Favorite things giveaway: Juil flats
Hi! Happy Tuesday! Hope you’re enjoying the morning so far!
Onto today’s favorite things giveaway, courtesy of my friends at Juil! (They also offered a discount code; just enter “FITNESSISTA15” to get 15% off through next Tuesday.)
These are the flats I’ve been living in this fall.
If you’re not familiar with the Juil brand, they specialize in grounding shoes. The concept of grounding (also called earthing), involves the benefits we receive from close proximity to the earth’s surface. You may notice that you feel different when you walk barefoot on the earth, as opposed to strapped into the thick shoes and walking on cement. Through copper points in these shoes, the free radicals (which cause inflammation in the boxy) can be neutralized and released through the earth. I always feel more energized and light on my feet when I’m wearing grounding shoes.
Grounding shoes have not always been the most fashion forward, but Juil has dramatically changed that. Their shoes are absolutely gorgeous, well-constructed with leather, and feel like a DREAM.
I asked Juil if they’d be interested in participating in this week’s giveaway, and they generously offered flats to two very lucky readers.
The style I’m wearing above are the Aria, but I also have my eyes on the Ohk!
Here’s how to enter this giveaway:

Coffee!!!
Frequent breaks from the computer and sitting to get up and stretch my body, maybe even with a few yoga moves or short walking, depending on time and location. Tons of water for hydration is key as well!

I love these flats so much every time you post about them!
I’ve been consistently getting my workouts in every morning before I get my kids up to go to school. I haven’t had that 2pm slump like I used to. I am NOT a morning person by any stretch of the imagination, but I’m loving how energized I feel throughout the day 🙂
Such cute shoes! Taking time for myself throughout the day keeps me energized!
Coffee, water, and my work out!
Excercise keeps me energized! And coffee!!
PiYo workouts in the afternoon and coffee in the morning! I also do a few sun salutations if I need a quick pick me up!

Love these! Something that energizes me through the day (especially now at 9 mo pregnant!) is setting aside 10-15 min of yoga practice, or even just some basic poses with breathing (less and less mobile these days!)

Coffee and little chats with my co-workers during prep times really help me stay energized!
A quick or long cardio sesh first thing in the morning helps me get through my day! Also, if I’m not sitting down all the time…
Those are such gorgeous pairs of flats. I don’t own a single pair. My shoe collection is pretty poor.

Drinking enough water throughout the day keeps me pretty energized. Notice a big difference on the weekends when I’m running around like crazy and not hydrating as much as I should.
I’m energized when I start my day with exercise. I also sip water throughout the day which keeps me from being sleepy and dehydrated.
COFFEE first thing in the am 😉
Talking with my friends energizes me during the day!

Drinking enough water throughout the day keeps me energized.
After I’ve been sitting at my desk all day, I like to take a walk through my building. It re-energizes me and I always come back more focused to finish out the day.
A short walk always helps to make me feel more energized.

Early morning workouts and an afternoon decaf TJ peppermint green tea keep me energized through the day!

Eating breakfast! Sounds a bit trivial but breakfast to me is like fuel for the morning.
Just taking a short break to go for a quick walk helps me always!
