One of the biggest battles we have is knowing what to advocate for when it comes to our health!

So here is a little cheat sheet of the most common blood test I request my clients get done with their family doctor!

Also, review your results carefully. If you are at the bottom range of “normal” for iron levels (for example) that means you need some extra support in that area to feel your best!

You’re doing enough, I already know that about you. Our generation was taught that our worth was based on productivity.

This is the essence of hustle culture.

Prioritizing ‘doing more’ over mental health, sleep, and rest which has deep roots in capitalism.

I absolutely love this by in resin.

I know you WANT them to eat a variety of foods. But if we want to actually help them to learn to eat new foods, we need to stop MAKING them eat new foods.

I also want you to know holiday meals are actually REALLY tough for kids as they are often unfamiliar foods.

So take a deep breathe and let them decide what they eat tonight. This is how we teach them to listen to their body and honor their inner wisdom. Sometimes they will only eat bread and that’s ok too ❤️

Anyone else feel like this should be in EVERY single doctor’s office in the world? Especially pediatrician’s offices?

I know for myself one of my earlier body shaming moments came from a (well-meaning) doctor asking if I had been “eating too many Christmas cookies”. That has stayed with me for over 30 years.

FaceTime’d my sis and her 10 month old baby girl this morning I can’t stop thinking about how having a “dad bod” is more socially acceptable than a postpartum body when we are LITERALLY the ones who have the baby.

“Dad bods” are often portrayed as adorable, sexy and attractive. When I looked up WHY it’s because “dad bods are associated with attractive personality traits — like a strong sense of humor, a down-to-earth mentality, and a healthy respect for work/life balance”.

While women with “mom bods” are judged harshly for their post partum bodies and thought “lazy” if they don’t lose weight quickly enough. The term “mom bod” is also often associated with being unfit or unattractive. No one is relating our stretch marks, love handles, dimples or soft bellies with positive personality traits.

Does anyone else see the irony in this? It’s pretty freakin’ backwards don’t you think? 😵‍💫

Can you imagine if we heard this from our moms growing up? 🥹

And yet, I know that they were doing the best they could.

We can hold deep space for the wounds our moms had about their own bodies without holding them for ourselves.

Healing means reparenting ourselves to meet our own emotional or physical needs that went unmet in childhood.

Feeding kids can be beyond frustrating. But layering on guilt, shame or pressure (all the things WE experienced as kids) can just make things worse!

So try some of these key phrases instead and see if it helps to support your child to come to the table more open and relaxed around eating. This is the first step towards eating more diversity!

Which phrase your fav? 1, 2 or 3? Which do you wish you heard as a child? Comment below 👇

Teaching kids to break foods into two groups whether it is:⁠
🥑Healthy vs Unhealthy⁠
🍎Good vs Bad⁠
🍦Every day foods vs sometimes foods⁠
Is teaching them how to diet 💔⁠
⁠
Regardless of whether this is in preschool, elementary school, high school or at home with parents. ⁠
⁠
Food is neutral until it is labelled otherwise and lessons like these can be harmful. They don’t change eating patterns; they foster guilt, shame, and judgement of others even if that is never their intention!⁠
⁠
So what can we do instead? Call food by it’s name: chocolate (instead of junk food), broccoli (instead of healthy food). It seems so simple but it can make ALL the difference. Yes some foods have more nutrients than others. But there are SO many other reasons why we eat: joy, pleasure, connection to our culture, celebration, etc. Let’s help our kids feel good about eating all foods 💕

⚠️”They don’t look like they have an eating disorder”
—Is one of the most harmful phrases I’ve ever heard. ⁠
⁠
Eating disorders don’t have a “look”. They affect all genders, socioeconomic ranges, ages, ethnicities, etc. ⁠
⁠
Stereotypical images using extremely thin, affluent white women as the “image” of an eating disorder is just incorrect. It also has lead to underdiagnoses of men, trans people, marginalized groups, people of colour and those in larger bodies. ⁠
⁠
It is also frightening that eating disorder behaviours are often CELEBRATED in people living in larger bodies. This. Is. Just. Wrong. ⁠

Many parents come to me saying their “child is just trying to get healthy” so I have also included some possible signs your child is at risk.
⁠
This week is “International Eating Disorder Awareness Week” and the goal share information & resources about eating disorders and to provide hope, support, and visibility to those affected 💜⁠

“All they want to eat is Goldfish!”

I know it feel frustrating. All they want is “processed” and packaged foods. But it actually makes a lot of sense. They are ALWAYS the same. Predictable. Same taste, texture, smell, etc. and kids LOVE predictability along with routine.

Have you noticed the variability in fresh foods? These blueberries for example; some are juicy and some are sour. They look different. Different sizes and shapes.
Which makes fresh foods more challenging to selective eaters.

So here are a few ideas to try!

📌Don’t forget to SAVE THIS POST to help remind you of what to do when your kiddo loves the packaged snacks. Comment below 👇
