Matcha is really having a moment, and I am here for it!
Matcha has so many great health benefits and can also be a great alternative to coffee. Swipe to read more ->
Be aware though that a lot of matcha items on the market can be very high in sugar. The best way to consume matcha is finding a good quality powder (with no additives) and preparing with warm water, milk of choice and even a little honey.

Building and maintaining lean muscle tissue may be the missing link in your weight loss journey!
More lean muscle tissue = increased metabolism = increased daily energy expenditure

As we approach the new year I just want remind you all that you do not need to go out with a bang.
Infact I personally will be ending this year slowly, gently and intentionally with my beautiful babies.
Focussing on nourishing foods, hydration, gentle movement, my bare feet on the grass & a good book.
I don't have any huge resolutions or goals for the new year either. I will be marrying the love of my life ๐Ÿฅน and that is everything and more. No hustle, no to do list.
For me, all I want from 2026 is genuine connection, self love, health & presence.
So I invite anyone who resonates with this to also give yourself grace in this new year. Slow down and really let yourself soak in life ๐Ÿƒ

The Phone Pad ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ“ต
Try this 1 easy hack to add HOURS of time back to your day as well as more patience, space and presence to be with the ones you love these holidays. We all know how bad phones are for our mental health, so put it away through the day and instead get yourself a phone pad!
Anytime you feel drawn to go on your phone
- to reply to messages
- google a question you have
- add something to your shopping cart
Instead โžก๏ธ write it on your phone pad.
Then give yourself a window, ideally an hour a day, where you jump on your phone and tick off that list.
This is going to stop you from wandering over to socials, following the link from an ad, and getting falling into a spiral of distractions.
Support your nervous system and soak up these special times while they are here ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘งโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆ

Let's talk energy yield and fats! Do you know how much energy you get from each macronutrient?
A gram of protein or carbohydrate will give you 4 calories, whereas a gram of fat will give you 9 calories. Fat is denser than carbs and protein, but it is also a critical component of a healthy diet.
Now, let's bust a common myth: "fat makes us fat". What does lead to weight gain is an excess of energy. If we are eating an excess of energy and we don't use that energy up, this is what contributes to weight gain.
BUT.. those small amounts of healthy fats in your daily diet are incredibly important for our health!
- fat insulates and protects our organs
- fat keeps us full
- fat helps us produce hormones
- fat helps us absorb vitamins
Fats are really important, and we don't want to cut them out of our diet because we are trying to lose weight.
Opt for small amounts of healthy fats through the day
๐Ÿ’š a tablespoon of olive oil
๐Ÿ’š a tablespoon of butter
๐Ÿ’š 1/4 an avocado
๐Ÿ’š 30g cheese
๐Ÿ’š 30g nuts
๐Ÿ’š 2 tsp nut butter
๐Ÿ’š 2 tsp mayo or sour cream
One last thing.. fats are delicious additions to our meals!

There's no lack of information on food and nutrition. And certainly, no lack of access to it. But where most people do struggle, is with implementation.
You can know all about the latest studies, diets and superfoods, but still see no progress in your journey unless you also focus on these 5 things.
1) Your mindset. Focussing on what you can add in rather than take out. Working from an abundance mindset rather than a deprivation mindset is going to be so much more efficient.
2) Taking that first step, and yes, it is hard! Whether it's going to the gym, meal prepping or going for a walk, the first step is always the hardest. It gets easier, but you do need to start.
3) Getting used to being uncomfortable. Waking up at 6am is going to be uncomfortable at first. Putting down your phone at night is also going to be uncomfortable. You are pushing against what you are used to. Remember that outside your comfort zone is where growth happens.
4. You prioritise micro changes, every day. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Trying to overhaul your whole diet & lifestyle in one go is just going to overwhelm you and likely fall apart before you establish long term habits. Slow and steady wins the race.
5. You make it realistic for you, and you only. A habit that works for one person isn't necessarily going to work for the next. Are you a mum? A shift worker? A competitive athlete or maybe you struggle with your mental health? We all have such different goals, needs and strengths and we need to consider what is the most realistic path for us as an individual.
