🌟 Day 21: Enjoy Your Food and Life 🌟
Life is short—choose to spend it in healthy ways that make you feel great.�Create daily and weekly rituals that build long-term wellness. Eat fresh, nutritious food that nourishes both your soul and body. Move in ways that inspire and bring you joy. Get outside and connect with family and friends—you deserve to feel amazing!

A 2023 study published in Alternative Therapies found that hypnotherapy helped over-weight individuals develop healthier eating habits, feel better emotionally, and significantly reduce their body mass index. Hypnotherapy is effective, has no side effects, and delivers lasting results.

Remember, if you have a day (or two!) where you don’t make the best choices, simply reset your intention and start fresh.

🍳 Day 17: Cook Your Plan 🍳
Cooking is a skill—and like any skill, it gets easier and more enjoyable the more you practice. Often, the simplest meals turn out to be the tastiest!
If you’re not sure where to start, YouTube has tons of step-by-step tutorials, or you could try a cooking class. My husband and I love taking classes at and . Our cooking class date nights are a fun way to learn new skills, enjoy each other’s company, and savor what we create—all for about the price of a dinner out.
✨ Cooking at home not only nourishes your body but also brings joy and connection. Ready to get cooking?

🛒 Day 16: Shop Your Plan 🛒
I often start my weekly meal planning based on what’s in season. Sometimes I order fruits and veggies from , or I visit Calgary’s farmers markets.
There’s nothing like fresh, local summer produce straight from Calgary’s growers! From juicy strawberries and sweet corn to crisp cucumbers and vibrant tomatoes, summer offers an amazing variety of flavours and nutrients.
Shopping seasonal means:�✅ Fresher, tastier food�✅ Supporting local farmers�✅ Lower environmental impact�✅ More affordable produce
Right now, Calgary’s summer markets are bursting with:�🍒 Berries�🥦 Broccoli & greens�🥕 Carrots�🌶️ Peppers�🥒 Zucchini�🍆 Eggplant
Once I have my produce, I find recipes and make my meal plan accordingly. Any veggies that aren’t eaten during the week go into a big pot of soup—zero waste, full flavour!
What’s your favourite Calgary summer fruit or veggie? Let me know below! 👇🌽🍓

📅 Day 15: Make a Plan for Eating 📅
Planning your meals is a simple but powerful way to fuel your body with healthy choices—without the daily stress of deciding what to eat.
Instead of thinking about meals every single day, try planning once a week. Aim for three balanced meals daily—and if you like snacks, include healthy options in your plan too.
I use a meal planning app loaded with recipes that automatically creates my shopping list—but a good old pen and paper work just as well. Every week, my sweetie pie and I sit down to talk about what we want to eat. When our kids were at home, they helped plan and even cooked some days!
We pick quick and easy meals for busy weekdays, often making extra so leftovers become lunch the next day.
When we skip planning, we tend to scramble and grab ultra-processed or greasy takeout. Sure, it tastes good in the moment—but afterwards, I always feel sluggish and blah.
Once you get in the habit of planning meals, life gets easier—and you’ll feel better eating delicious, wholesome food.
✨ Give it a try this week—your future self will thank you!

🍨 Day 14: Have a Treat 🍨
Healthy eating isn’t about deprivation—it’s about balance.�If you constantly deny yourself the things you love, your subconscious mind may eventually rebel… and that’s when bingeing often sneaks in.
Instead, choose a treat you truly enjoy, and make it part of your week—on purpose and guilt-free.
For me, it’s ice cream.�Once a week, my sweetie takes me for a date. I’ve heard all their flavours are amazing, but I’m all about the melted chocolate. It’s our ritual—and I love every bite.
✨ Look forward to it. Savor it. No guilt necessary.
What’s your special treat? Drop it below! 🍫🍓🍷🍩

🫐 Day 13: Feast Your Senses 🫐
Variety truly is the spice of life—especially when it comes to food!�Eating a rainbow of fruits and vegetables isn’t just beautiful—it’s nutritional gold.
🌈 Each colour brings unique health benefits:�
🧡 Orange = beta-carotene (hello, glowing skin!)�
❤️ Red = antioxidants (heart health)�
💚 Green = fiber & folate (digestive and immune support)
💛 Yellow = vitamin C (immune boost)�
💙 Blue/Purple = polyphenols (brain and memory support)

By mixing up your colours, you nourish your body and your taste buds.
How many colours have you eaten today? Drop them below! 👇

🍩 Day 12: Manage Your Sugar Intake 🍩
Sugar is sneaky—and super addictive.�The more you eat, the more you crave. In fact, sugar is 5–10 times more energy-dense than fruit, but without the fibre and nutrients.

Over time, too much sugar contributes to:�
🦷 Cavities�⚖️ Weight gain�
💔 Chronic health issues�
😴 Poor sleep—which leads to even more sugar cravings the next day. It's a vicious cycle.

Instead of grabbing a sugary treat, try an afternoon ritual like herbal tea. My go-to? Bengal Spice—naturally sweet and totally satisfying.
✨ Swap added sugar for fruit, tea, or a mindful moment.
What’s your relationship with sugar? Do you notice the cravings?
