Do you feel like there’s never enough time to get enough sleep or to make a proper breakfast? Now summer is ending, and winter is looming AND, for many of you, kiddies are off to school. So, our sleep is about to change! Hey, I’ve got 10 Ways to Upgrade Your Sleep Routine TODAY!!
If you’re a follower on my Instagram page, you would have had the chance to see my 3-part post of daily health rituals or what I call “self-care Sundays”. The image above was directed to the more physical practice that I hold every Sunday night and many of the days during the week.
Those of you might remember that I ate a primarily plant-based diet (ie. vegan) for about 5-6 years. It was actually one of the best decisions as my body was dying for nutrients that a 100% plant-based eating lifestyle can provide. At the time, my stress levels were overflowing and the boost of vitamins and nutrients were helpful in healing.
Hi there loves!
Thank you for the great response a few weeks back on post about “Body Love” and the importance of finding a healthy connection with your body. On the heels of that discussion, I joined a coaching group that was created to help health practitioners like myself work with clients that struggle with unhealthy patterns of eating.
Hi there!
I’m so glad that you stopped by today because I have such an important message and story to share. In fact, it’s something that I haven’t shared before. But, first, you all know that I’ve been working on my nutrition certification, right? Getting up in the early mornings (before my day job) to help develop plans for women to address and support their health concerns is what drives me! I just love it.
Have you ever felt “burned-out”? Maybe you can’t get to sleep or you can’t wake up in the morning. Maybe you’re constantly sluggish and the smallest issue becomes a REALLY BIG DEAL. I know that I have. In fact, I’m suffering with it myself as we speak.
I’ve been delving back into my nutrition books to learn more about this very common, yet rarely spoken about “burn-out” syndrome called adrenal fatigue.
Well hello there! Sooooo, I’ve ended a crazy crazy week. How about yourself? I’m always about the honesty and I don’t shy away from sharing. I’m struggling with my own health right now mostly based on my managing (or rather, not managing) the stress in my life. I’m doing my best by getting rest, eating as much plant-forward as possible, and getting low impact exercise like yoga, and walking. You will love my recent post where I talk about my practice of self-care and I share my Coconut Avocado Banana Nourishing Hair & Face Mask (PS. it’s all edible too!).
In my early 30’s, I suffered from high anxiety as a result of my high-stress, corporate job. This also impacted my digestion where I ended up bloated and uncomfortable after most meals. As a result, in my late 20’s and early 30’s I suffered with skin issues that I thought was only meant for teenagers. My sleep was also impacted where I slept restlessly and I woke up lethargic, and with low energy. Coffee became my best friend. Does that sound like you?
Happy weekend all!
It was a crazy week for me. I’m always is trying to manage my day job with my nutrition studies along with keeping this website up to date with amazing recipes such as this one! For me, balance is essential but it can often be put on the back burner when I’m stuck in the chaos of life. Do you know what I mean?
