This has been a favorite of mine for many years now. It is so simple. All you do is roast Brazil nuts ( I roasted mine a tad too long here so watch closely as it roasts quick) add chocolate of choice to them, freeze then store in a jar in the refrigerator or freezer for when you want a little sweet crunch. I also add salt to the tops. Soooo good! #glutenfreesweettreats #balancedwellness #healingjourney #nobloat #chocolatetreat by @balanced.with.britney

The past year has been one of the hardest seasons of my life. Between our mold battle with our home and ending up in another moldy rental, my health and mindset took a bigger hit than I ever expected.
So today, I’m getting back to the basics.
I’m choosing to nourish my body, care for my mind, and take it one day at a time.
This morning started with my favorite smoothie and a simple reminder to look for the good. Even in the hardest seasons, there are still blessings to be found. I just don’t want to miss them. 🥹
This isn’t about perfection or a quick fix. It’s about rebuilding healthy habits, renewing my mind, and making small choices each day that help me feel more like myself again despite our current situation.
If you’ve ever felt like life knocked you off track, know you’re not alone.🤍

2010 me would have laughed if she saw a glimpse into her future 🤣 what does this list even mean😆Years ago I met a girl who didn’t have normal toothpaste, normal food, normal ANYTHING and I thought she was so strange 😆🤣 I was so confused but also so intrigued I couldn’t look away. Turns out she was just years ahead of me. Now I AM that girl. The one people look at a little sideways sometimes. Anyone relate?😆Full circle moment. #wellnessjourney #holistichealth #lesstoxicliving #crunchymama #healthymoms by @balanced.with.britney

The #1 question I have got the past year since leaving our home was definitely, “how did you know you had mold in your house?” Our home wasn’t a new build or anything (not that that means no toxic mold) but we had lived in older (even older then our current home) homes and did work to them and never saw mold or felt sick. I remember getting those results like it was yesterday. I was so lost and confused. I knew I had to figure out if that was why we were sick and if my home was the reason. (Or contributing) When I first opened this page I thought I’d be talking all about the journey since we’re deep in it but I just couldn’t. I could barely even talk about it with anyone for the longest time without bursting into tears. I still do now but at times I can handle it. I get tons of questions so I can go over those as well if anyone is curious or has any questions. I may not have the answers but we’ve been in this a year and we’ve made mistakes, we’ve learned a lot. I pray for anyone out there going through it. It’s truly so hard on so many levels. My mental load, my body, it’s all been through it and I have to dig deep to keep my head up to heal and not spiral. Some days are easier than others. #moldtesting #moldillness #moldinspection #mycotoxins by @balanced.with.britney

Sautéed apples has to be an all time favorite for years now. Did anyone get the rooty tooty fresh and fruity at IHOP? This always reminds me of that because I would always get the apple version on top.😆
Apples are packed with pectin, a prebiotic fiber that feeds your good gut bacteria. Just chop, sauté in coconut oil until soft, add cinnamon, and done. Throw them on yogurt, oats, ice cream, or eat them straight from the pan. I’ll even eat them cold😆

It’s not always about adding more. (At times I’m guilty of this😆) sometimes it’s about removing what’s stressing your body.
After living in mold, my body (and gut) felt wrecked. Getting out of that environment was huge. I look back just one year ago and I can’t believe how terrible I felt.
From there, I focused on slowing down and actually listening to my body instead of following every trend. Some days that looked like softer, cooked foods or even a smoothie instead of a big protein heavy meal.
I also started supporting digestion more. less snacking, eating in a calm state, and chewing my food WAY more (something I’m still working on).
What works for one person won’t always work for another, but these were key for me this year.
Progress over perfection, always 🤍 #healthyguts #guthealingjourney #guthealthjourney #moldawareness by @balanced.with.britney

pour 1/2 cup oj in a bowl and sprinkle gelatin, let bloom 3–5 min heat remaining oj (don’t boil), stir in honey, lemon + salt combine, whisk in collagen, pour into molds or dish and chill.

Just thinking what flavor we should try next! 😍

isn’t it kind of wild? eating real, whole foods is often seen as “being on a diet”
i’ve had so many moments where i’m just eating normal meals and someone asks what diet i’m doing.
I understand though, most of us grew up in a world where packaged and convenient became the norm. There were many years of things I had to “unlearn” it took a long time for me honestly. There’s a period of my life where I was one of those people thinking those with real food on their plates must be on the latest and greatest diet and I must ask them about it and hop on board😆
when you choose simple, real food, it can look like you’re doing something extreme when really you’re just getting back to basics. (Which is key to healing) this isn’t about perfection or cutting everything out just a reminder that real food isn’t “dieting” it’s just food. Food that fuels, and nourishes the body on so many levels. 🤍

For years I thought healthy meant less calories, less sugar, less fat.
I tracked everything. Started over every Monday. Tried every diet.
Food felt like something I had to control.
I had acne, gut issues, low energy and felt like if I ate one “off” thing I’d gain 10 pounds overnight.
It was exhausting.
Slowly, I started unlearning everything. I learned to trust my body again.
I stopped obsessing. Stopped labeling foods as “good” or “bad.” Started reading ingredients instead of counting calories. that’s when everything got better.
My skin cleared. my gut improved. my weight balanced.
Now it’s not about restriction it’s about nourishment, listening to my own body’s needs over trends  and finding balance in real life 🤍

Super easy peanut putter crispy bars
just a few simple ingredients, no marshmallows, and still so good!
4 cups brown rice crisp cereal 1 cup peanut butter 1/2 cup honey 2 tbsp coconut oil 1 tsp vanilla pinch of salt
mix, press into a pan, top with hemp seeds,chill, done
This specific recipe does well straight from the refrigerator. It can be slightly crumbly otherwise.
I used @therealcerealcompany for a healthier version. Everyone loves these!😍 #kidstreats #healthytreat #healthierdessert #minimalingredients by @balanced.with.britney
