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 shouldn’t count… haha But definitely coffee, and I love to have a green smoothie most mornings to get me going as well.
Exercise and extra sleep on the weekends. Coffee during the week, and especially on Fridays when I treat myself to a maple latte instead of regular coffee. However, the extra energy could be just knowing it’s Friday, too … 😉
With winter in full swing in the Northeast I need all the help I can get. I always start with green tea and a glass of fresh orange juice. I also just got into essential oils and have a refreshing blend that helps energize me.
Morning workouts and drinking lots of water!
I went to a shopping area in LA yesterday to grab some fro-yo. As part of their Christmas decorations, they make it “snow” every hour or so. Seeing the little kids RUNNING around/Freaking out about the snow completely made my night and energized me. I loved it!
I 2nd the green tea. I love me some green chai and it must be by Stash tea!
A nice morning workout followed by a latte!

going for a run always energizes me!
My tired time comes about 3:00, so I always grab an apple or banana and go for a run! It really livens you up and helps you destress!
