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!

    Stepping outside into the fresh air and sunshine gives me a burst of energy. Also just getting up and moving if I’ve been sitting too long.

    Oh COOL! I’ve heard of grounding but I didn’t know that there was such a thing as grounding SHOES.

    I generally stay energized by drinking tea, going for walks, and taking short breaks from work throughout the day.

  41. april on December 9, 2014 at 2:23 pm

    Having a nice big drink of really cold water. Sounds strange but it wakes up my system a bit so I can focus better at work.

    My oatmeal breakfast and running after my toddler 🙂

  44. Shana on December 9, 2014 at 2:25 pm

    A dance break with my toddler! His silly moves are guaranteed to make me laugh and it’s a fun way that we can be active together too.

  45. Jackie on December 9, 2014 at 2:26 pm

    Lots of coffee! Also deep breaths and closing my eyes for few seconds

  46. Tricia @ A Couple of Dashes on December 9, 2014 at 2:26 pm
