    Raw Cacao Fruit Balls

    April 24, 2020 by Veronica Victoria Wellness

    Cacao Fruit Balls aka Yummy Chocolatey Snacks

    I am so excited to share with you the Raw Cacao Fruit Ball Recipe! It is one of my favorite snacks to have in the house. You can make it once and then have it for a few weeks after (depending how quick you eat it of course!)

    Please feel free to have fun with this one and add/alter the ingredients to your liking. The more you make, the more you’ll have. The beauty with these snacks is that you freeze them so you can have them for a while.

    Ingredients

    Dried Dates (1 cup)
    Prunes (1/2 cup)
    Cacao (1/2 cup)
    Coconut Oil (2 tsp)
    Chia Seeds (1 tablespoon) optional
    Ground Flax Seeds (1 tablespoon) optional

    Instructions

    1. Soak dried dates in water for at least an hour prior to using.
    2. Once soaked, add all ingredients into a food processor and blend. If you don’t have a food processor, a blender could work as well.
    3. Once blended, just roll into balls and put into a tupperware container and freeze!
    4. Best if frozen for at least an hour before eating.
    5. To prolong shelf-life, also wrap in saran wrap first and then put into tupperware.
      Enjoy!!

    HEALTH TIP 22 ⚡️⚡️ HELP FOR HEADACHES- WHI HEALTH TIP 22 ⚡️⚡️ HELP FOR HEADACHES- WHITE WILLOW BARK DROPS

I used to get headaches all the time but since I started eating intuitively and paying attention to my body (listening when it needs rest, feeding it supplements that it needs and avoiding foods that don’t make me feel good), my headaches are very rare!
On the occasion that I do get one, I wanted to something that was natural so I gave White Willow Bark drops a try about a year ago. I was shocked they worked!!
I keep a bottle in the house and then take one with me in my bag when I’m out of the house or for traveling.

The details!
•white willow bark contains salicin, which is a chemical similar to aspirin
•the herb itself has anti-inflammatory compounds
•in combination it provides pain relief and anti-inflammatory effects

Brand I like is tagged in my profile link under Amazon Shop 🔗🔗

One of the most dreaded workouts but there are so many variations and I always say to listen to your body and what you can handle! 

Planks aren’t just for the abs also- they activate other muscles including the glutes, hamstrings and lower back (especially when I add a leg lift 🤪)

I wasn’t going to post this video because I didn’t like how it came out with the seaweed in the front. But then I remembered that just like I had to step over the seaweed to get to the beautiful ocean, life isn’t perfect and you will have moments that aren’t easy and that you need to step through to get to the beauty. And you will, have faith. 🤍
