REAL TALK
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
IG often gives us the impression that everything is always cute & glamourous, and I am here to remind you IT IS NOT.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I for one, am super overwhelmed and experiencing some burn out.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes I love creating content and showing up everyday for my clients, audience and business, and sometimes THE STRUGGLE IS REAL.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here's how I'm handling it:
- Sharing the struggle because I know I'm not alone!
- Being grateful for the overwhelm, because it is the abundance I asked for
- Giving myself grace because the only one setting expectations here is ME
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How do you handle overwhelm? 🤯👇

DO YOU HAVE A FOOD SENSITIVITY?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
ARE YOU….
👉Alllllways tired?
👉Chronically bloated, gassy, constipated or beelining it to the bathroom?
👉Dealing with acne or other skin problems, like eczema or rashes?
👉Coughing, sneezing or congested on the regular?
👉Frequently suffering from headaches or migraines?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If any of this sounds familiar, investigating whether or not you have a FOOD SENSITIVITY is a great place to start.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can do this with some basic trial & error in your diet, or better yet, do a full ELIMINATION DIET and clear up the confusion more efficiently 👌
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If this all feels too overwhelming to tackle on your own, shoot me a DM and I can support your exploration!

DO YOU LOVE YOURSELF?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In honour of the week of looOOoove 💕, my focus is how we can turn that inward.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, do you love yourself?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Really, ask yourself.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What evidence is there that you do?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How I KNOW I love myself:
🖤 I frequently set and hold boundaries (with myself & others)
🖤 I have DAILY self-care rituals
🖤 I show myself and my body grace & compassion rather than punishment & guilt
🖤 I'll do whatever it takes to live in alignment with what my highest self wants
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How do you show yourself love? 👇

THE TIME TO CHANGE HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT YOURSELF IS NOW
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You do not want to wake up 65 years old and STILL feel shameful and unhappy with your body.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It isn't a diet that you need.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It isn't a harder work-out.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's what you BELIEVE about your body that has to change.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So ask yourself, "what do I believe about bodies that makes me continually unhappy with my own"?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You aren't alone. Let's show each other some support ladies - who has "been there" ? 🙋‍♀️

I have a confession to make…
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀..I feel afraid and uncomfortable EVERY.FRIGGIN.DAY.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was doing a journal exercise where I asked myself: "what would future Angell say to you right now"?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The answer was pretty clear: these feelings of fear are a sign that you are doing something BIG, and something even bigger is headed your way.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Who else is so dang scared and uncomfortable? Drop me a 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

6 WAYS TO EAT CLEAN ON A BUDGET
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Use the Clean Fifteen and Dirty Dozen lists to choose which produce to buy organic and which to buy conventional (link in bio)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Make specialty items yourself! It costs less and generally you will make a much larger quanity. Things like hummus, cashew cheeses and bone broth are great examples.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Plan out your meals before grocery shopping. This will save on waste!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. Freeze anything you don't think you can eat before it goes bad. This goes for leftovers that you are sick of eating or veggies that might turn before you use them.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5. Eat whole food. Packaged food is convenient but you are definitely paying a mark-up on it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
6. Eat less animal protein. Local grass-fed or pastured organic meat is by far the most expensive item on your list so rather than eating it daily, cut back to a couple times/week.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'll dig into this a bit more in my stories so head there for more 👀

DO YOU TRUST YOURSELF WITH FOOD?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉You're afraid if you don't have structure & restriction around your diet, you will go off the rails
👉Cravings control your day
👉Stress and high emotion cause you to black-out eat
👉You live by an "all or nothing" mentality when it comes to diet, lifestyle and exercise
👉You often feel guilt after eating
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
THERE IS ANOTHER WAY!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✔️You eat when you are hungry and stop when you are full
✔️You listen to what your body wants and find that it isn't a box of cookies every night
✔️Food nourishes you and makes you feel good, but doesn't CONTROL you
✔️You address your emotions through other means than eating them
✔️You send yourself and your body compassion, rather than guilt
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do I sound like I am talking some straight-up🧚‍♀️BS? Believe me, it is possible for you.

SLEEP SUPPLEMENTS 💤
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sleep is a complicated cat, so I am not about to make any broad generalizations about what supplements you should be taking. Everyone's needs and deficiencies are different!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That being said, here are some options to consider alongside your Doc:
😴 Magnesium
We are commonly short on this important mineral, which relaxes your nerves and muscles.
😴 5-HTP
This is made from the amino acid tryptophan, and is a precursor to serotonin which is important for sleep.
😴 Kava
This herb is a natural sedative that influences GABA and serotonin - key neurotransmitters involved in sleep!
😴 Melatonin
This is our sleep hormone, and is secreted by the pineal gland as darkness falls. However, due to lifestyle factors, often our melatonin production is suppressed. In this case a low dose supplement may help you sleep (although I still recommend addressing the lifestyle factors).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What helps you to sleep at night?

How it's going so far...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One month ago, I felt as though the ground beneath my feet fell out.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In one moment, everything in my life changed...and I didn't see it coming.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This experience humbly reminded me of something my good friend has always said to me:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"EVERYTHING can change in a day"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Drop a 🙋‍♀️ if you find hope in this simple thought.
