow me, you probably were thinking what happened? Why did I stop writing suddenly? Let me explain.

After living in California for 365 beautiful, hard, inspiring and fantastic days, I moved back to Caracas, Venezuela and was over there for six months. While living in my city, I felt the blog was way too personal content wise to keep journaling and to be specifying about where I was daily, my activities, favorite places, etc. I wasn’t going out at night and basically my life revolved around work, the radio show and home, long story short, for security reasons I preferred to stop posting and left everything on standby.

Thanks to the wonderful turns of life, a huge working opportunity presented itself in Miami (where I live now), and in that preparation month to move back to the US, God gave me a huge spiritual slap so deep, that from one day to the next I experienced the joy of living that I had long lost in my adolescence, a gap that before was never satiated, was filled. In the course of a week I was a witness of how my soul and mind were healing, I don’t know how to explain it scientifically or logically, even I couldn’t believe what was happening, but I’m definitely proof that miracles exist and from then on I can’t deny the existence of God, who now guides every step that I take.

After moving here, I immediately wanted to start the blog again, but was in an adaptation phase and also didn’t wanted to come up with the same, I wanted to make it special for you guys, and give you not only something interesting to see, but to provide a place where you feel at home, a space where I can inform you of what makes me lose sleep, where we could develop together as physical beings that need to nourish and love the marvelous machine that we call body, never forgetting that we are primarily spiritual beings that need love, balance and faith to keep walking in this world, that every day is more and more tough.

After years of being passionate about nutrition, functional medicine, natural and alternative healing methods, of exercise, of living green, of going on a million fad diets, of feeling frustrated and sick every day of my life because of my hypothyroidism, lactose intolerance and irritable bowel…of reading, reading, reading, trying, discarding and reading, reading a little more… it came to a point where I thought if this is what fascinates me, what I love to talk about and what I have most knowledge on… what am I doing that I’m not sharing it with other people? Instantly I knew that the blog was going to change.

All I can tell you is that I will sit here on my little chair to write every day about my journey, about how to heal our bodies with the correct foods, about the little details in life, about the music that moves my senses, sudden inspiration, spiritual growth, training and I will even cook healthy and lovely recipes (without knowing how to cook, may I dare to say, but we will learn together) for all of you to enjoy.

Here I come without expectations, just with an open heart, life and experiences, and from here on let everything that may come…come! I really hope that your seat belt is on tight, because we are only beginning copilots!

What would be of life without these little joys!

With Love,
Romina

TU GENERACION

Hola a todos!!! disculpen el abandono, pero la verdad me mude hace tres semanas y no logro que me instalen internet, porque no hay numeros de telefono disponibles en CANTV!!! que llame en 90 dias...wtf!! osea que puedo sentarme a esperar.

Tambien debo admitir que esto ha sido una fase de adaptacion fuerte para mi ya que no habia terminado de bajarme del avion cuando ya tenia mil cosas que hacer y resolver. Pero estoy feliz porque tengo de vuelta al programa de radio Tu Generacion (@tugeneracion_) junto a mi amiga Jairam Navas, que se dio de la nada un dia que tomabamos cafe para echarnos los cuentos ya que ella tambien esta recien llegada de Holanda..bueno decidimos retomar nuestro bebe y al proponerselo a Hot 94.1 FM quedaron super encantados y nosotras mas aun. Nos pueden escuchar todos los sabados y domingos de 7 a 8 PM. :) Apoyenos! a ver si logramos pasar a la semana, seria brutal. Es un programa muy personal, donde ponemos la musica que a ambas nos gusta y que hemos recolectado a lo largo de nuestras aventuras...es como el lado B de este blog...o el soundtrack de este blog mejor dicho y lo disfruto muchisimo.

Pronto retomare mis ejercicios, la verdad mi estilo de vida aqui es tan opuesto al que tenia, debido a que tengo horarios mas estrictos que cumplir, etc que eso afecta un poco mi motivacion para ejercitarme, pero se acabo descubri un plan para rayarse en 3 meses y es durisimo hahhhaha! pero que es el cambio sin esfuerzo de por medio..verdad? Es mas cuando ya me inscriba en el gym en la semana y postee el plan lo hacemos junt@s, que les parece? y compartimos fotos de nuestro prograso al final...si?

Mañana me estaran entrevistando a las 8:30 am en La Tele, durante el programa "Lo que ellas quieren" si lo quieren chequear.

 Les mando millones de besos, no crean que me olvido de que esto existe, de hecho mi blog es una forma con la cual plasmo mis ideas y libero stress.MWAHHHHHH!!!!!!!
