Meet Carissa Ferro a Certified Eating Psychology Coach

Posted on February 4, 2015 | Filed Under: Real Moms of the SFV | Tags: Agoura Hills Center for Eating Recovery, Carissa Ferro, Certified Eating Psychology Coach |

I’ve known Carissa for several months, as our children go to the same elementary school. Recently I heard her give a powerful presentation about the psychology of eating, specifically about how our relationship to food affects our body image & interactions with others. As I looked around the room, I could tell that her speech resonated with many of the women. As a Certified Eating Psychology Coach at The Center for Eating Recovery in Agoura … [Read more...]

Drazil Kids Tea: A Healthy Drink Option for Kids

Posted on February 2, 2015 | Filed Under: Mommy Stuff | Tags: Drazil Kids Tea, healthy drink options for kids, kids fruit juice drinks | 8 Comments

If my daughter had it her way, she would drink lemonade or a juice box with her lunch every day at school. On the days when she gets hot lunch, she has the choice of milk or water. However when I pack her lunch, I include a reusable water bottle or juice pouch. The juice pouch makes it so convenient to throw into her backpack. I try to pick the ones with a low sugar content & it’s not always easy to find healthy drink options for my kiddo in … [Read more...]

We were just as excited as the kids to watch this performance inside of the brand new Valley Performing Arts Center … [Read more...]

Does this sound familiar? You are rushing around the house, trying to get out of the door for school, work, etc. & you can’t find your car or house keys. After digging through your purse, checking out the usual hiding places – that entry way table with the mail piled up, the kitchen  or even the kids playroom (hey, it happens!), then you finally find them. This has happened to me countless times & I’m sure to you as well. Wouldn’t it be … [Read more...]

Posted on January 23, 2015 | Filed Under: Fitness | Tags: Disneyland, runDisney, Star Wars 10k, Star Wars Half Marathon | 18 Comments

Yoda once said, “Speed Matters Not, young padawan.” Ok, so maybe he didn’t say that & furthermore, I’m not young or a padawan BUT I did find this amazing shirt at the runDisney Health & Fitness Expo last Friday. My original race outfit for the Inaugural Star Wars 10k was running pants & a Star Wars shirt. However when I saw this shirt at the Raw Threads booth, I just knew that I had to have it! I'm not a fast runner, more of a … [Read more...]
