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!

    A morning run always wakes me up for my day, it’s just getting more and more difficult to get out there as NY gets further into winter.

    Fresh air, the sun, and a little sweat works to energize me! Especially if I can combine all three 🙂

  20. Alycia on December 9, 2014 at 4:49 pm

    I love the ones you are wearing. Fashionable and comfortable? Sign me up!

    I work in an office so my energizing activity is taking the long way to the bathroom. The few minutes of walking definitely helps!

  24. jessica eapen on December 9, 2014 at 4:57 pm

    taking a walk outdoors really energizes me back up!

  25. Chelsea on December 9, 2014 at 4:59 pm

    To get some energy during the workday I like to dip into the bathroom for a minute, throw on a catchy tune (Think “Uptown Funk”), do a few air squats while lip syncing. Instant good mood.

    Drinking lots of water keeps me energized throughout the day! I recently gave up coffee and I have no idea how I’ve been able to do it, but I think water helps.

  37. Daina on December 9, 2014 at 5:14 pm

    A lunch time run always makes the day better and I don’t need that extra coffee!

  46. Jen on December 9, 2014 at 5:29 pm

    Taking a moment to appreciate the nature around me, whether it be outside with the trees, or looking out at the sunset, always helps me re-focus.
