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.)

Juil

These are the flats I’ve been living in this fall.

Juil  1 of 1

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!

    Whenever I’m getting tired while studying, I go workout! I can usually come back and put in another 2 hours of studying after that.

  14. Michelle on December 9, 2014 at 8:10 am

    Coffee! (Though I try to avoid too much.)

  22. Kristina m on December 9, 2014 at 8:14 am

    Being a stay at home mom with two littles I sometimes run out of energy really quick. We try and spend time outside the fresh air just helps me and living in SoCal it’s not too cold yet

    I always try to keep up with my water consumption….I feel so much better when I’m hydrated.

  28. Jaime on December 9, 2014 at 8:21 am

    What energizes me is taking a break at lunch to workout with my trainer. She’s hilarious and always kicks my butt into high gear!

  29. Aya on December 9, 2014 at 8:21 am

    Sad but true: avoiding sugar helps me maintain amazing energy throughout the day. Also, I follow you on Pinterest!

  30. Karlie on December 9, 2014 at 8:21 am

    Getting at least 8 hours of sleep at night. This is a new concept for me and it’s crazy how much energy I have during the day because of it!

  31. Hannah on December 9, 2014 at 8:24 am

    Working out! I’m so much more energized when I work out in the morning.

  32. Brittany on December 9, 2014 at 8:25 am

  34. Julia on December 9, 2014 at 8:26 am

    When I’m dragging and doing well with exercising a quick ten minute session is a great pick me up – but otherwise I drink an emergent-c and wake up right away.

  36. Whitney Athayde on December 9, 2014 at 8:26 am

    I love doing yoga inversions for a quick energy boost!

  37. Andrea S on December 9, 2014 at 8:26 am

    Sleep is always nice, but when that fails, coffee and water. The coffee i’m good at, the water is a chore, but i’m getting better!

  38. Kristen on December 9, 2014 at 8:28 am

    A walk outside mid-afternoon is a great energy boosting trick!

  44. Jenna L. on December 9, 2014 at 8:31 am

    I try to get in walks throughout the day to get energized and clear my head.

  45. Amber Schumann on December 9, 2014 at 8:31 am

    As hard as it is to get up at 4:30am, getting an early morning workout makes me feel like Wonder Woman the rest of the day!

    That and getting through the morning routine smoothly without my toddler fighting back 🙂

  47. Melissa on December 9, 2014 at 8:31 am

    Going to sound so basic, but getting in some form of daily exercise (whether vigorous or just a walk with the dogs) helps energize and put me in the right frame of mind.

  48. Cara on December 9, 2014 at 8:32 am

    Coffee and exercise are two ways I start my day to kick start my energy. Music is also a great pick me up 🙂
