7.5 Friday Faves

Hi friends! How are you? Happy Friday to ya! Whatโ€™s going on this weekend? We had the BEST time in Spain and are back in the states after 10 amazing days in one of our new favorite places. Iโ€™m working on some blog post recaps to share, but in the meantime, here are some pics!

Itโ€™s time for the weekly Friday Faves party! This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, so please shout out something youโ€™re loving in the comments section below.

7.5 Friday Faves

Read, watch, listen:

I readย Nora Goes Off Script last year and loved it, so of course I had to start this.

What are your hopes for this summer?

How your environment affects cognitive health.

Fitness, health, and good eats:

Melatonin. I was on the fence about melatonin for years. But with more knowledge, Iโ€™ve changed my mind. I think it can have benefits, and can absolutely be used as a tool for better sleep. I ordered this to try at home to see if it might help me sleep on the long overnight flight – usually Iโ€™m too anxious to sleep – and it was everything. It helped me doze off and get a great plane catnap on the way to Spain.

We had zero transition to Spain time – itโ€™s the first time EVER we could jump in the first day and not feel totally jet-lagged.

Not medical advice – just sharing something that worked well for me – and of course, always talk to a doctor before taking new supplements. The link to the liquid melatonin is here and my discount code is FITNESSISTA10.

Got this olive oil to bring back with our souvenirs. Itโ€™s been rated #1 in the world for many years; you can actually find it on Amazon. Iโ€™ll probably order more there when we run out.

Small Somavedic. Iโ€™ve been a huge fan of our regular-sized Somavedic – I use it to potentially help mitigate EMFs and for water structuring – and was pumped when they sent a smaller one that I can use in my car or office. Itโ€™s so gorgeous!! You can read more about the science behind Somavedic here and use my code FITNESSISTA for a discount. They also have a 30-day return policy, so you can try it for a while and see if you like it.

Fashion + beauty + random:

Obsessed with this Farm Rio dress. Itโ€™s true to size and on sale!

I should have bought more of this hand cream at the Farmacia. SO silky and thick, with a light floral scent, and it was like 4 euros.

These tanning drops! I use these all year to turn regular body lotion into tanning lotion.

Hope you have a happy weekend and Iโ€™ll see ya soon!

xoxo

    Ehhhh as a scientist, I’m not sure I would qualify that link as having any science in the ‘science behind Somavedic’ but to each their own. Can’t wait to hear more about Spain!

      as someone in the profession, I would love to hear how you classify science. it’s interesting to hear from others how they perceive it. thank you! I’ll definitely share all the details ๐Ÿ™‚
