For those nights when you’re craving something sweet but don’t feel like baking an entire batch of cookies!

Ingredients:
- ¼ cup almond flour
- 3 tbsp almond butter
- 1 tsp ground flaxseed
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Chocolate chips or chunks
- Flaky sea salt (optional)

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl until a thick dough forms.
3. Shape the dough into one large cookie and gently flatten.
4. Press a few extra chocolate chips on top.
5. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the edges are set and the center is still soft.

nothing groundbreaking…just a few little things that make my weeks feel a little less chaotic + a lot more manageable 🤍

and I’m still learning that a good week doesn’t have to go exactly as planned.

Whole Foods fall finds part 2 🎃🍂

Which one would you try first? 👀

I’ve been realizing lately that feeling better doesn’t always come from doing more.

Sometimes it’s actually the opposite.

Moving my body without worrying if it “counts.”
Making easy meals instead of trying to make everything perfect.
Letting my routines change with the day.
Keeping wellness simple.
Choosing consistency over trying to do everything perfectly.

Turns out, a lot of things feel better when I stop making them so complicated. 🤍

What’s something you’ve simplified lately?

#simplehabits #wellnesstip #simplifyyourlife

some movement > no movement 🤍

easy meals have saved me more times than I can count

still a routine girl… just a much more flexible one

I really don’t need to try every wellness trend I see on the internet

this one might be the biggest lesson for me

and tomorrow we wake up and do it all over again 🤍
