Why we WON’T Stock our Fridge without This

Is it just us or does grocery shopping get a bad rap? We plan days, track workouts, schedule meetings, set daily intentions, make time for self-care, but what about when the fridge needs a refresh? We have enough stress in life, stocking the fridge shouldn’t be one of them. So we are sharing the ONE tool we use to never feel the dreaded grocery scaries again… a grocery list! Here is why you will never see us shopping without one again. 

WHY: 

Stress relief

HOW:

It can get overwhelming walking every aisle, knowing what you need while at the same time not knowing what you need, and then the moment of thinking “do I have this at home”? Doing a recheck before you leave the house and making a list will spare you that overwhelmed feeling. Sometimes you just want to be whelmed (IYKYK).

WHY:

Encourages healthier eating choices

HOW:

We can all agree that we strive to be our healthiest selves and that includes what we put into our bodies. You are what you eat right? The gut is our second brain and has a direct impact on the way our body functions on a daily basis. So think about what your gut needs and prioritize eating — and shopping — for your health.

BONUS TIP: She’s a 10, but she’s obsessed with planning. For all our planners out there, take grocery day one step further with weekly meal planning, talk about the ultimate stress relief.

WHY:

Cultivate productive habits

HOW:

We are all for spontaneity, but there is a time and place for it. In this relationship, there is something to be said for having a routine and prioritizing making a simple task (i.e grocery shopping) just a little bit easier. You will thank us later.

WHY:

Better time management 

HOW:

Life doesn’t slow down, so don’t waste time in the store by not being prepared. Use the super cute grocery list (it’s a vibe) and don’t be late crossing off the next task on your to-do list.

Now that you’re ready to take control of your productivity, a stress free shopping experience awaits.
