Revive with Rivkah

I’ve been sharing till now a lot about balanced living. Balance in its definition, is an even distribution of different elements. It is a beautiful thing to achieve, and we may have moments of it (or meals with it 🥗) but it can feel difficult to implement all the time.

I’ve been looking for a new word to incorporate that feels more attainable, and love the idea of ‘integration’ which is combining one thing with another so that it becomes whole, not necessarily in equal amounts.

One of the reasons this shift in perspective speaks to me is because holistically the mind, body and soul are connected as one entity. The thought that we skipped something or didn’t do everything equally at the end of the day, is not upsetting because the things we did do, nurture the elements we didn’t yet get to, as they’re all part of a wholesome picture.
Also, letting go of the thought that living holistically has to be balanced all the time, and ‘integrating’ action steps that fuel us with energy and motivation in our every day, feels like our personal health goals are close and within our reach.
How does this perspective feel to you?

Let me know if you plan to integrate this delicious homemade OAT MILK:
Ingredients
* 1/2 cup whole rolled oats
* 3 cups water
* 2 teaspoons maple syrup (or more for sweeter milk)
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* Pinch kosher salt
Directions:
Combine the oats, water, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt in a blender and blend for 30 seconds.
Place a fine strainer over a large mason jar and strain the milk without pushing any excess pulp through the straine
Add more maple syrup, to taste, if desired. Chill overnight. If you want to drink your oat milk right away, add ice.
