What exactly is a power bite? Oh my goodness. These delightful little rounds of deliciousness are packed with healthy ingredients that will POWER through those middle of the day dips!

Plus, those oats are like little cholesterol cleaner uppers. . . they work magic on cleaning it out of our cardio systems! Awesome 🙂
Ummmm and can I say they are way better for your body that the usual cup of soda that most people grab for when those low energy dips hit!
Here’s a few more varieties for you to enjoy… Raw Bars or Bites are simply different shapes for the same type of raw bar recipe- Berry Medley Raw Bars, Chocolate Trail Mix Power Bites, Almond Joy Power Bites, Dark Chocolate Raw Bars, Healthy Power Bites, and Almond Power Bites. Any of these recipes can be pressed into a pan to make bars or rolled into balls to make bites! Any shape you make them just put them in an air tight container and then into the fridge… they’ll easily keep for up to week. (if they stay around that long)

Have a beautiful Friday!
The word Power promotes an image of strength to many of us. We love the word power and seek after whatever is out there that can give us power. In my workouts I seek power in my running through distance, speed, and interval workouts. I add power through plyos and a solid strength training session. I tend to forget about the added power that flexibility can bring, having muscles that can bend and move with you versus snap because they are so tight. So today we are talking about power through yoga, 5 yoga moves every body should be practicing.
4) Reclined Easy Twist: This restorative pose helps ease back and neck tension, calms the mind and stretches the torso muscles.
