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!

    The best way for me to get energized is to get OUTSIDE and soak up the sun! If that’s not an option, an impromptu dance party in my living room is a close second 🙂

    A few sun saluations first thing out of bed helps wake me up. Plus lots of water and an exercise routine keeps the energy flowing!

    Exercise and listening to upbeat music!

  26. Alex on December 9, 2014 at 6:32 am

    Exercise! My day does not start the same way if I don’t work out in the morning

  27. Katie on December 9, 2014 at 6:32 am

    I’ve had my eye on these flats for months! Thanks for the giveaway!

    As far as something that energizes me…I have a desk job and find that long periods of sitting is very draining. So I have incorporated 3-4 minute yoga stretch breaks throughout my day. Sometimes just standing and doing side stretches; other times doing full out downward facing dog. It really helps!
