MY AFTER WORK ROUTINE
Hi everyone! Welcome back to The Dairy Free Diaries! Hope you guys had an amazing week. Today’s blog post is all about what I do after work to keep myself sane from 32-hour work weeks on top of studying for the LSAT. One word- Reflective: I use this word because right about now is the one-year anniversary from when the COVID pandemic started and completely changed the world as we know it. I find myself thinking back to what my life looked like a year ago and I am shocked. This past year has been such a growth period for me, physically and mentally. It feels like that person I used to be just…

My Tips for Boosting Your Immunity + Homemade Immunity Shot Recipes
Hi everyone, welcome back to The Dairy Free Diaries! Hope you all have been doing great! This week’s blog post is on a topic I absolutely love and that is so important, especially during a pandemic. Boosting my immunity has been something I have tried so hard to work on especially because I used to get sick a lot growing up and even in my adulthood.

This continued up until college and I decided that enough was enough. I started…

Stress 101: How to Reduce It and Why You Should
Hi everyone! This week’s topic is all about stress, which is something I think is not talked about enough. I know that in my experience, stress is something I would continually choose to ignore. And by choosing to ignore it, it impacted many aspects of my life. If I were stressed out about school, it would not allow me to focus when I was doing other things. My mind was constantly thinking about this and that and I just felt so overwhelmed by my thoughts. It became very hard to concentrate and live in the moment because I was always so worried about something. It became unbearable and was interfering…

My Journey with Food Sensitivities and Gut Health + Where I’m at Today
Throughout high school, I was eating semi-healthy. I was playing high school and club soccer, so I was extremely active and in very good shape. Food wasn’t something I ever thought deeply about. I pretty much would eat whatever was in my house or what the cafeteria at school had. I definitely wasn’t eating the healthiest I could have, but I would say I ate more or less 50% healthy. Right after high school, I had stopped playing soccer and was not active whatsoever. Soccer was never something I did for the exercise; it was always because I genuinely enjoyed it and when it was no longer a part of…
