A New Look and Thank You

Hello lovlies! 

In a previous post I was asking for blogging advice, you can read that post here. A lot of the advice I received was to create more of a custom look, and that is just what I did! This is the new and improved "Love Cleansing" and I hope you love it as much as I do. I wanted to thank those of you that gave such great advice. It really gave me the push to do what I really needed to get done!

I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week! Mine is going to be crazy busy with finals next week, home parties, and just work in general. These next 2 weeks are going to fly by, but I am totally okay with that! 

Summer couldn't get here fast enough. 

I would love to here your thoughts of what you think about my new look! 

"National Samantha Day"

Hello lovlies! 
Today my amazing boyfriend Vince declared that it was "National Samantha Day."
 We both went and got massages, ate an early dinner at an incredible tuscan grill restaurant (they have the BEST grilled salmon salad) you can see my delicious meal below.

After our decadent meal, we walked around the outside mall and enjoyed the beautiful weather. I made a quick hour stop into Express and found some pieces I could not leave without! 

Here they are:

I figured since I'm a business woman now I had to update my closet even more for outfits for all the events I will be attending! I also bought 2 new pairs of earring and a long necklace form H&M. 

After our my shopping spree, we stopped by our favorite little ice cream shop and I got my infamous Mocha Almond Fudge and Vince got his Mint Chocolate Chip. We have been really great with eating healthy lately, so a little treat every now and then it totally acceptable!

We then went back to his house and watched a tear jerker called, "A Little Bit of Heaven" staring Kate Hudson. I could not stop crying... I'm just a baby when it comes to movies like this. Have any of you seen this movie? If so, I would love to hear what you thought of it! 

Anyways, "National Samantha Day" was a complete success and I think there should be more of them ;) But first a "National Vince Day" is going to have to turn up! Have any of you dedicated a day to your other half? I would also love to hear about it!

FYI! I am extremely excited because I just ordered a pre-made blog design! I have been wanting to do this for FOREVER and I finally found the perfect one for me. It should be up and running in about a week, so don't forget to check back in to see it! 

I hope you have a blessed weekend! 

Yours in Health, 

Samantha, LMT

Rely for Life Recap

Relay for Life was an incredible experience... It was from 6pm Saturday-6am Sunday morning. It was tiring, but completely worth it! We walked around the track all night long. I walked about a total of 8 miles! If you aren't sure what Relay for Life is, you can check out my post here. The university raised over 60K for cancer and we beat universities twice our size! Here are some pictures to give a little recap of what went down.

There was a "jail" you could pay people to send one of your friends in and they had to raise double the amount that got them in there! Dennis (below) did backflips to raise money to be released. 

The theme was Disney, how much better can you get? You can't really tell from these pictures that it was Disney themed but there were Disney songs playing all night long and every booth had it's own fun twist.  

This is my best friend Rachel (left) and I (right). She was our team captain! Her dad is a cancer survivor and he was there as well. There was a ceremony remembering all those that have passed from cancer and it was incredibly moving... I wish I got a picture of it. I can't wait to go back next year and raise more money and awareness to fight back! 

My boyfriend and I got "married"!! There was a fake wedding ceremony booth and it was so much fun! I thought it was a really cute idea. The sorority that ran it was supposed to email us a picture that they took of the actual "ceremony", but sadly we have yet to receive it :( 

If I ever get it, I promise to post it!

There were physical activities to keep everyone moving and awake because if you stopped walking you would most likely fall asleep... Here is a short video clip of hundreds of students doing Zumba to keep the energy up! I am going to have to take a Zumba class ASAP... it's a blast. 

Love Always,  Samantha Health & Wellness Coach/ Licensed Massage Therapist  www.lovecleansing.com My job is helping others, what's more rewarding than that? Referrals are greatly appreciated!

Relay for Life

Hello loves! 

Sorry it's been awhile since I've posted. I've been extremely busy with my new business, but it's so exciting how much it's starting to flourish in such a short amount of time! I would love to tell you about it and how you could make an additional income by helping yourself and others become the healthiest you can be! I don't know what else I would rather be doing...

 I'm participating in Relay for Life this weekend with the American Cancer Society. It's my first year participating in this event and I couldn't be more excited!

 If you would like to make a donation towards fighting cancer, you can email me and I can show you how to do so. We can all make a difference together. 

Yesterday my boss told me she was diagnosed with Leukemia (CML). She has such an incredible attitude about it and is so strong. I truly believe she can overcome this with the grace of God and her positive attitude and willingness to not give up (prayers are greatly appreciated). I can't wait to do my part in fighting cancer, it's time for it to lose. 

Check out the Relay for Life website here to read more about it. 

I will be posting sometime early next week with pictures and how it all went down, so don't forget to check back in soon! 

Love Always, 

Samantha,

"Health is one of the greatest gifts." 

Pinterest Inspired

These next few recipes looked so delicious that I had to share them with you all... I found them all on Pinterest (hence the title). 

I am a successive water drinker, but sometimes water just can't quench the thirst like you need it too! Have you found that problem before? I've found that whenever it does happen, I lean more towards sugary drinks, which is ironic. So let's all skip store bought flavored drinks (many are full of sugar/artificial sweeteners) and make our own... 

(originally from Nancy Creative)

FRUIT WATER

1 each of the following fruits: apple, lemon, orange, pear

4 large strawberries

Handful of raspberries

Handful of mint leaves

1 half-gallon of water

I have been addicted to spinach salads lately, and strawberries in them just makes it all the better...

 (originally from Annie's Eats) 

Strawberry Spinach Salad

Printer-Friendly Version

Ingredients:
For the dressing:
1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
2½ tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1½ tbsp. champagne*
1 tbsp. sugar
Pinch of salt

For the salad:
Baby spinach leaves, rinsed and dried
Sliced almonds, for topping
Sliced fresh strawberries, for topping

I hope you have a relaxing Sunday tomorrow! Let's all make our days healthier one good decision at a time. 

Love Always, 

Samantha, LMT
