Rainy days have a special kind of calm. They remind me to pause, breathe, and begin again — like nature’s way of saying it’s okay to start fresh. ☔️
There’s something about the sound of rain that feels cleansing for the air, the earth, and the mind.

Have a wonderful week 😘

Beautiful hike today — 8 km over 2½ hours — just what I needed to clear my mind and reconnect with nature. 🦘🌳
Spotted kangaroos, wildflowers, and even a little rabbit along the way.
With everything happening in the world right now, especially with the hostages, this quiet time outdoors reminded me how healing nature can be — to breathe, reflect, and find a little calm in the chaos.

What Does It Really Mean to “Just Eat Real Food”?

In a world where everything’s fast — from meals to messages — it’s so easy to lean on convenience foods. But I’ve found that slowing down and choosing real food makes an incredible difference to how we feel, think, and live.

So, what does “real food” actually mean?

🥦 1. Real Food = Whole Food
Real food is as close to nature as possible. Think colourful vegetables, fresh fruits, legumes, whole grains, lean proteins, nuts, and seeds. It’s food without the unnecessary extras — no artificial additives, no refined sugars, no mystery ingredients.

🍚 2. Minimally Processed Is Best
Not all processing is bad — chopping, cooking, or fermenting can actually make food easier to digest and absorb. But the closer your food is to how it’s grown or raised, the better. For example, brown rice over instant rice, or grilled chicken instead of chicken nuggets.

💪 3. Nutrient-Rich, Not Calorie-Heavy
Real food is naturally rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that your body knows how to use. Unlike ultra-processed foods, it nourishes you deeply rather than just filling you up.

When you choose real food, you’re not just eating to survive — you’re eating to thrive.
At Naomi’s Healthful Habits, I encourage you to reconnect with food in its most natural, delicious, and nourishing form.

Let’s make it simple: just eat real food.

Healthy Coconut Ice Cream 🥥🍦
Here’s a wholesome twist on a classic treat — creamy, smooth, and made with just a few real ingredients. No refined sugar, no additives, just pure, healthful goodness.

Ingredients:
• 1 can (400 ml) full-fat coconut milk
• 1 ½ tbsp raw honey or pure maple syrup
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• A pinch of sea salt
• Optional: shredded coconut or a spoon of nut butter

Method:
Blend everything until smooth, chill for 1–2 hours, then churn (or freeze and stir every 30–45 mins).
Serve with fresh berries or a drizzle of dark chocolate.

💛 tip: For extra gut-loving benefits, mix in a spoonful of coconut kefir before freezing — it adds a gentle tang and a probiotic boost.

A nourishing way to enjoy ice cream, the natural way.

World Mental Health Day 💚 is Friday, 10 October 2025.
A healthy mind and a healthy body go hand in hand. My simple plan today is to breathe slowly before meals, enjoy a mindful walk, eat real, colourful food, check in with someone I care about, and prioritise sleep. Tiny choices add up. If you’re struggling, please reach out—to a friend, your GP, or a helpline. You matter.

☀️ A Healthier Way to Protect Your Skin

With the warmer weather and sunshine returning, I’ve started using a healthier version of sunscreen — the Little Urchin Natural Zinc Stick SPF 50+.

What I love most about it:
🌿 Made with natural zinc oxide (22.75%) — no chemical filters.
🪸 Reef and ocean safe, so it’s kind to marine life.
🤍 Fragrance-free and gentle for sensitive skin.
🇦🇺 Australian made and water-resistant.

It gives broad-spectrum protection while being safe for both your skin and the planet — a perfect match for those who prefer natural, conscious living.

Your skin is your largest organ — protect it, but choose products that also protect your health and the environment.

Did you know kangaroo is one of the leanest, most nutrient-dense meats you can eat?

Here’s why I love it:

High in protein, low in fat – perfect for supporting strong muscles and steady energy.

Rich in iron and B12 – helps fight fatigue and supports a healthy nervous system.

Naturally sustainable – kangaroos are wild, free-range and grass-fed, making this a climate-friendly red meat choice.

Omega-3s in red meat – yes, kangaroo even provides heart-healthy fatty acids!

Cooking tip: Because it’s so lean, it’s best served medium-rare. Quick sear in extra virgin olive oil, add garlic, rosemary, or even native herbs like wattleseed, and enjoy that rich flavour.

Kangaroo mince in burgers or meatballs with lots of veggies mixed through – simple, delicious, and nourishing.

There’s something so calming about fresh blooms. These Iceland poppies remind me how nature effortlessly brings colour, joy, and lightness into our days. 🌼
Just like these petals, we too can open up, soften, and embrace the beauty in simple moments.

Surround yourself with what uplifts you — whether it’s flowers, sunshine, a nourishing meal, or time in nature.

🥩🐟 Why I Limit Smoked & Cured Meats

I often get asked about foods like smoked salmon, deli meats, or cured sausages. While they can be tasty and convenient, they come with a few things to be mindful of:

High in sodium – which can contribute to fluid retention and higher blood pressure.
  Added preservatives – nitrates, nitrites and other additives are often used in curing and smoking.
  Histamine levels – smoked and cured foods are naturally high in histamines, which can trigger reactions in some people (hot flushes, skin flare-ups, migraines).
  Potential contaminants – the smoking process can create compounds that may not support long-term health.

That doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy them once in a while – but they’re not ideal as everyday proteins. Instead, I encourage fresh, minimally processed sources of protein like fish, eggs, legumes, lean meats, and plant-based options.

It’s all about balance, awareness, and choosing what truly nourishes your body.
