Make peace with your plate
"Feed me. Nourish me. Love me." said your body to your brain
Healthy Eating can be life changing for your body and your brain.
Healthy Eating follows similar guidelines for many but will be different for a few.
We are all individuals with our own special needs. Eating 30g of nuts a day reduces your risk of death (from any cause) by 20% ...unless of course you are anaphylactic to nuts. Some thrive on Veganism, others absolutely need meat. Gluten and dairy sicken some and others can not stomach legumes.
The meal plan that works for bestie may not be right for you. We are all different.
Eating real food most of the time can be performance enhancing, physically and mentally. It can make you feel vital and energised. It can help you concentrate and focus. It can stave off depression and anxiety. Conversely - poor nutrition can make you feel sluggish, moody and flat. Caffeine can exacerbate anxiety. Alcohol can increase your risk of depression. Excessive consumption of most things will just make you feel sluggish and
Eating consciously is like meditating.
For some it's a synch.
For Others it's a bit of a struggle
And then there are those who live in blissful unawareness.
To be fair, the link between diet and health is still often discounted, even though there is ample science backed research and evidence
If you would like to talk about getting the best from mind and body, I'd love to talk with you.

For some it's a synch.
- They are naturally drawn to fresh vegetables and fruit, avocados, nuts and olive oil.
- They never over-eat. They drink water instead of wine.
- They run marathons and climb mountains BEFORE you even wake up.
- They are rewarded with sharp minds and glistening muscles, glowing skin and shiny hair.
- They are aware of the link between food and feeling fabulous and they follow food plans like some follow religion.
- They have been enlightened.
For Others it's a bit of a struggle
- They too, have seen and felt the rewards that come with healthy eating.
- They know WHAT to eat and what makes them feel great, and they think they should eat perfectly all of the time.
- They can be committed but their commitment is not stuck on with super glue.
- They become distracted by worries, self doubt and unreal expectations. and
- They turn to food and/ or alcohol for comfort.
- They punish themselves for "falling off the wagon" creating more self doubt.
- It becomes a vicious circle.
And then there are those who live in blissful unawareness.
- They eat without giving it much thought.
- They might put up with niggling or even nagging digestive (and other health) issues never lining them to what they put into their bodies.
- There is not self punishment because there are not expectations.
- There may not be much reward either.
