![How To Eat Healthy on a Budget
This video is about how to eat healthy (mostly whole, clean, unprocessed foods) on a budget and stick with the routine! Its more about how than what you should eat, because depending on your preferences, you could eat a variety of different foods and feel great. These are 8 tips I use to keep myself in check and not destroy my wallet =].
Tips:
1. Buy things that take time to make, and make the rest at home
-I like to buy sprouted grain bread, butter, coconut oil and quality condiments/sauces
-I make things like almond butter, broths (stock), juice and veggie side dishes that I freeze
2. Keep delicious snacks in the house that are healthier than most processed snacks to keep in your routine
-I like 70% dark chocolate, seaweed chips (no canola), almond butter on strawberries (or apples) and pineapple, vanilla and cinnamon cereal
3. I buy local conventional if I cannot afford organic, which is usually ridiculously expensive
-Check EWGs Dirty Dozen and Clean 15
4. Make a meal plan!
-This is so important because making a meal plan is the first step to adapting a new lifestyle choice
5. Never let anything go to waste
-I use aging produce to make soups and smoothies in my blender
6. Do some research about the stores and producers in your area. Look for deals and buy in bulk.
-I like to buy produce boxes and meat packs for a cheaper price from places that source their food responsibly
-This also helps you find new foods and try new recipes
7. Prepare meals and put them in the freezer if youre busy and dont have time to always cook elaborate meals, keep a food journal and make lists of what you have in your fridge so nothing gets forgotten
-Frozen food is the next best thing to fresh, the cells rupture but the majority of the nutrition is in tact
8. Get a crock pot and use it!
-I like to throw bay leaves, veggies, honey, mustard, stock, protein, salt and pepper. Simple and always delicious

I used a tapered curling iron on my hair that is 1 inch at the base and .5 inch at the tip, I am not wearing extensions =]

![Get UNReady With Me! | My Bedtime Routine
Before I start listin away I just wanted to say to all of the people who have thanked me for something that you guys help me every day with your love and suggestions. This comment section is so full of love, realness and positivity which is hard so come across in this day and age, it is everything I could ever ask for and more in a community of people. So thank YOU, you guys mean the world to me.
1. What I eat before bed:
Started off at Golden Aura in Kitsalano for some mostly raw, vegan foodies!
I had the symbiotic slaw, raspberry kombucha and famous veggie sandwich! My boyfriend described it as the best healthy food Ive ever had! hehe. I dont typically eat out on an average night, but if I want to get a good nights sleep, lighter, more digestible food is better.
2. What I like to wear:
My big robe, thanks mom!
3. My cleanser and exfoliant:
French Green Clay Konjac Sponge with Juice Beauty Blemish Clearing Cleanser on top, the Niko organic cleanser is optional, I just use it because I have it. I really enjoy the way the sponge exfoliates. I do throw in an oil cleanse every couple of washes!
4. Toner:
Tone with diluted apple cider vinegar, the konjac sponge is alkaline, so I throw something acidic on after so the results are not short-lived! Remember your skins acid mantle!
5. Favourite eye cream:
I use the Pai Organic Skincare Echium Eye Cream, I absolutely butchered the pronunciation haha!
6. Best all-around moisturizer:
I use avocado oil all over my face, the brand I use is Olivado
7. Bed time drink:
My herbal tea is made from lemon balm herb, linden flower, chamomile flower, lavender flowers, passion flower and skullcap herb. It tastes great and it really helps me sleep, I am prone to anxiety so its a great thing for me!
8. Midnight snack:
Brazil nuts, cherries, blueberries, sautéed mushrooms and carrots with pepper
9. Winding down:
I put on a record! I picked Either/or by Elliott Smith! My favourite song on it is Between the Bars
10. Right before bed:
Brush my teeth with Jason toothpaste, dont forget to floss, I just use any old floss around the house, no preference!
VIDEO FAQ:
Question: Do you still do the oil cleansing method?
Answer: Yes, but only a few times a week now. I had no issues with the OCM, but I like trying now things. I also prefer to switch up my skincare to something that feels lighter in the summer! I have very oily skin and no air conditioning, so anything that coats my skin rather than instantly removes feels uncomfortable in the summer!
Comment: Rantau Abang Terengganu
Answer: Hell yeah!
Question: I cant find the konjac sponge for 5 dollars, only for 10.
Answer: Im an idiot, I mustve not noticed it was on sale because I cant find it for 5 dollars anymore either. So so sorry.
Question: Will my acne scars go away?
Answer: If your skin is anything like mine, they will (if they are in the form of hyperpigmentation, my acne changed my skin texture but did not leave any big indents). Take good care of your skin and body, find gentle products, fruit/veggie masks and oils that your skin loves, and the pigments will fade over time. Be patient, some of my scars went away after a few weeks, and some took a few years to completely go away.
Question: Isnt it the worst thing in the world to eat before bed?
Answer: I believe that is a myth that has been debunked by scientific evidence, I could be wrong though. Your body would continue to digest things even if you were hanging upside-down, peristalsis is not contingent on gravity, and neither are the enzymes that break food down. That said, I prefer eating very light before bed because I sleep better if I dont have a full, grumpy stomach!
Question: What temperature of water do you use to wash your face?
Answer: : Lukewarm!
Love and light,
Kassie
