It Is Time To Concentrate On Healthy Living

Spring is here and a beautiful spring it is. It is time to get outside and enjoy our bodies and the weather. I have been absent from blogging for a few months, I will be posting new blogs on a regular basis. I would love to hear from you about things you are doing in your own lives to feel and be healthy. As far as myself goes I am on a constant quest for new and exciting recipes. I will be sharing these with you as well as some new exercises we are working on at FunctionetiKs.com to keep our posture anatomically correct. Good posture allows the body to look and feel it's BEST!

Promoting a Movement Based Life

Promoting a Movement Based Life You have heard it before; sitting is not good for you! We all know sitting is not good for us but most of us spend our days sitting for most of our day. As clients of Functionetiks you all have a designated time each day that you work on your function. Your individualized menu. This is amazing and makes everything you do for the rest of the day a bit more functional. How functional can you be if you spend the majority of the day sitting? It wasn't long ago in our history of humans that our survival was determined by our ability to move. As humans we are designed to move; we can walk, run, jump, climb, carry heavy objects etc...

It's whats for dinner tonight!

Chicken Ceasar Salad Burrito This is a quick and easy weeknight meal your whole family will like. First you need to grill chicken breasts. I do this on my inside stovetop griddle. Second you need Ceasar Salad. You can buy the bag of ready to go caesar salad, or as in my case use fresh romaine lettuce with a bottled Ceasar Dressing with your favorite croutons. I used white flour tortillas from Trader Joes, (my family prefers them to the whole wheat), use what your family likes. Layer the Ceasar Salad in the tortilla, top with sliced chicken breast. Roll the tortilla around the salad and chicken. Enjoy! My daughter calls these green burritos.
